@ISibboI we count that as a "Linux distribution", not a separate OS. I will admit that the distinction between them is not crystal clear and that shows in the slide...
I have noticed that the quickest way to get information on the internet is to post incomplete or incorrect information. Although in your case I can't imagine anyone considers 106 OS's incomplete.
PalmOS, OS-9, DEC TOPS-10/TENEX, DEC TOPS-20, MIT ITS, Interdata OS/32, Fujitsu-Siemens BS2000, CrayOS (before UNICOS), DEC VAXELN (for turning VAXen into real-time embedded devices).
Ah. Context. You might put that in the image, for easier grasping. The list is so long, it looks like it's trying to be a list of everything... that's an achievement for sure.
@ElPamplina @mdione I have to admit I've grown a little accustomed to learning about curl getting used in many places but still: confirmed used by NASA involved in landing a vehicle on another planet is certainly next-level. Certainly one of the coolest accomplishments so far I think.
Didn't that one probe to Jupiter run curl? IIRC, they slammed it into the core. So for a few microseconds, it was there. Also, what about the one asteroid a few months back?

I spent few hours hacking together a proof of concept authorization for @panoramax using an existing OAuth2 access token from OpenStreetMap. Basically, I'm already logged in, so why should I log the second time in a Panoramax instance?
Partly solved the issue that @MapComplete had, and circumvented by having a single user uploading everything, adding original authors to an Exif tag.
The idea was: to upload photos from a mobile app, I need to seamlessly login to Panoramax. But I already have an OpenStreetMap OAuth2 token, and I don't...

My grandmother's 90th birthday present ready: a chronicle of her family all the way to the late 16th century. If you ever want something like that (in the Czech Republic), I can only recommend @rodokmeny/ @margo.
Je možno nějak (naprosto zhruba) odhadnout, kolik stojí zakázka takového nějakého rozsahu? Tohle vypadá mnohem hodnotněji (ale také náročněji/dráž) než všechny ukázky typických služeb "vyrobíme vám rodokmen", které jsem kde viděl. @sesivany @rodokmeny
@mormegil Tato konkrétní zakázka stála asi 36.000,- ale záleží na počtu dochovaných archiválií a matričních zápisů. Raději každému říkám ať počítá s cenou kolem 45.000,- Kč. Více najdete na rodokmen.info
@mormegil Ještě bych doplnil, že v té zakázce nebylo jen zpracování rodokmenu a kroniky tohoto rodu, ale doplňování rodokmenu z dalších dvou linií, které už jsem měl sám rozpracované a měl jsem individuální požadavky (pomoct tam, kde jsem se sám zasekl), takže moje zakázka nebyla úplně typická. Původně jsem si říkal, jestli to tak neudělat se vším, ale ta zpracovaná kronika má opravdu přidanou hodnotu. Nejsou to jen suchá fakta, ale paní @margo to dokáže velmi pěkně zasadit do historických reálií a dějinných událostí a napsat k tomu opravdu pěkné povídání. Babička dárek ještě nedostala, ale mamka je z něj nadšená.
It is now *six* years ago since I first blogged about how the #QUIC API situation was going to slow down QUIC (and HTTP/3) deployment. Unfortunately I was entirely correct.
I trust you've heard by now that HTTP/3 is coming. It is the next destined HTTP version, targeted to get published as an RFC in July 2019. Not very far off. HTTP/3 will not be done over TCP.
@tranzystorek_io they have. The offer their own QUIC stack now using their regular API. It's just MUCH slower and resource hungry than the competition.
a small correction: you mention Quicly as a TLS library. It is not. Quicly and PicoTLS are both developed by Kazuho Ohu at Fastly. Quickly is the Quic stack. PicoTLS is the TLS library, used by Quickly and by other Quic stacks, including Picoquic.
In case you need a silly distraction, my sibling found this book in a free library and sent me a picture. This has to be high in the running for "Best Physics Textbook Cover Ever"
In einer Welt, die von rechtspopulistischen Figuren und Tech-Giganten beherrscht wird, stellt das #Fediverse (#Mastodon) eine essentielle Alternative dar. Es bietet einen Raum für dezentrale Kommunikation, der frei von kommerziellen Interessen und der Manipulation durch zentrale Plattformen ist, und fördert eine digitale Kultur, die Unabhängigkeit, Vielfalt und respektvollen Austausch anstelle von Hass und Desinformation in den Mittelpunkt stellt. ✊
Heh. My toot about trapping Claude is still murdering my notifications, and has taken over my previous most popular toot about a fake cookie banner, and the best part: much more engagement on it too! That's the best part. I usually have boost & fav notifications turned off, but... I'm in a sour mood lately, and the notification sound reminds me of a bot being trapped in an infinite maze of garbage, and that cheers me up a little. So they're temporarily turned on, and I get to enjoy a small dopamine hit every once in a while! Whee!
I do like the fact that my two most popular toots, like, ever, are these two: a silly fake cookie banner, and a delightful toot about trapping an AI crawler. If that's going to be my legacy, I'm happy.
Awww. Well, you leave a lot of nice things behind, friend, some of them curious experiments too. I like reading about your musings, they are certainly interesting. I must also ask you what app are you using that it gets GTS notifications, because we don't have notifications. :)
Oh, I don't think that's accessible very much, nothing shrimp is accessible, to be fair. I am using enafore which also has sounds, which you have to enable from the settings page, but it has the masto sound from the actual interface of masto. Why? I have no idea, but if I could, I would change it for sure.
While it is hosted at iceshrimp, it is a slightly hacked up Mastodon web UI. Not sure how accessible that is, but it's not a shrimp UI.
But yeah, it plays the mastodon sound. I don't mind much, most of it is obscurbed by the music I'm listening to - I just hear that something happened, because there was a momentary disruption in the music.
Oh interesting. Well in that case, Enafore plays the same sound, so I get that. I still don't get phone notifications though, which sucks. I guess they've not been implemented for anyone, yet.
Oh, yeah, no notifications on the phone for me, either (using Tusky on Android). But then, I have turned them off on my phone anyway, so wouldn't know even if I had any!
I use Toot! on phone, but I used to use Tusky when I had an Android before, I liked it. There was also an app called subway tooter, and for its funny name, it was pretty useable and cute if you were a blind person with good screen orientation, which I sadly am, so it's hard for me to relate to many blind humans, like some thing in between. I haven't bought any apps, besides Toot! a long time ago and that ws super cheap one-time purchase. But there are no notifications, at all. And my backup account on another instance does receive notifications, because it's Masto with Glitch, if I am not mistaken, so those work there. It's time for GTS to implement notifications, because I don't want to respond to someone 5hours later if I can help it. :)

After nearly a full year in development, NodeBB v4.0.0 has landed, bringing federation between NodeBB instances (and a connection to the wider fediverse of social media) to forum software.
Fedi-what?
Fediverse! Here's a TechCrunch primer about it, but at the end of the day, it doesn't really matter. All you need to know is that NodeBB plugs in to a wider social network so that you don't have to cultivate an audience, they're already there.
The genesis
It was back in mid-2023 when I had the initial idea of interconnecting NodeBB forums. Back then, I had far smaller ambitions... I wanted a singular NodeBB to be able to communicate with other forums running NodeBB. To do that, we'd need to build out a centralized service to act as a bridge between instances, and corresponding slim clients on individual installs to consume the relayed data. At the time, concept like decentralization were not even part of my thought process.
It was during this period when I was doing my research that I stumbled on Mastodon, and later, ActivityPub, the protocol that powers it all. Since then, it's been one wild ride getting NodeBB to speak the same language.
Funding
Soon after dipping my toes into all that Mastodon had to offer, I discovered the NLNet Foundation, and their corresponding fund — NGI Zero Core. With the promise of funding, NodeBB could fully commit to implementing the protocol in short order, instead of piece by piece over time. We sent in an application and were delighted to be approved for the August 2023 call.
Their funding was instrumental in providing the financial stability to experiment with ActivityPub and to participate in developer circles, such as the SWICG, FediForum, and much more.
NodeBB v4 comes shipped with the capability to interact with other NodeBB forums and any other ActivityPub-speaking software, right out of the box. We opted to make this a core feature instead of a plugin, since there were many changes made to core to support even the concept of accepting content from outside itself.
To that end, any users upgrading from v3.x will automatically have federation disabled, in order to reduce surprise. Any new forums will federate automatically.
You can turn federation on and off (and adjust some other fun toggles) directly from ACP > Settings > Federation (ActivityPub).
Even after turning federation on, how you use it shapes how well connected you will be. There is no centralized authority artificially boosting your content, so the name of the game is establishing two-way follow relationships to other sites.
The ActivityPub Equalizer
We're not alone in this journey to interoperate with other decentralized services. We're not even the only forum software to attempt to do so.
Discourse has a working plugin.
Ghost is building out in the open.
I specifically highlight these two because they both started in the early 2010s, same as NodeBB. It's always been a bit of an informal competition between us, and we always checked in on what the others were doing (growth-wise, pricing-wise, etc.) Truth be told, I don't think the ghost team ever really noticed NodeBB, but I digress...
The funny thing about ActivityPub is that at the end of the day, the overarching goal of seamless communication breaks down any barriers between competing organizations.
NodeBB and Discourse have been vying for the exact same market share (forums, community-building, self-started or enterprise) for over 10 years, and it was only after ActivityPub came around that the dev teams even started talking to one another.
Funny how that works.
So how does it all work?
Our documentation portal has been updated with the latest information about the ActivityPub functionality in v4.
If you have any questions about how it works or how to configure some aspect of it, please don't hesitate to reach out in the corresponding v4 support thread.
If you run NodeBB, the quickest way to see this in action is to upgrade to v4, and then paste this post's URL into your search bar. It should show up automatically, and you should be able to read and reply to it, directly from your own forum. Neat!
I got the $30 tape recorder. Spoiler alert: It's mono. However, the universe sometimes throws me a bone. When I was very young in the 90's, I had a tape from an a cappella group that started with a song called "Take a Holiday". I remember it quite well, have tried searching for it, and never found it. Today I pulled out a random take from a random stack in one out of two giant boxes of tapes. And I found ... Easy T's - Tape a Holiday (Shoestring Records, 1993). The internet still stubbornly refuses to agree with me that this thing exists. So Here's my proof. The tape is in less than stellar shape after 30 years and this is a recording from a shitty boombox that would probably make cassette enthusiasts cry. You have been warned.

This is psychological pollution under the guise of caring. Saying this to me, in response to MY work, is a classic mastodon experience. Express your despair somewhere else if you need to but understand that it is profoundly threatening to dump this into the mentions of women in science. It accomplishes nothing but forcing me to imagine my life under threat.
@grimalkina@mastodon.social Well unfortunately, this is all going away.
In a few years, women will not be allowed to enter science - capable or not. Nor get abortions, work outside of the home, or leave their abusive husbands.

FYI, the same-page links in the table of contents nav thing for the post don't work for me in Safari on iOS. VoiceOver just indicates that I've returned to the top of the page (to the NVAccess logo link) when I activate them.
@jscholes Thanks James, is that usual (if you look at previous issues)? I'm using the same setup as previously and they seem to work for me, though I haven't tested in iOS myself yet, I'll check that out.
@jscholes Do the links other than the first one (ie add-on survey, SPEVI conference etc) - Looking at w3schools.com/html/html_id.asp what I've done should work, ie: <a href="#C4">Jump to Chapter 4</a> which links to <h2 id="C4">Chapter 4</h2>
BUT I noticed in there "The id name ... cannot start with a number". The first TOC entry for the 2024.4.2 update has a number for the ID. I've never noticed an issue before, apparently it SHOULD work fine with HTML, but CSS may not: benfrain.com/when-and-where-yo…
W3Schools offers free online tutorials, references and exercises in all the major languages of the web. Covering popular subjects like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, SQL, Java, and many, many more.
@jscholes I'm not sure if Windows / Chrome / Firefox / NVDA are happy to work with my numerical ID, and for some reason IOS / Safari / VoiceOver is not?
I just updated it to ensure ALL the ID's start with letters now. I'd be interested to know if it works now? If not, maybe there is an iOS / Safari / VoiceOver bug?
That hasn't made a difference. But based on your mark-up example, you're missing a tabindex="-1" on the target headings to make them programmatically focusable (headings can't receive focus by default). It's possible that Windows browsers/screen readers aren't picky about that anymore (relying on scroll position only), while Safari still requires it.
@jscholes This seems to be a Voiceover bug as far as I can tell - the ID should be all that is needed to tell the browser where to go, and that WC3Schools article (& other tutorials I can find) only requires the ID. As far as I can tell tabindex is only required where you want to override the default order of things when physically tabbing around the site (with the tab key)
A `tabindex` value of `"-1"` either: 1. removes an element from the tab order; or 2. makes an element programmatically focusable when it isn't already.
The second category is what applies here, because a heading isn't focusable by default. If you want focus to move to it (in this case by clicking a link) as opposed to the browser only scrolling the page, it should be made focusable via `tabindex="-1"`.
Here's an example page which does work correctly with VoiceOver, where the "Tuesday", "Wednesday" and "Thursday" links cause the corresponding headings to be correctly focused because the `<h2>` elements have `tabindex="-1"`.
I'll also note that the links on the In-Process page don't actually work correctly in Chrome on Windows either, even though NVDA gives the impression that they do. If you activate e.g. "Add-on survey" and then press NVDA+Tab, you hear:
@marco @jscholes Actually, a target is not required to be focusable in order for a same page link to target it. Target scroll and focus are two different things. If that isn't working on iOS (and there isn't some other bug on the page), Safari or VoiceOver is doing it wrong. This has been allowed and supported by browsers and AT for years.
We still run into instances where skip links targeting headings fail to provide an equitable experience without the target being focusable. It's possible that in such cases, there is something else wrong on the page. At the same time, adding the tabindex fixes the problem, allows SR users to determine the new focus point instead of it being on the body, and provides a visible indication of focus for people who benefit from that (particularly if coupled with :focus-visible).
I think it's good to know if a given technique should no longer technically be required especially if it leads to knowledge of an Apple bug (that they won't fix), but I maintain that there's an easy way to improve this situation with no negative side effects, and so whether it should need the workaround or not is practically moot for users.
On the other hand, we've now spent more time talking about the problem than it would've taken me to read the whole page so... shrug :)
@jscholes @jcsteh @marco Also, you need to think about those links for more than just screen reader users.Programmatically moving focus to the main content allows sighted keyboard-only users to bypass repeated content as well, something simply scrolling the screen doesn't do for them.
@jyarbrough @jscholes @jcsteh @marco I'm still looking into this - if it helps make it better to access in future, then it's worth it. As well as Wc3 schools, most other guides on creating same page links don't mention tabindex either (specifically adding it to a search I can find some A11y pages talking about it) - it seems like needing an extra tag to provide functionality the same page link should just DO. In what situation would anyone want a same page link to scroll but not move focus?
@jscholes @jcsteh @marco The guidance we provide where I work is to include a tabindex and it's something I was asked about in a technical interview with one of the big accessibility consulting companies here in the US.
@jyarbrough @jcsteh @marco Moving focus can be a sticky topic because it causes an outline/ring to appear around the thing that receives it (at least on accessible sites). Many web designers for some reason have an aversion to this happening when a focus change is triggered with a mouse, and this may explain why browser developers have been hesitant to do more than just scrolling for skip links.
Then again, this is a complete guess and could be wildly off the mark.
@jscholes Re what NVDA+tab reports - That seems to be exactly the same even if you arrow down to the same place, so while possibly a sepearte bug, I don't think it's relevant here.
NVDA-Tab reports the system focus. If you arrow down the page in browse mode, you're not moving the system focus so the behaviour you're describing is expected and not a bug. I was pointing out that NVDA-Tab is relevant to the discussion because if you allow the heading to receive focus as I'm suggesting, the system focus will move when one of those links is activated, and hence NVDA-Tab will report the heading accordingly.
Decades of Israeli warmongering show a pattern of the Israeli military trying to provoke the "other side" into responding in order to use it as "justification" for further slaughter.
