Přemýšlím, jak se na vysoký nárůst teplot doma připravit už teď. Vysázet stromy, ať mám všude kolem domu stín? Instalace klimatizace, když to je právě to, co zvyšování teploty pomáhá? Natřít barák na bílo? Všude trávník místo dlažby a vodní nádrže k zalévání? Venkovní žaluzie? Rekuperace (netroufám si říct, kolik miliónů by taková rekonstrukce jednopatrového desítky let starého baráku mohla stát a jestli se to vyplatí)?

@margo @OttovonWenkoff Mohlo by to být téma, i když hlučnější než naše rodina (a hlavně děti) ta klimatizace asi nebude 😀 Čistě teoreticky (a kdyby tomu vybranému bytu dala banka zelenou) bychom nikoho rušit nemuseli, nad námi i pod námi bude dispozice stejná. Čili abych nebyl úplně mimo téma - kde technicky klimatizace lze, tam bych ji chtěl a zkoušel ji pouštět co nejméně.

@marekzprahy Musím říct, že s tím máme neblahou zkušenost z posledního bytu. Člověk v bytu pod námi si pořídil klimu a když jsme měli v létě v noci otevřené okno, byla ta venkovní jednotka slyšet až doprostřed 100m2 bytu. Za pár měsíců jsme se stěhovali, takže jsme to už neřešili, ale bydlet tam trvale, tak s tím máme problém.

Problém je, že nikdo dopředu neví, jak hlučné to bude a jak to bude ostatní rušit. Dodavatel vám řekne, že vám dát tišší jednotku, o které nebudou sousedi ani vědět. A jak je to nainstalované, zjistíte, že realita je jiná.

Flow –the animated sensation of the year– was created in Blender! Francesco had a chat with director Gints Zilbalodis to discuss his experience working on the film. The interview covers topics such as learning Blender, working with a team (actually multiple small teams), using add-ons, and single-handedly lighting and rendering the film.

Why am I still wearing a mask in 2025? For exactly the same reasons I wore it in 2021. Because nothing has changed.

Except maybe the way people look at me. But funny looks don’t transmit viruses. Aerosolized particles do.

Hi everyone, we had a question on the weekend about the best programs, accessible with NVDA under Windows, for:

1. An accessible client to work with multiple calendars via CalDAV

2. A program which can work as a to-do-list.

The user would prefer not to use Outlook if possible. Has anyone got tips please?

A couple of days back I posted

"Stop creating international conferences that meet in the US.

This goes beyond conference policies. Some of your attendees will not be able to get into the US and some of those that do risk arrest."

Many people said that the current risk of arrest was low for people in "safe" categories. I sort of agreed but emphasized that the future risk wasn't. Well the future is already here.

What's the state of #matrix, #xmpp and #IRC as far as #screenReader -accessible clients are concerned? Desktop (Windows, Mac) and mobile (iOS, Android).

Hoping for some input, please feel free to boost. As far as I know:

Matrix does not have a lightweight, fully accessible client for desktop, but one could be modified, such as #gomuks. On mobile, Element has scrolling issues, which is unacceptable for large rooms.

XMPP has accessible desktop clients (I used to run #Adium on the Mac), also #WeeChat. No idea about mobile.

IRC is perhaps the one which everything supports on desktop, from #MirandaIM through Weechat to the old Freedom Chat, which I could probably rewrite if I had to. Also not sure about mobile, but it would definitely need push notifications, because we can't expect people to stay constantly online on the go. #a11y #accessibility

@Zvonimir Stanecic @André Polykanine @Erion I'm using elementX on android and for text chatting And voice messages I find it working well for me.
Onlinux desktop there is fractal. Which will hopefully becomes accessible enough on windows as well when GTK4 accessibility matures in one of the upcoming 4.18+ versions.
For XMPP the onlydecent and accessible client app is conversations on android.
Others are either not verry screen reader accessible or are lacking in features.

today, i have IP-blocked the entirety of alibaba cloud’s IPv4 range (47.80.0.0/13, 47.74.0.0/15, 47.76.0.0/14). And you could ask - domi, what the hell, that’s kinda sorta a lot of addresses?

fucking watch this: that’s sakamoto Mk5, my Ryzen 9 7950X3D server. Never before have I seen forgejo taking this much CPU.

They’ve generated 9GB of access logs (!) and 230GB of generated tarballs (!!!) before I got to my laptop, investigated and ip-banned them. I’m positive that most forgejo deployments in existence wouldn’t survive this.

Every time someone launches an Android phone, they fork (copy-paste) the entire code-base for each and every device and Android version. Keeping it up to date is a lot of effort for the vendors, but don't worry - they only do so for a limited amount of time, so that you have to buy a new phone instead!
