I cannot stress this enough - so many of the people in the Trump WH, including Trump himself would NEVER pass even the most rudimentary background checks. They have access to intel only because the Senate Republicans confirmed their incompetencies. theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.
“Here is a list of WCAG 2.2 Level A and AA success criteria that I think cannot be completely tested with automated tools. These criteria require manual testing because they involve meaning, usability, intent, or user experience that automated tools cannot fully evaluate.” html5accessibility.com/stuff/2…

MY LATEST: I sat down with Microsoft's Jessica Rafuse, who leads accessibility partnerships and policy at the company, to talk about this year's just-completed Ability Summit and much more in a new interview.
March has been a big month for Microsoft in the accessibility arena. Besides launching the Xbox Adaptive Joystick , the Redmond-based tech titan last week held its 15th annual Ability Summit .
If you need to convert a file to another format, watch out for potential malware. The FBI is warning that hackers are circulating malicious file-converter tools online. pcmag.com/news/psa-be-careful-…
These file-conversion tools often work as advertised, but ultimately pair the converted file with a program designed to secretly hijack the victim’s computer, the FBI warns.
The original Dear Abby was a badass, esp for her time, she was a champion for queer acceptance in her column and was very big on telling parents to listen and accept their children instead of punishing and fighting with them. But also this response is a banger. Top 10 advice columnist responses of all time.

Fellow Canadians: if you've moved or would like to vote by mail for the April 28th federal election you can do so at Elections Canada's website. Its pretty easy!
Our library has access to a book published by Springer, _Advanced Nanovaccines for Cancer Immunotherapy: Harnessing Nanotechnology for Anti-Cancer Immunity_. Credited to Nanasaheb Thorat, it sells for $160 in hardcover: link.springer.com/book/10.1007…
From page 25: "It is important to note that as an AI language model, I can provide a general perspective, but you should consult with medical professionals for personalized advice..."
US officials up to the Vice President discuss the planning and execution of the attacks in Yemen on a Signal group and added a journalist to that group.
#oopsie doesn't even come close to.expressing what I think right now.
So. Uhm. Well. I think if Signal is safe enough for that, you can use it too :)
In 2025, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLM) like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and DeepSeek are being used for everything. Writing emails. Generating code. Even applying for jobs.
The European Accessibility Act (EAA) is quite long, and, honestly, hard to digest. @tink it down and explains in clear terms which digital products and services must meet accessibility requirements and exactly what businesses need to do to comply. Please, if you design, develop, or sell digital products or services in the EU, read this article, it’s still shorter than the actual act, and very well explained!

@helpers Hello, I'm new to fediverse hosting. Recently started a small Friendica instance for me and my friends. System: YunoHost 12.0.12 on VPS bought online App: Friendica 2024.12-1~ynh1 URL: kedralife.cz
I have huge problems with the worker queue, it periodically gets stuck for a very long time, processing nothing for hours or (more often) days (so far the maximum was 11 days) when it just grows a processes nothing. This means that my friends can't send each other private messages, public posts don't federate and any sort of permission-restricted posts get stuck on "pending" for days.
I tried running the worker.php with crontab very 5 minutes in addition to the friendica deamon, but it does not seem to help.
@FifiSch You can scale the worker in admin->page->Worker/Performance settings. You should run the worker manually and see if it throws an error? If this is the case depending on the error message you may enable extensions or increase the memory limit... or find an error in an addon...!??
Draft route for Jon Worth's #CrossChannelRail project in spring 2025. Dates for each leg of the trip are shown on each layer. Route colours alternate each day - yellows one day, purples the next, each train with a slightly different shade.

Ok, so Gemini Trains - the 4th known possible rival to Eurostar - is public. Some ex-Go Ahead people behind it. Once I’m done meeting SBB I’ll analyse it!
Gosh. I was off work for a day last week with a new Peter Cawdron. This week I get yet another day off and there's a new Scalzi! I haven't had a day off this quarter, then 2 books come along at once. #Bookstodon
I think I might need to start asking some LLM to help me with this #hCaptha. I really have no clue whether a microwave oven lives in an aquarium or where on earth is the Skip button.
If you are trying to delete your 23andMe data and get an obnoxious reply asking for ID, tell them no, that's what your password is for, and they will do it. And if they then send you an obnoxious reply saying they will delete everything except the stuff they are required to keep by law, check out this article by actual lawyer @AugustB
Many of 23 and Me’s former customers are asking to have their data and samples deleted or destroyed out of concern that they may be sold during the company’s looming collapse and likely bankruptcy …
gnome48 has, to me, been the biggest change I can remember. Don't know if it's the font , or colours were changed or the increased smoothness, but everything looks smoother and clearer. We're at the point where even just using gui controls I have no hiccups where I'd pull out the terminal during normal use. Everything feels so high quality and polished with all edges smoothed down. Truly an impressive release!
@kcpoole Hi there, You can turn off Conversation Threads by going *Settings* > *Email* > Under *General* go to *Conversation Thread* and select *Show selected email only*
I also notice on iOS you can swipe from left to right for the menu… it if you miss, you can send email to the archive… it would be better if Archive is on opposite side with Delete and on the left side you can make Mark unread
Tag 22 im Fediverse - Schau was flattert da in mein E-Mail-Postfach.
Ich oute mich jetzt hier: Ich habe bislang ziemlich viel zu Google Maps beigetragen, weil ich ein großer Fan davon bin, meine Erkenntnisse, Fotos und Informationen mit anderen zu teilen. 🙈
Künftig möchte ich auch hier etwas neues ausprobieren. Gerade habe ich die App "StreetComplete" entdeckt, mit der ich wohl ziemlich einfach zu OpenStreetmap beitragen kann. Gibts im Playstore und auch bei F-Droid.
Ich schaue mal noch, wo ich Renzensionen, Fotos etc. jetzt hinpacke, bin noch am Einarbeiten in OpenStreetmap und freue mich auch auf vielleicht ganz andere Dienste, die da noch auf Ihre Entdeckung warten.
Wheelmap is an online map to search, find and mark wheelchair-accessible places. Get involved by marking public places like bars, restaurants, cinemas or supermarkets!
@davbm Psst! We use @mangroveReviews , also known as #OpenReviewAssociation. OpenPlaceReviews is a different and mostly dead project. Now is a good time to use the edit-a-toot functionality
TIL that because the FFmpeg project has gained so much experience in hand-writing assembly code to provide huge speedups, they now are putting together a series of lessons for learning assembly:
Vibe coding is fun and all, but this is probably a better use of time!
