Z Trilium Notes jsem zatím nadšený a vypadá to, že bude dalším kandidátem na @oscloud – ale pozor, jde o nástroj primárně pro jednoho uživatele, takže instalace bude jen na vyžádání pro vážné zájemce.

🔍 Co je TriliumNext?
Open source aplikace pro správu poznámek a osobní znalostní bázi – běží v prohlížeči, ale instaluje se jako vlastní server.

Nabízí:
👉🏻 hierarchii a klonování poznámek (stejná poznámka může být na víc místech)
👉🏻 šablony (např. denní poznámky, TODO, trackery)
👉🏻 podporu skriptů
👉🏻 vlastní HTML/JS widgety (grafy, trackery, dashboardy)
👉🏻 vyhledávání, štítky, připnutí, historii změn
👉🏻 šifrování poznámek a export do ZIPu

💡 Dá se použít jako deník, osobní wiki, plánovač projektů, nástroj pro sledování návyků nebo třeba tréninkový deník.

🛠️ Je to trochu pro „fajnšmekry“ – Trilium má své specifika a chvíli trvá, než ho člověk dostane do ruky. Ale stojí to za to. 💪🏻

I have two burning questions about the VIewPoint AI screen reader: 1. Why for WIndows only, and 2. Where does the collected data go? I did not see any disclaimers on their website. What did I miss?
On the flip side, so cool to see AI being put to a good use. Developers, please do not relax though, you still have to take care of accessibility. :) dragonscave.space/@Woody/11447…

Random reminder that #BillGates is the reason why AstraZeneca #COVID vaccine is patent-encumbered:
wired.com/story/opinion-the-wo…

> Gates bragged about convincing Oxford University not to open-license its vaccine. Gates leveraged his $750 million donation to the university for vaccine research—even though its vaccine was developed in a publicly funded lab. Eventually, Oxford sold the sole right of production to AstraZeneca, with no guarantee of low prices and an extraordinary opportunity for profit.

For my disabled followers, what do you consider when thinking about inclusive swag? Swag in this case meaning t-shirts, coffee mugs, backpacks, stickers, etc. that you acquire through conferences, work, or other places.
I struggle to name what I look for in swag for it to be inclusive as a blind person; I think the most I'd look for is cool tactile design on t-shirts and perhaps embossed designs on stickers. But even that's a stretch; I've never felt strongly enough to remotely consider this, and that's why I'm here! I also consider things like Braille to be a novelty, and don't feel excluded when it doesn't exist. In a nutshell--I don't really care. But I'm sure someone out there does. Surely there's at least one of you.
Please boost for reach.

@Bruce I have read that some influential #Catholic individuals who supposedly belong to a group called Opus Dei were in and around the Vatican before the conclave began trying to somehow influence the deliberations. I don’t have any skin in the game, as I have said before elsewhere I’m not #Catholic even though I was blessed with Jesuit education through high school and college. I think there will be continuing pressure, probably on all sides, to politicize the papacy, and to the extent it can be resisted I hope it is.

The real problem, was that app trying to force us to choose between our privacy and their services by forcing the disabling of the ad blocker, and their argument of everyone else having to deal with the problem, doesn’t hold away either because everyone else can get to the close button. It’s not our fault. Talkback doesn’t see it after all. It’s also not our fault if someone’s ad causes actual damage to our phone because it locks it up and overheats it. There are entitled brats in any group I grant you, but this over a generalization and looking down on those of us who actually don’t have any money is just bar worthy. also, if I have to make a choice between my privacy in your app, your app is automatically going in the garbage. I was going to pay the subscription for the app they mentioned, until it demanded I disabled my ad blocker. My ad blocker is there for my privacy and the security of my device, including limiting the potential for massive overheating and physical damage. I am not turning it off just because some app says that I have to. How about I uninstall that app and make sure all of my friends know that they should too instead. I did the same thing with the CW. They tried to make me disable my ad blocker, they got deleted. Dice world is an example of an app that does ads in a way that isn’t intrusive. You have the option to watch video ads, but you don’t have to, and the rest of their ads are those little banner ads running across the bottom of the screen that don’t actually get in the way.

"Water rights defender Karina Ruiz Ocampo, who had been disappeared since April 13 after unknown persons broke into her home and forcibly took her away, was found dead on Saturday, May 3, in the municipality of Amatitán, Jalisco. Karina was a member of the organization La Cima Nuestra Prioridad, and defended the right to water in the La Cima neighborhood in El Arenal, where she lived.

"Due to her advocacy work, Karina had received constant threats through social networks, and feared for her safety. March 23, 2025 was her last participation in a public demonstration."

Biometrie: Passbilder in der Amazon Cloud
netzpolitik.org/2025/biometrie…

und damit nach dem Cloud-Akt ... äh ... 🤡

in reply to Radasbona

@radasbona Diese Aktion nimmt auch den Fotografen die Butter vom Brot. Für die ist das Passbild-Geschäft ein wichtiges Standbein. Ursprünglich sollten die Aufnahmen ausschließlich in der Behörde zu tätigen sein (die sich damit eindeutig gewerblich betätigt). Dies war die Lösung, welche die Innung erreichen konnte, um sackweise Schließungen zu vermeiden.
Für 6 € werden es die meisten in der Behörde machen. Der Qualitätsunterschied ist allerdings drastisch, die sind halt keine Fotografen…
in reply to IzzyOnDroid ✅

Deutschland kann man seit zehn Jahren eigentlich zur noch destruktiv nennen. Erschreckend. Der Reisepass schlägt jetzt bei uns mit ehem. 140 Mark zu Buche. 🤯

Die Qualität bei Passbildern ist mir aber eigentlich egal, die Sachen mit diesen Bildern wandern auf nimma wiedersehen ins hintere Geldbörsenfach. Bewerbungsfotos ist natürlich was anderes.

Meine Glaskugel schätzt das es bald sowieso Webdienste für lizenzierte Passbilder gibt, wo man eigene Bilder hochladen kann zum Weiterleiten an die Behörde. für 1€ vielleicht....

Today sharing another of @metalab events with public notes that you might find interesting. Show and Tell is basically what it says: you show up and share anything you've recently come across for everyone to try out. Today we've had a mix of KVM devices, obscure HTML elements, archives of mod game music and retro games in general and anything in between. The meetings are usually on a Thursday at the beginning of the month (the 2nd if I'm not mistaken) and the discoveries are uploaded soon after so keep coming back to find out what we dug up any given month. metalab.at/wiki/Show_and_Tell
