RIP Sebastião Salgado.

A great photographer is one where even when you know how great they are and are familiar with their main body of work, one of their photos can still take your fucking breath away. This one just floored me.

Announcing: justaqrcode.com.

Tired of "free" QR code generators that are full of ads and trackers, that share your data, and that want to sell you something? Me too. Here's my act of resistance: I made a one-page site that works entirely in your browser to generate a simple QR code. And that's all it does. You can download the HTML page and run it locally, even. Read the source; nothing up my sleeves. Just a QR code.

My offer to you -- I will continue to pay for the domain name and web hosting for it, myself. If you find it valuable, you can pay it back by creating your own useful thing for the world and releasing it for free. Let's take back the friendly web, one vexingly-monetized utility at a time!

Has anyone who is #blind or using a #screenreader had any experience with the VR-n76 #ham#radio handheld? Is the app #accessible with #voiceover? Can you use most functions through the app (IE, it would be possible to use the radio without seeing its screen)? I'm thinking about one for a summer trip, if only I knew I could use it. www.verotelecom.com/VR-N76-Dual-Band-Handheld-Radio-p2511333.html#hamradio#a11y#amateur#amateurradio

American English wasn't the only option for asserting our independence in the minds of some of the Founding Fathers. They also considered making French, Greek, and other languages the "American" language.

Learn about that and much (much!) more in this week's Grammar Girl interview with Gabe Henry, author of "Enough is Enuf" about simplified spelling.

I stopped using Reddit because the company was feeding my words into a large language model, and I stopped using StackOverflow because the company was feeding my words into a large language model, and I will stop using Discord if the company starts feeding my words into a large language model

At the weekend, a group of trans women protested topless at the Scottish Parliament about the recent Supreme Court ruling that the Equality Act defines women as "biological women". The police couldn't arrest them, because to arrest them for showing their breasts would be to define them as women (it's not illegal for men to be topless). And, of course, the right-wing press that reported on it censored their breasts, thereby making their point for them.

Si hoy podemos seguir respirando aire, bebiendo agua y comiendo alimentos es porque países como Uruguay, Indonesia, Nicaragua mantienen una relación con el mundo mucho más responsable que todos los países ricos, y porque les robamos sus recursos naturales.

*El titular: "Si la humanidad consumiera al nivel de España, hoy se acabarían los recursos de la Tierra para todo el año."

Tak už se zabydluji na Wallabagu na @oscloud a zjistil jsem, že nefunguje import z Pocketu, což je pro mých přes 3000 položek trabl.

Dal jsem místo práce dohromady malý skriptík, kdyby se hodilo ještě někomu:
