Comme si le train n'était pas déjà assez chez, voilà une brillante idée pour décourager encore davantage son usage.

Le réseau ferré meurt de décennies de sous-investissement.

Mais c'est aux transports polluants comme les poids lourds et l'avion de payer la facture, pas à nous.

'Keep your software updated' illustrates how bad IT actually is when it comes to security,...
We should get finished products with proven security by having passed a security audit.
Imagine buying a new car and being contacted by the seller after 1 month to inform you that some part needs to be replaced because it makes your car insecure. You get the part replaced but 1 month later the seller contacts you again to inform you that an other (or the first replacement) part needs to be replaced because it makes your car insecure,...
How long do you think it will take for you to start getting pissed and stop believing you have been sold something secure?

12 books in the week leading upto and the week of the holiday, including 13 days spent on a reread of a massive Harry Potter Fanfic. Not a bad run!

@Onqa6 🤔 Teda nechci do toho už zabrušovat, ale tady píšou, že i princezny chrápou 😀magazin.aktualne.cz/lifestyle/…

Je to tak 🤷🏻‍♂️. Berušku jsem poslal na plicní, zjistili, že má apnoi (občas v noci kromě chrápání přestala dejchat 😬, to se mi fakt nelíbilo, často jsem nespal a pozoroval ji 🙄 a budil ji, aby dýchala), takže dostala od zdravotní pojišťovny Philips DreamStation a je klid 😊 (byl/je na něj i software do Ubuntu 💚).
To se stalo před cca 7mi lety. Teď tam posílá i mě 😳, ale já jen občas chrápu ☺️🤔.

In August 2019, a young girl named Bethan visited Poole Museum in Dorset, England, with her mother. Inspired by the exhibits and a conversation about the purpose of museums, Bethan decided to donate her most treasured possession—a small rock—to the museum.
She requested that it be placed behind glass so others could appreciate it as she did. The museum staff honored her heartfelt request, and the rock was displayed in a glass case on the second floor, labeled “Bethan’s Rock.” #museums

Just in case anyone comes at you with adblocking is somehow immoral.

Adblocking is an essential tool of self defence.

In related news, I’m so happy uBlock is finally coming to Safari, but Wipr is also very good and is what I am using right now.

@mdione experimentally supported in current curl, RFC 9460: rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9460

Možná už tu někdo dával, ale @ppisa mě upozornil na #petici za open-source ve státní správě. Podpisů je tam pomálu a přitom petice je podle mě dobře formulovaná. Zvažte podpis. Děkuji, konec hlášení.

I’ve long admired the old ALDUS logo from the early PageMaker days on the Mac. I’ve used that style to create a #PenPlotter rainbow portrait of Alan Turing for pride month.

I've you've been following me awhile, you know much work I've put into creating a space in the fedi that differentiates itself from centralized platforms, not just as a foil to those places, but also to make an environment where we consider the possibilities beyond what we are told to believe.

It started with @fipamo dev tool I built for myself, that, through many interations, I am converting to an opinionated social media tool, built around the idea of having a more intimate and humane experience.

This led me to build @thebadspace community curation tool that individuals or communities can use to make moderation easier by identifying sources of harm and keeping them out of our spaces.

I have specific thoughts about safety in the largely unregulated fedi, which I teamed up with Nivenly to create a high level overview of how it could be implemented in independant social media platforms, called the FSEP (ha, which Bluesky seems to have, uhm, been inspired by for their "compostable moderation" feature, but that's another post). nivenly.org/docs/papers/fsep/

And last Friday, I hooked up with DAIR to host a panel called Imagining More, which brought together a crew of seasoned Black online professionals that talked about the challenges that inform the possibilities of web that is not just safer, but better for marginalized voices. twitch.tv/videos/2472547406

I'm not gonna lie, it's been a tough road to get here, but I am proud of the work I've done and the possibilities that are now being considered as we continue this grand experiment of independent social media. I've been a creative pro for a long time, but this has, by far, been the most rewarding work I have ever done.

And I plan on continuing, which of course takes resources. Not as much as you might think to keep it all moving forward, but it does take some.

Everything I do is funded by contributions from every day folks who want a better web or the occasional freelance work I pick. Everything. I don't take money from corporations or VC because what I'm building is for people to have a better and safer experience on the web. And it's going to stay that way.

gofundme.com/f/a-new-way-to-so…

So all that is to say I am very encouraged and excited about how everything is going. I want to do even more than what has been accomplished already.

Ha, and if you read all this I think you do too. So give what you can so I can continue to develop platforms and tools, write more thoughts about my vision for the independent web and create more events platforming the brilliant minds that are making it happen that you’re not hearing about.

Because even with the challenges and hardships I've endured, I strongly believe we are so much closer to having a web that enriches our lives than not.

We just have to keep pushing forward.

Thanks yall.

Happy #AudioMo! Here’s a moment I captured aboard Royal Caribbean’s Odyssey of the Seas cruise ship back in December. I originally hit record to catch a Cruise Director announcement, pretty routine. But just as it wrapped up, I heard something unexpected: piano music coming from an elevator.
To my surprise and delight, it was a stowaway pianist! Yes, they actually wheel a piano into the elevator and perform while it moves between floors. Naturally, I stayed on board and recorded a few selections.
Such a unique part of the cruise, I was thrilled to finally experience it in person.

Prepare for #WWDC25 by enabling audio descriptions for the TV app, as well as for supported videos in Safari, on iOS, iPadOS, and macOS. On iOS and iPadOS, go to Settings > Accessibility > Audio descriptions, and toggle the "Audio descriptions" switch on. On macOS, go to System Settings > Accessibility > Audio descriptions, and toggle the "Play audio descriptions when available" switch on. #TipTuesday applevis.com/podcasts/how-enab…
