For the first time since September of 2019, FX Radio lives again!
What is FX Radio?
Basically, it's a stream with a stack of three media players shuffling through a huge collection of royalty free sound effects, music, and sometimes other odd things.
Essentially, it's audible streaming chaos, and a possible drug substitution if you are so inclined.
There are still some things to be tweaked, so it may randomly disappear from time to time, but we here at NoiseBox HQ are mostly happy with how it's working so far, streaming live from a computer under @BorrisInABox's mom's desk, and she has no idea it's there.
More features will be added in the coming days, hopefully.
There is no website or anything fun like that, just a stream URL.
[Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA)](https://www.w3.org/WAI/standards-guidelines/aria/) is an inevitability when working on web accessibility. That said, it’s everyone’s first time learning about ARIA at some point.
Today's #AndroidAppRain at the #IzzyOnDroid repo will come with a special: Neo Store updated to v1.1.2, and now does provide our download statistics inline (see attached images) 🥳
You cannot only see how well your favorite apps perform, but also sort your listings by "popularity" (actually, download counts). And also which F-Droid client is favored by those using a given app.
Currently only available for apps provided via the IzzyOnDroid repo – until other repos pick up the stats generator.
Can flexibly be adjusted to different server log formats.
Thanks to @nlnet for funding this work! 🤗 (and to all of you supporting us via opencollective.com/izzyondroid and other means, even just motivating us with your nice feedback 🤗)
This repository contains scripts to turn your server logs into the "IzzyOnDroid download stats" format, which can then be collected by https://codeberg.org/IzzyOnDroid/iod-stats-collector.
good incentive to try out neostore. If you are about stats, it would be interesting to have a place where you could display the apps origins, like a pie chart that tells us how many percent of apps are developed on github, codeberg, gitlab and so on.
@kuroneko I guess the best place for that would be codeberg.org/IzzyOnDroid/iod-s… – it's definitely doable. Maybe you open an issue there to ask for it, so your question does not get lost? We'd then see what can be done.
Thanks, also for the suggestion – it's a good idea!

I much appreciate the call-out on RuneScape cancelling their pride event. My RuneScape playing friends were so visibly hurt.
Checkpoint is the only game news show I follow as I can trust them to not pander to bigotry and call it out instead of trying to be "neutral" (which these days seems to mean "promoting hate", neutrality would be allowing queer people to exist).
Thank you @Graham_LRR and the rest of the team. You're amazing.

Dutch public broadcaster NOS made a WONDERFUL 10 minute segment on the EU #ChatControl proposal. Perhaps you can coax YouTube to provide you with English subtitles, I think this video could help sway/inform other countries as well: youtube.com/watch?v=_Ek9R4TXq7…

One of the ways that LLM-authored code improves productivity is by merely SAYING it does things. It's way faster than the whole time-consuming process of actually doing things. This is real code someone sent to me for review.
Here is a way that I think #LLMs and #GenAI are generally a force against innovation, especially as they get used more and more.
TL;DR: 3 years ago is a long time, and techniques that old are the most popular in the training data. If a company like Google, AWS, or Azure replaces an established API or a runtime with a new API or runtime, a bunch of LLM-generated code will break. The people vibe code won't be able to fix the problem because nearly zero data exists in the training data set that references the new API/runtime. The LLMs will not generate correct code easily, and they will constantly be trying to edit code back to how it was done before.
This will create pressure on tech companies to keep old APIs and things running, because of the huge impact it will have to do something new (that LLMs don't have in their training data). See below for an even more subtle way this will manifest.
I am showcasing (only the most egregious) bullshit that the junior developer accepted from the #LLM, The LLM used out-of-date techniques all over the place. It was using:
AWS Lambda Python 3.9 runtime (will be EoL in about 3 months)
AWS Lambda NodeJS 18.x runtime (already deprecated by the time the person gave me the code)
Origin Access Identity (an authentication/authorization mechanism that started being deprecated when OAC was announced 3 years ago)
So I'm working on this dogforsaken codebase and I converted it to the new OAC mechanism from the out of date OAI. What does my (imposed by the company) AI-powered security guidance tell me? "This is a high priority finding. You should use OAI."
So it is encouraging me to do the wrong thing and saying it's high priority.
It's worth noting that when I got the code base and it had OAI active, Python 3.9, and NodeJS 18, I got no warnings about these things. Three years ago that was state of the art.
Teach your developers ignore #AI generated warnings with this one weird trick!
If you look sy my previous post, under the erroneous "You should use OAI" message, there's a little icon and the word "Explain." You can ask the #LLM to explain the warning. Here's the explanation that Claude Sonnet 4.0 has for that warning. For those of you who don't want to read a screenshot, the LLM has prompted itself with:
Explain CloudFront Distribution Resources have an S3 Origin configured without an Origin Access Identity (OAI). issue in 70-frontend-stack.yaml at [29]
And the LLM's response to its own prompt is:
This is a false positive security warning. The issue is incorrectly flagged because:
You ARE using access control - Line 16-23 creates an Origin Access Control (OAC), which is the modern replacement for OAI
OAC is properly configured - Line 38 attaches the OAC: OriginAccessControlId: !GetAtt CloudFrontOriginAccessControl.Id
S3 bucket policy enforces OAC - Lines 120-135 ensure only CloudFront can access the S3 bucket
The security scanner likely only checks for the legacy OriginAccessIdentity property and doesn't recognize the newer OriginAccessControlId. Your configuration is actually more secure than using the deprecated OAI.
The warning can be safely ignored - your setup uses the AWS-recommended OAC approach for securing S3 origins.
Thanks for wasting my time AND egregious amounts of electricity generating a pointless "high priority" security warning.
@feld You can't do that unless you know that you should. And, as I pointed out, when the code was full of outdated techniques, I wasn't getting any warnings. I know what's out of date and what isn't. That's how I got into this situation. But a junior developer who doesn't know these things, and leans more on the LLM, will not know when the LLM-supplied code is wrong. They won't know they need to prompt the LLM to do something more modern.
I'm not much focused on myself, because I have what it takes to avoid steering myself into a ditch. But I'm thinking about what happens to someone less experienced who thinks they can use LLMs to do something that they couldn't otherwise do.
Byrokratický stát nutí naši zahrádkářskou kolonii utratit 40 tisíc korun ročně za účetní. Kdybychom si za to koupili motyky, můžeme okopat půl republiky. Před deseti lety, když jsem začal dělat předsedu, stačila na účetnictví paní s blokem a tužkou. Dnes? Nestačí ani jedna účetní. Musíme mít dvě: běžnou (20 tisíc ročně) a nově hledáme mzdovou (dalších 20 tisíc). Jen proto, že stát chce notifikace – sociálce, pojišťovnám, cizinecké správě. Abychom ušetřili, zkoušeli jsme účetní software rozchodit sami, ale ani po čtyřech víkendech jsme ty notifikace nedali. Má dáti – nedal.
Jo no, úřední zátěž furt stoupá. Sleduju to z pohledu našeho 16 členného bytové družstva. Pořád nové a nové zbytečné povinnosti, které nikdo nepotřebuje. Příklad z poslední doby: Nově máme povinnost dálkově odečítat teplou vodu a teplo. Ok, no problem. Ale máme ho odečítat měsíčně! Nikoho z nájemníků ten údaj nezajímá, ale nutí nás to platit firmu, která dálkové odečty měsíčně odečte a zpracuje. Nebo protože nám tenhle výdaj přijde absurdní chodíme každý měsíc s notebookem po chodbě a odečítáme to sami. Znovu, úplně zbytečně, nikoho to nezajímá. A odečítáme jen teplou. Pitná voda je jedno. Takhle kreténský nařízení to je. Jo a z pera Pirátu btw. Moc děkujeme. Každá takováhle blbost jen ztěžuje samosprávu, nikdo to pak nechce dělat a jen to skončí u nějaké správcovské firmy.
@stepan ono je to asi všude.. popravdě už mám v plánu s předsednictvím skončit, ať to zase chvíli dělá někdo jiný.. snažíme se držet poplatky při zemi, přesto lidi nadávají, až si člověk říká, že je pitomec, že to vůbec dělá..
ono to asi nemá jiné řešení než "restrukturalizaci" (= teprve když s tím seknou všichni, až se to úplně složí, tak se to bude moct postavit znovu a lépe.. nicméně tou dobou už budeme mít místo demokracie nějakou monarchii, nebo budeme Rusko, nebo další spolkovou republikou )
@stepan "Když se ministr Bartoš pokusil prorazit systém bez pijavic – bum. Stavební řízení, které tou dobou už fungovalo, sice špatně, přesto fungovalo – nyní nefunguje vůbec. A nebude až do roku 2028. "
@vick21 I played with it a very long time ago, and I couldn't understand and perceive the sonic representation at all. For me, the idea is very cool, but it would require a lot of practice to rewire my brain to follow the sonicscape. lol
@chikim Same here. The article also points this out. I think it took Nimer quite a bit of time to get a hang of this. But he seems to really like and use the app!
#dobreranko všem Vyrazil jsem dolů do města do pekárny pro pečivo dost na lehko (krátké tričko, kraťasy, sandály) a ejhle jen 11°C. Navíc v pekárně dnes nepekli chleba, tak ještě do #penny kde mne opět naštvali, postupně ruší pečivo od malých lokálních výrobců, i když jsou nejprodávanější. Prý to tak chceme. No, rozdíl na bochníku chleba je kolem 7-10Kč, chuťově a výdrží 300%. #penam výrobky jsou odpad, koupil jsem #odkolek podmáslovy chléb (nic moc) a vícezrnný lámankový a ač 2x dražší tak zase nic moc 🤷 Nevím jestli jsem nějak rozmazlený, ale i Babiččin chleba od PéCé je násobně lepší a po 5 dnech pořád skvělý. Takže ráno budu muset přes 3 pekařství abych nakoupil co nám chutná, prakticky 18km, to je už na kolo 🤦
Já mám výhodu. Kousek od baráku máme malou pekárnu. Tak chodím pro dobrý chléb tam. Jen musí člověk brzo ráno, protože je hned pryč. Odkolek je Babiše ten nekupujeme 😄
@archos Tak asi všechny tyhle super výrobny, pekárnou bych to nenazýval, stojí za prd. Jsem vděčný za PéCé (Pekárny a cukrárny Náchod a.s.) jsou v Náchodě, Broumově a u nás v Trutnově, zatím drží obstojnou kvalitu. Problém je s velkými super/hyper markety, prostě od nich postupně přestávají brát, přestože jejich zboží zmizí jako první, ač ne nejlevnější. Divná politika .....

The LI-900 silica tiles used on the Space Shuttle were such poor heat conductors you could grab them with bare hands seconds after pulling them from a 2200 degree oven.

Day 4 of my #retirement #bikepacking tour on #Brompton folding #bike : Milano -> Lodi - 42 km, half of it stop-and-go in the suburbs of #Milano . 3 #ghostbikes within 1 km in the small village of Dresano. I dedicate this stage to all the #cyclers who were killed on the road.
I just added all three #ghostbikes (with photos) in three different spots in the small village of Dresano to #OpenStreetMap. None of them was already registered.
@thibaultmol Thanks for the addition. Your pictures will appear on @ghostbikebot as well and (if you linked your mastodon account from your OSM-account) it'll link to you as well

![One of Britain’s most senior police officers has launched an angry tirade against Extinction Rebellion protesters going “all floppy” when they get arrested.
Sir Stephen House, the deputy commissioner of the Metropolitan police, said the tactic of going limp was a “flipping nuisance” as it required extra officers to drag protesters away.
House told a London assembly police and crime committee hearing: “We have asked them to stop being floppy. And that might seem like a silly thing to say, but when we arrest them and pick them up, they go all floppy, which is why you see four or five officers carrying them away. It’s a complete waste of officers’ time, and a complete pain in the neck.” Extinction Rebellion: how successful were the latest protests?
House also expressed annoyance at how the tactic made the police look heavy-handed. He said: “The problem with them going floppy and four offices carrying them away [is that it] looks to the general public like police are overreacting here. We’re not making them go floppy. They’re just sort of being a nuisance.”](https://fedi.ml/photo/preview/640/701457 "One of Britain’s most senior police officers has launched an angry tirade against Extinction Rebellion protesters going “all floppy” when they get arrested.
