Heute ist internationaler Tag fรผr Menschen mit Behinderung und ich bin schon gespannt, ob es auch dieses Jahr wieder zu viel verlangt ist, dass wenigstens jedes Bild, das sich mit dem Thema befasst, eine Bildbeschreibung und jedes Video eine Videobeschreibung plus Untertitel hat.
@AlexSpectrum93 Hi, please can you accept my follow request? I'm already your follower at @clv0, but I'm migrating to this account now. Thanks in advance.
Bueno, pues acabo de poner mi primera reclamaciรณn por el uso de la IA en un servicio de atenciรณn al paciente. En serio? En un hospital? En fin, cero sorpresas por otro lado si la gestiรณn es de Ayuso y su noviete...

I hate to type it, but: are we thinking about the slop maschine, ad maschine...? With great power comes great responsibility of course.
They type that too. On the screens.
The screens that sometimes feel to me like they give me tunnel vision.
We could use the science? But feels... Very data-centric culturally as far as I get it.
I don't even know if we can have this amount of very intricate electronics at this scale. Or this type. In the let us say, medium term. Mountains need to move? I hope they do.
YES ๐ Itโs thanks to #curl that Iโve been able to install the superb #YunoHost on my VPSโฆ and YunoHost has been life changing and incredibly empoweringโฆ
A) is that really the only company on that page that might have questionable ethics? I think most of them are. B) I don't "associate myself" with them. They use curl.
every time I type man curl and get a manuscript overfilling my terminal screen, I often think "damn, who needs all this to send some requests." Then this presentation puts things into perspective
There are a few spots left for the event I'm hosting tomorrow evening in Berlin about the #SovereignTechFellowship.

Ich muss mal vor einer wohl neuen Phishing-Masche warnen: in Mails, die angeblich von ELSTER kommen, steht, es sei ein amtliches Dokument hinterlegt und mรผsse abgerufen werden (irgendwas mit Referenzakte). Wenn man auf den Link klickt, soll man seine ELSTER-Daten eintragen.
Die Mails sehen ziemlich echt aus.

I work at Red Hat. Red Hat is part of IBM since 2019. It was a big change. But knowing we are part of a global company that is run by a CEO that focuses on reality instead of weird dreams is a Damn Good Thing. Thanks, Arvind Krishna!

Just three months after Russiaโs forced introduction of the app Max, India is now forcing smartphone manufacturers to ship all their phones with the state-app Sanchar Saathi.
Without an active SIM, the authorities have no verifiable link, such as call records, location data, or carrier logs to establish where the service was used.
this is a very bad take. if you have a compromised terminal device - which is effectively the case here -, end-to-end encryption where one of the ends is said device is not worth shit.
Ah ok, never knew this existed! But the delay is only the first time, also when I just click a post from the notifications. I'll keep it in mind though.
Question about accessible remote tech support across platforms:
I was using RIM to help troubleshoot a Mac issue, me on Windows, target machine is Mac OS. One side of the internet connection was kinda patchy and latency of the speech feedback felt like 3 years per keypress. We made a change that accidentally caused the target machine to lose all audio output. I killed VO, started remote access from the RIM menu, got prompted to get the accompanying NVDA add-on, and within a handful of seconds I had text from their Mac coming straight to my NVDA. Man, what a difference! It's honestly the first time I've done Windows to Mac remote support and felt like I could be productive here.
My questions are these: 1. How do I enable that setup without killing VoiceOver on the target? There are many scenarios where the target hearing what I'm doing is important, but I want to work without feeling like I'm swimming through a swamp. At the moment it seems like the remote access option disappears from my RIM menu when VO is running on the target. 2. Does anyone know of any efforts to get this sort of transmission from VO to NVDA happening as an add-on? Failing that, do I know any intrepid hackers who'd be interested in a session to sniff at traffic if I provide lab rats and potentially some sponsorship? It wouldn't need to have all the nice onboarding that RIM has or send audio (I'm aware that's difficult to do well from prior conversations).
I own several developer boards and used many others. During last two years more and more so called cheap developer boards arrived on market but are they good orย not? This week I am at Linaro Connect Q3.

Discovered I have a dying SSD tonight, but that's nbd
Opnsense upgrade went sideways probably because I was messing with a custom kernel on there a long time ago and forgot, but the recovery from a USB stick was super easy -- it auto imported the config, cloned everything over including all the packages that were installed, and was running "from a live environment" while that was happening which was neat. and then when it was done it was just a simple reboot to boot off normal storage again

There's a short story of frustration and comfort behind this post. A friendly discussion led to a writeup by Adrian, and I will follow up later with a little more about the backstory as I know it can bring some much-needed comfort to many people getting into or already working in #a11y
This postโs title is unpleasant, but itโs important to acknowledge the reality of the human condition and limitations in technologies. Even purpose-built assistive tech.
Heute, am dritten Dezember, ist der internationale Tag der Menschen mit Behinderung. Zur Feier des Tages werde ich heute richtig doll nervig rumbehindern.
Eigentlich wollte ich heute das Tool zum Barrieren melden in einer Testphase verรถffentlichen, aber meine Behinderung kam dazwischen und hat mir neben allem nicht erlaubt, in den letzten Tagen was zu programmieren. Dauert also leider noch bisschen.
Das ist 1 Symptom oder Beispiel davon, wie oft die Verantwortung fรผr notwendige Verรคnderung auf selbst Betroffene abgewรคlzt wird. Es ist seit Jahren vรถllig klar was zu tun wรคre, man kรถnnte jederzeit Ressourcen dafรผr holen, aber hat halt noch niemand gemacht, weil man damit kein Geld verdient oder aber den Staat mit selbst-auferlegter Bรผrokratie nerven kann.
Ich bin bisschen mรผde, dass das gute Zeug immer aus der Zivilgesellschaft for free und aus dem Ehrenamt kommen muss.
Wenn ihr ein paar Euros รผbrig habt, um meine Aufklรคrungsarbeit und meinen Aktivismus bei den Behรถrden zu unterstรผtzen, wรผrde ich mich aktuell mehr denn je รผber den ein oder anderen Euro รผber Steady freuen: steady.page/de/bye-bye-barrierโฆ (Ihr kรถnnt die Mitgliedschaften gern auch sofort wieder kรผndigen)
Ich mรถchte diese Arbeit gern mittelfristig mindestens auf Teilzeitbasis finanziert haben โ ansonsten brauch ich einen Job in einem ganz anderen Bereich, und darunter leidet diese Arbeit.
Ich schau hier insbesondere die Nichtbehinderten an, die in der Branche arbeiten und mit digitaler Barrierefreiheit ihr Geld verdienen. Ich bin eure fachliche Gewerkschaft. Meine Arbeit ist euer fast einziges Druckmittel gegenรผber euren grรถรten Auftraggebenden, auf Qualitรคt zu achten. Von euch mรถchte ich finanziert werden, weil ihr davon profitiert.
Von den 30 Leuten, die aktuell Mitgliedschaften haben (Danke, ich liebe euch alle ๐) sind in etwa zwei Drittel selbst behindert โ und das sind nur die, die ich kenne. Es ist ernsthaft so ein Witz, dass es schon wieder diese Personengruppe ist, die diese Arbeit nicht nur ideell krass unterstรผtzt, sondern auch finanziell.
Aber das ist kein Einzelfall. Corporates sponsorn Behinderte nur, wenn sie inspirierend und nicht nervig sind.
Ich meine, schaut euch den NVDA Screenreader an. NVAccess ist eine zu sehr groรen Teilen von Behinderten getragene Organisation, die die beste verfรผgbare Screenreader-Software und unzรคhlige weitere Tools open source und frei zur Verfรผgung stellt, damit Blinde weltweit mit Computern arbeiten kรถnnen.
Groรe internationale Konzerne verdienen auf dieser Grundlage Millionen, und geben รผberhaupt nichts darein zurรผck.
Wenn ihr eine Gesellschaft seid (UG, GmbH, AG, โฆ) sagt bescheid โ ich nehm auch mehr Geld von euch ohne Steady und schreibโ euch ne Rechnung. Ihr dรผrft mich auch gern fรผr Qualitรคtsarbeit fรผr euch fest einstellen, wenn ich dabei hier so weitermachen darf.
Fest steht: Diese Arbeit muss dringend finanziert werden, und als Firmen habt ihr mehr als alle Anderen die Ressourcen dazu.

After some years of using an iPad Pro 12.9โ with an M1 chip more or less frequently, Iโve now treated myself to an iPad Pro M5 11โ with its Magic Keyboard. And boy, do I love this combo! It reminds me why I loved the 11โ MacBook Air so much in its day. This iPad has the right size for my hands. The bigger screen was too big for me, and the smaller screen of an iPad Mini is too small, and there are no good keyboard choices. But that 11โ iPad Pro is exactly my fit. And I went for the pro because of Face ID. I don't like the Touch ID sensor in the Power button on the iPad Air and iPad A16 models. And now that the camera is in the top center of the wider edge, its use is much more natural than it was on the older iPad Pro where the camera was at the top in portrait mode. And this thing is fast! Holy moly! The last time I felt this comfortable with an iPad and keyboard combo was when I was using the iPad Air 2 and a Logitech Type+ keyboard cover. This M5 iPad Pro and its magic keyboard are just the right combination of size and weight to feel super portable to me.
And speaking of the new iPad, I took the opportunity to upgrade my Ferrite by @wooji to version 3 Pro. Especially the keyboard shortcuts on iPad peeked my interest. I am a VoiceOver user, and the problem with fine-grained editing with a touch screen alone was the delay between a double tap and the reaction from the app not making it possible to edit in real tiny bits. However, with the keyboard shortcuts now available to me, I found that I can edit as precisely as in REAPER on the Mac. Even some concepts like items on tracks in REAPER translate to clips on tracks in Ferrite. Hey, it even has splitting of clips and ripple editing! And with the iPads supporting audio interfaces such as the Zoom recorders, the iPad becomes a really portable podcasting studio for me. I played with this yesterday and will continue to familiarize myself with all the Ferrite concepts today, so that I can become as proficient with it as I am in REAPER on the Mac. And so far, I'm really impressed!
I'm considering the upgrade. Do you still go for the pro max phones? I'm conflicted about it at the moment. Loving the phone, but not the size. I'm really interested in how you find the responsiveness of VO on the M5 chip?
@serichsen Well, the iPhone 17 has a different chip than the iPad M5, but responsiveness is awesome on both devices. I upgraded to the 17 Pro max, and compared to the 16 Pro Max I had before, this one has much better battery life and thermal management. The 16 Pro max frequently became hot like a frying pan, the 17 Pro Max doesn't break a sweat in the same scenarios. And the battery definitely lasts longer. A worthwhile upgrade for me. And no, I never considered the iPhone Air.
I do love the battery life. Good to know about the iPad. Did you get just the standard glass? Seems unnecessary for us to pay the extra for the nano textured glass.
@serichsen Yes, because I only got the 256 GB model. The nano texture glass is only available with the 1 and 2 TB models. And even if I had gone for that big of an SSD, I would have stuck with the standard glass because the nano texture glass indeed doesn't do anything for us.
I do know someone that gets the 2 TB every year. It's a bit crazy. Now with iCloud storage, you don't even need that much storage in your phone. 256 is probably fine for both devices.
@vitallie I had one in an iPad Mini I tried out for a while, and it kept forgetting my fingerprints. I had to re-register them every other day, which became annoying quite quickly. And it didn't matter which finger. They worked for a few hours, then did no longer. I also found it awkward to use.
@vitallie Remember that this is the Touch ID sensor in the power button newer iPads have, not one in a home button like older models had. I never had issues with Touch ID in the home button, but the ones in the power button and my fingers don't seem to like each other. Besides I like Face ID.
Hey @Tutanota - any chance you can fix the font in your Linux desktop app? It's VERY hard to read, and can't be re-scaled... it honestly looks pretty bad. It's my number one issue right now.
I miss the days where if you had a problem, you could just look up a phone number or email of a company, and call or send. I don't really approve of all these companies directing you to a website full of support articles, submission tickets, and whatnot. Live chat's fine. But I want answers directly. It's even more frustrating if what you are looking for isn't even in the articles they offer. I understand they do it for the high volume of customers but, it's still disheartening.
I'm not sure I agree actually. I'm a bit of an autodidact; if I have a problem, I want to read up about it myself so I can fix it... myself. 100% get this isn't how everyone works obviously, and that definitely doesn't excuse poorly-written or blatantly useless inaccurate articles, but the problem there is just outsourcing support. That, or companies just not having it high on their to-do lists rather than the medium of the support itself. Shit support is shit support, no matter what form it comes in. I don't want to feel like I'm wasting someone else's time over the phone when I could solve the issue myself, and frankly 85% of the telephone support I've tried these days is just as useless as those slop articles.
Rubicon ObjC 0.5.3 has been released! This release adds initial Python 3.15 support, drops support for Python 3.9, and corrects a rare race condition that can occur when cancelling timers.
1. Rubicon is pure Python. This means it's much smaller, at the cost of being slightly slower at runtime 2. Rubicon works on iOS 3. Itโs been a while since I checked, but I *think* PyObjC doesn't have any asyncio integration built in. Rubicon definitely does.
Thanks for the comprehensive answer, it's always nice to see a software project account being staffed by humans who actually understand the project, not just a bot that posts about new releases :)
BTW, I think your approach to using (truly) native controls everywhere is very promising for accessibility, I really need to get into Toga once time permits.
