Basically he advocates that a retaliation with the US fucking trade treaties that nation void the anti-circumvention laws. That's the very short version.

Good advice in this post, critical in the age of AI: “you should always be at your most suspicious online when someone is baiting you into outrage.”
Edit: Erledigt, danke euch! Ein lieber Mensch gibt mir seine. 🥰
😭 Noooo. Hat jemand diese Tasse von den @MRMCD 2024 im Schrank stehen und braucht sie nicht? Ich würde mich extrem freuen. Tausche z.B. auch gern gegen die von 2019 oder 2025. Es ist eine meiner Lieblingstassen gewesen, weil ich Größe, Form und Farbe so schön finde.
Edit: es hat sich jemand gemeldet, vllt wird eine aus ihrem Keller-Dasein erlöst. 🤞

shaqgui.exe – a simple application that listens to a selected input or output of your computer and saves whatever it recognizes to a file.
2.
shaqfilegui.exe – do you have old radio shows archived somewhere and want to know which songs were played in them? This app will definitely help.
3.
shaqcast.exe – something for radio broadcasters who play music from CDs, vinyl, etc., and want to send the titles of the tracks they’re playing to a server. For now it supports Shoutcast; if needed, I can add support for Icecast as well.
Everything is accessible with screen readers:

You can download the programs here:

Feel like you could add something, improve it, or help with development? I’m open to pull requests.

Happy testing!
Seeking recommendations for a reliable, accessible platform to host a support/discussion email list/listserv/snapshot of the 90's with around 1000 members. We're with GroupsIO right now but I'm tired of their in-browser inaccessibility. Cheap would be brilliant as my group doesn't directly make money, can pay something for solid service, accessibility and responsive support though.
I probably don't fancy self-hosting this much traffic.
Boosts appreciated.

"I will never use Flatpaks because I have to type `flatpak run com.example.Application`. It's insane Flatpak developers don't change it!"
Except you can add `/var/lib/flatpak/exports/bin` to your $PATH. This way, you can type `com.example.Application` in your terminal, dmenu, everywhere. Also if you aren't using completions and insist on doing everything in the terminal, you have bigger problems.

I don't think you should be able to claim your (macos) app is accessible with a screen reader if I have to learn app specific keyboard combos to effectively navigate to read things that a sighted mouse user would just click and scroll to find.
Tonight's frustration culprit: Discord. Which to be honest I find pretty bafflingly bad visually as well.

Opin vasta pari päivää sitten, että hunsvotti tarkoittaa koiranvittua, enkä voi olla enää ajattelematta sitä.
Tai siis, hunsvotti on lainattu saksasta koiranvittua tarkoittavasta sanasta, mutta merkitykset toki muuttuvat ajan myötä.
The anti-commercial bias in much countercultural and activist thought is self-defeating by design, and is actually a product of internalized bourgeois ideology.
Veblen's Theory of the Leisure Class gave us terms like conspicuous consumption and conspicuous waste.

The doctor tells the man to bring his wife in so he can talk to her.
So the wife comes into the doctors office and the doctor asks her what's wrong and why doesn't she want to have sex with her husband anymore.
The wife tells him. "For the past 6 months, every morning I take a cab to work. I don't have any money, so the cab driver asks me. 'So are you going to pay today or what?' so I take a 'or what'. When I get to work I'm late so the boss asks me, 'So are we going to write this down in the book or what?' so I take a 'or what'. Back home again I take the cab and again I don't have any money so the cab driver asks me again, 'So are you going to pay this time or what?' so again I take a 'or what'. So you see doc when I get home I'm all tired out and I don't want it any more."
The doctor thinks for a second and then turns to the wife and says "So are we going to tell your husband or what?" 🤣

#IzzyOnDroid is about community. That's why we don't want our #FOSDEM visit to be just about us, but also about all the amazing apps that make IzzyOnDroid so great.
Do you have an app that's available on IzzyOnDroid? Bring some stickers with you to FOSDEM and drop them off at our booth! We'll make sure to display them so your users can pick some up!
