The war is over, but my wounds are still open. My home was destroyed. I lost two girls. I can no longer live here. Only bad memories surround me. I live in harsh humanitarian conditions. I am not asking for the impossible. Just remember me. Remember my child Ibrahim. I just want to keep him warm, protect him, and save him from all this hell.🙏💔🥺 chuffed.org/project/161145 #Gaza #Palestine #GazaVerified #israel #StopIsrael #StopTheGenocide #fediAid #mutualAid @gvenema @kathimmel @lashman
I hate Roku but whoever designed their "Roku City/skyline" screensaver did a crazy good job. You can sit there for a long time and a spot a ton of references to different movies and TV shows. They're hidden everywhere
Catima is a simple app for store discount cards, event tickets and more.
This release fixes a regression introduced in 2.41.5 causing the manual barcode selection screen to only show empty squares and makes URLs in card IDs clickable in the "more info" pop up.
Hopefully this truly is the last release with Android 5 support. I guess nobody minds me breaking my promise on removing Android 5 support several times though.
@amy Oh that's easy just drop github.com/CatimaLoyalty/Andro… from your fork and maintain Android 5-compatible forks of the official Google libraries which dropped Android 5 support for all eternity!

Ever driven the same car or used the same camera or power drill for 8-10 years and thought: "I wish all these buttons and levers were suddenly in different places and did different things"?

It automatically adjusts depending on how often the source posts articles. Presumably the idea is to avoid sending frequent requests to small servers that rarely publish. This does mean that if an account only publishes once a month or so, it'll probably take a day or so before you see the article.
It used to be configurable on a per-feed basis, but looking now I think that setting went away. It can still be configured in the database I believe.
The way Friendica does RSS polling is pretty broken. You're supposed to make conditional requests so that the feed only needs to be built when it genuinely has something new, and you're supposed to respect the retry time. That way you can request much more frequently without overloading the server. But implementing that would require database schema changes.
I just found adjustPollFrequency() in the source which adjusts the feed "rating" based on the number of recent posts.
The feed I was looking at has a rating of 8 (polling once a day) but other feeds I have lower ratings (more frequently polled). Thats consistent with what I see.
@msfjarvis I really thought I finally got the 2.41.0 change really properly fixed, but no, right after I decide "okay, all is good, I can remove Android 5 support and just relax and work on new stuff" someone reports (and fixes!) a critical regression I didn't even notice 🥲
Dieser Tag beinhaltete die Erkenntnis, das gute Freundin nicht gleichbedeutend ist mit Safe Person. Und die Frage, ob das funktioniert. Stand jetzt führte das dazu, dass der Meltdown so schlimm war, dass der Mann es nicht aushalten konnte und raus ging. Und ich weiß jetzt halt auch nicht. Ich will dass das aufhört. Alles.
I previously framed the resistance against copyright as a tragedy in three parts, from anti-copyright to free software and copyleft to free culture and the so-called creative commons. But this fourth act is tragicomic. AI as Détournement.
I can officially say, dev talk went well, and I'm on a great path to Senior Engineership. But I'm still very much considering nuking the entire NV Speech Repository and saying fuck it I'm done. Not sure. It's very, very tempting. Just blow it all away and close it, never work on it again and maybe someone will maintain it. But I'm sure every developer has that feeling in a project. It's not that I don't like harsh or bad feedback, it's that I feel like that feedback will always be there, for years, months, when you're making a synthesizer like that, so I'm just on this constant hamster wheel of failures? Sigh. Not sure. That's how it makes me feel honestly.
Yay! I am glad for you! Here is to much more success and many successful projects. And you should be happy, if you feel like you need to close off something, stop working on it for a while, give yourself a break, as much as you need, even if it might turn into a forever break from that thing, who knows, one day you might remember to work on it again. You should be your priority first. No one will or should blame you for not working on something, especially if you're the one and only person working on it, to be fair.
Someone will always complain about something, whether it's a reasonable complaint or not, especially in this community sadly. I just think it's cool when people like you, add-on devs, etc, put in the time to try to make this place a little better, so for that I say, thank you
@startrek2025 this is great to hear. Yeah, improvements come incrementally and not all at once sadly. I want to take a little break but then I feel like the feedback piles up and I have this itch to fix them all. Which is why we've added stuff like TrillModulation so you can make this thing now roll it's R's for 300 seconds if you wanted to (not recommended though.) Stuff like that. People send it in, and that itch really comes back to solve the problem. Whether with or without AI then I persist until it's solved, it's just how I tend to work.
There will always be angry people, and I think that just gets amplified with speech synths, where some people have very specific ideas of how they should sound and act. Hey if they don't like it, they can make their own.You're doing great stuff.

Our fridge died, so I had to rush-buy a beer fridge at 10AM the other night. Stuck a #UniFi #SuperLink multi-sensor in it... the fridge's display says it's at 3 degrees, but evidently it is not:
I don't know if it sucks, I just know there were no bangers that make me want to hear a specific track again. I can't even name a single track from it right now.
It was definitely TOOL. But that's just not enough.

Is there a Canadian source for printed tshirts like teepublic? I need new Pride shirts and I’m not buying American anymore. Do I have to make my own design and take it to the store in the mall?
Good morning all. I'm waiting for a grocery delivery today. Can't imagine how busy the grocery stores are now. We could see up to 14 inches of snow with this storm. Today, I got a package from UPS, left at our door, addressed to someone at a completely different address. I read the address with my phone, searched and found the owner's phone number. I called and the package owner's wife picked up the box. Not much going on this weekend except the possible storm arrival. For all impacted, stay safe.
