New features are coming to #LibreOffice, thanks to students in the Google Summer of Code! Better encryption, APNG support, a search field in the options dialog, and more: blog.documentfoundation.org/bl… #opensource #gsoc

Buenos días desde la Administración Pública.
Seguimos como siempre, defendiendo el interés público con neutralidad.

Hoy en el BOE, pensé que no iba a haber nada de interés y resulta que hay tres cosas curiosas. En primer lugar, la incoación del expediente para declarar la lengua de signos y cultura de las personas sordas en España como parte del patrimonio inmaterial. En segundo lugar, una sorpresa peculiar: se declara la falta de idoneidad de una fiscal sustituta y se le excluye para procesos selectivos. Me quedo con la duda de lo que habrá hecho. Como cosas menores, becas de la fundación universitaria San Pablo-CEU, y una sentencia del supremo que solo publica el fallo, pero creo que va de la prohibición de usar gafas para los exámenes de Guardia Civil.

Vale, loe he investigado y la cosa iba por ahí, pero no acerté de lleno. Es la tabla de exclusiones médicas de la orden que regula el acceso a los procesos selectivos para los centros de formación de cabos y guardias civiles. La exclusión anulada sale en el Anexo I, j, 9. Son lentes fáquicas, que por lo que he visto son implantes intraoculares.

My new favorite way of doing the whole #RSS thing is a combination of miniflux.app/ and lire on iOS set to sync mode. A great, #accessible combination that covers desktop and mobile consumption, and it's worked so well that I've finally fallen squarely into the habit of leveraging RSS feeds for news and events primarily.
For some good lists of RSS feeds to add, check out:

And don't forget Mastodon and YouTube have builtin RSS, too!

Made the mistake of keeping up with the Bad Place and got introduced to this fucking Banger of a tweet on @jntrnr's post.

I regret to inform you that despite:

  • fixing widespread industrial problems, including with the oldest and most popular language in existence;
  • writing full frameworks people study to get good at code;
  • authoring and drafting full-fledged fixes to the entire encoding situation for C and C++; and,
  • editing fucking ISO/IEC 9899:2023/4,

I am apparently a diversity hire, who's only here to be a drain on the Smart Rust People's resources.

Anyways I've blocked the person, because they wouldn't want to be reading stuff from a "diversity hire" like myself, would they?

On god I need to finish my own programming language, even if I'm the ONLY USER I will NEVER have to look these pricks in the eye EVER AGAIN.

For anyone interested in technology history. We were talking the other evening about the Grizzly Gulch game from Bavisoft. Here is my audio review of that recorded at the time.
Interesting points to note:
1. I was not a great game player at the time and am still not, and I seemed to have grasped the essential concepts of it quite well.
2. For the curious, this review was recorded and edited using my Marantz tape deck directly onto a C90 cassette. Audio production on a computer was not quick enough at that time. That is how I used to record all my computer audio tutorials.
3. In the scripted parts of the review, I can hear myself using the controls on my Braille Lite 40!

Когда-нибудь я сяду и напишу небольшое ревью на новую версию Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT2 с описанием различий с первой версией.

Но не сегодня.

Ну, кстати, звук я обозревать не буду.
Без оборудования это абсолютно бессмысленное дело - не хочу вещать про цыкающие верха и бархатистые басы. Надо идти в магазин и слушать просто. Либо идти на какой-нибудь reference-audio-analyzer.pro и там смотреть.

Тем более старые наушники у меня сейчас в велюровых амбушюрах, а новые в родных из кожзама - там и обхват ушей разный, и поглощение частот.

А вот чем наушники стали лучше - есть что рассказать. Благо я уже успел в первой версии даже кое-что починить и во второй версии этот недостаток тоже был исправлен.

Tak, novej #stephenking je konečně venku, takže hned zítra náběh do knihkupectví 👌
Letos by nakladatelství #Argo mělo vypustit ještě (pravděpodobně úplně) poslední dvě knihy od #CormacMcCarthy a povídkovou sbírku od #alanmoore
A ještě horší zpráva... Olymp od #dansimmons je OPĚT odložen... Tentokrát až na začátek října :mastosob:

It reads like you spent more time critiquing the spec than the developers spent implementing it. It rings of “but my protocol will be cooler and more exclusive” while ignoring why we have the current state. Gemini would be better off as a subset of the current web (http+tls+their silly media format). I have similar concerns around IPFS, where the p2p and content-addressed URIs encourage vs avoid censorship and surveillance (also the p2p base protocol is a free ddos net, wee).

As the #Wuhan #summer #heat approaches (it's only 33°C today, so we're not there yet) there's a couple of perfect comfort foods for coping with it. Today's lunch is #凉皮 (#liángpí, lit. "cold skin"), it's originally from #Shǎnxī (often spelled #Shaanxi to distinguish it from #Shānxī without having to use tone diacritics) but has since spread around pretty much the entire northern half of #China to all the provinces neighbouring it, including where I live in #Hubei. You can read about it here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liangpi

Served chilled, it is one of the best ways to combat summer heat, able somehow to cool better than the Wuhan-local #凉面 (#liángmiàn, lit. "cold noodles") despite those being chilled as well.

What you see here is the liangpi before it gets mixed up. Only barely visible in the shot (through the little loop of noodle at the very bottom) is the preserved egg that was added because I love #CenturyEggs.

no one has thus far said anything about this aspect so i will. if my memory serves right, this would have been the first keynote ever by a person of color. the sheer disrespect of how this was done is worse than what you think. does rust project really understand how this actually looks like? from where i see, the apology, if it ever comes out, has to feel real and people have to own this fiasco with reasons.

I deserve better than this opaque, institutional bickerings from a mature, open-source programming language.
