oookay.
So not only do we believe that Harry Potter is magically descended from dragons, but Draco Malfoy is a Gay veela?.

Also story takes a spot for the number of times one can misspell Avada Kedavra. Lots of things misspelled lots of times across the fandom, (like Fidelius ) but it's the great AK in this silly fanfic.

while we've managed to scrimp and save to make it to kitsune tails' release day, releasing august 1st means we won't see any money for almost 2 months until its the end of september

our other games are currently on sale on itch at eniko.itch.io/ and steam at store.steampowered.com/bundle/… and buying some or all of them would help tremendously

EDIT: just for clarity this is a "we're worried about making rent" situation and not "oh no the business' coffers are looking a little bit empty"

It turns out Google Chrome ships a default, hidden extension that allows code on `*.google.com` access to private APIs, including your current CPU usage

You can test it out by pasting the following into your Chrome DevTools console on any Google page:

chrome.runtime.sendMessage(
"nkeimhogjdpnpccoofpliimaahmaaome",
{ method: "cpu.getInfo" },
(response) => {
console.log(JSON.stringify(response, null, 2));
},

Next week I will travel to #GUADEC #GUADEC2024 to Denver, CO, in the US.

Perhaps some of you have read my #OpenPrinting News from May where I tell that 2004 was a magic year and so we have a lot 20th anniversaries in FOSS now.

And the 2 keynotes on GUADEC are about 2 of them: Ryan Sipes, CEO of #Thunderbird @thunderbird and Stephanie Taylor, program lead of #GSoC!

what's new? :) I guess the snap will update automatically at some point?
in reply to Jami

The linux desktop app is hanging after not even 5 minutes of use. There is no way to kill the process because it somehow blocks entire desktop environment, except for the rebooting of the whole machine.
There are also problems with the latest version of the android app. The message writing window/field is not visible from behind the keyboard. It doesn't jump up over it. There are some issues with the adding of the new contacts - "waiting for the peer message" info appears only.

... ein #Tipp für #Thunderbird-User:

wenn euer Arbeitgeber euch mit 3000 nutzlosen Mails am Tag zuballert, die über zahllose Mailinglisten von unterschiedlichen Personen geschickt werden, hilft ggf. folgender Trick.

Erzeugt einen #Mailfilter, der Mails, die nicht eure Mailadresse als TO, CC oder BCC enthalten (also die an eine Liste geschickt werden), in einen Ordner für nutzloses ZEUGS verschiebt.

Wenn ihr mehrere Mail-Adressen oder Aliase habt, müsst ihr diese auf gleiche weise dem Filter beibringen und "Alle Bedingungen enthalten" anklicken.

Falls ihr noch andere Filter habt, schiebt den ZEUGS-Filter ganz nach unten, sodass er quasi als letzter Filter verarbeitet wird.

A quick look at the Accessibility Options of the Android operating system accessibleandroid.com/a-quick-…



So my local library's makerspace offered a free event where they brought in a bunch of old tower computers, printers, game consoles, etc., - laid out a bunch of iFixit toolkits - and let everyone (kids and adults alike) take everything apart!!!

One kid was hesitant because they didn't want to break anything and the library staff were like, none of it works. We're recycling and throwing everything out afterwards! Go hog wild, you won't get in trouble! You're meant to break it and take it apart!

The kid was absolutely enthusiastic and went to town!

I got to be a kid again and go into detail about all the computer parts and what each of the hardware did. It was awesome watching my children and other kids and adults interact, share tools, show off what they found.

I spoke with the organizer afterwards and asked if this was a regular thing and he said that he didn't have enough old equipment to make it regular. I laughed and said all of my friends have CLOSETS FULL OF THIS STUFF and the idea of giving it to a bunch of kids and adults to play with would bring joy and meaning to their life, lol!

I gave him the time to meet up with @fxbghackers and told him to make a community announcement about needing old electronics for donation to take apart and he'd get truck loads.

Just another way community helps each other out. This is post scarcity education.

You'd be joining a terrific team at a terrific time. And as one of I think 3 people who've had the role previously, I can attest to it being a great opportunity with huge impact.

Also - if past experience is any guide, despite a limit of 400 applications, this posting could still close very soon. So if you are interested in applying, get it in *today*!

this is nothing. Last week I was wondering why the customer portal of Dutch railways refuses generating the list of transactions in PDF.

After confirming that only my travel cards are affected, I remembered that I recently gave friendly names to my travel cards. 🤭



This article highlights the accessibility barriers found on websites promoting tourism for European smart cities. None of the websites conformed to WCAG 2.1. The web pages need to be more accessible and effectively communicate the physical accessibility features that the cities offer potential tourists with disabilities. They are losing potential customers because of these issues. #accessibility emerald.com/insight/content/do…

Woooot! Thanks for checking out the beta and joining the 128 party a little early!
in reply to Thunderbird: Free Your Inbox

The only true hardship of testing Thunderbird beta is that the Toggle Word Wrap add-on is no longer compatible:

addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/t…

I depend on it when writing text emails containing code or formatted tables.

It's a niche usecase (mostly coders), but would be nice to have this as a built-in editor feature.

Pretty please from your loyal user and supporter? 😇🙏



Hey @thunderbird this should be a regular menu item. I have missed getting my overflowing septic tank emptied because of this feature you have made the default (causing me to miss the email where they were asking me for confirmation, because it was hidden away in a thread).
in reply to Thunderbird: Free Your Inbox

No, because the vast majority of emails in my inbox are not part of a thread, and also remain unread (they're usually automatically generated; most of the time the subject and sender tells me all I need to know). Most humans I know use other platforms (Signal etc) to have conversations, and I'll have to search my email for the two people I occasionally email with to see if I've missed their messages since the default changed.
