Just got GNOME Mobile 46 built and running in @postmarketOS on my OP6, here at #GUADEC2024 in Denver, so the folks in Berlin aren't the only ones that can try it out!

Come find me at the BoFs tomorrow if you want to play with it!

Thanks @cas for the help getting it building!

Notes from Nerdsville.

Since I started watching all the classic Doctor Who espisodes in order, I've come to appreciate the quiet horror of the first Cybermen.

With minimal paraphernalia, and face coverings like bandages, they're easily the most creepy, evoking the sort of body horror their increasingly shiny descendants have lost. The weird, elongated pronunciation adds to the effect.

Bill Potts transforms into one of these monsters in The Doctor Fails.

I agree. I've always found the voices of those earlier Cybermen to be far more horrifying. Some of the later ones almost sound like they're enjoying themselves; listen to them in Earthshock and the Five Doctors.


Did you know? The menu theme for the old Monkey Business audio game is a MIDI file called rastamon from Passport Designs. Here's my attempt at replicating the render of the file that appears in the game. As played on the S-YXG50 VSTi, with the 2 mb ROM and XGLite enabled. Thanks to @pitermach for the initial discovery.

We are pleased to announce that we got selected in another funding round by the EU’s NGI via the @NLnet Foundation @NGI0 Entrust Fund to work on some important features in Monal: nlnet.nl/project/Monal-IM-UI/

In short this consists of the following tasks (in no special order):
Implement Dialpad, Rewrite Chat UI, Implement Message Reactions, Rich Replies and Stickers, XSF work and a documentation of Monal's internals

#monal #ios #macos #xmpp #nlnet



This coming Friday, July 26th, is the one year birthday of a major accessibility issue in documentation for website developers being pointed out, and little has been done.

Let's put it to bed without birthday cake.

Brain cancer has removed my ability to help, but I hope it's possible. If you've written HTML or CSS take the time to read over the issue, this is important.

Boosts appreciated 💜

TIL that a twitch streamer and youtuber by the name of Masayoshi decided to test something out on his livestream a year ago telling people in chat to type “im 12” and, long story short over 100 twitch accounts were perma banned for “being underage” thanks to twitch’s bots thinking that were underage

Aira Officially Launches Remote Incident Manager Integration, Making On-Demand Remote Visual Assistance Fully Accessible! pneumasolutions.com/aira-offic…
in reply to Jessica Dail

@KE8UPE RIM is free if you're the person who is receiving assistance. I don't know if AIRA's free tier allowing for daily five-minute calls provides this capability so it would be better to ask them about this. Even if it did, you would be pretty limited as to how much help you could receive because of the brief time allowed per day. Now if Be My Eyes had agents who could do it that would be pretty amazing.

We could generally use anybody interested in web development or design of basically any skill level to take interest in our websites. This is a place where we don’t have a very active community. Our web presence is maintained but it isn’t vibrant and exciting. Great opportunity for some excited young people to take ownership!

Do you think reCaptcha is annoying? Then you haven't encountered OpenAI's captcha...

You have to solve 20 puzzles, by clicking on left and right arrows to select the one correct image from 7 options.

Frak it, giving up...

Náš projekt Pomáháme.Digital vyhrál první cenu Evropské komise za digitální inkluzi. Mám z toho velkou radost – mimo jiné mě těší, že nevyhrála nějaká vyhajpovaná AI břečka, ale technicky konzervativní projekt, jehož hodnota je především v dobrém výzkumu a dobrém nápadu – tedy že pokud chceme zlepšit situaci digitálně vyloučených lidí, můžeme do nich digitální kompetence vpašovat osmózou z pracovníků a pracovnic v sociálních službách :) blog.cesko.digital/2024/07/cis…

@matt Yeah, it's 100% no-frills... I just wanted to check something out. Currently watching all the various fedarated instances crawling the URL - there are many!


Remember how my UK trip was cut short by COVID last month?

Well. I have four travel days left on my Interrail ticket, and I'm gonna use them! :D

That was certainly refreshing! :)

Oh, I learned that Budapest grew together from two smaller cities, Buda and Pest! It used to be called "Pest-Buda" at some point!



As expected after their customer survey, @protonprivacy released a "AI mail writing bullshit assistant".

On Reddit, two kinds of reactions:

1. The negatives: asking about the privacy, the ecological impact, the money/time spent on this instead of other features.

2. The positives: thanking the developers for not enabling the feature by default.

Despite this, I’m sure people at Proton are convinced that this one the most important/urgent thing the Email world needed.

Hi, check out this guy's website in case you want to change service. Lots of suggestions of privacy-protecting services, and he is quite rigorous in his selections: digdeeper.club/
