Nachdem ich Oktober 2022 die Verkehrspolitik in Paris aus nächster Nähe erlebt habe und nun London mit seiner Ultra Low Emission Zone ULEZ und seiner Citymaut, die zu messbaren und erlebbaren Verbesserungen führt (kaum Autos in der City), finde ich das Gewese ums Auto in Deutschland verblüffend bis peinlich. Wichtig: Die ruralen Gebiete von F und GB hängen nach wie vor sehr stark am Auto. Aber auch dort ist der Zuwachs an E-Autos deutlich. Zu ULEZ siehe u.a. mastodonapp.uk/@joaocosta/1128… 1/x


Zu wenig Platz in Städten? Ursache: Autos

#Lärm, der krank macht? Ursache: Autos

3000 jährliche #Verkehrstote? Ursache: Autos

Kinder, die nur auf Spielplätzen spielen können? Ursache: Autos

Immenser CO2-Ausstoß im Verkehr? Ursache: Autos

Behinderung von #Fußverkehr, #Radverkehr, #Rolliverkehr, #ÖPNV? Ursache: Autos

Zig-Milliarden Euro öffentliche Subventionen trotz allem obigen? Für: Autos

Für viele Probleme Ursache, für kaum Problem Lösung: #Autos

#Verkehrswende



Heute auf dem Grill: Für den Mann und die Kinder 3 Würstchen, frische Maiskolben, "bunter Mais" (ein Experiment vom Chinaladen), marinierte Möhrchen, Kartoffenspalten mit Rosmarin, Knobichampignons und ein Tomaten-Melonensalat mit Ziegenfeta.

Und dann erzählt der Professor, dass sein Schulkumpel aufgegeben hat, Vegetarier zu werden, weil die Eltern im Sommer so gerne grillen und er da nie satt wird.

Wie rücksichtslos können Eltern eigentlich sein?



Ah ah ah !

"Pour info j’ai vu des polémiques apparaître sur une soi disant moquerie hier lors de la cérémonie des JO. Renseignement pris la référence n'est pas du tout la Cène de Léonard de Vinci.

C'est le Festin des Dieux de Jan Harmensz van Biljert, peint vers 1635 et conservée au Musée Magnin à Dijon.

Les dieux de l'Olympe célèbrent le mariage de Thétis et Pélée ; au centre de la table, ce n'est pas le Christ, mais Apollon couronné. Bacchus-Dionysos est allongé au premier plan."

C'est dommage car j'adore les blasphèmes, surtout quand ils font rager les fachos. Comme quoi c'est vraiment nul les JOs.

Liebe Leute,

ich bin soeben auf meine bislang längste Fahrradreise aufgebrochen. Ich werde in den nächsten Monaten von Freiburg, über die Alpen, durch den Balkan, die Türkei & den Kaukasus bis ans Kaspische Meer nach Baku fahren, um dort 100 Tage und über 5000 km später im November von der nächsten Weltklimakonferenz, zu berichten & für das Fahrrad als “Zukunftstechnologie”, im Kampf gegen den Klimawandel, zu werben.
Ich werde mich immer mal wieder von der Reise melden❤️

Liebe Grüße, Ingwar

@BTyson no, that message is due to a faulty boot. Millions of screens displayed it long before Crowdstrike

Sensitive topic, but I feel strongly:

Some Christians were outraged at the Olympics opening ceremonies because they thought a brief scene mocked the Last Supper. In fact, the scene was an interpretation of the Feast of Dionysus. (The giant blue Greek God in the center of the table was a pretty obvious tell, I think.)

Japan, national morning news show:

An uninterrupted 10 minute segment about a new train running on a line to a popular vacation spot.

A journalist spends most of the segment being absolutely DELIGHTED by every single feature of this tastefully designed train. She sits in every class of car, tries every seat feature, eats a curry in the dining car, enjoys the view out of panorama windows. Arrives rested and gives us a whirlwind tour of town.

This is how you change car culture.






I'm looking for work!

I've worked on Mac apps like Growl and Adium, did QA and integration on Apple's Foundation framework, and developed custom analysis tools for Field Team 6. I've also done a wide variety of my own tools, mostly in Python, C, or Objective-C.

I live in SF; can do Bay Area commute or remote.

Yup. I absolutely loved Automenu, because it just showed how powerful batch files could be. I got it originally from the guy who ran our local radio shack. He actually came to visit me for a couple of hours a month or two ago.

Wow, that sounded cool. The first version of Openbook as actually called EasyScan and it was just a bunch of sophisticated batch files written by Noel Runnion.


Dear websites: Stop asking me to sign in with Google, especially when I have no reason to sign into your site. I thought we already learned our lesson on centralized authentication and it was supposed to be "Don't outsource authentication unless you have no other choice". I guess I should interpret the ubiquity of Google sign-in as confirmation that we as a society have learned absolutely nothing from the various centralization of authentication failures we've experienced over the last decade.

No love,

Me

When using #hashtags, I do understand they can cause issues for the visually impaired who are using #ScreenReaders. This is why I always use #camelCase or #PascalCase in all my hashtags. I have heard some users of screen readers say that putting all the hashtags at the end of a post is preferred. Is it because of the way readers work? I guess the reader might say "number" or "pound sign" in front of every hashtag, which could be awkward if there are a lot of them inline. #Accessibility
in reply to Kenneth J. Jaeger

as a #ScreenReader user myself, I'm happier if they are used inline when they make sense in the sentence. If you're talking about #Accessibility and want to tag it, that works. What causes the most issues I think are a long series of hashtags which, if they aren't at the end of a post, we have to listen through to know if there's more to hear.
in reply to Sean Randall

@cachondo Yeah, inline is good within reason and only if it makes sense, otherwise after the body text. Putting them at the start is a quick way to be muted.
in reply to Sean Randall

@cachondo Depends on discussion. If I'm talking about #accessibility and put the hashtag there, yes. But if the text has more than 2-3 hashtag in same sentence, it may sound quite unfriendly. Not pleasant to read "I am working on hashtag WordPress to improve its hashtag accessibility as I find hashtag diversity and hashtag inclusion an essential value for civilized hashtag society..."
in reply to Elena Brescacin

@talksina @cachondo i personally don't see anything wrong with this. I'd rather hashtags be inline than all stacked at the end, especially if some of the hashtagged words are already in the post.
in reply to aaron

@fireborn @talksina There's surely a balance, though. Some people add tens of tags. It gets crazy if those are inline. If they are all meaningful words with just the octothorp and you hold off on your keywords for indexing or searches at the end, I think that's the best choice.
in reply to Sean Randall

@cachondo @talksina If they're just for adding keywords to find the post by then putting them at the end makes sence.
in reply to Sean Randall

@cachondo @fireborn @talksina I have to admit, I do sometimes try to work an extra tag or two into the middle of a post, but if they don't really fit, I will put them at the end. I just don't like having a big pile of #hashtags at the end of a post. It starts to feel like #HashtagSpam (if that is a thing).


A je tu zase #copyrightiade prokazující, že ČT24 má ve skutečnosti dvě varianty - ta lepší je ta v DVB-T2, ta horší je pak na satelitu a internetu.

Ale ostatně co by člověk čekal od akce, která si prolobovala svou vlastní instanci autorského zákona:

Vždycky si říkám, kdo bude další se svým vlastním zákonem na "ochranu symboliky."

A to chtějí aby poplatky platil každý, kdo má přístup k internetu. A pak dostane takto osekanou službu…
in reply to Marián Kyral

poplatky bych si toho radši netahal. Ostatně ten problém není na straně ČT, jako spíš na straně výboru-jehož-jméno-je-zakázáno-vyslovit, který si pod rouškou "ochrany symboliky" proloboval neskutečně drakonický copyright a kterému to bohužel stále prochází.

@mkyral Pak ale nemůžou chtít za internetovou verzi stejné poplatky jako ze terrestriál, protože nenabízejí shodný obsah.
in reply to Tritol

@tritol128 @mkyral to je nesmyslný argument. Veřejná služba funguje jako celek. To neznamená, že všechen obsah musí být vždy dostupný všemi kanály.

Ostatně ČT taky vyrábí třeba několik pořadů exkluzivně pro iVysílání, takže lidé, co nemají internet, je neuvidí. To ale neznamená, že by měli platit míň.

in reply to Ondřej Caletka

@tritol128 @mkyral Co několik pořadů... V podstatě všechny dodatečné sportovní kanály (dnes pod hlavičkou ČT Sport Plus) jsou čistě internetové. Často jich běží i několik souběžně, na terestrice to nikde není.

The first one is a custom @MapComplete theme, but @MapComplete does more stuff with Wikidata. There biggest (and coolest) integration is mapcomplete.org/etymology; but many themes also show and ask for relevant wikidata items (such as mapcomplete.org/artwork and mapcomplete.org/memorials showing e.g. artists, the article about the artwork or for memorials whom is buried there)


I was very sad to hear the news related to AppleVis yesterday. This site has been a huge resource for the last 14 years.

In 2010 I created a blog called the iAccessibility Report to review iOS apps for accessibility as well, and that site is now just called iAccessibility. iAccessibility is being built to have many of the same community features as AppleVis, so that we can continue to provide resources to those who are wanting to learn more about iOS, and Apple products.

People often confuse how characters feel with what an author is trying to communicate, and it's really frustrating.

Thoughts on the reaction to MHA's ending
People get really upset when everything isn't wrapped up in a neat little bow. When a character doesn't succeed in 100% of their goals. To them, trying and failing means there was no point trying at all.

There's also a lot of gnashing of teeth if the main hero isn't revered until the end of time, with every other character constantly singing them praises.

Back in March I scanned through a terabyte of old geocities sites with the goal of finding *all* the 88x31 buttons. Recently, I realised that I didn't scan for all the geocities subsites (e.g. de.geocities.com, br.geocities.com, etc). I've fixed that mistake and have added 1.8k new 88x31 buttons from Germany, Brazil, Hong Kong and many more international sites. Feel free to explore the updated site or download the zipped button archive (31k buttons, 156MB)
