curl issue #14620 in which we find out that a tiny CDN naming itself "Google Frontend" has a faulty HTTP/2 implementation in regard to 4xx responses.

Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon

After mulling over it for close to 14 years, it seems Microsoft is finally ready to kill off the Windows Control Panel soon. An official confirmation has been posted on its website.

@vol4life8657 While the Settings app is certainly different from the old-school dialogs found in the Control Panel, I do find the Settings app to be accessible. Not only that but using the Settings app's search box makes it easy to find a specific setting that you want to change, without the need to wander around and drill down into one set of options after another. Pressing Ctrl+E moves focus to the search box once you're in the Settings app.

Thanks to the @libreoffice Team. I was on #froscon19 last weekend and the representatives there pointed me to the right direction solving my problem concerning keyboard shortcuts! 👍

For everyone else: you can assign a keyboard shortcut for styles, but it you have to go to the specific section down the list. I wasn't aware of that, I just notices the shortcuts stopped working.

I'd really like to read a well researched article that sums up how Linux distros reacted to the massive influx of #Linux #kernel CVE that started ~half a year – both for their #LinuxKernel packages and their live-patching offerings.

But I guess that is an enormous amount of work that no media outlet in this world is willing to pay anyone for writing. 😕

After long years of maintaining the changelog, commit messages and release notes by hand, we have finally implemented a system where we use the merge request commit title and description as input to customized gitchangelog[1] and there’s only a single source of truth and that’s git. The current round of BIND 9 releases is the first one to use this new process.

Potentially way too late (as usual), but I've just released #TouchBarSpeak: an app that speaks the name of escape and F1–F12 keys when they're pressed once, and actually activates them when they're pressed twice quickly.
Originally called NSFKeys, and originally made as an experiment during the Intel Macbook/Touch Bar/Boot Camp era, rewritten this month, the app is meant to make using a touch bar on Windows more accessible.
Maybe it could still be useful?
I have also updated Capbeeper, fixing the double tray menu open bug, featuring slight sound volume adjustments, and (thanks to TouchBarSpeak), the “Run as admin” feature/option, accessible from the systray menu.
I hope any of this is useful, if it sounds like so, feel free to check things out.

Hey @Tusky, I am eagerly waiting for you to make a new release including PR github.com/tuskyapp/Tusky/pull…

I am affected by that bug that seems to have been reported multiple times by other people as different issues. This was already merged into "develop". When can a release be expected?

Thanks for your ongoing work on this complex app! 😍

@brabitom .... je to tak 🧐 🤦‍♀️ . No a co budu povídat o frustraci když nahlásím Googlu podvodnou reklamu , kterou zveřejňují neověřenému inzerentovi , a dočkám se od nich odpovědi že ji prověřili a prý neporušuje jejich zásady ..... za to by měl stát tyhle firmy jako Alphabet , Meta a další udělat spoluzodpovědnými za škody které jimi zveřejňované reklamy způsobí

A new release of #Multiplex, the app that lets you watch torrents together in a way similar to Apple's SharePlay and Amazon's Prime Video Watch Party, is out!

This brings the latest and greatest #GNOME and #libadwaita technologies, modernizes the underlying dependencies, enhances accessibility, and makes it easier to contribute to the project with improved contributor documentation and a rewrite of the UI markup!

And more is to come soon-ish, so stay tuned 🥳

If you missed it yesterday, I wrote a little about one aspect of this week’s DNC you likely won’t hear about on CNN or MSNBC or ABC or any other mainstream news org: accessibility.

I talked to VITAC general manager Doug Karlovits all about it.

Inside VITAC’s Role In Making The Democratic National Convention ‘The Most Accessible’ In History

One aspect of the DNC you likely won’t hear anything about in most, if not all, mainstream news coverage is the accessibility of it.
