A team of scientists and bakers in the Pacific Northwest is searching for ways to make whole wheat bread resilient to a warming world — and more delicious. kuow.org/stories/can-better-br… #KUOW #News
So... #Signal and #Wire, which both have issues, but not #Matrix / #XMPP? And for video, 2 #YouTube front ends and a proprietary YouTube clone, but no direct mention of #Peertube? And for Translation, the proprietary #Deepl, but no mention of the local and #Privacy respecting #Firefox #translate
I appreciate the intent of this post, but the research is... outdated at best.

Have tried to degoogle as much as possible but use family link to supervise my kids phones, so it might be a few years before I'm completely free of google and migrated to a murena phone .... which btw uses e/OS alternative to android OS.
Not sure Authy is a good option. They make it incredibly difficult to get your data back. When they discontinued their desktop app I had one hell of a time migrating away from them. Took days.
🌐🔒 Hey everyone! I'm 11 and super passionate about digital privacy! I use a bunch of cool alternatives like Tutanota for email, ProtonMail, and even Session for messaging. I love using privacy-focused search engines like Ecosia and Mojeek, and I avoid the big tech companies. I also use F-Droid for apps and keep my Android as private as possible. Digital privacy is super important, and I think schools should teach us about it! Let’s protect our info together! 💻✨ #DigitalPrivacy #PrivacyMatters
wow! I can replace glogle just by using Firefox, searx, signal, tuta, lineageOS, open street map, bitwarden, freeOTP AND vimeo?? I wonder why more people don't do this!
Don't forget the Aurora alternative google play store. I also use Linux and the X-lite stripped windows 10 version on my home PC's so I don't have That recall thing.
FWIW, the UI of the snipping tool is quite confusing with a screen reader, at least with NVDA.
What would be great is something like the UI for starting screen sharing in Zoom, with the application windows being list items you can select, and the options to capture system audio and mix in narration from the microphone.
Background from IA: "We are disappointed in today’s opinion about the Internet Archive’s digital lending of books that are available electronically elsewhere. We are reviewing the court’s opinion and will continue to defend the rights of #libraries to own, lend, and preserve books." blog.archive.org/2024/09/04/in…
Most notable to me: * The court ruled against controlled digital lending (#CDL), not just the short-lived and less-controlled National Emergency Library (#NEL). * The court found "market harm" to #publishers even tho pubs submitted no data on that harm. * The court recognized the right of conventional lending by print #libraries but (IMHO) waffled when trying to square its rationale with that right.
"What would you think if an author told you they would have written a book, but they wouldn’t bother because it would be available to be borrowed for free from a library? You’d probably think they were delusional. Yet that argument has now carried the day."
Update. "[University] #libraries across the country, from Carnegie Mellon…to the U of California system, turned to what’s known as [#ControlledDigitalLending, #CDL] in 2020, which gave students a way to borrow books that weren’t otherwise available. Those programs are small in scale and largely experimental but part of a broader shift in modernizing the university library. But the appeals court ruling could upend those programs." insidehighered.com/news/tech-i…

I did some quick research about Apple Inc.'s financials earlier today and figured I might as well post it here before closing those tabs:
Market Capitalization (aka marketcap) is the value of one share of a company multiplied by the number of shares in existence.
Apple's marketcap is currently sitting around 3.358 Trillion USD [1].
For context, this is approximately 183% of the marketcap of Alphabet (Google), which is 1.835 Trillion [2], or roughly 216% the expected 2025 budget of the US military
[3]As of the end of Q2 2024 Apple had 25.565 Billion USD in cash or cash equivalents
Hopefully some of these figures will offer some perspective to those who might otherwise stan for some of the world largest corporations as they announce their latest products
How is Matrix changing the way the Swedish public sector communicate? Kenneth and Anna will tell us everything about SAFOS at The Matrix Conference in Berlin next week!
Kenneth and Anna from Försäkringskassan, one of our customers, will be in Berlin on 20 Sept showcasing SAFOS, a cloud-based secure communications platform built on Matrix that sets a new standard for Sweden’s public sector.

Really need to finish up the bureaucracy and knowledge-base work necessary to "officially" launch Matrix at Linköping University.
We've been running it for internal communication for many years at this point after all, and it is open - albeit undocumented - for all employees and students.
If someone is able to run curl's test suite on Windows locally, maybe they can help to identify what makes several tests so slow and ultimately cause CI jobs to timeout and fail.
I've had the pleasure of mentoring two fantastic Outreachy interns over the summer. Together they completed two usability studies for the GNOME project. This is the first study, which tested a set of media apps (Loupe, Showtime and Decibels):
Есть один писатель-колумнист, которого я очень и очень люблю. Зовут его Джейсон Парджин, для друзей - Дэвид Вонг. Помимо книг, он много писал для сайта американского комедийного журнала Cracked, который я в свое время почитывал.
Его фишка в том, чтобы говорить максимально циничные вещи максимально бескомпромиссным и жестким языком, чтобы сделать читателя немного лучше как личность. Короче говоря, чувак наваливает базы по хардкору.
Один из его очерков, прочитанный еще в институте, несмотря на то, что его просто неприятно читать (даже скорее благодаря этому) на многие годы определил мое отношение к себе и к миру, вытянув меня буквально из бездны циничной апатии. Я регулярно его кидаю людям, которым надо услышать, Вот он: cracked.com/blog/6-harsh-truth…
Но в этот раз я хочу поговорить не о нем, а о другой статье.
Поскольку ссылку на нее я тоже кидаю часто - я подумал: а почему бы мне ее не перевести? И вот я взял и за часик с небольшим наварганил #перевод. Итак,
Když to je těžký. Včerejší návštěva Jablonce, kde jsem prošla celkem slušný kus cesty, a narazila jsem na tento skvost. A co hůř, na Libereckém nádraží každý billboard s Konečnou a jejím Stačilo. Opravdu asi 3 veliké tabule, kde vám koukala přímo na Perón. To je potom hodně těžký nejen s těmi #pirati. U nás na vesnici jen a pouze SPD a Motoristé. Chápu, ale nerozumím tomu, že piráti nechtějí mít ,,nelegální polep", ale to, že tady v Sudetech není ani nyní jediný plakát, banner, billboard je
@archos Přesně.. A když vjíždíme do našeho nedalekeho většího města (cca 7tis), tak hned za cedulí je obrovský billboard s SPD. A tohle je taky na facku⬇️článek z roku 21, a už tehdy ta hovada dělala přesně to samé co dělají i nyní. Na vývěsce u nás taky prelepuji cokoliv. liberecka.drbna.cz/zpravy/spol…
Hello :) We reviewed our server logs and there is no indication of any downtime on our end. Could you please let us know which ISP you are using and if you were using a VPN/Tor when the connection failure occurred? We are continuing to investigate the source of this issue.
🚲Um dos legados que vai deixar este mandato em Santiago de Compostela é o numero de novas ciclovias 👏 O reto não era difícil, porque em todos estes anos era uma matéria pendente. Todo um logro para um bipartito em minoria 💪
Ademais, muitas das obras não são grandes obras, mas pequenas intervenções de pintado, elevado de passos de peões...
Bom trabalho de Compostela Aberta (mobilidade) e Bloque Nacionalista Galego (obras)
