You might have noticed already: since a few weeks, #MapComplete has a totally new search experience.
If you search something, the matching locations are shown on the map. If it matches the name of a layer or a filter, you can also opt to show only this layer or to enable this filter. For examplr, on mapcomplete.org/food, one could search for 'sushi' to only see sushi restaurants and then for 'open now'. Or search with an emoji, such as ๐๐๐ฅ or ๐
We are officially in the 'fuck it' era of AI slop - AI-generated images are used to convey whatever partisan message suits the moment regardless of truth - for all the fear of deepfake-driven disinformation, proves fakes don't even need to be realistic 404media.co/hurricane-helene-aโฆ
Today's challenge -- working out why GObject Introspection bitfield objects return zero when the value is bigger than MAX_UINT32. The value is correct in the .gir file, just not in the fwupd python bindings.
King 5: "Poulsbo woman calls authorities after finding over 100 raccoons outside her home demanding food
The woman told deputies she started feeding raccoons around her house about 35 years ago without any problems. Six weeks ago the population of raccoons "exploded.""
When I lived in Santa Cruz Mtns, a couple in the cabin above me, had been feeding raccoons for 20 yearsโฆpeople begged them to stop but โtheyโre so cute & they like us!โ. Couple then went on a vacation, a cruise. Gone for 3 weeks. Came home and their cabin had been fully dismantled: Roof, windows, doors, deck, walls, cupboardsโฆ all of it, dismantled.

Western observers often express cynicism towards Chinaโs self-proclaimed โWhole-Process Peopleโs Democracyโ without fully grasping its distinct characteristics and underlying principles. While Western liberal democracies prioritize periodic elections, China argues this approach is inherently limited, susceptible to corruption, and ultimately fails to truly represent the peopleโs will.
@tink will be attending #DevFestNantes to share her talk: โThe Land That Time to Interactive Forgot.โ ๐
Sheโll explore how Time to Interactive (TTI) impacts web performance, accessibility, and user experience, offering insights into how we can all make the web faster and more inclusive.
Thunderbird for Android 8.0b2 has landed on the Google Play Store and on our Github Releases page. We've removed the existing folder class system, and would love feedback on this change from new and existing users. For more information on the release, see the release notes on GitHub:
Wait, what? I use the class functionality all the time. What have you replaced it with? In particular, I encounter these particular user stories regularly: * I want most of my folders to be hidden in most menus and contexts most of the time. * I need to be able to easily unhide the hidden folders when I need to access one that I rarely use. If you've removed the functionality that enables these without replacing it with something comparable, that's a huge functional regression.
thanks for deactivating the aggressive telemetry - it is always better to ask the users! IMHO this belongs also to the "Free" in FOSS projects - the freedom to choose if I want to share some data with you - no matter what my reasons are. Thanks
Will my beta version automatically update to the full release version through the updates from Google Play Store, or will I have to install the full release version, and remove the beta from my devices?
@houdave You'll need to install the full release version once it is out, and you can remove the beta if you would like - or keep it for future testing!
I don't like that I have to select the account and it cycles through the accounts instead of giving me a dropdown to select the account like it did in K9.
Expanding the account list to show the icons doesn't help much since I have multiple accounts on the same domain and the only identifying difference is the colour. Is there a way to customize this?
@derekmceachern Thanks for your feedback! There's also been considerable discussion of accessing the different accounts on the beta mailing list. As far as customizing this, I'll try to find an answer!
@ryan_harg Hi! This has been a requested enhancement. No idea yet on any possible timeline, but this would be the best place to follow any development: github.com/thunderbird/thunderโฆ
@T313C0mun1s7 This will need to be a manual switch over, because of Google Play Store policies. Current beta testers have been testing the switch from the most recent K-9 Mail Beta to the Thunderbird for Android beta, which is in the blog post: blog.thunderbird.net/2024/09/hโฆ
And it means that 275 of the apps at #IzzyOnDroid are now set up for #reproducibleBuilds โ or in relative numbers, 22.9% Hoping for the "forth egg" (25%) though it's quite a way to go, still ๐
I'm sure music isn't the only kind of specialty store that has a hard time sourcing products with french labelling. do they really want all these kinds of stores to shut down in Quebec, so that people have to sneak across to Ontario to buy these things?

Case in point: there's no way to build a backdoor that only the "good guys" can use.
When the entire technical community says that the EU's ChatControl legislation + similar pose serious cybersecurity threats, we're not exaggerating for effect.
Is there any chance we can encourage you to trend #NVIDIA when that's the company you mean, please? I know what their NASDAQ handle is, but #NVDA is much more widely known as the name of the screen reader we make and the #NVDA hashtag is very widely used for the screen reader. It will save both our communities polluting each other's feeds. If you'd like to find out more about the screen reader, our website is nvaccess.org/ - Thank you!
Thanks to the help of Alexey, this was finally achieved:
I can fit this into my day a lot better than the long ones. @
