I've noticed that, for me and my wife at least, #Signal isn't always reliable for time sensitive messages. Even after exempting it from the Android power saving and everything it's almost like it goes to sleep sometimes and notifications don't pop until we open it up. The #XMPP app Conversations.im however is very reliable. Running a packet capture on my phone shows that when switching networks #Conversations immediately reconnects, but Signal doesn't, sometimes for several minutes.
La Fundación ONCE convoca una ayuda para opositores a los subgrupos A1 y A2 de cualquier Administración pública española. La ayuda se extiende a academia o preparador, transporte, alojamiento, materiales y herramientas, y es de hasta 5000 EUR. Requisitos: nacionalidad española, discapacidad del 33% o más, titulación universitaria (necesaria para el grupo A), y no estar trabajando ni tener prestaciones superiores a 15000 EUR. Fecha límite: 24 de octubre. Que bien me habría venido esto en su día. Más información: becas.fundaciononce.es/Paginas… #becas #oposiciones #discapacidad
Sí lo es. Tampoco se puede argumentar que sea porque el acceso a la Función Pública en general y a los puestos A1/A2 en paticular esté limitado a ciudadanos españoles.
This is my favourite episode so far. Kirsten found a collection of bizarre husband and wife facts from the 1890's and 1950's to read to us, and I react to them. Are any of them applicable these days, or are they all simply of their time? Which ones will make you stop in stunned horror or silence and exclaim 'What the actual?' Let us know.
I haven't found a way to export the youtube transcripts, and they're annoying to read with the timestamps and all. Text will work. Do you have them for the others? Might be worth putting them on the website.
Wil Wheaton is now five years older than Patrick Stewart was in the pilot of Star Trek the next generation. Have your bones demineralized and fallen apart yet?
Apple’s decision to put satellite connections in iPhones is already saving lives, and as Hurricane Milton threatens Florida, now is the time for every US iPhone user to learn how the system works.
I appreciate the smaller indie developers, particularly in the Apple world, who specialise in a certain field and do it well, and take pride in being accessible. Rogue Amoeba is one. Their audio products are one of the best advertisements for Mac. Agile Tortoise is another, with the fabulous Drafts app. And another is Flexibits, who make the Fantastical Calendar app. This is a sound investment for management of the several calendars I keep. And they care a lot about #accessibility. I use their Openings and proposals feature regularly in my professional life. Now they have added RSVP. Here’s the explanation from their blog. If you’ve not checked out Fantastical yet, I did a demo on Living Blindfully and they have plenty of videos and help guides. I highly recommend it.
#huge office 365 news. I Have some huge news here for those who are tired of paying for office 365 subscription every year. Microsoft just bought out office 2024 you pay once and it’s yours to keep or until Microsoft ends Support for the product. Office 2024 is 150 United States dollars and is available now. Here is a link that describes this new version of office and I feel that many here will be very excited not having to pay every year for office 365. pcworld.com/article/2475992/mi…
It's important to note that the non-subscription version of Office 2024 will only receive security updates for five years and will not receive feature updates. It also does not include the additional OneDrive storage that you receive from the M365 subscription.
The following is taken from a Microsoft blog post:
"Office 2024 comes in two editions. Office Home 2024 is $149.99 USD and includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote for one PC or Mac. Office Home & Business 2024 is $249.99 USD and comes with everything in Office Home 2024 plus Outlook and the rights to use the apps for commercial purposes. You can buy both editions from retailers worldwide and via Microsoft.com starting October 1, 2024. microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-…
@DavidGoldfield Thank you so much for this valuable info. It is really a shame that copilot pro does not come with Office 365 personal. I really enjoyed copilot pro however, to me it is very expensive for 20 United States dollars per month. It is a shame there are no other solutions that will integrate with word that work in a similar way to copilot pro that are accessible.
Correct; CoPilot Pro is a totally separate subscription from Microsoft 365. They may work well together but you don't get both by subscribing to just one service.

New breach: Internet Archive had 31M records breached last month including email address, screen name and bcrypt password hash. 54% were already in @haveibeenpwned. Read more: bleepingcomputer.com/news/secu…
prišiel aj jeden zo súrodencov, doniesol som mu to aby sa mohol v kľude najesť resp. rýchlo a viete čo urobil, asi to ochutnal a odišiel, je to pod schodami.. nebudem klamať keby som ho chcel mať doma
A few days ago I read this piece by @davidgerard about Eric Schmidt, formerly of Google, calling for burning all fossil fuels and letting climate change run without restraint for the sake of "AI" - pivot-to-ai.com/2024/10/06/eri…
On the first reading, I missed how Schmidt apparently has a new military contracting venture called "Istari".
Yet another person who managed to read Tolkien's legendarium and completely misunderstand everything in it.
I hear you loud and clear Nobel Prize, you don't want to be left off of the AI hype train.
Next will be a Nobel peace prize for "AI safety."
Don't they supposedly wait for decades before seeing the impact, like new drugs that were created or something like that, before awarding Nobel Prizes?
Internet Archive's "The Wayback Machine" has suffered a data breach after a threat actor compromised the website and stole a user authentication database containing 31 million unique records.
well done to everyone involved in making usb so complicated that now the only way to understand what it's doing is to put diagnostic screens on charging cables
just a really solid set of decisions all the way down
Someone is DDOSing the internet archive, so we've been down for hours. According to their twitter, they're doing it just to do it. Just because they can. No statement, no idea, no demands.
Meanwhile, we literally rescued 400,000 dissertations from being pulped.
as I have mentioned elsewhere I have worked fiercely on reducing memory calls and memory copies in curl code over the last few years, and I have come to realize that strncpy is often a marker for questionable code decisions, so I have worked on removing those questionable code paths.
As I have reduced the amount already before, the remaining few uses were not hard to just fix with better conditions and improved logic
yeah I have a fondness for K&R C but looking back many of its standard lib functions were a Bad Idea that at best only made sense for some brief "Garden of Eden" period in the world's software ecosystem
before any user could be a determined (and well-resourced) adversary or a mind bogglingly careless idiot. haha
while I understand that C was always ever meant as a relatively light abstraction, I still don't understand why native string handling was never incorporated. Dealing with strings is relevant in _so_ many use cases, that not having a sane and safe abstraction for it is just asking for trouble.
I think that's one of the first things Borland improved on in their derivates of Pascal.
