Me siento tentado de votar a la derecha. Al menos, aparte de ser unos hijos de puta, también lo parecen, que es casi tan importante como lo primero.

Dear geek/libre comrades, I have a queer-stion for you: Do we know if the first communities -in the 80's and 90's- around the development of critical computing (?) and its evolution towards free software were related to the homosexual liberation movement and the fight against AIDS? Thanks :unwanted_love:

In seinem 1927 (!) erschienenen Buch beklagt sich Kurt Floericke, wie furchtbar die Tierwelt in den letzten 40 Jahren "verarmt und verödet" ist. Die Schuld dafür weist er hauptsächlich dem "Siegeszug von Industrie und Technik" zu.

Surprise…

Das eBook dazu kommt die Tage mit der nächsten Runde bei ebooks.qumran.org/ an. Der Titel: "Aussterbende Tiere"…

#naturschutz #literatur

Textauszug aus einem 1927 erschienenen Buch: "Wer gleich dem Verfasser die freilebende Tierwelt unseres Vaterlandes vier Jahrzehnte lang fleißig und liebevoll beobachtet hat, der wird tief erschrocken sein darüber, wie furchtbar sie innerhalb dieser Zeitspanne, die doch vom naturgeschichtlichen Standpunkte aus nur als winzig bezeichnet werden kann, verarmt und verödet ist. Wir wissen alle, daß die sogenannte menschliche Kultur mit ihren mancherlei unangenehmen Begleiterscheinungen und Auswüchsen die Hauptschuld an dieser unaufhaltsam sich vollziehenden Veränderung trägt, und zur Abwendung des Schlimmsten ist ja als notwendiges Gegengewicht gegen den Siegeszug von Industrie und Technik die Naturschutzbewegung ins Leben getreten, die erfreulicherweise bereits weite Kreise unseres Volkes erfaßt hat. Es ist dringend zu wünschen und zu hoffen, daß es ihr gelingen möge, wenigstens kärgliche Reste einstiger Herrlichkeit in großen Naturschutzparken oder durch strenge und vernünftige Gesetzesvorschriften, die aber nicht nur auf dem Papier stehen dürfen, in letzter Stunde zu retten und den kommenden Geschlechtern zu erhalten."

Can you believe that a GitHub issue I opened six years ago in the depths of “the long dark tea-time of the soul” has had such a cascading impact?
It has ultimately led to the formation of a dedicated accessibility team for @django
This is a moment that truly highlights the power of open source and everything it represents.
I'm so grateful for this community 💙

For me personally – this was a definite inflection point in my career, as I started investing way more into accessibility expertise. For Wagtail, we followed this with a project for a large govt agency to do even more testing and improvements of the CMS admin. Then got our accessibility team started. Then the accessibility team for @django. An #ATAG audit for Wagtail. Yearly reporting on our accessibility. There’s a long way to go but the journey’s been great already 🌈

After 6 years – we finally got to close our longest-running #accessibility ticket in Wagtail, github.com/wagtail/wagtail/iss…. Thank you @mush42 for reporting this initially. We benefitted immensely from your accessibility expertise and first-hand experience with a screen reader ❤️

This was the ticket I created our "accessibility" ticket triage label for. 38 of those still opened, 165 closed. Kick-ass!

I didn't think this was possible but the real disappointment of the day isn't Apple Intelligence – it's the "updated" Magic accessories.

They literally just…swapped the Lightning port for USB-C. No multi-device pairing, no design changes, nothing else.

The mouse still has the charging port at the bottom too. 😂

Happens here in Canada w/ Post Merdia [not a typo, they're quite literally shit], as almost all of Canadian media have decided that the leader of the official opposition is justified in not obtaining a security clearance and that the LPC needs a new leader.

MSM DRIVES THE NARRATIVE.

Pollsters asking, on a scale of 1 to 10 how much I hate Trudeau? [I don't]

None ask about how concerned Canadians are about PP NOT having a security clearance.

Finally got the chance to dig more into this story ”Researchers say an AI-powered transcription tool used in hospitals invents things no one ever said”

abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/re…

What’s confusing is that it mixes anecdotal evidence with studies, on diff versions of Whisper, wrapped in a range of different software, using a variety of audio types. Audio quality, length, number of voices, speech patterns all matter a lot. And the longer the recording the more likely it is to have errors
