The image is a statement from President Donald J. Trump, dated November 12, 2024. It features a logo at the top with the words "TRUMP VANCE TRANSITION" in blue and red letters, with five red stars above the word "TRUMP."
The statement announces that Elon Musk, in collaboration with Vivek Ramaswamy, will lead the Department of Government Efficiency, abbreviated as "DOGE." The goal is to dismantle government bureaucracy, reduce regulations, cut expenditures, and restructure federal agencies as part of the "Save America" movement. Elon Musk is quoted as saying that this will send shockwaves through the system and affect many involved in government waste.
The statement describes this initiative as potentially the "Manhattan Project" of the time, aiming for drastic changes with guidance from outside the government. It will partner with the White House and the Office of Management & Budget for large-scale reform and an entrepreneurial approach to government.
The statement expresses anticipation for Musk and Ramaswamy to improve federal bureaucracy efficiency and reduce government spending, which is stated to be $6.5 trillion annually. The work is expected to conclude by July 4, 2026, coinciding with the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The statement ends with confidence in their success.

We could really use some help. I've been sick for about a week now, and haven't had the spoons to post, but reaching the point now where I dont have a choice. We are out of money ($17.33 total to our names atm), and we have a lot of bills coming due, including $275.67 if we don't want our electricity disconnected on the 18th, $300 for our overdue income tax payment arrangement which was supposed to have been paid on the 8th, $168.84 for our water, $226.46 for our phones, another $567.83 at the start of next month for them to not take our car.

Day one. For the sixth time, this informal group of HTTP implementers and related "interested parties" unite in a room over a couple of days doing a HTTP Workshop. Nine years since that first event in Münster, Germany.
@kurtseifried funny, because that exact topic has been brought up here in London in side discussions. There really does not yet exist any good general solutions to this problem. There are plenty of "I own my own domain and I solved it like this" versions though - many of them include tailscale...
Hey, Who fans. Sadly, Mastodon didn't pan out the way I hoped, there wasn't much of a community that built up and there still isn't that much really. So...
I'm sorry to hear that. As my followers will surely verify, I never resist getting into a conversation about #DoctorWho. Please, don't give up on Mastodon.

Fedora Linux is getting a brand new installer with a modern Anaconda Web UI, designed for ease of use. Learn more about its features and how to try it out!
@khronos yes. the installer is built so the backend and UI layers are very separated, so this change doesn't actually affect kickstart support really at all.
Tens of thousands of exposed D-Link routers that have reached their end-of-life are vulnerable to a critical security issue that allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to change any user's password and take complete control of the device.
You know what’s interesting about this log line? It repeats 56,686,963 times in www.kernel.org logs for yesterday, across 4 nodes. That’s about 700 times a second, and this has been going on for months.
These requests aren’t intentionally malicious – they issue a simple GET /, receive their 301 redirect, and terminate the connection. From what I can tell, this is some kind of appliance or software installed on mobile clients that uses “can I reach www.kernel.org” as a network test.
This wouldn’t be that big of a deal – a single plaintext “GET /“ that triggers an immediate 301 is very cheap for us to generate, but the number of these requests has been steadily growing.
If you have any idea what this is and how to make it stop, please reach out?

"I’m a neurology ICU nurse. The creep of AI in our hospitals terrifies me"
This interview confirms all the things I have been going on about for the last year.
"I don’t think the goal is really to provide a safety net for everyone — I think it’s actually to speed us up, so we can see more patients, reduce visits down from 15 minutes to 12 minutes to 10. Efficiency, again."
The healthcare landscape is changing fast thanks to the introduction of artificial intelligence. These technologies have shifted decision-making power away from nurses and on to the robots.

Sharky is sharing his favorite keyboard shortcuts! Did you know? The keyboard shortcut INSERT+SPACE, then F1 opens FSCompanion, the new AI tool in JAWS! What is your favorite Sharkvember Shortcut? freedomscientific.com/sharkvem…
This shortcut is probably not in the Sharkvember list of shortcuts but for years I've loved the Append to Clipboard hotkey, insert+Windows+C. This is something that Windows should have as part of the OS and I'm so glad that JAWS allows for this.
@DavidGoldfield I love this shortcut! So glad you mentioned it. I use it pretty frequently! It's a little bit of finger gymnastics to do it, but I'm happy it's available.
@CreativeChris Yep, being able to append to the clipboard is incredibly convenient. You can also avoid the finger gymnastics by either reassigning the shortcut key or by just adding it to another key using the JAWS Keyboard Manager.
Also, you can append text to the clipboard with NVDA, using the same hotkey that JAWS uses for this function, if you install the Clip Contents Designer add-on from the add-on store via the NVDA menu. The add-on also lets you clear the contents of the clipboard as well as being able to view the contents of the clipboard. Hotkeys for this add-on can be reassigned or added to other keys by using NVDA's Input Gestures dialog, as it has a category for the Clip Contents Designer add-on once that add-on is installed. Any NVDA user who needs to do a lot of clipboard management shouldn't be without this add-on. #NVDA
@payown @CreativeChris I should also mention that, if you want that newly modified keystroke to be available globally, don't forget to choose the default configuration from within Keyboard Manager by pressing shift+ctrl+D. You guys likely already know that but it's worth mentioning for those who are new to Keyboard Manager. Also, as an odd keyboard shortcut, insert+8 (on the row of numbers) can be used to open Keyboard Manager; that one's been in JAWS for ages. It's a bit faster than the other ways of opening Keyboard Manager but it's not as intuitive. I still use it as it's one of the first ways I learned to open Keyboard Manager.
Thunderbird wird 20 Jahre alt, vielen Dank für diese großartige #OpenSource Software die mich fast genau so lange im Netz begleitet hat - das "Schweizer Taschenmesser" der #Email-Clients - Danke an @mozilla und die Open Source Community für @thunderbird und den langen Atem.
Changelog: 🦝 add option to load media only when connected over a WiFi network; 🦝 add option to open web pages in internal viewer; 🦝 default visibility for replies and warning if higher visibility than original post; 🦝 prevent changing visibility in post edits; 🦝 make plain text mode the default choice for composition; 🦝 remove "other" section in login; 🦝 improved video player; 🦝 render custom emojis inside poll options; 🦝 layout fixes: chat title, user items in inbox, loading indicators in buttons; 🦝 fix occasional crash in profile screen; 🦝 add more unit tests; 🦝 several dependency updates.
If things go well, this may be the final round of tests before the first stable release. The last bit will probably be making crash reports opt-out by default.
I'm also very pleased to inform you that the app has been accepted by IzzyOnDroid, so installing it is a lot easier if you use it or have its source added to your FDroid app.
Ciao ti do il mio input iniziale: al prinicipio ero un po' confuso... Lo stream di default segue più lo stile Mastodon che quello di Friendica, ma dopo un paio di cambi sono riuscito a farlo più simile a come io uso la WebUI, sebbene sono rimasto col dubbio se il tab "subscription" mostra anche le ricerche salvate.
Un'opzione che ho visto che non è ancora presente è quello di lasciare la barra dei comandi fissa, spero puoi mettere questa richiesta nel tuo todo-list.
@ l'opzione principale per rendere la timeline più "usabile" è abilitare l'opzione "Escludi risposte dalla timeline".
Quello che si vede nel feed "Iscrizioni" è il risultato di una chiamata GET v1/timelines/home che fa parte delle API Mastodon esposte dai server Friendica e che, da quel ho capito, include anche i post contenenti gli hashtag seguiti (in gergo Friendica le "ricerche salvate").
Cosa intendi con "tenere fissa la barra dei comandi"? La barra di navigazione inferiore (Timeline, Esplora, Inbox, Profilo) che sparisce quando scorri? Se sì, è certamente fattibile tenerla fissa, posso aggiungere un'opzione nella schermata delle impostazioni, avevo fatto la stessa identica cosa nel client per Lemmy ma pensavo non interessasse a nessuno questa funzione.
...da quel hi capito, include anche i post contenenti gli hashtag seguiti (in gergo Friendica le "ricerche salvate").
Mitico! 🤩
La barra di navigazione inferiore
Si quella, non mi veniva il nome in italiano... 😅 A me la barra che appare e scompare fa venire il mal di testa... 😵💫 Apprezzerei se potessi tenerla fissa! 🙏
@❄️ freezr ❄️ scusami, una domanda: tengo fisse la barra superiore e quella inferiore, ma il "floating action button" (ovvero il pallozzo colorato che permette di creare un post, aggiungere un elemento o rispondere) in basso a destra? blocco anche lui?
Se proprio vuoi essere un figo puoi mettere una opzione per fissarla in alto e in basso... 😏
Personalmente odio il "pallozzo" e lo preferirei integrato nella barra di navigazione come nell'immagine postata.
Io sono un grande sostenitore di Diaspora, non so se hai mai usato il wrapper per Android chiamato Dandelior, potrebbe essere fonte d'inspirazione: sopratutto per come gestisce le risposte.
Ad esempio io ho una vera e propria intolleranza al "farting mode" stile Mastodon, dove le risposte sono totalmente sconnesse al loro "post" di appartenenza... 👎
