Bridgy Fed fediverse => Bluesky bridging is currently paused. The Bluesky team has been working on their relay to handle all their new growth, and they’ve temporarily stopped ingesting dat…
Tohle je mimochodem přesně ta situace, o který jsem mluvil: mamutovo.cz/@Razemix/113436933… Pokud se centrální relay rozhodne ignorovat váš PDS, tak máte smůlu a se zbytkem sítě ztratíte kontakt. Řešením by teoreticky bylo udělat si vlastní relay, co bude obsluhovat jen určitou podsíť, se kterou komunikuje váš PDS. To by extra drahý nebylo. Ale to jen za předpokladu, že se uživatelům zobrazujou data, který jejich PDS posbírá od ostatních relays! Jo a zbytek sítě by tuhle komunikaci logicky neviděl.
Co se stane, když se centrální relay rozhodne ignorovat/zabanovat váš PDS? Jste v prdeli. 🙂 A asi si umíte představit, že provozovat alternativní relay, kterej bude agregovat data z celý sítě, nebude úplně levný.
Good news for Public Radio fans. The latest update to the NPR app has made it accessible and usable. The app used to be almost impossible to navigate, and both TalkBack and Jieshuo would freeze while attempting to move around its news articles or program segments. However, the latest release has effectively resolved the glitch. play.google.com/store/apps/det… #NPR #Android #Accessibility

I am a university student who originally planned to double major in computer science and elementary education, but I’ve recently faced some concerns that I’d like to address.
I’ve been told that pursuing a teaching certification might not be advisable because schools may be reluctant to hire a teacher with low vision, who is mostly blind, to manage a classroom of thirty or more students. This has been quite upsetting.
My dream was to work with elementary students, focusing on #STEM subjects and teaching technology-related topics like understanding tech, its role in the world, and the basics of programming. Now, I find myself uncertain about what path to take.
Working with kids, especially those in elementary school, is my biggest passion, even more than tech or music. It’s something that would truly fulfill me. Since I can’t have kids myself, guiding and teaching young learners is the next best thing. It’s a career I’m committed to and want to excel in.
Being advised not to pursue a teaching certification and to focus solely on computer science has been quite discouraging. I’ve been told to study elementary education as a secondary focus and combine it with my computer science studies. This might involve developing educational systems for kids, but it would likely mean limited direct interaction, possibly just during product testing, which isn’t enough for me.
So, I have a few questions:
1. Are there any educators with #Blindness or #LowVision challenges working with elementary students? If so, in what capacity do you work with them? 2. How has your disability affected your effectiveness in the field? 3. What challenges did you face in getting certified and qualified, and how did you overcome them? 4. What obstacles have you encountered in the classroom and with colleagues, and how have you addressed them?
If these questions don’t apply, what advice can you offer me in pursuing my goal of working with children? While tech is a focus, I’m open to being flexible, as long as it’s an area I’m confident in.
Finally, if teaching isn’t possible for me, what other career paths would you suggest that align with my goals?
I’d really appreciate any support and engagement in this discussion.

Not endorsing the #degoogle hashtag here just because a hell of a lot of spackle is needed for a comparable experience, but if you're interested in #cloud email servoces, this is one of the better ones in this space.
I have now configured my mail server to provide an MTA-STS policy for inbound message encryption. I already had DANE set up, but some providers only use MTA-STS. The only real difficulty I encountered was that my SMTP server needed to present the entire certificate chain to mail senders; otherwise, some of them (Google, at least) would fail to verify the certificate. #SMTP #MailServer

Seeing some of the replies thinking a title like this, in a context like this, is remotely OK, says so much about how much progress we still must make if blindness is to stop being used as a demeaning pejorative. dragonscave.space/@jscholes/11…
And it adds insult to injury when it's the title for a talk at an accessibility conference. I've tried to find the page containing info on this talk to fact-check this but it now indicates that the page is not found.
@jscholes @DavidGoldfield I’ve been quite critical of language lately, but I don’t think I would object to the term blindspot! In the same way as I don’t subject to the term turning a blind eye both of them are descriptive a phenomenon which is all about not being able to see which is actually what blind this is as well!
Hi. The issue is that "turning a blind eye" to something doesn't mean that you can't see something. It means that you can actually see something, a thing that's usually harmful or problematic in some way, but you're deliberately choosing to ignore it and look the other way. It's the same reason why I dislike it when people similarly use the expression "a deaf ear" to things they'd rather not have to listen to.
@DavidGoldfield @Lottie @jscholes safe to say we understand the expression. Just some of us don't get all up in arms about it. Bigger fish to fry n all that.
to chápu, no, akorát já prostě nejsem tolik navyklý na tu fyzickou námahu, ale spíš na pobyt v přírodě a výhledy. Ale jako asi chápu i lidi s potřebou pravidelné fyzické námahy, akorát 2h v kuse bych teda fakt nedal
@ferda Máme být 3+1. Tak maximálně v prádelně, ale ta už smrdí i bez mé cyklistiky. Hele brala si mě v dobrém i ve zlém, tak to musí vydržet 😀😀😀 @xChaos
Na jaře jsem za něj platil 15 euro. Ale je dotažený po všech stránkách (UI, UX, platformy a integrace do aplikací třetích stran), takže nic neřešíš a jenom ho používáš. Za půl roku nepoužívání jsem okamžitě viděl pokrok.
A obsahuje mraky cvičení — sice jsem teď potřeboval najet hodně kilometrů (aby mi na zítřejší chladnou venkovní jízdu zbylo pouhých 25 kiláků do letošních deseti litrů), ale pak hodlám jezdit právě intervaly apod., což je něco, co mi zdejší okolí svým profilem neumožní.
@pavelkout Tak ona je to zatím beta, určitě to tam přidají. Pořád je TP, jeden z nejlepších tréninkových deníků. Jiinak od března to bude součástí placené verze TrainingPeaks.
@archos Samozřejmě to píšu z BS (@ferdas.bsky.social) na BS těm účtům, co nemají zapnutý #bridge - ty nás u nich nevidí 😬, ani námnic nepošlou 🤔. Zkusil jsem si to 😉. Tady jsem o tom naposled psal uživatelce, která je tady i na BS: mastodonczech.cz/@ferda/113526… Dokonce jsem to tam ještě polopaticky 🤷🏻♂️ na žádost někoho jiného vysvětlil ☺️. @Lucinek

@fabia_man 😀😀 Jj přesně, no šlo to rychle. Holt jsou věci které v Linuxu provozovat nejde. Začíná zima a virtuální cyklistika, tak se musím občas do Win přepnout. Až na ty aktualizace, se mi win celkem i líbí. Vypadají fakt dobře.
Když školím úvod do Linuxu, nikdy nezapomenu zmínit, jaký je rozdíl mezi aktualizací Windows (jen samotného systému!) a Linuxu (včetně prakticky všeho SW) 😎
The Untapped Workforce: Why Apprentices with Disabilities Are Key to Cybersecurity's Future | Dr. Kirk Adams drkirkadams.com/why-apprentice…
What if businesses could solve one of their biggest challenges - finding skilled workers - by tapping into a resource hiding in plain sight? Apprenticeships offer a proven way to bridge the gap between raw potential and critical roles, especially in industries like cybersecurity.
I'm struggling to wrap my head around scene transitions and positioning things in #OBS on windows. If anyone is accomplished and feeling generous about answering questions as a #ScreenReader user (#NVDASR in particular) please hit me up. I'm very happy with my audio now, multi-track, filters, all that jazz, but the visual (without eyes of my own) is proving convoluted.

#TIL I learned that German cities used to have a "Bettelvogt" or "Armenvogt" - a minor official whose job was it to "control the behavior" of beggars and other poor people.
They were explicitly tasked to _control_ beggars, and not help them in any way. Which just goes to show that shitty behavior towards poor people by the authorities was well-established long before the advent of #LateStageCapitalism .
Prý nejslavnější hudební klip natáčený v Praze, a to ještě před pádem komunismu, v roce 1987. Prý se jim líbilo, že je to všechno "netknuté" a vypadá to středověce. Každopádně, až se nechce věřit, kolik klipů se v Praze natočilo (a na kolika z nich je hlavní nádraží).

I’m being told that the largest Mastodon instance - mastodon.social - is now hiding my profile.
One person telling me it’s because of German obsession with making up antisemitism where there is none.
Anyone who knows me and my work knows that I frequently platform critical Jewish voices. My MA thesis was on Yiddish and Hebrew, I do memory studies which includes Holocaust studies, and I am co-producing a Jewish podcast by three radical Jews.

@jcsteh While I agree with the Pro-Australian neutrality sentiment, I really do, I think the situation in Ukraine is vastly different and should not be mixed in here. This whole narrative that somehow US is using Ukraine as a playground does not correspond the reality. In fact, people in Ukraine feel that the west did not offer enough help or, if they did, the help was not timely. But that's a different discussion altogether.
One of the worst misfeatures of #Mastodon from a safety angle: If you get an abusive reply to your post, you can't remove it even by blocking the person. Even after blocking, your server still shows the abusive reply to everyone else.
There has been a patch ready to fix this for 2 years, 6 months, and 1 day. @Gargron has not approved it, and has provided *zero* explanation for why he will not allow it to be merged.
This is about the server not returning known subthreads started by people blocked by the post's author, not the viewer.
e.g., if we have A → B → C → D → E, where a → b means “b replies to a”, a...
Nvidia ( $NVDA ) reported Q3 earnings of $0.81 EPS on $35.1 billion revenue, surpassing expectations. The Data Center business hit $30.8 billion, up 112% YoY, while gaming revenue reached $3.3 billion. Nvidia's stock fell 1% post-announcement.
What do you think about Nvidia's future in the AI-driven market?
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!
