Happy to have my work in the Accessibility Chapter of the HTTP Archive's Web Almanac featured in StateScoop.

I belive that this is the first government-wide scan of USA states for web accessibility. The report averages over 34,000 state government web pages to create a meaningful snapshot of how inclusive government sites are.

Mixxx Stable 2.4.2 Released!

As the leaves fall and the first snowflakes start drifting down in the North, while the southern skies start warming up with summer sun, we are thrilled to finally release Mixxx 2.4.2! "Finally" because it's a bit later than planned, perfection can take some time. So we are proud to present you this release, a bugfix release for the 2.4 series before stepping over to a new number.

Check out the blog post for the full list of changes:

#Seznam, the company behind Mapy.cz, has become a silver partner of the #OpenStreetMap Foundation.
It was about time. They've been benefiting from #OSM for years.
Now I have one last thing on my wishlist: Drop the proprietary maps for #Czechia and use OSM everywhere.

It's that time of the year, I am open for #audio mixing and mastering, as well as #restoration jobs on the Fediverse.
Even better, for the entire month of December, I will do it for completely #free, especially if it's meant to be a gift, or you are looking to preserve dear memories.

If you need professional quality, custom ear-tailored audio work that sounds good and translates nicely, no matter where you listen, get in touch and let's discuss your needs.

Please note: This is on a first come, first serve basis, depending on requests.

Picture 1: Trump launched a new Guitar line, and as any guitarist in the world could immediately see, this so-called “Trump guitar” was just a Gibson Les Paul guitar rebranded with Trump logos.

Picture 2: As expected, Gibson Guitars’ lawyers are now all over this.

That is right — a US President-Elect is trying to steal the intellectual property of one of the most famous US guitar brands.

Nuove fughe di notizie sulla tecnologia di sblocco dei telefoni della polizia


Secondo un report di 404 Media esamina le capacità di Graykey, uno strumento di hacking progettato per aiutare la polizia ad accedere ai dati sui dispositivi mobili. Documenti trapelati suggeriscono che Graykey può estrarre solo dati parziali da iPhone moderni e aggiornati (da iPhone 12 e successivi). I documenti non specificano cosa comporta l'estrazione "parziale", sebbene i report precedenti suggeriscano che ciò potrebbe includere metadati sui file, anziché il contenuto di tali file. I dispositivi più vecchi, come iPhone 11, sono apparentemente vulnerabili all'estrazione "completa".

@RaccoonForFriendica version 0.3.1 has been released!

Here is a summary of the changes:
- feat: add profile recovery screen;
- fix: review inline content alternate text;
- fix: strip off HTML before editing posts;
- enhancement: improve timeline a11y;
- enhancement: add friendica.myportal.social to default instances;
- chore: add unit tests for content pagination and repositories;
- chore: dependency updates.

This is mostly a bugfix release dealing with the most annoying issues you reported (e.g. the lack of management for expired tokens, accessibility issues, post editing with markup). Plus, since I've been adding a lot of unit tests, some minor bugs (e.g. direct messages pagination) were resolved too.

I'll keep populating the backlog with what you report and I'll continue to add tests to increase coverage.

Remember to #livefasteattrash!

Remember that time an insane fascist was elected president and said he was going to put huge tariffs in Canada and then the Premiere of Quebec said he agreed with the insane fascist and bent over backwards to kneel down and kiss the ring?

In two years, a 90-acre plot in Scotland has gone from a count of 35 bumblebees to over 4,000. They've also doubled their species diversity.

Rewilding and habitat restoration can work, and can work fast, especially for quickly breeding species.
