Bij het Nationaal Monument op de Dam in Amsterdam is een auto in brand gevlogen. De politie meldt dat de Dam is afgezet vanwege een brandend voertuig. Ook is er "medische zorg" voor een persoon.
@s3nnet Indeed, but would have been nice if all of this had not been necessary at all... Just think about the wasted time and energy of everybody involved!
Why use any Apple product, though? Overly expensive, outdated and bloated OS, minimum control (like using the mail client you want)... Terrible consumer practices, programmed obsolescence, hardware implementation that doesn't make any sense... Step up to something better and more efficient, like #linux
With the NGI Mobifree Pilot we work on more ethical mobile software. Consortium partner @waag is looking for app developers who'd like to volunteer as testers. You'll be testing Murena Fairphone (on loan), F-Droid & Repomaker. There will be 2 in-person meetings and weekly requests for feedback. Because of the in-person meetings it's aimed at people who live in the Netherlands.
Are you excited about testing open-source software and the Murena Smartphone? We are looking for testers to develop prerequisites for a human-centred and ethical framework for mobile design.

I finished watched the TV Series Adolescence last night. Gripping story and one that is probably reflected in many homes around the world. How do we define what it is to be a man in 2025? How see our children become responsible adults? What is it to be a good parent? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolesce…
📣 #DMA: European Commission falls short on interoperability requirements for Apple
Despite initial promising steps, the @EUCommission 's measures on Apple’s compliance with interoperability procedures under the Digital Markets Act fall short.
The less stringent obligations on API documentation and long deadlines for interoperability solutions will impact how #FreeSoftware projects get interoperability from Apple.
Despite initial promising steps, the European Commission’s measures on Apple’s compliance with interoperability procedures under the Digital Markets Act fa...

In Aira’s 2024 Explorer Survey, we categorized common navigation tasks into three areas: describing, reading, and technical assistance. Describing “surroundings when navigating” is a top priority for 55% of survey participants.
For the past couple of years, I've been reviewing Samsung Accessibility Framework evolutions, starting with Framework 33, and then we saw together how it came
this would have been helpful the last time I was working with Firecracker; it’s a fairly restrictive VM, and VSOCK is the main way to talk out to the host:
Die U.S.-Botschaft verlangt in Briefen, dass Geschäftspartner in Deutschland sich an die Trump-Dekrete gegen Diversität etc. halten und droht sonst mit Abbruch der Geschäftsbeziehungen?
Ok, können sie haben. Die Botschaft könnte sofort konsequent handeln und jeglichen Strombezug einstellen. Der Berliner Stromnetzbetreiber unterhält nämlich ein großes Diversitätsprogramm, sogar auf Englisch nachlesbar: stromnetz.berlin/en/for-berlin…
In the meantime, I have 2 bigs issues with Tuta app on ios. It freezes very often when I open an email and want to delete it or go back to inbox. But worst is that, if I receive an email while my phone is off or on flight mode, I am not notified when I am back online and that's really annoying. Much more than not being able to set tuta as default email app
We still see people on social media recommending OpenOffice. Just be aware that it's no longer getting updates, and has multiple year-old unfixed security issues: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_O… – To be safe, switch to one of the actively maintained successor projects (such as LibreOffice).
We still see people recommending Excel and throwing around those "Excel tools" (aka spreadsheets with some formulas).
Please stop endorsing spreadsheet apps for anything else than spreadsheets. Better use applications for numerical computations like #NumeRe or #R, which produce understandable, mainainable and debuggable solutions.
I feel so guilty downvoting OpenOffice. It was a good friend, the people were ace, and for a while it had the only decent EPUB exporter plugin. I wrote my first book on it.
openDesk bietet flexible und moderne Office-Anwendungen für die tägliche Arbeit in der Öffentlichen Verwaltung, einschließlich Textverarbeitung, Kollaboration und gemeinsamer Dateiablage, Videokonferenzen, Chat und Projektmanagement.
Gotta admit, OpenOffice is still in my heart because I used it back when it was version 1.1.0. Pure nostalgia, but LibreOffice doesn't evoke such a warm feeling of "Linux back then". On the other hand, LibreOffice is always reliable and stable.
I was amused to get a "new" computer at work last December, and the system image included an OpenOffice install from 2019. I replaced that one pretty quickly. 😛
The Apache Software Foundation offers a suite of office productivity software named Apache Open Office. Based on the download page, you would never guess the last major release of the software was made available in 2014.
They claim to maintain it, and if you look at the repository, there are updates all the time, but pretty much every single one of them are reformatting, some typo fixes, changes to formatting of documentation, etc.
You have to scroll way down before you find a single fix that actually changes the code.
Why are hey even spending the time doing this? The only explanation I have is that they have some contract where someone is paying them money for it to be updated, and they do the absolute bare minimum to avoid breaking the contract.
This, unfortunately, has had an extremely harmful effect on the open source community, who are best represented by libreoffice here.
I paged down page, after page, after page, and with maybe 3 exceptions, every. single. fix modifies code comments, change the character case of html tags.
What on earth is going on? Surely a human isn't assigned to make a few of these changes every single day? Or maybe the contract allows them to afford this?
@loke Exactly. People should contact apache@apache.org and ask them why they keep distributing OpenOffice despite the security issues, and pretend to keep the project alive with meaningless Git commits that remove whitespaces. Try contacting them!
@downey went from MSO to AOO to LiO right at the beginning and haven’t looked back. And with Collabora Office (though I’d prefer a straight-up iOS/iPadOS LiO) it’s nearly as seamless as iWork without the walled garden, which means I can use it on my recently #Linux-upgraded-from-Win10 old PC.
I am one of those people who are still recommending Apache OpenOffice. But there is a reason, I am not doing it randomly or for fun.
I work with people at rural schools, where they use old computers, mostly donated ones, and mostly offline. They need to use a fast, lightweight office suite, and even LibreOffice 7.6 is not lightweight enough for these situations. However, Apache OpenOffice 4.1 works PERFECT because it is certainly lighter.
Awaiting reaction from the residents of the Heard and McDonald Islands after the US today imposed a 10% reciprocal tariff on products from the volcanic territory between Madagascar and Antarctica. Might be waiting a bit -- apparently the total human population is (double checks notes)...zero.

The world of digital accessibility is full of myths, misconceptions, and downright ridiculous stereotypes. If you work in this space, you've probably heard
Wife's step sister in TN sent us some copies of the Tennessee Magazine just so we'd know about the goings in in TN. And here's this article titled "Fun for Everyone: Nathan Bedford Forrest State Park offers much to many"
So come have fun at a park named after the founder of the KKK. I'm really glad I live in Oregon.
While we believe #Accessibility should be a key component of any project from the outset, one of the advantages of open source is that those with the knowledge are able to contribute to projects to help address shortcomings. @wireshark is "The world's most popular #network protocol analyzer", and a fellow #OpenSource project. Do we know any #A11y coders with an interest in #Networking willing to give them a hand with accessibility? See their post here: fosstodon.org/@wireshark@ioc.e… #FOSS
I am willing to help and already a Wireshark contributor. I would likely not have much opportunity to contribute code in the near future but can certainly help with diagnosing screen reader problems.
I don’t know what’s scarier, Pete Hegseth drunk-texting you first thing in the morning or Pete Hegseth drunk-texting classified military operations in violation of the Espionage Act with 18 others including a reporter.
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office confirms that his younger brother is serving in a key position inside the Pentagon as a Department of Homeland Security liaison and senior adviser.
I don’t know what’s scarier, Pete Hegseth having access to any email or Pete Hegseth using Gmail with Waltz to discuss classified national security concerns.
A previously unknown trick lets you easily bypass using a Microsoft Account in Windows 11, just as Microsoft tries to make it harder to use local accounts.
new security milestone reached: #chatmail relay servers are hardened to only transfer end-to-end encrypted e-mail with metadata minimization. No cleartext message can enter or leave the secure chatmail network anymore.
We now talk about "chatmail relays" rather than servers as they only ephemerally store messages until delivery. Dirt cheap to run.
We opened up our #rust "chatmail core" infrastructure library and set up an overview of the community driven ecosystem ...
Chatmail provides FOSS infrastructure for interoperable, secure, speedy and reliable end-to-end encrypted messaging. Check out clients as Arcane Chat, Bots or Delta Chat today!
@farooqkz I don't know how they look (a what quality and quantity you get) but I bet in Germany you would only get 2-3 of those for that money. like the price when you buy it from a take away fast food place, preparing it yourself will be much cheaper
The bird is out of the bag! We're introducing Thunderbird Pro (you already know Appointment!), a set of productivity AND privacy boosting services. And that includes...*drum roll*...an email service we're calling Thundermail. Find all the info in this excellent article:
"Thundermail" will be part of a suite of Thunderbird Pro services, as the team behind the venerable Mozilla email client begins building a complete ecosystem.
@thunderbird Please consider setting android:allowBackup="true" on Android. Backups are an essential security feature. Without the ability to easily backup & restore data, it is extremely vulnerable to being destroyed or ransomed. Security is not just about preventing unauthorized access, it's also about protecting authorized access.
Thanks for the thoughtful feedback! While we get feedback from Mastodon and other socials to our developers, another place you can suggest improvements like this is connect.mozilla.org where other members of the community can upvote and comment on them to show support.
Currently, Thunderbird for Android sets a flag in its manifest that prevents it from being included in backups. My emails, and the client configs for my email providers, are some of the most important data on my device.
@thunderbird is this known issue with the rebranded #K9?
I composed a message while out and about, but the message didn't send because my mobile provider has ended up on #Spamhaus #XBL. The message sits in the #Thunderbird Outbox.
On getting home to my WiFi network (whose internet connectivity is provided by an entity which is not my mobile provider) and attempting to resend the message in the Outbox, the message still fails to send, with the same error. However any email composed and sent while on my home network is sent reliably.
Hey there. There are some issues with messages being stuck in the outbox, but they tend to heavily be related to EIG-owned web and email hosting companies. So we'd suggest opening a question on support.mozilla.org or joining our community support chat on Matrix at matrix.to/#/#tb-android:mozill… - our developers also hang out in this room as well!
You're invited to talk on Matrix. If you don't already have a client this link will help you pick one, and join the conversation. If you already have one, this link will help you join the conversation
