I went on a nature walk with my family, some UV torches, and a PhD expert in fluorescence as a guide. It's amazing how the night changes when it fluoresces. These photos are unaltered, and don't even do the true colours justice. (1/6)

@JessDail It's been a while since I used it. If I remember correctly, the problem I had with it was that the menu/toolbar items were being rendered as part of the Web page with the virtual cursor but it's been a few months since I last used Vivaldi.
A new analysis by Stanford epidemiologists predicts that measles could become endemic again in the US in the next 20 years.
This would be a catastrophic failure and a result of anti-vax propaganda. Measles is a vaccine-preventable disease that was declared eliminated in the US in 2000.

“Georgia Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff told a voter in Georgia on Friday that he ‘strongly’ agrees that President Donald Trump needs to be impeached.”
“‘There is no doubt that this president’s conduct has already exceeded any prior standard for impeachment by the United States House of Representatives,’ Ossoff told the audience … adding later that there is ‘no question’ a number of Trump’s actions have risen to the level of an impeachable offense.”
“‘Why are there no calls for impeachment? This is unacceptable,’ the woman shouted to cheers from the crowd. ‘I will not live in an authoritative country, and neither will any of these people. You can do more! Think outside the box! He needs to be impeached.’”
“‘I like you, and I will vote for you if you are brave, and you do what we need,’ she said. ‘We need him [Trump] to be impeached. We need him to be removed.’”

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel - A county judge in Wisconsin has been arrested by federal authorities who are investigating whether she tried to help an undocumented immigrant avoid arrest after he appeared in her courtroom. jsonline.com/story/news/breaki…
Brady McCarron, spokesman for U.S. Marshals Service in Washington, D.C., confirmed Dugan was arrested at about 8 a.m. at the Milwaukee County Courthouse and is in federal custody.
"This is a drastic escalation and dangerous new front in Trump’s authoritarian campaign of trying to bully, intimidate, and impeach judges who won’t follow his dictates," reacts Rep. Jamie Raskin, ranking member of the House Committee on the Judiciary. democrats-judiciary.house.gov/…

Pro Publica - A Treasury Department inspector general is probing efforts by President Trump and Elon Musk’s DOGE to obtain private taxpayer data and other sensitive information. propublica.org/article/trump-d…
The request, spelled out in an email obtained by ProPublica, comes amid concerns that DOGE has overstepped its bounds in seeking highly restricted private information about taxpayers, public employees or federal agencies.

For iOS 18, macOS Sequoia Intro As is widely known, a major selling point of Apple devices is the interconnected ecosystem they collectively foster, allowing users to work seamlessly between iPhones, iPads, Macs, and other devices.
As noted by Allan, the post is his personal view and not an official position of the GNOME Foundation board. That said, I personally feel like it includes important context and is well worth a read.
I really hate the lack of transparency or reporting whatsoever, high *possibility* of political motivation, and what seems to be punishment that's not adequate for the misconduct. I have serious doubts Sonny could have done or said something so vile you'd need to ban him immediately and forever, without a way to come back. In actual laws, even murder cases don't always warrant a lifelong sentence.
This blog post addresses nothing, and can be boiled down to "we don't wanna step down".
@brainblasted oh... Is it written somewhere? Reading on the CoC procedures, there's the "Final warning, temporary ban, or removal from leadership" option, which seems to fit the official announcement about removal of Sonny from Board of Directors and all committees. But nowhere can I find the duration of the temporary ban.
Late last year I supported the Kickstarter for JetKVM. This device is a tiny little IP-KVM solution. It’s basically a refined package of everything involved in a PiKVM. Connect HDMI & USB from a computer-to-be-controlled, and Ethernet. Then the web interface on the JetKVM device allows that device to be remote controlled using just a web browser from anywhere there’s IP connectivity.

I have moved my mastodon account from fosstodon.org to floss.social. I want to make the reason I have done this crystal clear.
There is a person on the moderation team at fosstodon.org that goes by the name carrotcypher. This person appears to have posted concerning views on reddit multiple times, which you can see detailed here: floss.social/@lo__@mastodon.so…
@matt thank you for posting about this. I am tired already, knowing that there will be Discourse about how progressives just want to “cancel” people or whatever, from people who cannot see that we are all just very, very tired of this shit and would extremely like to avoid actions like this if only the people in authority could do their damn jobs. Ejecting this person from the mod team is SUCH an obvious step to take and it is embarrassing that they didn’t do it immediately
@glyph ...and it's happening. I'm seeing posts from people still on Fosstodon saying that the fediverse is a meaner place than what it replaced, and that there are some always-online people who have nothing better to do than create drama. And I admit, for a moment it made me doubt whether I should have boosted what I did. But I know we should prioritize the safety of marginalized people over always giving members of the already dominant group the benefit of the doubt.
@matt FWIW that pang of doubt still hits me sometimes too. It's happened so many times now, and the reactions are all so predictable, that I can quickly recognize and dismiss it, but it's still so tedious and sad.
We need some kind of public education program to help people navigate the process of admitting they are wrong and apologizing rather than *always* doubling down on made-up procedural grounds

Personally, I'd say a jury full of people whose friends and families have been murdered for profit are exactly the right kind of jury.
You know, a jury of our peers, just like it says in the Constitution. If you have to hunt for exceptional people, whose lives are unusual, they're not our "peers."

The desktop team in Red Hat has another open position. We’re looking for someone to work on Flatpak automation, for someone who enjoys working on infrastructure. Although the job description states 2+ years of experience, it’s suitable for juniors. Formal experience can be replaced by relevant open source contributions. Being onsite in Brno, Czech Republic is preferred, but not required. We’re open to hiring good candidates elsewhere, too.
If you’d like to know more about the job before formally applying, don’t hesitate to contact me on Mastodon, Signal, Matrix (@eischmann at fedora.im), or email.
Company Description At Red Hat, we connect an innovative community of customers, partners, and contributors to deliver an open source stack of trusted, high-performing solutions.
I quickly read the job offer, and it didn’t seem to me that there was the answer to the following question: when you talk about “Flatpak automation”, do you talk about the possibility of automating the installation of flatpaks on an entire computer park (with the building of versions customized by the administrator), or is it a question of improving all the building process of Red Hat’s Flatpak repository?
onsite is preferred (it's a company policy to rebuild site communities), but not required. However, the budget for the position is for the Czech Republic which makes it really difficult to meet demands of candidates from high income locations.
onsite would be a clear no-go for anyone I know who's even remotely talented, even if they were within communting distance.
Corporations forcing people to socialize is cringe af. Either one has a good culture and people want come together or not.
Not to mention it's ableist af to any non-neurotypical or disabled person.
This ain't like TechSupport onsite at clients' datacenters or plumbing where it makes sense to have personnel onsite to be able to reach clients AFAP.
It's not a matter of money either. I did reject a position paying 50% higher... All I'd care is getting legally employed under German law for healthcare and tax reasons.
Still wishing only the best of luck and success at filling said vacancy!
I understand, but the policy isn't something I can directly influence. However, it's a very soft preference. Our engineering has always been very distributed with many people working remotely, especially the desktop team where most people work remotely. I don't think it's a major obstacle. If we have two very similarly qualified candidates, we may prefer the one who can be in Brno, otherwise we'd just pick the better one no matter where they work from.
Right, so. Chrome is a horrible browser with a huge marketshare. It's well known that it spies on its users. They've recently decided that ad-blockers are bad so they released a new version of the add-ons system so ad-blockers can't work as effectively. Google has used it to forece through its own standards and practices despite anything that happens in the W3C standards body. Right, okay. So Chrome must die.
