Mixxx Stable 2.5.1 Released!

Thanks to your feedback, this release contains a lot of improvements, fixes, new and improved controller-mappings. We would like to emphasize the importance of testing new versions. You don't have to be a programmer to contribute to Mixxx. Translating, testing new features and checking for possible regression is just as important.

It is recommended that all users update to this new version.

@Friendica Support what license / terms of use is the friendica logo under?

@Fabio pointed me to the SVGs at git.friendi.ca/friendica/frien… and git.friendi.ca/friendica/frien… ; am I correct that they would be under CC0-1.0 as per git.friendi.ca/friendica/frien… ?

Are there additional term of use on the logo?

Looking at @Fabio 's laptop yesterday we may have agreed that there is an unacceptable lack of hexagons with nested Fs, and I wanted to fix this :D

@Elena ``of Valhalla''

Sry no SVG.
JPG-PNG are available in all sizes up to 256px I believe.
I even ulpoaded this to git friendica I think, not sure witch versions, every once in a while I retouch something.
Terms of use are CC0 (actually NC) but in the case of friendica anything goes.

The colored circular image is a svg "permafluer", published creative commons by someone else in some CC svg catalogue site. The copy left is from a SVG creative commons site. The friendica base is from a friendica logo itself.
Gimme a day and I look up all the info with links if I can.

Versions of this have been used as canvas for forum profiles, see here to get an idea:

btw
The image I posted is the background image of this friendica server as you may find if you visite this comment or for example our TOS page:

Aww yeah, the Godot game engine 4.5 dev 3 snapshot is out.

For those of you to whom that's just alphabet soup, 4.5 dev 3 integrates AccessKit! This means that the editor UI, and any game UIs made with it, are screen reader accessible out of the box.

I just spun up an instance in a Fedora distrobox. Haven't gotten far, but the intro and project creation dialogs are certainly usable. Though the creation dialog seems to set its content as the label for all fields which is verbose. Filing that issue but still this is an amazing development!

Sunday.
A weekend of volunteering for me. I spent a few hours yesterday providing real time Braille during the funeral of the late Pope. We had the liturgy and readings in both their native languages and English, words to the hymns, and AI-generated braille descriptions of the visuals. Only supporting a dozen or so deafblind people with the technology skills to keep up, but that's a handful of people who wouldn't have been able to participate as well otherwise.

Today, the charity that employs the wife have over 150 runners in the London Marathon, so I'm helping direct their supporters as to when and for whom to cheer, and helping maintain the massive spreadsheet. The marathon generates a lot of revenue for the charity so it's a big day in their calendar.

4AVs.eu se tento víkend účastní praguebikefest.cz/ . Organizátoři apelují na návštěvníky: "Přijeďte na kole!". My to tak děláme i jako vystavovatelé :D

Krásné dobré nedělní ráno mastodončata! 🙋‍♀️🐈🐶
Trošínečku u nás zamrzlo. I Archibaldíka překvapil bílý koberec. Artur ten si dal na čas a přivítal nás, až jsme se vraceli z procházky.
Balda je neutahatelný. Budíček v půl šesté, dvě hodiny venku. Pranice s Arturem. Kolečko po sadu. A teď cupuje kapesníčky. Kdybych řekla kouzelné slůvko "ven", sápal by se na dveře a radostně skučel. 😂
Vy se na dveře sápat nemusíte. Použijte kliku. Venku je nádherně. 😊

I know it's become quite common, but I still think of it as a miracle of technology:

With our internal combustion engine car, someone on the other side of the world has to drill into the ground, often under the sea, pump the oil into a tanker that has to take it halfway around the world to a terminal where it is pumped into a pipeline that takes it halfway across the continent to a refinery where it has to be processed so that a truck can come and take it halfway across the country to a gas station where I can fill it up.

With our #EV, I just plug it in and charge it with energy that comes right off our roof. I can easily extend the range by 200 km on a sunny day. The energy transport distance: tens of thousands of km vs. 10 meters.

#electronicvehicle #emobility

in reply to Jan Petrus

@jan_petrus yeah, with energy from the grid the difference is not so big, there is still a significant difference. The vast majority of electricity is produced in our country. Even the coal-based electricity, which is the dirtiest from our mix, has much shorter transportation distances. The plants are usually very close to the mines. Nuclear fuel is sourced outside of our country or even continent, but it is also a much smaller volume of mass.

300 Google employees in the UK branch of its DeepMind unit have begun unionization efforts to protest their AI products being sold to defence groups especially the Israeli government.

This form of employee activism is dead in the US. Between the gutting of the NLRB and deportations for anti-Israel criticism, anyone who does such in the US is effectively giving up their job.

I knew @MapComplete could add ratings to Mangrove Reviews...but YIL it can add reviews too! (The OSM POI search on Mangrove Reviews' own site is mysteriously broken.)

In future mapping parties we're _so_ going to be using this to add reviews of the places we eat at! Heck, I've already asked participants of the last two parties to add them 🙂

An old failed Venus lander will re-enter from earth orbit next month, and it could land anywhere between 52 degrees north and south. Which covers basically all population in the southern hemisphere and a large majority in the north, leaving out the Baltics, Nordics, and Alaska.

It weighs a thousand pounds and is expected to reach the ground intact. Previous debris from the launch landed in New Zealand.

I think that @theverge is underselling it - the gold here isn’t the chrome browser, it’s chrome’s automatic background update system. It’s root on billions of machines.

@theverge@theverge.space also continues to miss the implications of a sale on the DOJ's proposed terms to software all-up. By failing to push for an equitable, sustainable spinout (likely to a foundation, w/ the ability to bid for fractional search traffic and with a huge endowment taken from Google), DOJ is setting up Apple and Google to have *more* duopoly power over mobile.

I like to think I'm plugged in when it comes to funny internet weirdness, but this song from 2018 completely escaped my awareness until just now. youtube.com/watch?v=D_zS_uiPWx…

When a firefighter dies, a small team of federal health workers helps pinpoint what went wrong and identify how to avoid similar accidents in the future.

Trump laid off nearly all of them.
