Studie: polovina mladých chce svět bez internetu
Mladí Britové ve věku 16 až 21 let také podpořili noční digitální klid.
Těžko tomu věřit, ale téměř polovina mladých lidí by raději žila ve světě, kde neexistuje internet.
Zjistil to britský průzkum, o kterém včera informoval server The Guardian. Téměř 70 procent mladých lidí ve věku 16 až 21 let se podle průzkumu cítí hůř, když stráví čas na sociálních sítích. #dnešnítisk #MFD #tisk250521

@kjsapergia I’ll be honest, I don’t even care about the other games at all. CVS1 had amazing presentation but it is just not as much fun to play. The other games I never played and don’t really intend to.

Thursday, May 22, 2025
2PM to 330PM (EST)
Join Jason Goldfield with the Florida Outreach Center for the Blind for an informative ZOOM lecture on the new META Smart glasses by Ray-Ban.
The Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses are a fusion of fashion and functionality, combining Meta’s tech with Ray-Ban’s iconic eyewear. Of the many things these glasses can do for you hands-free, you can ask it to tell you what is in front of you, connect to your phone and text, send voice messages and make calls, play music, ask questions, take photos and video, get directions and descriptions, translate foreign languages, get recipes and have it tell you what is in your refrigerator, learn the history of a landmark, and so much more. On the audio front, the glasses feature discreet open-ear speakers and a five-microphone system, ensuring crystal-clear calls, immersive sound, and precise voice recognition.

new #rustlang crate drop: iddqd! ID-based maps where keys are borrowed from values. Four maps are included: IdOrdMap, IdHashMap, a bijective (1:1) BiHashMap and a trijective (1:1:1) TriHashMap.
At Oxide we've found this pattern to be extraordinarily useful. iddqd is no-std compatible, too!

Hablemos de complementos. Cuando dos líneas de texto lo arruinan todo: el peligro de forzar la compatibilidad en NVDA - NVDA en español
Artículo escrito por Jesús Gudiño y Carlos Esteban Martínez. En una tranquila tarde de otoño, Manuel, un usuario del lector de pantalla NVDA, se encontraba preparando una presentación importante.Carlos Esteban Martínez Macías (Comunidad de NVDA en español)
Thanks Carlos, great work!
Please encourage the community that there is no need to edit the manifest file - if you WANT to use an add-on not marked as compatible, you can simply override it in the add-on store. And of course, if you do that, and run into any issues, the first thing to do is disable the add-on or restart NVDA with add-ons disabled.
We have written a series of articles recently on our blog on the .1 release process and breaking changes: nvaccess.org/post/in-process-3…

#fdroid just successfully built #TinyWeatherForecastGermany version 0.62.9 .
This is a #floss #weather #forecast #app for #android devices based on #opendata from the German federal weather service "Deutscher Wetterdienst", the #dwd .
This app has no trackers included, does not need any proprietary services on your devices and has been developed to work well on de-g***led devices running #lineageos.
It also supports #tindie_wearables via the #gadgetbridge app.
You can get it at #fdroid, #izzyondroid and you can visit the project homepage at #codeberg
oof, misconfiguration at our end 🙈 Sincere apologies! Corrected now, 0.62.9 will show up with the next sync (and future releases in time again).
Oh, and btw: at #IzzyOnDroid of course as #reproducibleBuilds 
Does anybody happen to know what legislation this press release refers to? I searched for "H.R. 3417" but this leads me to a different bill. I also searched for the title, mentioned in the press release, but it also takes me to some legislation from 2022 / 2023. What am I missing?

How AI Makes Coding More Accessible

Long read, short summary: AI is really bad for the planet.
The primary investors behind AI all seem to be linked to the fossil fuel industry.
What an odd coincidence (not), that an energy wasting technology is being funded by people who are willing to go to war over oil pipelines & oil tankers.

Québec has had a carbon tax since 2007... almost a full decade before the federal government implemented its carbon tax.
Suddenly, Quebecers want it to end?
FYI It amounts to 10 cents/litre.
Gas companies will simply increase the price by 10 cents/litre that the government of Québec doesn't want and pocket it.
Québec's environment programs are funded by that 10 cents/litre.
Gas companies would line their own pockets.
