ČSOB a její dceřinky vytvořily tak komplexní systém služeb, že po deseti letech, kdy tam máme hypotéku, vůbec netuším, co za služby tam vlastně platíme. Pokud tenhle screenshot chápu správně, tak jsme přišli o 0.2 procentního bodu ze slevy na vedení účtu a pojištění.
Fun fact: ČSOB má pojišťovnu, ale pojištění auta k půjčce, co jsme brali na Teslu kvůli dotaci, nám dali od Kooperativy.
Příští měsíc doplatíme Teslu, v dubnu 2026 hypo a pápá.

Does anyone know why Matrix doesn't notify you when a picture message is received? It's super annoying. And I say Matrix instead of naming a client because every single client refuses to notify for it so I imagine it's something in the spec.
messages with images should get notified like any other; there is nothing in the spec against it. it does depend on the client though, as in e2ee rooms the client has to decrypt and display the notif. for non-e2ee rooms the server should send the notif. For instance on Element X iOS it looks like this, and even gives a thumbnail:
@matrix Oh hey I didn't expect the actual Matrix Foundation in my replies this morning.
Thank you though, I didn't realize that clients only notified after attachments have been decrypted and I figured out what was up. Media messages coming from the Google Messages Mautrix bridge get stuck at the "Waiting for attachment to decrypt" phase despite the fact that the decryption completes successfully, so it never sends the chat notification. I'm curious how a bridge would affect attachment decryption, but at least I know what's up now. Thanks!
I had a bit of a realisation the other day. I was wondering why I'm nostalgic for what's essentially just old timey corporate products (Amiga, Sun Microsystems, Classic Mac Stuff, etc) and then it dawned on me.
These things had to survive on the merit of being good products. They weren't constantly trying to fuck me over or harvest my data/money.
> Ending anonymous banking like in Switzerland was a major objective for the US. They said it was because it allowed money laundering for terrorists. People will get upset when the government talks about ending encryption in order to stop terrorism but the same concept applied to money apparently doesn't matter. > In practice we have a system where money laundering has not ended and we have much more financial surveillance for average citizens. That was probably the purpose all along and it never had anything to do with finding tax evaders or stopping terrorism.
Also if you think that you're not being surveilled very much, your bank most definitely integrated Zelle.
Zelle is a surveillance app masquerading as a payment app. They analyze every transaction in your bank accounts to help them flag fraud. It's just a legal method to authorize a third party (operated by the banks themselves) to spy on everyone's financial activity in the name of fraud prevention but really they can legally use all that data for macroeconomic analysis
Specially as tax evaders aren't the average citizen, it probably can be routine checks on most tax forms, and then targeted surveillance on ones with enough wealth to actually evade taxes.
it's only going to drive lower and lower, and then the people complaining about energy usage will have to invent a new reason to be frothing at the mouth over a computer program
Had to use Word 365 today and found out that when you type a non-ASCII character like ø or ä, it will just ignore everything else you type after it and actually discard the whole rest of the sentence once you press Enter. 🤯
IT'S 2025 GODDAMNIT THE EIGHTIES CALLED AND WANT THEIR ENCODING PROBLEMS BACK. 🤬
Oooh, sorry, I've been using MsOffice on desktop only, as much as I can, so don't know, but I'll test and eventually report to Microsoft. Are there any special conditions or can I just start typing in, say, French or Ukrainian for the text to disappear?
Every time I read a post here about Jaws pricing, or figuring out how to transfer licenses, or which license types can be moved and under what rules, I am tempted to reply that NVDA has none of these problems. I am fully aware that certain use cases require Jaws, and that having multiple players in this space is good. Scripting, tech support, tools that aren't screen-reading but are made simpler for some people to access, and other reasons all exist. Still, the temptation is there.
I agree completely. For a while I was reluctant to use NVDA just out of habit, but eventually I started and never stopped. Now I have a JAWS licence for work if I need it (with a dongle) but I haven't used it in years.
I hear you, but at the same time I feel like it's the same as all the Linux people telling windows to just 'Switch to Linux.' I'm nobody's idea of a jfw lover, I actually can't stand it, but we have to bring them over to the dark side with cookies, not marmite lol
@FreakyFwoof There is a subtil but inportant difference here: NVDA can replace JFW in most if not all cases, given the time investment to change. Linux can’t replace Windows or Mac for the average person much less for most blind people.

The feeling when you are watching a presentation from 2008 and you get to the design tenets of GNOME, except they were the design tenets of the Microsoft Office team, circa 2003
This toot brought to you by me watching a 90 minutes presentation given by Jensen Harris at MIX 2008 on the story of how the Office team designed, prototyped, and user-tested the ribbon in Office 2007
Oh no, the consensus opinion seems to be that people hate the Ribbon UI, so maybe that isn't as successful a design ethos at is seems.
I really wish there was more funding for extensive scientific user studies to hone UI development, as a lot of designers seem to be unteathered to feedback, so all the hard work to create a logical, consistent set of principals, ends up not being effective because it isn't tested enough against how real people use things (both newbies and seasoned users with more expectations).
Most UI development these days happens with web apps, and there doesn't seem to be HIG for web apps as respected as the old IBM CUA or Mac HIG, every company seems to be learning UI design from scratch because the web platform allows you to design _anything_ without many guardrails.
Jensen Harris tells the story of the creation, design, and history of the Microsoft Office Ribbon, introduced in Office 2007.Part of MIX08 in Las Vegas.

no... But in a similar vein, I like code review bots like sorcery and Gemini. Even if you ignore 90% of the feedback it picks up plenty that humans won't. And the PR submitter has feedback even before a human looks at it.
"...well apart from the now thousands of examples of it being dangerously unreliable for any practical commercial use whatsoever, but for the purposes of this speech we'll ignore all those because I have grossly overvalued stock and am eyeing a nice waterfront property in Malibu."

Finally I disabled the sound notification from Thunderbird.
Interestingly this trigger a bug in pipewire: when Thunderbird want to play the notification while I paused a video, I hear a little bit of the video sound. Like it's flushing the audio buffer.

Es ist es an der Zeit zu prüfen, ob ein die Privatsphäre respektierendes Betriebssystem wie Linux nicht besser zu Ihren Bedürfnissen passt. Linux enthält keine eingebaute Spyware, Linux-Distributionen machen keine Screenshots ohne Zustimmung und Linux verwendet offenen Quellcode, den jeder überprüfen kann.
Sogar Microsoft verwendet Linux - wer hätte das gedacht! 😎
The amount of AI slop returned when searching for developer topics has gotten so bad that I've started limiting my searches to results from before 2024. It helps a lot, but RIP Internet ... 😒
I'ts not just vibe coding; SAAS has just destroyed people's ideas of how fast computers are or what anything costs.
I'm in a... somewhat awkward conversation in a different forum where people are talking about a database migration that's "millions of rows" and "as many as 57k transactions month" and I'm sitting here thinking, ok so on average a transaction every 40 seconds or so, have you considered putting it on an SD card and mailing it.
"Between approximately 00:34 and 01:48 (Beijing Time, UTC+8) on August 20, 2025, the Great Firewall of China (GFW) exhibited anomalous behavior by unconditionally injecting forged TCP `RST+ACK` packets to disrupt all connections on TCP port 443"
I don't see it in our logs but then again, we're blocked in China aside from the Military & "elites".
The Great Firewall of China (GFW) conducted a large-scale, unconditional block targeting TCP port 443 on August 20, 2025. This report documents the measurements and analysis we conducted of that event.
Do the military and elites have their own, less-restrictive version of the GFW, or are they just allowed to use a VPN / more proficient with using one?

PSA for anyone else who uses Thunderbird with the Owl add-on to access Exchange or Microsoft 365: If you restart Thunderbird and find that your Exchange account is suddenly gone, it's probably because you were auto-updated to Thunderbird 142. The Owl update that supports Thunderbird 142 is still in review, but in the meantime you can download it directly from the developer here: beonex.com/owl/owl.xpi
@archos Asi uz facha. Jen se ted snazim nacist obsah tootu abych ho mohl zpracovat. A resim jak. Potrebuju jednu promennou z toho tootu. Dal nemam problem.
You have not experienced a proper embedded Linux system until you've booted a board with a serial connection to your PC for debugging. Better still if the board has an open boot-loader (e.g. u-boot), not the Raspberry Pi closed boot firmware.
I recently bought such a board, which also has a USB serial interface that works with no hassle even on a Windows PC. It's the eval kit for this SoM. Not cheap; maybe I can justify it with a proper project someday. variscite.com/product/system-o…
Variscite VAR-SOM-MX8M-MINI System on Module / Computer on Module based on NXP’s i.MX 8M Mini with up to 1.8GHz Quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 plus 400MHz Cortex-M4 real-time CPU. Contact us.
I'm hoping the boot process for the imx8m SoC is well-documented enough that it would be practical to boot into Redox OS with a Rust boot loader. Rust all the way down the stack.
But for now, I have real work I have to get back to.
Hello Matt, ARM SoC support for Redox OS can improve quickly. U-boot supports UEFI emulation which allows the Redox OS bootloader to run. Our bootloader, kernel, and drivers support some common devicetree devices. I'd love to work on a common ARM device we could all get cheaply and work together on.
@soller I've been looking at various ARM boards, and for now I've settled on the RK3588 SoC because Collabora has been doing a lot of work on getting support for that chip's various features into mainline Linux and u-boot. I just recently bought a Radxa Rock 5B board. I don't yet know how to connect to a serial port on that board for debugging though, or if there's a way to do so with that board.
I'm also now convinced that the very idea of a computer having visual UI in its boot firmware is a relic of a bygone era when computers were scarce. The proper way to customize and debug the boot process of a computer is with another computer.
I believe that my XGS-PON with APC connector fiber transceiver with MAC functions to SFP+ converters are true embedded Linux systems. They certainly run Linux with a Busybox shell, use UBI filesystems, have an A/B flash architecture, provide full serial console access from boot via pins on the SFP+ connector, and they have a 400 MHZ MIPS processor with 512MB of RAM. They're pretty shweet tiny little systems that allow me to spoof my fiber modem to my ISP, so to them it looks like their modem, with all appropriate identifiers, and to me, its a device that I fully control, and the ISP can't reboot it for firmware updates whenever they like, and it acts as a bridge, rather than a routing device, so they can't see my internal network. They just see the single WAN connection of my router.
@adam Nice. Yeah, that qualifies. Didn't mean to gatekeep, was just expressing excitement at watching a system boot over a serial interface for the first time.
I didn't interpret as gatekeeping. I was excited to hear of your embedded Linux adventure, and was excited to share my experiences. Perhaps I shouldn't have suggested if it qualifies or not.
To clarify, I didn't mean to gatekeep; I was mostly just excited at watching a boot sequence starting from u-boot SPL over a serial interface for the first time. Yeah, I know, it's nothing new, but somewhat to my embarrassment, it was new to me.
Interestingly, though the eval board itself is powered by a 12V DC adapter and not USB power, the USB serial interface is powered by the host; the device remains present on the host PC even if I cut board power.
Now I just need to get sighted help to locate the boot selector switch so I can have the proper fearless tinkering experience on this board by booting from microSD rather than eMMC (which is currently pre-loaded with the vendor's Yocto demo image).
The other thing I noticed while playing with the Yocto image last night is that when I play audio through headphones, it's lacking bass. I couldn' find the proper ALSA mixer control to fix that, if there is one. I hope it's some kind of configuration issue and not inherent to the hardware, or that if it _is_ a hardware issue, it's an issue with the carrier board and not the SoM. Whatever project I ultimately do with this board will definitely involve audio.
On the bright side, the built-in DAC is capable of a healthy volume with minimal hiss and no other noise that I've heard so far. True to the advertising for the WM8904 DAC that this SoM is using, there's no clicking when powering the DAC up and down.
"Fittingly, the 1,350-person Translation Bureau is leading the way in the federal government in experimenting with AI. It is developing the first project under Ottawa’s AI strategy meant to serve as a showpiece for what government can do with technology: a self-serve automated #translation tool for civil servants.
If the government is serious, the Bureau should set itself on a mission to all but put itself out of business, and to drastically cut the amount Ottawa spends on its services to fulfill its Official Languages Act obligations. If the translation profession is largely disappearing, so too should government spending and employment in the area, showing that AI could deliver meaningful cost savings and operating efficiencies."
I'd rather see a self-serve tax filing system, instead of a "must pay oligarchs a fee and give them all your confidential and sensitive data to do mandatory filings with the Government"
I guess the priorities are NOT Canadian.
I would hope the OQLF would object, but then I'm a dreamer here.
@hub The OQLF can’t do anything about it. It’s a provincial organization. It has no business getting involved in how Ottawa runs the federal government.
@bougiewonderland but if a menu has the wrong font size, yeah they unleash the wrath.
I would expect that they would have jurisdiction in objecting about the way the federal Govt want to communicate in French with the Province of Québec.
As I said, I'm a dreamer. I dreamer of a world that is functional.
But again I don't hope. The moron in charge here probably has been advised to not miss out on the opportunity to get rid of workers for some AI garbage is was bribed about.
#NextCloud really drove me angry. They simply choose to ignore accessibility concerns in favor of so-called "security". It's absolutely none of their business to protect users from viruses and trojans, and saying that "We can't allow one-press copy public link because a script can call this API" is total BS, because in this case any attacker script has access to every file on that PC! Great job, NextCloud, great job. Whenever someone tells me once more about "giving up big corporations", I'll point them to this issue. And yes, I really hope someone sues them because their #desktop client is a total accessibility nightmare. github.com/nextcloud/desktop/i… #OpenSource #Accessibility
Hi, The public share link has been removed with the 3.15 client version. Could it be possible to bring back this feature ? Below, a screen from a right click on a folder/file with the 3.14.3 client...
Пиздец ебалаи. По такой их логике можно вообще зарубить всё что угодно. Но понятно что это просто ответ на отъебись. Молодцы, желаю им всяческих провалов в бизнесе.
@Yinshi ага. Ну типа вот ссылка, там секьюрити рекомендация, это же кто угодно может скриптом запросить апишку! Блядь, а ничего что кто угодно в этом случае может ко всем, сука, файлам доступиться?
Почитал комменты, посмотрел репо. Это ещё и клиент на Qt для полного счастья. Вопросы про accessibility отпали сами собой, можно примерно представить что там происходит и каково этим пользоваться, причём всем без исключения юзерам.
This is one of many examples of why I use a specific 2.x version for all clients and refuse to update. They’re creating security problems by breaking the client in different creative ways every update.
Mind you, I have zero complaints about the server and web sides. It’s **just** the desktop client which is regressive and broken.
@ClickyMcTicker Would Indiegogo/Kickstarter/*insert sponsorship feature of version-control system here* be in the realm of possibility? Figure there would be quite a bit of contributions, even among non-AT users who simply want what could no doubt be a significantly more resource-efficient client.
@jackf723 @ClickyMcTicker Yes, I'm thinking about it, however it's a little bit scary, I've never done that before. Will need to assess costs and probably go for it, yes.
And I say Matrix instead of naming a client because every single client refuses to notify for it so I imagine it's something in the spec.
Thanks!
