Sieht so aus, als würde sich mein aktueller Lieblings-Fedi-Client Mona in eine Richtung entwickeln, die ich nicht mehr unterstützenswert finde (Quatschige GenAI überall, komische Implementierung von Rich Text, neues Pricing, …) und deshalb wohl bald mal wieder wechseln muss. Gibts neben Feditext (das immer noch in Beta und halbfertig ist) irgendwelche empfehlenswerten Alternativen für das Apple-Ökosystem?

According to Nevada's report into its recent ransomware attack, a state employee "searched Google for a system administration tool to download and was instead shown a malicious advertisement that led to a fraudulent website impersonating the legitimate project."

Yeah, that happens a lot! An ad-blocker is one of your top security and privacy defenses online. If you work in an enterprise org, consider rolling out an ad-blocker to your company network!

FFmpeg to Google Fund Us or Stop Sending Bugs: thenewstack.io/ffmpeg-to-googl… by @sjvn

The clash between small volunteer-driven, open-source projects, such as FFmpeg & the billion-dollar companies built on their work, which demand rapid security patches, is heating up.

Finally, got my mom Bitwarden Premium vault, inclluded her into my back ups and about to connect as emergency contacts. This was really necessery. She's been using apple keychain before and basically all the passwords where alerting, beeing inmlcuded in a breach or reused. And when already changing, why not directly save to a proper PW Manager not Apple ID which could theoretically log you out as well and is just not made for that kind of stuff?
in reply to Andrew Hodgson

@andrew I was considering it for a while but I don't think we're going to get more at this point, I assume all my other family members use apple keychain as well but, without wanting to sound disrespectful or anything, I think they're capable of managing their stuff a bit better, including recovery options etc. I just want to be sure nothing happens with the stuff of my mom, as she's just not more techy than she needs to be, which is fine, but also brings risks in 2025 where reusing the same 7 letter password without 2FA might be a bit, uh...

As a Linux user starved for accessible document/ebook-reading options, I've been envious of all the Paperback chatter I've seen recently. So I threw making a Linux port at Claude Code with superpowers. Here's what it came up with so far, for anyone who uses Flatpak: nextcloud.thewordnerd.info/s/2…

flatpak install --user paperback.flatpak Haven't verified everything yet but I'm able to open a book, read it accessibly, close the book, re-open the application without specifying the book, and appear where I left off. Continuous read/paging also seems to work under Orca. You might need to set a universal ACCESSIBILITY_ENABLED=1 environment variable override for all flatpaks, though I haven't explicitly tested without that.

PR including Nix packaging/development setup incoming soonish once I've looked over everything, as one should with these sorts of things. Still though, works way better than ebook-convert <whatever> .txt, opening in gnome-text-editor, and suffering.

in reply to Quin

You're welcome, thanks for your work. I'll check the diff today, but you can check out github.com/ndarilek/paperback/… in the meantime. I'll likely be squashing more commits onto that branch today if I spot any fun Claudeisms in the patch, as sometimes happens.

One thing I've noticed not working are hotkeys in the text area''specifically tested [ and ]. Both just give a terminal bell and do nothing. I know WX uses GTK3 on Linux and suspect it's using something else that's actually accessible on Windows, and there's a difference between how read-only textareas in GTK handle being typed in. Fortunately the menu items work, but we might need to add ctrl or similar to these and other hotkeys under Linux.

Also, the TOC tree is inaccessible, again likely due to GTK (though GTK tree views certainly work fine.) So it isn't a perfect port, but even so it's good to finally have something like QRead under Linux.

It's time for an update! Check out our blog for a new update on:

It's not that new actually and it will get better soon, since they are working on those and many things. Next year SimpleX Chat will be far more better and specially since they are working on communites, channels and more.

I will see about replicating this setup with Snapcast next weekend to compare. I'm sure Snapcast is more polished, but it's less focused on working over unreliable networks. Not that I have to deal with any unreliable networks, it's just that Roc seemed more interesting in that aspect as there are some other projects I might be able to leverage it for so it was worth exploring anyway

I guess I should post a link to the recording of my #DENOG17 talk, in case anyone needs a downer with the poor state of #IPv6 multihoming 😅 media.ccc.de/v/denog17-78841-i…

Django's built-in admin is powerful, but it's essentially a separate framework within Django. After attempting to modernize django-admin2, I realized we needed a fresh approach: an admin interface that works like the rest of Django, built on generic CBVs, plugins, and view factories. Meet Django Admin Deux: a proof-of-concept admin where CRUD operations are just actions, knowledge transfers both ways, and everything feels like Django.

Just wait until you hear about "uber for nurses" and other "innovative" and "disruptive" approaches to labor exploitation that is coming soon to Europe and the UK as the leaders capitulate to removing the regulations and safeguards we currently enjoy protecting us from US companies just to avoid having to temporarily deal with tariffs. Ask the average European about whether or not they would rather temporarily deal with any economic hardship the tariffs may introduce in a society that has safety nets in place and has experience with dealing with hardship vs avoiding temporary discomfort now in exchange for the inevitable stripping of any and all consumer and labor protections for you, your children, and however many generations are left before the planet bursts into flames (ironically because of the same bad actors). I don't know about you, but I'd rather deal with the former to support the greater good and keep this off our shores.

My son is in Ontario on Remembrance Day (our name for Armistice Day in Canada) for the first time and he was shocked it wasn’t a public holiday like it is in B.C.

He was disappointed to be in Ottawa, just a few minutes away from the National War Memorial by metro, but couldn’t attend because he has classes today.

I agree with him. It is very strange that this day, of all days, is not a national day.

So instead he rushed through his class so he could at least get to the small ceremony held on campus.

How sad that there is so little time and space made for it in our largest and most populous province.

Even in our nation’s capital.

@fastfinge good point. Perhaps if they provided a location for the blind close to the front of the proceedings so you could properly hear all of the goings on it would be beneficial. It might give you a different feeling to be able to hear the call of the guards, the music and bagpipes, the guns in the distance, the aircraft, the live words from the speakers, the silence at the time.

🐾 Lillys Tagebuch – 11.11.2025 🐾

Also ehrlich, ständig nur lieb sein – das ist auf Dauer echt anstrengend 😼. Ich bin schließlich Katze, kein goldener Schoßengel mit Fell und Pfoten! Heute habe ich mal wieder die Nerven meiner Zweibeiner auf Belastbarkeit getestet. Ganz wissenschaftlich natürlich.

Zuerst bin ich über die Tastatur spaziert 🖥️ – man muss ja wissen, ob die Buchstaben noch alle an ihrem Platz sind. Danach ging’s über den hohen Glastisch, auf dem sich ein ganzes Technikmuseum befand: Kameras, Handy, Ladegeräte… Ich habe nichts umgeschmissen – fast nichts 😇. Dann kurz einen Abstecher auf den Bürotisch, wo Kaffeetasse ☕ und Papierstapel eine herrliche Versuchung boten. Einmal Pfote drauf – und schwupps, flog ein Zettel wie ein Schmetterling durchs Zimmer. Wunderschön!

Mein persönliches Highlight 🎯: der Kühlschrank! Ein magischer Ort mit Licht, Düften und unendlichen Möglichkeiten. Ich bin einfach reingehuscht – und ehrlich gesagt: Ich hatte nicht vor, so schnell wieder rauszukommen. Es war gemütlich! Leider war mein Aufenthalt nur kurz… Mecker, Mecker, Tür zu.

Und als wäre mein Arbeitstag nicht schon aufregend genug, stehen hier neuerdings komische Geräte herum, die heiß pusten oder sogar offenes Feuer haben 🔥. Angeblich, weil „die Heizung immer noch nicht funktioniert“. Tsss. Ich finde, mir hätte man das zuerst sagen müssen! Schließlich bin ich hier die wichtigste Person im Haus 👑🐾.

Na gut, ich geb’s zu – vielleicht habe ich heute ein bisschen übertrieben. Aber wenn meine Zweibeiner mich dann anschauen, seufzen und sagen: „Ach Lilly…“, dann weiß ich: Sie lieben mich trotzdem. Hoffe ich zumindest. 😺💛

Bis morgen, meine treuen Fans –
Eure Lilly 🐾✨

WordWeb Dictionary for Windows has major accessibility issues with JAWS 2026 and NVDA 2025.3.1.
In the Definitions area, JAWS reads many words only partially and replaces parts with spaces. Even when navigating left and right, you can actually hear or feel the spaces.
Interestingly, NVDA doesn’t have this problem, but every time you press Up or Down in the Definitions area, NVDA says “read-only edit box,” which makes reading definitions quite annoying. Both JAWS and NVDA also fail to read the last few lines of definitions and examples, as the cursor cannot move there. SHIFT+Up and SHIFT+Down do not work either.
Additionally, neither JAWS nor NVDA reads the part of speech or numbering information for each definition. SayAll with Insert+Down doesn't work either.
I’ve sent a detailed report to the developer of WordWeb Dictionary, at their request, and I hope they’ll address these accessibility issues soon.
