Ich hab zwei Fragen an @delta: Erstens, kann ich einen Account zu einem anderen Server umziehen oder muss ich einen neuen erstellen und allen Kontakten den neuen Account mitteilen und zweitens

Spricht eigentlich irgendwas gegen #Delta Chat? Ich mein, #Signal ist toll, aber Meredith Whittaker hat bereits angekündigt, dass sie sich aus Europa zurückziehen werden, sollte die #Chatkontrolle kommen.

Delta Chat

You can read here how to migrate to a new relay: support.delta.chat/t/how-to-mi…

How chatcontrol will be implemented and what to do against is is hard to predict without a concrete proposal, so let's see.


How to migrate your profile to another relay (version 2.33)

Let’s say you have initially created a profile on the default relay and want to migrate away from it. Update at least to 2.33 on all your devices: Help testing upcoming Delta Chat 2.33.

I cannot say this authoritatively, but I inquired about the scope of the gpg.fail vulnerabilities that affect GnuPG (and at least one also affecting Sequioa, a Rust PGP implementation) to see if any of these things are a concern for DeltaChat and the response was that they are all out of scope for how DeltaChat uses PGP.

also DeltaChat uses rpgp, not GnuPG or Sequioa, and rpgp has been audited a couple times.

Manchmal wünschte ich, Leute gäben sich mehr Mühe zu lesen, was ich schreibe und nicht was sie lesen wollen.

Mela: "Jeder kann Politiker werden."

Menschen:
- "Aber ich habe in Partei X Erfahrung Y gemacht."
- "In den Parteien wird um jeden Posten geklügelt."
- "Bei der CDU wird man ohne Verbindungen nichts."
- "Ich bin wieder ausgetreten, weil …"
- "Für Menschen mit Sozialphobie geht das nicht."
- "etc etc"

Ich habe gesagt: Jeder kann Politiker werden.

I've noticed, of late, NVDA randomly freezes on my production machine, when at home, simply pressing control+alt+N restarts NVDA and all is well, but this naturally does not work when accessing the machine remotely. I can connect, but can't read or control anything. Is there some way to trap whatever leads up to this, and if so, report this semi-crash to someone who would find such information useful?

wow what are some of these baffingly bizarre replies:

> “I’m a Lisp hacker, so I know a great deal about linked lists; the C language string interface is effectively an unnecessary interface mimicking that for linked lists”

Yeah uhh, first that makes no sense, second having worked with Erlang I can tell you linked lists are a terrible way to represent strings, so bad that C arguably does it better

it's crazy that we do this. Sometimes my dog refuses to eat her chicken until it has been washed again or set out for a while (as the chlorine will break down, faster with direct UV light). She must be able to smell it even when we can't.

makes you wonder how much chlorine Americans are ingesting every day

Interstellar is a Fediverse client for Mbin/Lemmy/PieFed accounts. Having found the final culprit that kept it from being RB (after 6 months, and it was just a single thing to toggle! RBs can be bitches sometimes…), we finally succeeded :awesome:

So raising the bar a little again, RB status is now at 774 apps (60.5%)

You've all seen countless of pictures of cats squeezed into boxes too small to contain them, by their own doing.

This means that cats are able to use clever compression algorithms to reduce their size in that particular situation.

But which algorithm are they using?

  • sit (stuffit) - i fit, i sit (21%, 13 votes)

  • 7zip - because cats have at least 7 lives (23%, 14 votes)

GNOME in 2025: Some Numbers

As some of you know, I like aggregating data. So here are some random numbers about GNOME in 2025. This post is not about making any point with the numbers I’m sharing. It’s just for fun. So, what...

OK, so I said this before, but sometimes I really hate being blind. On the flipside though, when I watch a show or movie with audio description and it's well done, I sometimes get more information than sighted people.

For example, when Apple TV+ released Hijack, many of the discussions I saw on Reddit were confused about which character was which. I personally found it really easy to follow the plot, because the AD writer was really good about keeping on top of all the fast paced action going on throughout. Also for shows like The Mandalorian or really any Marvel movie, it seems like the description company and studio worked together when creating the AD track. To me, they come across as higher quality and feel more like a part of the show / movie than other descriptive tracks I've heard.

Oh honestly...
So I make a mistake during a game of 1000 miles, meaning I get trounced. Then I accidentally shut down the computer when instead, I'm trying to copy files from my downloads. And then my bleeping computer almost goes and puts me back on the shut down button a second time.
Yet, trust @daygar to make me laugh out loud twice in five minutes.

I saw my aunt this weekend. I always admired her growing up: she was a dedicated dancer, bird watcher, traveler, and general arts-enjoyer. I took up ballet and piano because I wanted to be just like her.

I just found out that she started all of those hobbies after she got sober in her 40s, shortly before I was born. Her defining characteristics, in my eyes, have occupied less than half of her life.

It was a nice reminder that you can start a new chapter of your life whenever you’d like.
