Ich durfte meinen ersten eigenen Pixel bei @pixelebbe auf dem #39c3 setzen. Ich bin so glücklich. 🥲
Es klappte direkt im zweiten Anlauf und der Prozess hat hervorragend das unangenehme Gefühle behördlicher passiver Gewalt abgebildet. Der "Beamte" und die "Behörde" haben ihren Job also gut gemacht: keine Unterstützung, warten auf eine Nummer, unverständliche Formulare, dürftiges Leistungsspektrum.
Gerne wieder. :)
Auf gute Pixelnachbarschaft @elsvene
Things like student loan debt is great, because it puts workers into massive debt before going into the workforce, which gives capitalists leverage over us.
But really it doesn't go far enough. We should just be born with debt. Babies have been getting off scot-free for far too long.
Happy Birthday to those who refuse to give some random forum software their actual birth date 🥳

Not open source:

So it will be illegal to manufacture it for a friend, manufacture replacement parts and sell them etc. ...

I'll be at #FOSDEM this year together with @IzzyOnDroid as part of my involvement with #IzzyOnDroid.
However, I figured, if I go there, why not order some #Catima stickers. After all, Catima is an app available on IzzyOnDroid :) They just came in and they look nice :)
Make sure to ping me at FOSDEM or visit the IzzyOnDroid stand to get one!

In response to the articles circulated recently about people who are switching to Linux as their desktop operating system, I note that my first desktop Linux experience was in 1998. I investigated hardware compatibility, bought a new laptop, and a friend installed Linux on it for me. (The installation process wasn't accessible with a screen reader in those days.) I used Emacspeak to provide a spoken interface to the operating system. Unfortunately, my braille display wasn't supported - eventually fixed in the mid 2000s. Graphical X11 applications were not accessible either, but that, too, was rectified in the mid 2000s. In the late 90s, I didn't need GUI tools anyway. The modern JavaScript-intensive Web has changed that situation fundamentally.
Non-visual access to Linux continues to improve, albeit slowly and with highly constrained development resources. Although I've had (and continue to have) other operating systems, I still consider Linux my primary desktop computing environment.

Európsky parlament sa zaoberal otázkou tzv. vojenskej mobility v EÚ, teda schopnosti členských štátov rýchlo a efektívne presúvať ozbrojené sily, techniku a materiál cez hranice. Táto téma nadväzuje na zhoršenú bezpečnostnú situáciu v Európe a skúsenosti z posledných rokov, ktoré ukázali, že EÚ nie je na rýchlu reakciu v krízových situáciách vždy dostatočne pripravená. Parlament preto zdôrazňuje potrebu lepšej koordinácie medzi štátmi a odstránenia praktických prekážok, ktoré dnes presuny výrazne spomaľujú.
Jedným z hlavných problémov sú administratívne a technické bariéry. V súčasnosti môže presun vojenskej techniky cez viacero členských štátov trvať týždne až mesiace, najmä kvôli rozdielnym povoleniam, pravidlám a nedostatočne prispôsobenej infraštruktúre. Parlament poukazuje na to, že mnohé cesty, mosty či železnice nie sú dimenzované na ťažkú vojenskú techniku, čo výrazne obmedzuje schopnosť rýchlej reakcie v prípade krízy alebo ohrozenia bezpečnosti.
Dôležitým prvkom je aj spolupráca medzi členskými štátmi a koordinácia s medzinárodnými partnermi. Parlament zdôrazňuje, že posilňovanie vojenskej mobility má prebiehať v súlade so spoluprácou v rámci NATO a pri plnom rešpektovaní suverenity jednotlivých štátov. Nejde o vytváranie „európskej armády“, ale o lepšie fungovanie existujúcich obranných kapacít a ich schopnosť rýchlo reagovať v prípade potreby.
Zlepšenia v oblasti vojenskej mobility nemajú význam len v čase konfliktu. Investície do infraštruktúry, zrýchlenie administratívnych procesov a lepšia koordinácia môžu mať pozitívny vplyv aj v mierových časoch, napríklad pri humanitárnych zásahoch, krízovom manažmente či civilnej ochrane. Parlament preto vníma túto tému ako súčasť širšej stratégie posilňovania bezpečnosti a odolnosti Európskej únie.
Postoj Európskeho parlamentu má v tomto prípade politický charakter a slúži ako východisko pre ďalšie rokovania s Európskou komisiou a Radou EÚ. Cieľom je postupne pretaviť tieto odporúčania do konkrétnych opatrení, ktoré by v praxi zlepšili pripravenosť EÚ reagovať na bezpečnostné výzvy, bez toho, aby sa znižovala kontrola členských štátov nad vlastnou obranou.
O Brne sa hovorí, že je to konglomerácia nezávislých dedín spojených električkou. Európska únia mi často krát pripadá ako konglomerácia nezávislých štátov spojených Schengenon 😕
Sme susedia, čiastočne súrodenci, ale nakoľko sme aj spolupracovníci?
Na veľa veciach strácame hromadu peňazí, času, energie len preto, že ich nekoordinujeme a každý sa hrá na vlastnom piesočku.
Čo sa týka ozbrojených síl, je už po najvyššom čase dať aspoň niektoré armády dokopy a vytvoriť európsku armádu. Na začiatok nemusí byť plná, stačilo by pár dôležitých krajín. Podobne ako si Schengenon, eurom a vlastne aj európskou úniou. Kto by chcel , ten by sa pridal.

„Many weak and few strong links“ seems to be a common pattern in many ecological networks. 1st author Franziska Koch shows that this pattern can enable stabilising effects of network structure, using competitive hierarchies as a case study. We argue that skewed link strength distributions should hence receive more attention, especially in studies based on #RandomMatrixTheory.

I'd like you to know some numbers.
340.
That's the number of brand new billionaires we made in 2025. Roughly one a day and more than any other year.
9 million.
That's the number of people who died of hunger in 2025. Over 24,000 every single day for an entire year.
40 billion.
That's the number of dollars it would cost to end world hunger. Not to alleviate it. Not to lessen it. To eradicate it.
11.
That's the percentage tax we would have needed to impose on ONLY new wealth on ONLY billionaires in ONLY 2025 in order to eradicate world hunger. Eleven percent. That's all. Compared to the vast coffers of wealth they've already accumulated that's a rounding error.
Eat the rich. Tax them now.

2025 had ups and downs, but I loved my 2025 at #IzzyOnDroid.
Our team has grown with several new members and we launched izzyondroid.org/, our new web home!
We even got our first grant ever (thanks, @nlnet!), allowing us to bring download statistics to IzzyOnDroid and integrate it directly into #NeoStore (and soon #Droidify), improve the #ReproducibleBuild system and more.
I'm grateful to the team for giving me a space where I feel able to make a difference ❤️
Here is to 2026! 🎉

the AI slop in security reports have developed slightly over time. Less mind-numbingly stupid reports now, but instead almost *everyone* writes their reports with AI so they still get overly long and complicated to plow through. And every follow-up question is another minor essay discussing pros and cons with bullet points and references to multiple specifications.
Exhausting nonetheless.

We should talk about the availability of basic medicine without doctor’s prescription. Basic painkillers, nose sprays, typical medicine for seasonal viral infections.
This is not available in Austria without prescription and I’ve had enough of this paternalistic bullshit attitude.
I don’t believe doctors want to clog up their waiting rooms with very simple cases of flu/covid infections.
I think one reason we still have this is without it doctors visits would be just about the paperwork.
