Getting very grumpy with people ghosting me over several #Accessibility fails I gave feedback for over the last month or so.

Emailed Winchester Christmas Market organisers because despite the event being listed as fully accessible, there was no way for a wheelchair user to actually approach 95% of the stalls there because they were up a step. Got an auto-mail stating the inbox was regularly monitored and they aim to respond to everything within 1-2 business days. No response. 3 weeks and waiting.

Emailed Showcase cinema because of poor quality viewing despite paying extra for fancy seats, the wheelchair accessible ones were right at the front and the image was warped and weird and the audio was atrocious. Plus one of the seats was broken and wouldn't recline.
One response from a manager asking if the staff member we'd spoken to about the broken seat offered us anything (they didn't), no response since. 2 weeks and waiting.

I’ve been playing around with the multitrack processing in @auphonic and it is both incredibly awesome and incredibly frustrating at the same time.

It’s. So. Close… to being a complete workflow.

Hey Guys, gals, people and pets, Satya Nadella is getting tired of people calling AI Slop output AI Slop. If everyone can stop that's be great as it is upsetting Microslops share holders.

Don't start calling Microslop Microslop or use the #microslop tag as it might burst the AI bubble and then Microslop might have to take SlopPilot out of Windows. As you know, that would be terrible.

rustls is definitely much better, and aws-lc-rs is likely a good idea

but i'm frustated at how poor the experience is for windows users

“Billionaires will leave if you tax them”:

1. No they won’t
2. They leave even when you don’t tax them
3. Things get better for most people when they leave
4. They say this so you won’t tax them

Good morning everyone. :)

I hope you all have a wonderful Monday.

This is the first science post of 2026, and hopefully I will be able to do more this year.
The Holidays were great and very awesome.

Always remember, you matter and to always be kind.

Today we are gonna be talking about The Integrated Circuit.

An integrated circuit (IC) is a miniature electronic circuit in which thousands to billions of electronic components such as transistors, resistors, capacitors, and diodes-are fabricated onto a single small piece of semiconductor material, usually silicon. Instead of building circuits with separate components, an IC combines them into a single, compact, and efficient unit. Because everything is built onto a single chip, ICs are smaller, faster, more reliable, and more energy-efficient than circuits made from discrete components.

Don't believe those who loudly claim email can not avoid metadata! They are ignorant of our continuous works on minimizing metadata:

DONE:

- no phone number other identifying data needed
- no cleartext "Subject"
- no cleartext "To"
- randomized "Date"
- no IP addresses
- group/avatar/attachment/etc metadata only contained in encrypted message parts

Upcoming:

- servers to never see cryptographic ID metadata
- remove "threading" and auxilliary headers
- experiment with Sealed Sender

heheh, aattelin suojata nextcloud-tiedostojaon salasanalla. ei mitään turhan monimutkaista, kun tää ei ole mikään topsecret-juttu, lähinnä sloppaajien estämiseksi.

valitsin salasanaksi FuckUSA. nextcloud ilmoittaa, että salasana on miljoonan yleisimmän joukossa, valitse joku vaikeampi :D

The Indonesian discourse over dogs is really disgusting and despicable. They’re willing to haramize an entire species just because the saliva is haram. They’re willing to ignore hadiths and surahs saying dogs are friends and guardians, and tales about heavenly rewards for feeding starving dogs, all just because they can’t be fucked to use water and soap.

The Quran actually advised Muslims to consume meat from an animal caught by dogs trained to hunt because it’s meant for consumption. And yet people have gone out of their way to pretend the verse didn’t mention dogs when it specifically does.

Well, the numbers are in: 72% of all electricity in the EU in 2025 came from low carbon sources.

67% if you want to exclude biofuels, which "low carbon" credentials are disputable.

When was the last time you went out for a few hours, without any device?

a worthwhile read about sitting alone somewhere without any connected devices candost.blog/the-unbearable-jo…

Since 10 years, i am also doing this weird thing where my mobile is mostly offline, only using WIFI here and there, but i am going to more often leave devices completely at home. It's really crazy how much this once normal situation is like a super-big deal these days.
