Aber in den 90ern und 00ern waren die Gehwege in Hamburg doch wirklich noch zuverlässiger von Schnee geräumt als heute, oder? Oder bin ich einfach ein grumpy old Man geworden, der denkt „früher war alles besser“?
Ich vermute, der Eindruck kann damit zu tun haben, dass früher ja auf Gehwegen mit Salz gestreut werden durfte, was inzwischen verboten ist. Man hat also einfach die Gehwege wie die Straßen mit Salz gestreut. Die waren dann natürlich freier, aber z. B. Hundepfoten haben das überhaupt nicht vertragen. Ich erinnere mich an mehrere Pflegesessions mit meinem damaligen BFH wegen dieser Problematik.
@marcozehe aber doch nicht mehr in den 90ern??? Mein Eindruck ist auch, dass das Räumen zuverlässiger geklappt hat. Gestern festgestellt: bei meinem Sohn in Wilhelmsburg: gut geräumt - bis zur S-Veddel, da nicht. Bei uns: teilweise. Glaube, der eine Laden bei uns unten hat selber vir dek Block geräumt - es ist hier nur unser Abschnitt frei.
@FrauNaja Die Verkehrsbehörde hat gestern das Streuen mit Salz auf Geh- und Nebenwegen bis 21.01. wieder erlaubt, so zu lesen im Newsletter "Elbvertiefung" der zeit Hamburg von heute. Ich kann nur sagen, dass mein Hund, den ich zwischen 2002 und 2011 hatte, gerade in den Anfangsjahren definitiv im Winter desöfteren Probleme mit rissigen Ballen wegen Salz hatte. Und ja, manche Eigentümer vergessen anscheinend, dass sie auch eine Räumpflicht der Gehwege vor ihren Gebäuden haben.
Hi there. We apologize for the experience. This is a measure to fight against mass-singups and miss use of Tuta Free accounts. But this is not the standard case for all user, only a handful of users get flagged. We are working on improving this mechanism to make it more efficient! 😊

#dobréRáno přátelé #fediverse ☀️ Včera první jízda na Zwiftu přes Apple TV. Ať si o Applu myslí kdo chce co chce, ale propojení zařízení mají fakt zvládnuté skvěle.
První zapnutí Apple TV? Chceš nastavit pomocí iPhonu — prostě ho přiložíš a nic dalšího neřešíš.
Pak už jen nainstalovat Zwift, přihlášení řešené přes iPhone, hesla pohodlně z Bitwardenu, žádné ťukání na dálkovém ovladači.
Apple TV jsem chtěl hlavně kvůli aplikaci Zwift pro chytrý trenažér. Na Android TV Zwift není. Zrcadlení z Androidu do TV sice jde, ale obraz se seká nebo úplně zamrzne. Zkoušel jsem i USB-C → HDMI kabel, jenže ten telefon vysaje hned baterku.Fairphone to ještě jakž takž zvládne — dvě hodiny dá.S Pixelem bych byl rád za hodinu. Výsledek? Za pět minut od zapnutí jsem seděl na kole. 🚴♂️ #zwift
Tady bych se asi hodně vztekal na výrobce, že nemá appku na Android TV. Zvlášť když má appku na Android. Jinak zkušenost s Apple TV nemám, ale spárování Google TV (Chromecast) s Google Home bylo taky naprosto seamless.
No i chuj - nadal nie mogę wejść w powiadomienia. Tym samym jakiekolwiek pisanie mija się z celem, bo ani nie wiem czy do kogokolwiek dotrę (wygląda jakbym wszyscy nagle mnie wyciszyli), ani nie wiem, czy ktokolwiek zobaczy, że coś komentuję - więc po co komentować. Ewentualnych odniesień tutaj - też nie zobaczę, bo musiałbym siedzieć i śledzić jakieś reakcje. Tyle czasu (ani potrzeby) to ja nie mam. Ponieważ nie wiem co nie działa i jak sobie z tym poradzić - mam to w dupie, poczekam aż się naprawi. Albo pójdę na inną instancję, serwer czy jak to się tam nazywa. O ile będę umiał oczywiście:)
Download curl from curl.se! Release presentation On January 7 2026, at 10:00 CET (09:00 UTC), there is a live-streamed release presentation of curl 8.18.0 done on twitch. The YouTube recording will be made available afterwards.
This is in relation to that warning I received this morning. To make a long story short, it seems that some people have been offended by some of my posts, and rather than just blocking me or unfollowing me and moving on, they reported me. At no time did I personally insult anyone, promote violence or illegal activities, threaten anyone, etc. I respect the administrators for letting me know about this, and said that I wouldn't post such things in the future. They have every right to do what they did, or even to ban me, since it is their instance and I agreed to follow their rules. I must make that very clear.
However, I am seeking a less restrictive environment. I honestly didn't think I needed one, since most of my posts are about animals, science, technology, etc. But if I can't share an opinion, even a strongly-worded one, without receiving a warning just because some people were offended, this is probably not a great match for me. It's worth noting that I constantly see posts (from other instances) full of obscenities, negative opinions about politicians, the rich, corporations and their heads, users of various operating systems, etc.
Anyway, I would prefer to stay on Mastodon because it's fully accessible, and I would like an instance with a large number of characters (this one is 16,000). If it helps, I am not a gamer, programmer, activist, don't follow politics, etc. I certainly don't want to join a place full of hate, but I do want to join one where I am free to be myself. For now, enjoy the completely wholesome posts with no more personal opinions about anything except opera, though I'll probably limit those too, in case I don't like a given singer.
Well if it's a large character count you want, try my alt-instance hear-me.social. Look at their rules and see if they fit with your thought processes.
@FreakyFwoof At first, I thought it would be fine, since the person who runs this also runs Friendica, where I have another account. But rule 1 gives ample opportunity for people to say they're offended by harmless jokes, my views on the singular they, etc. Obviously, I do not target people or deliberately insult them. But considering what happened here, I don't want more trouble. Only two posts were shown, but others were reported, and I'm not sure what they were. Maybe, something like "modern people give me a headache", "why does that need a content warning", or "many people today dress badly". I have no idea. These are just guesses. But they are also simply opinions.
Well the instance I'm writing from has 2K character limit and nothing I've ever said has gotten flagged and I've said some angry stuff over the years. Not hate speech none of that, but stuff has pissed mee off and I haven't cared to sensor it.

We did it everyone we finally achieved feature parity with the best microblogging platform, and this time people volunteer to make it worse instead! RT: mastodon.social/users/staff/st…
We plan to disable the "live feeds" of the local and federated timelines on mastodon.social within in the next couple of weeks. They are already disabled on mastodon.online.
- Removed christmas special again - Added Estonian and Telugu translations - Fixed random black video feed on video calls - Make it harder for spammers to mention everybody: ignore mentions if more than 5 participants are mentioned per message - Properly display Visitor role in Channels - Add "Request Voice" button to contact details of moderated Channels
I’m sure I missed a lot of things, but since the only reference on the topic is the - now defunct - infosec handbook website with the "admin in the middle" article, I guess that could be useful to somebody.
Krásné dobré ráno mastodoňané! 🙋♀️🐶🐈 Stále -13. Dobře, kromě pyžama a zimní bundy jsem si vzala ještě šálu. Baldín to vzal tryskem a Artur se sápal na vchodové dveře s hlasitým nadáváním. Dneska v práci končím o chvilku dřív a s pár lidmi jedeme za bývalým majitelem a zakladatelem firmy. Bylo mu devadesát. Narodil se ve stejný den jako já, jen jiný rok. Úžasný pán. Už je jako věchýteček, ale hlavu má jasnou a čistou. V podstatě všechno, čím firma disponuje a co má, je jeho práce. Těšíme se za ním všichni. Vy si taky najděte důvod k radosti pro tento den. Bude se vám lépe vstávat. 😊 #dobre_rano #dobréRáno
Pro tebe také dobré ráno! :) U nás je dnes -6. Do práce také obléknu teplé oblečení. Sníh leží na silnicích, silnice jsou zasypané, a já do práce jedu vlakem. Doufám, že dojedu. Pečuj o sebe. Příjemnou práci. :)
If anyone's looking for a fun illustration project or an opportunity to get into the GNOME artwork style: Crosswords needs some illustrations for the "How to Play" instructions :)
Currently, the hints dialog has no artwork, just the main icon repeated on each page. It would be good to get better artwork for this. Sudoku has some...
On the topic of bad takes against Flatpak, my personal favorite is "Flatpak is bad because it works badly with my NVIDIA GPU's drivers"
Consider the following: NVIDIA GPU's (proprietary) drivers work badly on Linux
Under no circumstances should volunteers in the FOSS community ever be placed in a position that forces them to bend over large corporations, even if it hurts the user experience. Besides, the ones who are actually hurting users is the corporations by making it hard for everyone.
This is also true with Fedora's hostility towards proprietary drivers. This kind of hostility should be encouraged. As a community, we should collectively shame entities that push proprietary garbage as a dependency on Linux, so long it doesn't harm security. vt.social/users/trafotin/statu…
"I will never use Flatpaks because I have to type `flatpak run com.example.Application`. It's insane Flatpak developers don't change it!"
Except you can add `/var/lib/flatpak/exports/bin` to your $PATH. This way, you can type `com.example.Application` in your terminal, dmenu, everywhere. Also if you aren't using completions and insist on doing everything in the terminal, you have bigger problems.
Whenever I browse through the web, I find many “tips and tricks” from various blog writers, YouTubers and others who recommend users to take steps that either they aren’t supposed to, or have better alternatives.
proprietary drivers may be bad and all, but if the situation is the driver doesn't work right with Flatpak, that sounds like a valid reason why the person wouldn't use Flatpak, no? "That doesn't work for me", not "volunteers should bend over".
@bugaevc hm, I suppose I phrased it ambiguously, sorry. It was meant to be in the sense of "Flatpak is bad because ..." But yes, if they simply didn't use Flatpak because their hardware worked poorly, then that's completely fair - same reason why I would probably not use Fedora if I were an NVIDIA user.
@bugaevc I'll kindly disagree with you here. Considering both AMD and Intel can write drivers which doesn't infringe on any patents and doesn't expose any of their secret sauce (AMD Catalyst and AMDGPU are completely different codebases), NVIDIA is the only one who acts like this and creates a special firmware to cripple their cards so open drivers can't enable the whole GPU.
NVIDIA revised hardware to be able to lock them down further while AMD changed hardware to unlock it.
@bayindirh I think you misunderstood @bugaevc's comment. They're stating from the perspective of a user who's negatively impacted by the situation, where they have no choice but to use the inferior option because their hardware doesn't work with the superior option.
@Jage this one has an on screen keyboard interface if you don't have access to a hardware keyboard, for starters. It also has the ability for you to remap hardware modifiers to other modifiers, I.E. remap right alt to insert. It also lets you change your TTS settings, which I'm not sure if Narwall did or not it's been forever. You can save machine profiles. Talkback accessibility actions are fully supported. More that I'm forgetting
@Jage it's basically the same as my iOS NVDARC app, minus a few things that Talkback/Android doesn't support or that I haven't figured out how to do yet.
@Aryan I'm annoyed. Because while this does work, it's never going to be as smoothe as iOS. Talkback just doesn't have the same level of integration that VO does for certain things.
@Aryan accessibility scroll gestures and Magic Tap. The iOS app has it so that you can perform page scrolling gestures and send different keys that you can configure. I spent about 2 hours trying different things to make this work with Talkback and came up with nothing.
i will look into these and let you know if i find anything, but it would've been better if i myself had used features like this, it would have let me get better context.
wow, this is so awesome, might fire up the S22 just to install this on it and check it out for sure. Super great work on creating this, this is going to liberate me so much from my desktop when traveling.
@Dennislong82 I don't have a page or anything available for it yet, as it's in early stages. Suffice it to say that NVDARC is a control app for NVDA Remote on Android and iOS.
I'm not going to start because, if I do, I will just go on and on and it'll get boring. I'm just going to say two things as shortly as I can. 1. I've been bugging people to update Narwhal, including one guy who has been good enough to put up with me here. The fact that I no longer have to do this and annoy people because all the work is done is beyond wonderful. 2. It works. I mean of course it does, you made it, but it does work. I'm sure I'll find issues and report them later. Note that I am using it on a very old phone, the Smartvision 3 running Android 11. It does work on that phone.
I've put this on two devices, as I said, a smartvision 3 running Android 11 and a Pixel running Lineage (Android 15). As for the SV, the speech and touch stuff seems to be unbreakable. Say all works with eloquence having run through a few book chapters. There are no pauses. Basically, I just can't make speech stop or command stop sending properly from the screen/the arrows. What doesn't work is the accessibility service. First, it didn't tell me about the service, I was hoping it would check whether it was enabled and, if not, say "your NVDARC service isn't available, sending hardware keyboard commands will not work, tap here to go enable it. Once you've enabled it, hit f11 in the application to forward keystrokes". I didn't need that myself only because you mentioned the accessibility service in passing. Anyhow, when I went and enabled it in accessibility settings, it said it was on. However, hitting f11 on the USB keyboard got nothing. I am still able to navigate the device, and still unable to send keystrokes directly to the remote machine. I can still tap/enter on any of the keys on the screen, and get those keys sent, but sending directly from the keyboard doesn't work. I may say that I have turned off Narwhal, Kapsys' own thing, and every other accessibility service except talkback. Is there a way to log what is going on or anything I can do to troubleshoot?
@techsinger How interesting. I might have to do some more testing here on my end for that, because others are saying they're having issues. Does this not work on one or both of your devices?
The Lineage machine is having a few more issues though I'm pleased to say that the service is working, at least it's forwarding keystrokes. First, though the service is working, TB is still capturing alt+everything. Alt+enter, for example, gets sent to the computer to grab properties, which is great, but it also taps whatever I'm on in the interface. Both TB and NVDARC seem to be receiving the keystrokes. Obviously, with most keystrokes, this doesn't matter, but when the key is a TB command, it does. Again, say all stops after a single sentence with Vocalizer and Dectalk. I am not able to use Eloquence on this thing at the moment, but hope to at some point. With both Vocalizer and DT, the response when typing is very slow indeed. I'm comparing it to the iOS responsiveness, which is quite good, in my respectful view. It's as if I'm sending sound over Sonobus/Teamtalk/Soundwire over the same network. Responsiveness on the SV3 is significantly better. If I may ask, what are you using yourself as a device? Also, do you think, from your experience designing it, that lower end but modern devices are going to help in terms of responsiveness? Again, thanks for all your work. These are teething troubles, but the thing has to have teeth to get teething troubles, and this thing definitely has teeth.
Been reviewing Spanish with duolingo. Of course they now have an AI conversationalist that you call on the phone. I'm ahead in my knowledge for lots of things, but I'm getting to a point in lessons where I need to follow there ordering. In today's call with Lilly, the stoner girl that knows how to speak Spanish, I threw some complex words and ideas at her to see if she would keep me at the level of my lessons. Turns out she sounds like a stoner, but when she asked me how I was and then I said I was tired. Somehow we got onto the topic of what I like to do before bed and I told her I liked reading. Then we went all Spanish crazy and talked about scifi and fantasy books we liked. Impressive for those that need to practice Spanish conversation.
@jakobrosin They are better than they used to be. It's hard to do timed challenges because it takes forever to select words that are out of place. You select the word, hold your finger on the screen for a bit and continue. You still have to kind of figure out if a word is selected or not. For the most part though, xax
@jakobrosin i've done courses / material in Spanish, I've taken lots of Spanish in school. I also did a good bit in Esperanto because why not, and I had a neighbor who spoke Swahili so I tried that as well. Might try Chinese or something and use my braille display to learn braille in Chinese. Simplified Chinese is phonetic.
Importing all my old posts and whatnot now. Doing this only for the sake of preserving memories, as so much has changed since then. But at least some of what was true then is still true now.

> “It’s hard to imagine increases beyond 300,000 to 400,000 barrels a day in the next year, just given the degraded state of the infrastructure, especially the upgraders,” Daan Struyven, co-head of global commodities research at Goldman Sachs, said at the Goldman Sachs Energy, CleanTech and Utilities Conference.

You want the truth about this ask the investors who finance this shit and actually understand the risk. They aren't lying
> U.S. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum said on Tuesday that an increased flow of Venezuelan heavy oil to the U.S. Gulf would be "great news" for job security, future gasoline prices in the U.S. and for Venezuela.
You don't make gasoline from heavy sour crude, why can't we have journalists that do their goddamn jobs and call these people out on their lies
I am thinking of going to #FOSDEM. But the travel time is quite long 14-16h+. So I would like to combine it with some additional trip "nearby". Any recommendations what to do in winterly times?
My company is now taxed like an S-Corporation instead of a single member LLC to reduce my tax burden. Basically: I'm passing the tariff burden back to the gov't instead of customers.
I am now required by law to post a Worker's Comp certificate in a conspicuous place.
Stepped on a spider in the bathroom, disposed of it down the toilet and then had a sizeable dump on top before flushing. What a gloriously awful death that little chap has just had. Sorry.
This is the document, Trump does not want you to see.
In 1916, under President Woodrow Wilson, the United States signed the purchase of the Virgin Islands from Denmark, in a convention in which the United States recognised Denmark's right to the whole of Greenland.
Danish MP's of The Defence Committee will convene in the Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility at 18:00 to discuss the defence of Greenland.
it depends on what the legal understanding of "political and economic interests" means I guess. We live in a world where you can't assume this is decided.
That time when you're SSH'd into a Linux VPS and you want to do something like "cat /var/log/mail.log | grep blablabla" but end up just typing "cat /var/log/mail.log" then hitting Enter, and the absolutely massive infodump causes NVDA to freeze. Yeah, that. Happened to me a few hours ago.
My absolutely freeking favorite one right now is the one where the terminal does, something, and it causes NVDA to break in such a way where alt tab doesn't read, and the terminal window doesn't read, causing me to have wo restart NVDA. Can't count the amount of times on two hands that this has happened in the past 2 hours.
@Bri Yeah I decided to write my own after I discovered that pretty much all of the existing ones have some very nasty issues. I posted about it but Idk if you saw it: github.com/ethindp/prism. It doesn't have a README yet and bindings are still a big work in progress
The Platform-agnostic Reader Interface library for Speech and Messages: a new universal text-to-speech and screen reader abstraction library - ethindp/prism
@Bri Yep. I debated for like 2-3 hours whether I should expose pitch/rate/volume control because I wasn't sure if that was persistant or a temporary change. In the end I decided not to for now. And OneCore was a pain in the ass
@Bri Well, and Idk if all the invariants and such hold, which of course would be an API bug. But yeah, thanks for taking the time out of your day to tell me your thoughts! :)
Or perhaps the stupid and horrible memory leak that causes explorer to crash with a buffer underrun if mainstream games or other intense applications mess with UIA or keyboard hooking, or the fact that it now just dies sometimes for no reason and zombifies when you try TO RESTART IT, (COULDN'T TERMINATE EXISTING PROCESS)
@draeand That, along with the bug where, ya know, your terminal window will just randomly refuse to focus sometimes, and then you can be assured your terminal window will explode quite spectacularly after that
Wow, I never need to restart NVDA. I just get a focus loss every time I open a new terminal window, memory leaks (which aren't NVDA's fault), and occasionally I alt+tab back to the window and get error sounds any time I do anything. None of those require a restart though. Seems like along with being megaborked, it's differently borked for different people.
Are there tickets for your problems? Could you ping @NVAccess or provide more feedback to get them solved? I ask because I also don't have this kind of problems.
