Not sure how many of you use ChatGTP, but you might want to scale back.

"The latest model of ChatGPT has begun to cite Elon Musk’s Grokipedia as a source on a wide range of queries, including on Iranian conglomerates and Holocaust deniers, raising concerns about misinformation on the platform.

In tests done by the Guardian, GPT-5.2 cited Grokipedia nine times in response to more than a dozen different questions."

The only relevant feature for any instant messaging app (or social app, for that matter) is: Are my friends using it? People will gladly overlook minor inconsistencies or missing features as long as they can communicate with their friends. We shouldn’t recommend #Signal as a stepping stone before Jabber/XMPP becomes "good enough," if goodness is defined by the number of people using it.

@kris @oceane i was an xmpp user 20 years ago.But the fall wasnt only due to defederation. It was also cause it wasnt working properly when u had several devices connected simultaneously(depending on priority &connectivity messages were arriving to one device or the other).There was a fix(some server storage) but not all servers implemented it.With the encryption most are using omemo but there is still no encryption and pgp based...I think its easier to attract people to signal&matrix

The State of Mobile XMPP in 2016

XMPP is not suited for mobile devices. That’s a myth that has been around for ages. It is mostly spread by people who want to sell you their own proprietary instant messaging solution.

Nunca me gustó llevar gafas. Y menos las gafas oscuras que me identifican como ciego ante toda la sociedad. Porque claro, si eres ciego tienes que llevar gafas oscuras, porque si no llevas gafas oscuras junto a tu bastón blanco no eres ciego, ya sabéis. Pero bueno, al final he caído, y este martes completo el atuendo de ciego. Espero sentirme cómodo y que merezca la pena. Se supone que estas gafas vienen a mejorarme la vida.

Aby se pickles vždy povedlo:
– Používejte vždy čerstvou a neponičenou zeleninu.
– Největší podíl dejte vždy šťavnaté zeleniny (mladé zelí, čínské zelí, mrkev, cuketa, daikon, řepa, cibule, kedlubna, přidejte jablíčko aj.), abyste měli dostatek tekutiny. V menším množství můžete přidat i sušší zeleninu (např. červené zelí, celer, pórek, jarní cibulka aj.).
– Zelí a cibuli krájejte najemno, šťavnaté tvrdší druhy (mrkev, kedlubna, daikon, cuketa aj.) strouhejte nahrubo. Tím získáte dostatek tekutiny.
– Velmi dobře zeleninu promačkejte (3–5 minut), aby pustila maximum tekutiny.
– Dodržujte množství soli: na 1 kg zeleniny = 1 velká lžička soli (cca 15–20 g).
– Dodržujte důkladnou hygienu (sklenice, těžítko i ruce si umyjte – nástroje horkou vodou; do pickles vždy sahejte čistýma rukama/příborem).
– Udržujte zeleninu vždy pod hladinou (pomocí těžítka).
– V horkých letních dnech přemístěte kvasící pickles do chladnější místnosti (sklep, spíž, komora) a častěji kontrolujte, jestli už je hotové. Aha tak cibule asi nevadí, už nevím proč jí tam nedáváme.

Skutečně je, pečuje o střeva a trávení obecně a tím zvyšuje imunitu.

V asii se ta zkvašená šťáva používá i v kosmetice, chrání kožní mikrobiom, takže se používá na pleť, ale i na intimní hygienu dam.

Mimochodem šťáva z kyselého zelí se používala kosmeticky i u nás, jen jsme to zapomněli a asi nikdo nechce vonět jako kyselé zelí. Takže nakupujeme séra ve kterých je výtažek z těchto produktů, jen o tom málokdo ví.

The Jamulus devs are trying to make the server list accessible. I am not sure about the latest workflow proposed in the latest comment. If you have thoughts, please chime in.
IMHO, the best solution is to make it behave like the list view in the Finder, where you can navigate across columns and also expand and collapse folders. That said, they are having hard time make it work.

@Scott QT accessibility is a mess, especially on Mac. There was a brief moment when they actually got the tree/table widgets speaking well, only to break it in a later QT release. Sadly you're probably not going to be able to make it so that the VoiceOver cursor can navigate inside it until QT fixes it. In TeamTalk the way they solved this is having a checkbox in the preferences to speak the selected item in lists using text to speech, and then you just treat it more like a windows app by tabbing and using the arrow keys instead of the VO cursor. QT now also includes an accessibility announcement API that speaks through screen readers directly if one is running, so what they could do is label each item with the text of all cells, and if the program is running on Mac, use the announcement API to speak it when the focus moves in the tree which is not needed on Windows because screen readers will pick it up fine there. And you will want to label the items with the text from all cells and not just the first one so that the screen reader will automatically read all columns and not just the first one. TeamTalk does this as well, IE for the files section which is a finder/explorer like view.

@pitermach @Scott This is amazing! I gave gemini-cli the documentation for QAccessibleAnnouncementEvent as well as access to QTTeamTalk codebase. Then I asked it to make the server list in Jamulus accessible in a similar way to QTTeamTalk by passing all the relevant information to the screen reader to announce when a server or user is selected. It got to work and finished in a couple of minutes. It works perfectly! A few devs attempted to make this accessible for a few years. lol

"What sparked Carney’s intervention was not Sudan, Venezuela or Gaza. It was the US threat to Canada and Greenland.

A western prime minister took umbrage only when the US, under President Donald Trump, threatened to treat the prosperous West in the same way it has long treated the Global South.

Let’s return now to Israel’s recent invasion of Unrwa’s headquarters in occupied East Jerusalem: a gross breach of international law and a direct attack on the United Nations.

Article 6 of the UN charter establishes that any state that persistently violates its principles can be expelled from the UN. The attack on Unrwa is part of a pattern of Israel’s criminal hostility towards the UN, including its refusal to respect orders from the International Court of Justice on Gaza, its slaughter of UN aid workers and its regular attacks on UN positions in southern Lebanon.

The case for expelling - or at the very least suspending - Israel from the UN is overwhelming. Yet neither Carney’s Canada nor Starmer’s Britain, nor any other western power, has so much as suggested the idea.

In his Davos speech, Carney set out Canada’s approach as follows: “We aim to be principled and pragmatic. Principled in our commitment to fundamental values: sovereignty and territorial integrity, the prohibition of the use of force except when consistent with the UN Charter, respect for human rights. Pragmatic in recognising that progress is often incremental, that interests diverge, that not every partner shares our values.”

This is all well and good. But on the evidence so far, Carney is prepared to be principled when it comes to western countries like Canada and Denmark, and pragmatic when it comes to Palestine and Venezuela.

This is a fundamentally racist equation."

Ich muss sagen, ich bin tief verstört davon, dass hier Videos von einem Mord angeschaut oder geteilt werden. Teilweise sogar ohne CW. Ganz ehrlich, justiert mal euren Kompass. Dass die USA Menschenrechte mit Füßen treten ist kein Grund sowas zu verbreiten. Wenn ich hier lese (gestern), dass es jemand noch nicht geschafft hat, das zu sehen, dann kommt hier doch ein Druck auf, der impliziert: Wenn du es dir nicht detailliert anschaust, dann schaust du weg.

Wir müssen alle handlungsfähig bleiben.

Episode 33 is out! 🫡 We are diving into the story of Lakshmi Sahgal and the Rani of the Jhansi Regiment, the first all-female combat unit in modern Indian history, formed in Singapore during World War II.

ℹ️ Most members were teenage Tamil girls from plantation communities who left estate life to train as soldiers in the Indian National Army and were later sent to the Burma front.

No longer getting any attention from his Greenland invasion fantasies, Trump now threatens 100 percent tariffs on all Canadian goods, because Mark Carney is negotiating a trade deal with China, like every other country on the planet does regularly, including the US.

I hope we will reach a point where the free world agrees, that a Trump tariff attack on one nation is a Trump tariff attack on all. Let him feel the consequences of his isolationist, America first agenda.
