Arnaud Saint-Martin :
Alerte ! Du PS au RN en passant par les macronistes : ils ont voté pour la suppression de l’article 16 bis du PJL cyber sécurité. Cet article permettait de protéger les conversations par messageries cryptées des Français. C’est un immense recul pour nos libertés numériques.
@LeNouvelEssai Salut, tu pourrais ajouter un texte alternatif s'il te plaît ? Histoire que je puisse partager.
@ZenHeathen I like that!
@Mrfunkedude Put another way, as long as you're moving forward--however slowly--you're not moving backward.
@apps my ancient phone doesn't work well with UnifiedPush. I'll stay as long as I can with GMS version (via Obtainium)
@essjotbe
I still attach the Google Play version as an APK file to each release on Codeberg, so if you use Obtainium, it will keep working.
So, I know that I won't actually win anyone over to writing alt text by shaming them directly, but I am utterly flabbergasted how many so called "radical" accounts posting political art either don't bother with alt text at all or are really fucking bad at it.
Progressive needs to be inclusive. That means accessibility too. How can we support each other if we don't include each other?
"HughWire" 0.4.9 is out, with enhanced modularity, reduced footprint, ready for future evolutions.

Fediverse
I’m new to the Fediverse, and so far I’m loving it
It reminds me a little of the old internet. I like how relatively small it feels, and that people post content for the sake of the content, not to promote themselves. I haven’t found my usual corners yet, the ones I used to hang out in on older platforms, but I figure that’s just a matter of time. I’m not super nostalgic for the old internet or anything, but it’s nice to find at least a hint of something human-centered somewhere.
I hope it doesn’t fall apart and that it keeps growing.
I was skeptical when I switched to Linux, but then I ditched Windows on my dual boot for good. It was a hugely positive experience, and it really felt like freedom. I’m hoping this will be the same.
And don’t be mad at me if I act totally clueless here sometimes 'cause all that is new to me.
"...GhostShares 2: Grok Apps Exposed xAI’s Business Secrets and People’s Private Data
We found more than 35,000 apps built with Grok that anyone with the link could open. Among them were SpaceXSI's own sales territory map, an X ad proposal to a U.S. federal agency marked confidential, an ICU patient's lab results, a hospital group's staff list and a timesheet that hands out its employees' passwords...."
If you want to truly appreciate macOS, try using Linux on a server.
In the process of upgrading, something in PostgreSQL triggered a dependency on Firefox, which then triggered a dependency on a Gnome desktop environment and who knows what else. And now it’s all downloading at 500 Kbps over a 10 Gbps network.
Being able to update software quickly and efficiently is a feature.
@chockenberry Why does your Linux server have a UI and Firefox? 🤔

I am ridiculously excited that the VIP Days for the new MicroCenter starts tomorrow. I plan to pilgrimage the 45 minutes to north Austin to get my free flash drive and coffee mugs. Any other fedi-nerds doing the same?

Permacomputing NYC meets tonight at Ridgewood Commons in Queens at 6pm.
https://nyc.permacomputing.net/
> This presentation will overview one of the oldest computer art subcultures. The demoscene is composed of musicians, visual artists, and coders pushing the bounds of what's thought possible on a computer through non-interactive audiovisual productions ("demos"). This presentation will cover the scene and its overlap in permacomputing topics like sizecoding, retrocomputing, cracking, and creative coding. Presenter: Bryce Wilson.
@neil it really isnt. The "real world" cant be (nor will it be on my watch) a corporate astroturfed, censored, surveilled, manipulated, classist, unaccountable something something "public square". Nope. Public square and real activities are definitely not on the computer, but the Personal Computer is still welcomed to stay in its fucking lane.
Brought to you by a 35+ year net/sysadmin who is NOT going to let this slip.

Bravo! That's one of the best one sentence parodies that I have read in ages. Excellent work :)
Please contact your politicians and say "We want blood" and let's see what happens.
@rosie_108@toot.wales Real speak though - that is amazing! Even @uoou@mstdn.social might concede you have skill. And he has dropped out of art school twice!
@hamishtpb @uoou aww shucks thank you!!
