Just donated to @fdroidorg because the FOSS ecosystem is a beautiful thing!
Learned a lot when I published Coppelia, my Jellyfin music client, and the #fdroid review team and community was extraordinary!!

I believe together we can have massive effect in getting people to REALLY SEE what is going on and this country, and getting mad as hell about it … so We, The People, can do something about it.

Thesis: The surge in popularity of TUIs is not because there's been a sudden interest in retro computing. They're popular because they're an easy way to get a cross platform UI in an app experience.

Antithesis: There are other - and better - ways to achieve this goal. A good cross-platform GUI toolkit gives you the same thing, while retaining the ability to do things like, say, display an *image* or a *line chart*.

A good cross-platform GUI toolkit can even output a TUI if you need that to access your app's UI over SSH.

Like, say, Toga: https://toga.beeware.org

ICYMI, the US Postal Service proposed a rule allowing it to refuse mail ballots in states that don’t provide voter rolls to the federal government. This could impact millions of Democratic voters and could disrupt the 2026 general election. You have less than a week to comment via mail or email.

@obshq hey guys! Trying to find someone to contact about a specific package on OpenSuse OBS (this one https://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=graphics:darktable&package=darktable). Will be grateful for any pointers!

#NowPlaying

Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, Live at The Ritz 1981

Considering the source, this is a pretty great version. I’ve had this on shitty bootleg cassette for forever.

The energy of the band is GREAT! Joan fucking RULES. It’s funny though to hear her voice so young and girlish. Her modern recordings are in a much lower register.

Damn this is such a great concert. Shout out to WNEW, NY.

Interesting… By wiping away my darktablerc and trying to set settings one by one I figured that it tends to segfault if I disable the splash screen. And it looks like it segfaults due to some race condition.

#Fedihelp Is anyone here in contact with #LadyGaga? My 14yo grandson who I love dearly is lying in hospital on life support. His mum, my daughter, is reading aloud for him the David Attenborough book he was planning to get. His favourite artist is Lady Gaga and my daughter is trying to contact her, to ask if she might send our boy a message to be read to him. It would mean a lot. I know this is a long shot, but can anyone put me in touch?

I only ask because as I'm thinking about producing video essays and thinking of which platform to post, I can't help but think how cool it would be if I could just post them here.

I like it here. Way more than any other platform.

Should Mastodon embrace video as a medium? (More than now, obviously). I'm afraid to ask this lol. Is it a can of worms?

Omg my nephew is into Wu-tang now and invited me to a concert 😭😭

On one hand, it feels so good to bond over something that I loved as a kid. On the other, I know he likes Wu-tang like how I liked The Beatles, which is to say vaguely ironic because it's considered old people music. So, rude. lol

Listening to nepo babies defend themselves is so funny. Like dude, most people work hard. Talent is as common as dirt. It's opportunity. That's the whole thing.

Opportunity is finite and distributed unequally. In many ways it is a zero sum game. The space you occupy took opportunity from someone else who is by all odds more talented and hard working than you.

Welp… My new #darktable 5.6 experience is not off to a good start. After I switched OpenCL to the recommended RustiCL driver, the app started segfaulting on me on startup. Suprisingly, disabling opencl via the command line option doesn't fix the problem.

"High-functioning" ADHD looks capable on the outside — but the internal cost is invisible.
What others see: reliable, driven, calm, organised.
What's actually there: self-doubt, chronic exhaustion, perfectionism rooted in fear, burnout, emotional overload.
"High-functioning" describes output — not capacity.
For many, it means high masking: suppressing struggles and pushing through at the expense of wellbeing.
Support starts with being understood — not performing better.

This should surprise nobody, but was worth measuring.

Damn I'm kinda floored by how well these breathing exercises have worked for me. I felt one coming on and immediately started taking deep breaths. Then I took a few hits of this. Within minutes it was gone.

I still feel that lingering feeling that comes with a cluster headache; it's hard to describe. But it's not painful. Honestly so grateful this works. I don't know how I'd make it.
