Btw! Not everyone’s accessibility needs are the same! What’s accessible for a blind person might not be accessible for me, someone who’s sighted & definitely hard of hearing but hasn’t went to a doctor about it…….

The same applies for every disability! Ik this is well known in disability-centered spaces, but the fedi isn’t directly disability-centered so it felt relevant to make a PSA about.

Unfortunately the #OpenStreetMap wiki is very slow today. We are fighting an aggressive web scraper bot. 10,000 of IPs involved. Randomised User-Agent. Ignoring robots.txt #aibot #ddos

Update: Fixed. We've been able to mitigate the bot traffic. #fail2ban

My start-up's business model is taking one million euro from every billionaire, every year. If this is made illegal this whole industry will die.

Kunnen alle apps die ik nodig heb er op? (Ook van mijn banken en bijvoorbeeld MoneyBird en eventuele apps van de middelbare school waar de elfjarige straks heen gaat?

Tips en ervaringen zijn heel welkom, en dan dus specifiek van mensen die net als ik diep in het Apple ecosysteem ingebed zitten :/

Dus een belangrijk moment om te kiezen (komt er aan).

Ga ik overstappen en hoe complex is dat dan? Hoe zorg ik er dan bijvoorbeeld voor dat al die notities in een andere app komen en alsnog met m’n Mac gesynct worden?

Hoe krijg ik alle contactpersonen uit m’n Iphone in die Fairphone met e/OS zonder gek te worden (ik ben herstellende van post-covid)?

#fairphone #e_OS

Zijn er hier mensen die de stap hebben gezet van IPhone naar e/OS?

Ik werk al meer dan tien jaar op Mac en IPhone en alles is er op ingericht (privé, maar zeker ook m’n eigen bedrijf).

Notities die met elkaar syncen (als schrijver heel belangrijk), en alles zo gebackupt dat het met één klik op een ander apparaat kan worden opgestart).

Maar ik wil graag los van de grote Amerikaanse bedrijven en mijn zes jaar oude Iphone begint een beetje gammel te worden.

Maar ik ben gek en stel me aan omdat ik luchtreinigers gebruik...

Is this true fedi?

The open web

Apple’s App Store has become an embarrassment. It’s nearly impossible to find apps that do not expect you to subscribe even to use the “free” features: three day free trial and then you are subscribed. What do these apps do? Convert videos to GIFs. We’re not talking about the labor and creativity of a master programmer here. Pure exploitation.

Today's progress in Project Workshop Density: installed some overhead storage hooks for long things, so that they finally aren't in my way anymore; and installed an auto-retracting hose spool for my compressed air onto the ceiling.

Also worked on the plant tables a bit; cut and added all the ledges that the 'floor' planks will rest on. Assuming it's sufficiently dry tomorrow, I might assemble and install them outside tomorrow! Can't do that in the garage, because once fully assembled they won't fit through a doorway anymore.

#spoonieTown has a red light district, but it's mostly people basking under infrared lamps.

The WAPBackMachine works! There are lots of WAP sites in the waybackmachine. It seems that the WBM crawler actually followed links on WAP sites, despite them not being HTML, which means that there is a lot to find if you know where to look!

Today's workshop improvements! Reused an empty 3D printing filament spool as a spool for the long extension card in the garage, installed some hooks to hang my (non-electric) scooter on (finally, it's no longer in my way!), and finally added some nonslip tape to a working surface so that I can safely put stationary tools on it without them moving around and without having to bolt them down permanently.
