Don't defer QR reading the to cam app putting a small URL icon at the bottom.

Thanks: someone who had to delete three QR-reader apps from my mom's phone AND a "messages" app that wanted to become the default SMS-app and that plastered ads all over the phone.

I'm amazed the QR-reader situation on #Android is still such a shit show.

Include a QR-reader app by default on the phone you publish, give it a QR app icon and put it on the main screen.

Anything else will not work for older people.

Wanneer @barbarakathmann.bsky.social als vriendin in de podcast?

Anders ga ik FvD stemmen hoor!

Pretending the rise of the far right and the focus on issues such as immigration or trans people comes from the "legitimate concerns" of "the people" is not just factually wrong, it's a deeply political point

Refusing to see this as primarily top down processes is to protect the status quo

#Vim 9.2 is out with many improvements www.vim.org/vim-9.2-rele...

It's great to see that the project is alive and well and that they finally tweaked some default settings to be better aligned with the times.

Perhaps in Vim 10 there will also be built-in support for TreeSitter and LSP? 😁

Flikker toch op. Het taboe op extreemrechts, op NAZI’S, verdween al met de verkiezing van Wilders tot politicus, debater, gouden god van het jaar, met het gesop bij Baudet en het weglachen van de genocidefantasieën en vrouwenhaat van GeenStijl. For starters.

Ja, dat mensen met expertise meer dan gemiddeld links-progressief zijn en accepterend zijn tegenover minderheden betekent dat je onderzoekers moet aannemen die dat niet zijn en dat de cultuur op de campus anders moet. Degene die mij in elkaar wil slaan en me ziek vindt moet zich wel thuis voelen.

It’s so funny to think about the fact that there’s people out there deferring every life decision to this

The ‘world order’ didn’t collapse bc Russia invaded Ukraine. It collapsed because the free world chose not to stop them.
By refusing to use our wealth & power to defend even a European democracy, we showed dictators everywhere that aggression pays.
That was the death blow. We did this to ourselves.

it's hard to process this level of cruelty to children

get the kid in the brown hoodie a scholarship

if you're an older person who finds words like mogg and maxxing annoying, just starting using them. people over the age of 30 have the superpower to end trends by simply adopting them

"The day of accountability will come": Rep. Delia Ramirez on abolishing and prosecuting DHS The Handbasket spoke with the congresswoman who called out ICE long before it was popular.

🔥 “To me, when we're talking about what justice looks like, it's ultimately getting to a place where every single fascist agent and the leaders that directed them to do what they did are held accountable to the highest degree of the law. And that means prosecution.”

Blundering Husband Asks Claude AI to "Organize" Wife's PC, Accidentally Erases Her Life's Work All the husband wanted to do was be helpful, and so did the Claude AI. Yet, both ended up screwing up majorly.

There are some shows I have given up on because of the constant constant re-stating of exposition. Exposition is a thing that is definitely needed in normal amounts. The amounts being demanded right now by executives at some streamers is excessive & annoying & has killed my interest in some shows

Oh, yes, very quietly. They’re not talking about it, neither in the media nor in the parliament. More, there are no videos.
It’s so great you’re reporting on this. You’re doing a great service to humanity. I’m certain that governments around the world, especially many Western ones, will take action.

Gezichtsherkenning is feitelijk gewoon verboden onder de AVG en de AI Act, maar we zijn al op het punt gekomen dat producten die binnenkort AI-gezichtsherkenningstechnologie moeten hebben doodleuk gemarket worden.

Hoe je red je de wereld zonder jezelf te verliezen? We gaan de wereld een stukje mooier maken of misschien een stukje minder lelijk. Dit doen we met oud-diplomaat en mensenrechten-expert Nori Spauwen.

In Spraakmakers was @norispauwen.bsky.social over activisme en zorg om de wereld. Goed verhaal vond ik, vooral voor de velen die bezorgd zijn maar niet weten wat te doen om verschil te maken. We zijn geneigd anderen te zien als óf activisten óf mensen die “slaapwandelend door de shitshow gaan”. 1/3

Why did Israel jail journalist who witnessed Shireen Abu-Akleh’s killing? Palestinian Ali al-Samoudi was with Al Jazeera's Abu Akleh when she was shot dead by an Israeli sniper in 2022.

Why did genocidal Israel headshot a US journalist, try & fail to pin it on Palestinians, arrest a local journalist that witnessed the murder but couldn't pin anything on him, and then threw him in a concentration camp with no trial or crime, just because they can?

Ooit - in 2006 - bedachten @jburkunk.bsky.social en ik NUjij.nl. Dat was toen iedereen het nog had over de Wisdom of the Crowd. Mooie tijd. Nu is er een prachtige ode, inclusief de oude vormgeving. Maar helemaal 2026: het zijn niet mensen maar bots die over het nieuws discussieren. nujai.nl

Gevangen in Palestina | NPO Start Journalist Nadia Moussaid reist naar de bezette Palestijnse gebieden. Na Getuigen van Gaza en Het geweten van Israël richt zij zich op de dagelijkse realiteit van Palestijnen die leven onder de Israël...

Schrijnende documentaire van Nadia Moussaid laat vlijmscherp zien hoe Palestijnen worden onderdrukt: een openluchtgevangenis, voortdurende blootstelling aan extreem geweld en gedwongen verdrijving.

De opstelling van Nederland is onverteerbaar. Erken Palestina en stel maximale sancties in. Nu.
