Organizational update: FediForum, this time, is organized entirely by @j12tJohannes Ernst . The previous co-organizer is no longer involved.

Johannes' previous announcement said "transitioning out" because there were a lot of accounts to transfer and settings to change and responsibilities to be moved so the transition could not be immediate. However, we have been scrambling and believe it is now complete.

(It is possible we missed something. If so, please point this out, gently if possible :-))

Hey folks. I don't do these often, but: Mediazona, one of Russia's last, and best, truly independent media, is on the verge of running out of money. They've done some incredible work documenting, and in many cases fighting, the repressions, the government censorship and the horrors of the war. Please throw them a few bucks: https://donate.zona.media

Some personal news: this month marks 10 years since I first started developing Delta!

So much has changed since then — when Delta launched it didn’t even support DS! — but I couldn’t be more thankful to still be working on it after all this time 💜

So please enjoy this “10-year anniversary” update, and here’s to another decade of Delta 🥳

아기 분유 먹이고 재우고 나도 자려고 침대에 앉아서 팬피로 타임라인 보고 있는데 갑자기 오리 램프가 혼자 켜졌다. 전원 스위치는 꺼짐으로 되어 있는데 이거 스위치를 조작해봐도 꺼지지도 않는다. 뭐야 이거 무서워⋯

어두운 방 안, 작은 나무 선반 위에 오리 모양의 무드등이 빛나고 있습니다. 무드등은 흰색의 둥근 몸체에 노란 주둥이와 발을 가지고 있으며, 두 개의 긴 다리가 아래로 늘어져 있습니다. 선반 위에는 사각형의 종이 상자, 책, 투명한 플라스틱 공구 상자, 그리고 파란색 종이 등(燈) 등이 놓여 있습니다. 오리 무드등 아래에는 사자 그림이 그려진 작은 천이 깔려 있습니다. 방 안은 전체적으로 어둡지만, 무드등에서 나오는 부드러운 빛이 주변을 은은하게 밝히고 있습니다.

In the 14th century, someone who didn't have a highlighter handy thought to use octopus tentacles to mark the most important parts. I love it so much

There's a new product that has been gaining some buzz in the blind community, a Windows app called Guide that uses AI to perform tasks on your computer. It's pitched as a way to get around web accessibility problems in particular. I won't link to the thing itself, because I don't want to give it that validation, but I'll link to a previous discussion thread about it: fed.interfree.ca/notes/a5wf4ys

I've spent some time taking this app apart. The level of shoddy work here is deeply disgusting. 1/?

Nachdem ein paar Mal die Frage aufkam, wie ich mit vorbereite, will ich in aller Kürze mal mein Setup und mein Vorgehen darstellen. Das meiste ist sicher schon bekannt.
Bisher hatte ich es so gemacht, dass ich in eine Notiz alles kopiert habe und dann intern verlinkt habe. In der rechten Seitenleiste hatte ich dann die Gliederungsansicht offen, so dass ich "schnell" nach dem betreffenden Abschnitt suchen konnte. Das war Murks.
Daher musste ein neuer Ablauf her...

Before the awful festivities of tomorrow's holiday, I wanted to take a moment to reflect, as it will mark 17 years of for me, personally.

It's been a tough road, and 45/47 definitely has made the past decade rough as all hell. But I keep showing up, one day at a time.

My health has declined since the first COVID infection in 2022, but even with these symptoms, it's a world of difference being sober. My liver and kidneys aren't constantly filtering poison from my body, and after 17 years of time off, maybe they're doing pretty great. Take a look at the before and after photos below...70 extra lbs is a lot to carry!

If you are questioning whether you need to stop drinking, or picking up that drug of choice: Don't lie to yourself. It's incredibly easy to lie to yourself, very difficult and admirable to reject lying to yourself in this moment.

If I can do this, you can do this. Stay strong. Stay alive.

Here's to tomorrow's challenges, which I will face like I did today's: With effort, but also resolve

LA ATALAYA RECORTADA CONTRA EL CIELO: La familia (Capítulo 4, extracto)

Unos días después, a la vuelta del instituto, Bran se encontró con su madre en mitad del salón con la mirada perdida en la pared. Su mano izquierda sangraba profusamente; en la otra tenía un cuchillo de cocina. Bran la sentó en el sofá, corrió con el corazón galopando en el pecho hasta el botiquín del baño, cogió el yodo y unas vendas y volvió para curarla. Tenía un corte largo desde el codo hasta la muñeca. Le limpió la herida y la envolvió en la venda, que poco a poco se iba empapando de un rojo profundo. Le habló y le habló pero su madre estaba ausente: la persona detrás de aquellos ojos hundidos y amoratados parecía estar muy lejos. Deseó que Cristóbal estuviese allí, pero probablemente había ido a trabajar o a comprar. Aquellos días eran como un torbellino.

Y de repente su madre se incorporó, la miró y le dijo unas palabras que no entendió pero que ya nunca pudo olvidar:

—He conocido al Hombre de Cuerdas.

Bran le preguntó de qué estaba hablando; ella se quedó como en trance unos instantes con el labio superior tembloroso y después continuó:

—He estado estos días en la casa de Cincogargantas. En su Casa Infinita. Lo que me ha pedido está muy claro. Es mejor no ver.

Bran se sobresaltó: ¿dónde está Pedrín? Y a modo de respuesta escuchó el ruido de algo cayéndose al suelo al otro lado del pasillo.

Echó a correr hasta la habitación y Pedrín estaba allí, en su silla de ruedas, con la cabeza ladeada; una bandeja y un plato estaban desparramados por el suelo y un fuerte olor a orín y excrementos inundaba la estancia. Tenía los labios secos y pegados. El organismo de Pedrín, en continua degradación, se deshidrataba fácilmente; Bran le pellizcó en el brazo como le habían enseñado y comprobó que la piel no volvió a su estado normal. Buscó a toda prisa el bote de plástico, lo encontró caído detrás de una silla y le dio de beber. Él lo hizo muy poco a poco porque estaba casi inconsciente.

Bran sintió que estaba a punto de llorar cuando oyó abrirse la puerta de la calle. Cristóbal entró cargado de bolsas. Bran se lanzó hacia él y le explicó como pudo la parte que entendía de todo lo ocurrido. Él la escuchó, tratando de calmarla. Le dio un beso en la frente y le dijo que no se preocupara, que él se encargaría de todo.

Aquella noche, nada más dormirse, Bran tuvo un sueño espantoso: un ser enorme y ensangrentado, con los dedos largos como gusanos serpenteando hasta el suelo, se arrastraba hacia ella cargando con el mismo cuchillo que había visto en la mano de su madre. Le decía con voz cavernosa que era el Hombre de Cuerdas; por alguna razón, ella ya lo sabía antes de que abriese su boca llena de dientes diminutos. La pesadilla duró apenas un instante. Se despertó empapada en sudor. Miró el reloj digital de su mesilla: 02:13.

Le costó conciliar el sueño; solo lo consiguió a base de repetirse una y otra vez como un mantra que todo había pasado. Todo ha pasado. Todo ha pasado.

Pero lo peor estaba aún por llegar.
