Hackers' Pub is a place for software engineers to share their knowledge and experience with each other. It's also an ActivityPub-enabled social network, so you can follow your favorite hackers in the fediverse and get their latest posts in your feed.
I blogged, a little less coherent than I hoped, but I hope still understandable :-D https://yatil.net/blog/so-you-screwed-up-your-eaa-compliance-what-now

I got interesting news from the fedora accessibility room today! this concerns blind and visually impaired #linux users exclusively, however:
For a bit of time, specifically pipewire >=1.4, one can start pipewire as root. That includes the regular daemon and the alsa layer, because jack emulation is a library loaded inside programs. Anyway, more recently than that, pipewire-pulse got the ability to be launched via root, as a system service:

I'm not sure if ubuntu can use any of this yet, I suppose not, but most other distros which aren't debian based should be able to do so, for example arch, gentoo, probably nix and fedora starting with 42. This means that your system can start talking much, much sooner without the use of scripts, as long as you enable the system services instead of the user ones, or well, apparently the user units don't conflict, weird as that might sound. Either way, the same security is achieved, because who cares if root apps can listen to your microphone, the battle is lost if those apps are already root anyway!
In particular, this means that one can start espeakup with the system and it'll speak as soon as possible. Not in the initramfs, not at the enter decryption key prompt, but that's still huge progress in case your system crashes and so on.
What do y'all think, does this change anything, or it's still the same for you because you use scripts anyway, or because your systems rarely crash in such a way where that'd be required?
I'd scream if I had any energy left...
At the weekend, a group of trans women protested topless at the Scottish Parliament about the recent Supreme Court ruling that the Equality Act defines women as "biological women". The police couldn't arrest them, because to arrest them for showing their breasts would be to define them as women (it's not illegal for men to be topless). And, of course, the right-wing press that reported on it censored their breasts, thereby making their point for them.

Tired from conferences but super happy, I needed a manual activity so here we go, linocut and print to make cute little cards for

This felt too valuable not to share. Braille-labeled maps of washrooms to help people find and use facilities in the washroom. Everyone deserves to get in, do their business, wash their hands, and get out in peace and safety.
This seems valuable for all public spaces.
So @amzd just installed some shitty Android game called Wonder Merge on my Pocket through Aurora Store thru 
@fdroidorgF-Droid thru Waydroid lol

Only late in the development cycle did NASA realize they could use giant cats to transport the shuttle instead of a 747
today I learned you can do stuff like this in python
tuple(i for i in range(10))
sum(i for i in range(10))
the function gets a generator passed into it
EDIT: the thing I didn't know about was generator comprehensions without brackets, not that you can pass generators into things
I'm pretty sure the answer is "no" but is there any way to proxy SMTP to different backend servers depending on recipient domain without terminating TLS on the proxy? Is SNI a thing that's commonly implemented for SMTP?

Massive demonstration for Gaza and against genocide today in Brussels.
75.000 participants according to the police, and 110.000 according to organisers.
Inspired by the Dutch sister demo, “Draw a Red Line for Gaza” was the largest demonstration in Belgium for years.

Whoa: Weston, the reference compositor for #Wayland, supports multiple physical independent mice at the same time! 😀
"New mouse, who dis?"

Hot Take: Guys who bitch about women with "vocal fry" are just scraping around for a way to bash on women in a sorta socially acceptable manner.
there's a lot I can iterate on here. more varied lighting. doorways, desks, chairs, and other furniture. stuff hanging on the walls.
walls should be either full height, 3/4 or half height, or not there at all. maybe full walls can have door ways.
light sources do light up the room but are invisible. make some actual light objects.
Some upgrades.

Slightly alarmed by how often I tell fellow US Americans that I'm moving to Uruguay, and they respond with "Oh! Where is that?"

This was definitely one of the most energetically received talks I've ever given
I talk about the technical and political challenges we're facing, why the current fediverse is not enough, but why there's hope, and why joy is essential to our success
welll that was unexpected
oh shit! I tried to run a diff but nothing happened!
