📰 Brasil e big techs: do servidor à servidão

É a lógica do “aluguel perpétuo”. País investe bilhões para armazenar dados públicos em corporações estrangeiras. Em uma cadeia opaca, intermediários invisíveis impedem auditorias e blindam big techs. Setor educacional é um dos mais capturados.

[...] A situação é ainda mais grave quando olhamos para o setor educacional. Universidades públicas, que poderiam ser polos de inovação em tecnologias abertas e autônomas, estão cada vez mais capturadas por pacotes corporativos fechados. O uso de suites educacionais da Google, a contratação de servidores Microsoft e a migração para nuvens proprietárias estão destruindo a possibilidade de formação crítica e soberana em tecnologia. Em vez de formar desenvolvedores, formamos consumidores. Em vez de ensinar código, ensinamos login. Em vez de liberdade, cultivamos dependência. [...]

> Psalms 10:12-16 📖

Arise, Yahweh! God, lift up your hand!
Don’t forget the helpless.

Why does the wicked person condemn God, and say in his heart, “God won’t call me into account?”

But you do see trouble and grief.
You consider it to take it into your hand.
You help the victim and the fatherless.

Break the arm of the wicked.

As for the evil man, seek out his wickedness until you find none.

Yahweh is King forever and ever!

The nations will perish out of his land.

I just learned that argv being const is not standard, because according to the spec it's supposed to be modifiable?

Why you'd modify your program arguments at runtime I have no idea, but hey, if that's the way it is, then that's the way it is.

With this extra context, what's now baffling to me is why I've had it as const char*[] for 16 months (hell, probably even longer than that. If I looked at Acronia's code, I bet it's const there too), and GCC has never once complained.

Bookface Custom Add-On

Thought I'd do a separate post about the new add-on I made for customizing my Bookface scheme for Friendica's "Frio" theme. Once a server admin has installed and activated it for users it would appear under Main Menu > Settings > Addons > Bookface Customizations:

Booface Custom addon settings


The original intention of using CSS variables was to allow easy localization of the pseudo-element text labels to other languages, and let you customize more than just the "accent color" for the theme.

Only the entries you change are included in the override stylesheet added to the site. If you leave an entry blank it will not be included.

There is no validation for what you enter in the text fields to check that it is in correct format or is usable. For colors any valid CSS color declaration should work (color names, hex codes, rgb, rgba, color-mix work but gradients and images do not. You should be able to enter any Unicode text in the label variables, just be careful to escape single quotes/apostrophes with a backslash.

There is nothing to prevent you from making color combinations that will render an unusable interface. There is also nothing to prevent you from making a really, really ugly user interface, but you're the only one who will have to look at it.

This add-on's color options do not work well with "Bookface Auto" since it will automatically pick Light Mode or Dark Mode based on the device settings. It's really hard to find color combos that will work equally well in both modes. But, again, there's nothing to stop you from trying. It doesn't detect which of the Bookface schemes you've enabled.

Lastly, make sure you tick the "Enable Customizations" checkbox at the top to apply your custom settings. That checkbox gives you an easy way to turn them off and on.

Also be aware these settings, being stored on the server in your account preferences, will be applied regardless of what browser or device you use to access your account.

Okay, now that I've totally scared you out of using it, here's where server admins can go get it:

Bookface Custom Add-On Download

I have tested it in both the current stable 2024.12 and 2025.7 Release Candidate versions.

My big problem with the movie Idiocracy is the lineage of the future idiots. In the beginning they show redneck families reproducing while intellectual couples are all childless.

All the people in that movie are completely dependent on machines, they accept everything they're told, without question.

Who lives like that? Not rednecks. They know how to survive on their own. They're skeptical when people tell them things as a matter of fact.

They got the origin story completely backward.

Zen Postbox Add-On Update!

The Zen Postbox add-on has been updated to version 1.3

This fixes an issue where the postbox styling was not shown sitewide or when users were not logged into the server. Now if either of the add-ons is enabled the postboxes should be shown on that server everywhere, even to users who are not logged in.

The add-ons have also been updated to make sure they work with the 2025.7 Release Candidate development version.

Again, the difference between Postbox and Zen Postbox is the first one only includes the stylesheet to show them. You have to manually add the BBcode to your posts. The "Zen" one adds a button to the Compose modal to let you pick from a list and automatically adds the BBcode to your post.

Bookface 1.8 is Here!

This update has a LOT of changes and fixes in it! I think I got in everything everyone who gave me feedback asked for (check the README file "Changelog" section for details). Lots of attention paid to making buttons, tabs, and drop-down appearance consistent, and lots of new CSS variables for customization plus a new option for customizing Bookface (more on that in a moment).

Bookface 1.8 has been tested with both the current stable 2024.12 and 2025.7 Release Candidate versions.

The most obvious change you'll probably notice is that the responses below posts and comments now look completely different:

Responses below posts and comments

And below an Event Post:

Responses below Event posts

If multiple people engaged with the post in a certain way you no longer have to click the count to see the list, it's a popover that appears on hover (active on touch devices). This is a lot cleaner and more consistent with how these are displayed on other social media platforms.

You'll also notice that the Main Menu missing icons are in place. This is a change that's coming in the next Friendica release anyway, but Bookface lets you have it right now:

Missing Main Menu Icons implemented

Someone specifically asked whether the main navigation buttons could have labels on them:

NavBar Icons with Labels

I didn't turn it on by default, but nav button labels are now coded into Bookface and if you're using CSS variable customization they're easy to turn on:

:root {
--show-navbar-labels: block;
}

The label text is also customizable. Until now the only way to implement such customizations was either for a server admin to manually put them into the header or footer sitewide or for individual users to put them in a user content stylesheet just for your web browser. That's why I'm also releasing a new Friendica addon called "Bookface Custom" that, if your server admin installs it, allows you to customized every one of the Bookface CSS variables to your heart's content.

Get 'em while they're hot:

* Bookface 1.8
* Bookface User Styles 1.8
* Bookface Custom Addon 1.0

I agree that it does take up a lot of space, because I made the icons larger and added more white space for a cleaner, more modern look. Everything in Frio is too tiny and compact and cluttered. It doesn't help that Friendica just has a LOT of controls. Too many IMO. It's kind of overwhelming to new users.

For smaller displays when you get below 768 pixels wide it engages the mobile interface. There's some overlap between desktop and tablet landscape making it impossible to discern which it is, and for most tablets in portrait I chose to display a compact version of the desktop bars to keep the position of controls consistent if you change tablet orientation.

It is technically possible to merge the two bars into one (actually make them 50% screen width and positioned seamlessly side-by-side) for really wide screens, but there's just too much stuff there to do that for a smaller screen. And the sub-section words in the second toolbar can be really short in some languages or really long in others.

You could try zooming in until the mobile interface kicks in. Though it doesn't really save that much space as there are still two toolbars, they just aren't both at the top.

The image features a black background with white text centered in the middle. The text is in a simple, sans-serif font and reads: "I wouldn't do anything for a Klondike bar, but I'd do some sketchy shit for some whiskey and bacon." The text is arranged in four lines, with the first line being the longest and the last line being the shortest. The overall layout is straightforward, with no additional images or graphics present.

@Theodore John Kaczynski This map does not go far enough back in history to even come close to accuracy. What it fails to recognize is that China's history goes back at least 8000 years and perhaps as much as 30,000 and over this long history their empire has expanded and collapsed repeatedly such that many of these "recent" areas actually have been part of China also in the distant past.

My otherwise healthy 16 year old daughter has POTS and I was pretty pissed when I heard the most recent show.

So I emailed John and Adam her story.

To John and Adam's credit, the each emailed me back.

How many hosts on CNN or Fox with 1 million viewers would have emailed me back?

That's one of the many reasons I continue to support the show.

If you're a hater, stop listening.

Adam emailed me back while on vacation for his wife's birthday.

They appreciate their listeners/producers.

Oy.

Reminds me of a friend w/ 2 daughters.
The elder was a troublemaker and a liar; the younger one a model student and obedient.

The troublemaker threatened suicide and was taken from my friend.
In therapy, it turned out that the "liar" was a good girl, traumatized from her sister's lies about her.

Good girl was bad after all. And bad girl was depressed but good.
