does anyone know how can I delete a @loops account? since the project themselves never responded to my asking them.

hey fedizens, specially people who rely on AltText to experience the web and accessibility specialists, I have a very sincere question for you all: is the situation depicted in the image attached to this post an episode of ableism? this kind of thing has been repeatedly happening in my timeline, sadly recurring amongst visual artists and people who call themselves "progressives" and "activists". so I wanna know if I'm overreacting. thanks in advance!

here's the link to the original post depicted in the image and its replies: https://mastodon.social/@risingsand/114224059837078681

#FediAsk / #BikeTooter : Is there a #free and #opensource software ( #FOSS ) on #Android for #bike #navigation which allows to upload a #GPX route, *easily* and quickly modify it before as well as *during* navigation, and at the end download the GPX file? I love the #OsmAnd navigation tool, but, since I am by far not a #geek ,somehow fail to quickly modify the tracks.
Thank you.

Internet Data Usage

#FediHelp #FediAsk

Hi guys, do you know any extension or method for #Firefox and #Chrome that can measure the #internet bandwidth usage for each tab?

I consumed 25GB data of #android #hotspot when it was supposed to consume around 5/6GB monthly, some tabs are consuming a lot of bandwidth and I want to understand which they are...

Thanks...

Gibt es hier OptikerInnen die mir mit so einer Frage helfen können? Ich kann z.b. auch nur mit Brille lesen, mir würde aber nie einfallen eine Lupe zu nutzen, weil das völlig unpraktisch ist. Was ich auch hier sehe. Gibt es vernünftige Gründe hierfür, die abseits von Eitelkeit oder Kosten sind?

Würzt ihr eure Tiefkühlpizza nach?

EDIT: SOLVED. VPN did the trick.

I would like to uninstall the Duolingo App and use Duolingo in a browser.
However, the Duolingo website only tells me to download the app. No option to log in.

Has anyone found a way to use Duolingo in a browser on android? I would be very grateful for any pointers or boosts.

Please: No comments about using a different app. If there was one providing the language I am learning, I would have switched. Thank you!

So this person / startup contacted me to consult on development of their new product, a sort of agricultural drone. They found my #floss work on high-speed cameras and optical flow, and want my help.

Their product and the end-game of a product I'm developing (drone shepherd which protects grazing animals from predators) uses similar technology. So the work would have to be done by me in the end, a few years down the line. I told them I could help out, on the premise that all code I produce is free software.

The thing is, in terms of money... I have no money. I also have more pressing matters at hand, and a lot of features to develop and services to provide for products I already offer.
The company asking me also has no money, for now.

A person has to eat, and I do run a flosshw consultancy, so this is exactly the kind of thing I should take payment to do.

How should I bring up the matter of compensation / providing a livelihood for myself while doing the work?

In light of my getting abruptly kicked off #Oracle Cloud without explanation, can someone recommend a Europe-based, trustworthy, independent or anti-fascist / libre-left-aligned cloud hosting solution?

Big pro if they're a coop or democratic membership org of some sort.

Ideally I want to be able to use #kubernetes or k3s for most workloads, but if they only offer vps or straight-up compose-files; I'll be fine.

I don't want to open any ports in my homenet, so I at least need somewhere trustworthy with a public IP to run my mesh vpn of choice.

Mal eine Frage ins Fediverse:
Ich suche eine Software zur Vereinsverwaltung. Ich will Mitglieder verwalten und Buchungen machen können. Online Banking muss nicht sein. Das ganze möchte ich vom Internet abgekoppelt auf eigener Hardware betreiben und mit mehreren Leuten per Webbrowser zugreifen.
Kennt da jemand etwas aus eigener Erfahrung?

What software do you use as #MediaPlayer? And for organising music, ripping CDs, etc.
Or is everyone only on spotifiy anymore?

Da Mozilla sich jetzt wohl entgültig entschieden hat den Datenschutz aus der Unternehmensphilosophie zu kicken suche ich einen neuen Browser.

Was ich brauche:
- Datenschutzfreundlich
- Kein Chromium!
- Auf Windows und Android laufen
- Eine Sync Option zwischen beiden wäre toll

Gibt es da was?

Is there a platform that is collecting statements of public interest?

I mean any statement some person of public interest made, that is relevant for some discussion
- with citation source
- tagging for topics

I think that may be useful.

I've been taking many photos of parks lately. I would like to upload them somewhere so that there's a public record of them. Any suggestions on where to put them, #FediAsk? I was thinking of the Archive, but that seems like a too predictable place for such things.

I come once again to the fedi for technical assistance:

Is there a way to "copy" a hard drive to move all its information, OS included, to another hard drive?

My linux laptop has a SSD of only 100gb, I would like someday to buy a larger SSD, but I don't want to have to go through the whole process of installing and configuring my OS because I am more than happy with how I have everything (and it would be the third time ).

I have read that there are ways to "clone" a hard drive, although I saw that the capacity is also cloned, so, from what I understood, even with a larger capacity SSD, I would be in the same situation.

I need more or less clarify the question to see if I take the plunge and buy the new SSD or not.

In advance, thank you .

Vengo una vez más al fedi por asistencia tecnica:

¿Existe una forma de "copiar" un disco duro para pasar toda su información, Sistema Operativo incluido, a otro disco duro?

Mi laptop con linux tiene una SSD de solo 100gb, me gustaria algún día comprar una SSD de mayor capacidad, pero no quiero tener que pasar por todo el proceso de intalacion y configuración de mi OS porque estoy más que conforme con como tengo todo (y ya seria la tercera vez )

He leido por alli que sí existen formas de "clonar" un disco duro, aunque según vi tambien se clona la capacidad, osea que, por lo que entendí, aún con una SSD de mayor capacidad, estaria en las mismas.

Necesito que me aclaren más o menos la cuestión para ver si doy el paso y compró la nueva SSD o si me toca Ajo y Agua.

De antemano, gracias
