the queensland department of transport and main roads seems to be entirely aware that their poor font choice makes it borderline impossible to distinguish zero and O. yet they refuse to change it.
they are, however, confident that a pedestrian will be able to distinguish I and 1 on a vehicle that flies past them at 110km/h. a sickening display of hubris and recklessness.

My laptop is from 2013. It was OK back then. It's now running #Debian and works fine. It got an SSD a few years ago and a new battery last year.
It does all the things I need a laptop for and would be good enough for 99% of consumers.
Most people could greatly benefit in many ways from #Linux. What's a good way to get people to try Linux? Genuine question.

Ich habe gerade den "Leitfaden für den Instanz-Betrieb im dezentralen Netzwerk - Datenschutz bei Mastodon" von gefunden.
Dieser gibt neben grundsätzlichen Informationen auf was Instanzbetreiber achten müssen, vor allem auch eine sehr praktische Sammlung an Musterdokumenten unter CC BY-ND 4.0-Lizenz. Ihr könnt es also für euere Instanzen anpassen und nutzen.
Auch relevant für @Friendica Admins / @Friendica Support
Auf einem abstrakten Niveau sind die Anforderungen, die wir beschreiben, auch auf andere Plattformen des Fediverse übertragbar. Dennoch gibt es einige Aspekte, die von der konkreten Plattform und Software-Implementierung abhängen. So sind zum Beispiel die Möglichkeiten, rechtliche Texte einzubinden und anzuzeigen, unterschiedlich.

Looking for recommendations for a fedi instance for a new alt in the short term (this instance might have an outage soon and might eventually shut down entirely)
Requirements:
- Akkoma preferred (reacts, quote posts, markdown, Fedilab compatible)
- Frontend shows public/unlisted posts to anonymous users (this instance doesn't do that and it's pretty annoying when sending links to my own posts)
- High level of federation (does not block too heavily, is not blocked too heavily) (I would be happy with my fedi.absturztau.be account if that instance didn't have so many instances blocking it ages ago and never reviewing that block)
- High character limit (at least 10K, but less than 2^31 so it doesn't crash Fedilab)
- Good selection of blobcat and/or neocat emoji

It's a fucking headache but frankly I don't believe there's a way for small sites/platforms to comply, as the law is simply not written with us in mind.

It’s even offline-first, using the CRDTs under the hood (Y.js).

in reply to Lynnesbian • • •i know someone who has a personalised QLD plate that contains a 0 and an O, something like "0H Y34H". there's a shopping centre with a licence plate recognition camera that frequently misreads it as "OH Y34H".
they have to press the intercom button and ask security to let them out because the boom gate won't open. security just opens the gate, even if they would have had to pay for parking because they were there for more than three hours. a blessing and a curse.

in reply to Lynnesbian • • •UK registration mark fonts (various have been used over the years, albeit with a similar overall look) have the same problem, however our registration marks have always had separate known groups of letters and numbers so its clear from the positioning whether the mark should contain a letter or number at that point..
