Anyone here knowledgeable about the growth of digital surveillance infrastructure in Latin America? I've read a few articles about Mexico and Guatemala but am no means an expert and am hoping to learn more.

I skateboarded to the @zlb_berlin to do some wifi-ing and was reminded that they have their mastodon handle posted on the front door. Bravo!

We now show alt text in the fediverse! Now alt text from photos in your blog...
We now show alt text in the fediverse! Now alt text from photos in your blog posts gets sent out over ActivityPub, so your images are more accessible to your readers and followers there.
Alt text (meaning alternative text) lets you add a description of any images you include in your posts. This is especially helpful to readers who are blind or have low vision, and use screen readers to consume your posts — instead of an empty space where your image is, the screen reader can read aloud the description you provide, giving them the full context of everything you’re sharing.
In our Plain Text editor, you can use standard Markdown to add alt text in the brackets before your image URL:

In our Rich Text editor, you can use the top menu option: Insert → Image to find a Description (alt text) field, where you can describe the image:
Alt text on Write.as has been here since day one. But especially with it carrying over to the fediverse now, we’d highly encourage writers to make an effort to include it more often in their posts!

I was very surprised that Shapeshifter doesn't even have its own Wikipedia page, Unsanity does: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unsanity but its rather sparse for how important for an era of Mac OS it was

How my strange upbringing intersects with @TheOnion...
Several people have told me we were name-checked in The Onion autobiography but I don't remember seeing the actual paragraph. Kudos that they got the orthography of my name correct and managed to cram all the details without a single error. It feels somehow apropos that we are called out as minor conspirators in the Onionization of Western Civilization.

I recently came across @rosyna talking about trying to bring back `haxies` and discovered that they were part of Unsanity. If you are not familiar, this is the krew who made Shapeshifter which thus enabled "Mac Theming" to flourish (@macthemes) for as long as it did. A lot of my early childhood interest in computers started by trying to figure out how get various themes installed & working. This screenshot is of Somatic by @dlanham that I rocked for a long time in the early Mac OS X Tiger era.
