Eben wieder das wunderbare Skript zum Konvertieren von Videos in animierte Gifs von @bascht neu installiert.

Glücklicherweise hatte ich in mein Blog getippt wie ich es das letzte Mal gemacht habe: https://depone.net/2016/03/01/video-in-animiertes-gif-konvertieren/

Falls Du also auch ab und Bildschirmaufnahmen für GitHub brauchst, kann ich das Skript nur empfehlen.

leave PHP users alone.

they get enough shit. they don't need more.

you don't need to be the hundredth person to tell them why PHP sucks and that they're bad programmers for using it

you don't need to be the tenth person that week to link the same anti-PHP blog post

i worked in the mapping industry for long enough to understand that routing is a hard problem.

but that's no excuse for google maps still being half-assed about multimodal. its inability to integrate public transit, walking, and cycling is an active harm to cities and people.

Do you know any clients for Mastodon which are working for visually impaired people (with screenreading technics)?
