so yeah, there's a highly experimental flatpak build of recast up on https://github.com/hardcoeur/recast for those intrepid enough among you.

As part of our volunteer-driven accessibility initiative in GNOME Calendar, and for the first time in the 10+ years of Calendar's existence, we finally completed and merged the first step needed to have a working calendar app for people who rely on keyboard navigation. This merge request in particular makes the event widgets focusable with navigation keys (arrow left/up/right/down) and activatable with space/enter. This will be available in GNOME 49.
Most of GNOME Calendar's layout and widgets consist of custom widgets and complex calculations, both independently and according to other factors (window size, height and width of each cell, number of events, positioning, etc.), so these widgets need to be minimal to have as little overhead as possible. This means that these widgets also need to have the necessary accessibility features reimplemented or even rethought, including and starting with the event widgets.
We also hope to get other parts of GNOME Calendar accessible before GNOME 49, but I can't promise anything at the moment. We did start working with making the month view accessible: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/merge_requests/564
Since Upscaler has just reached 150,000 installs on Flathub, I'm releasing Upscaler 1.5.0! Upscaler is an app that allows you to upscale images locally, securely, and completely offline.
Thanks to @zoeyTheWitch's wonderful contribution, this release introduces the long overdue functionality to load multiple images at once and add them to the queue. This avoids having to load and add each image to the queue, which will significantly speed up the process of adding images to the queue.
The entire async and threading model was ported to the asyncio and threading modules, thanks to the long *await*ed (pun very much intended) asyncio integration in PyGObject that was made available recently.
Loading images has become much faster and smoother, while using less memory as a direct result of the asyncio and threading port.
This release also makes saving the resulting images completely optional. Additionally, there is now a copy button to copy images without saving them. As such, the process to upscale images has gotten more straightforward than ever – just load the image, set the desired scaling factor and the image type.
The progress rows have gotten a redesign to make them more reminiscent to typical rows with progress bars.
You can get Upscaler 1.5.0 on Flathub: https://flathub.org/apps/io.gitlab.theevilskeleton.Upscaler
Intelligent grammar & style checks Instant publishing to WordPress, Medium, Ghost, DUDA & more Smooth, responsive interface Built-in goal tracking to boost your productivity Extensive formatting options for your text. Extensive support for importing and exporting to your favorite formats (yes, you can most likely import your project from commercial-editor-X)
and i'm not ready for a release until three other features have been implemented.
Is anyone using #GTK4's PrintUnixDialog/PrintJob via Python? I haven't been able to find any other examples in real projects to see if we're using it wrong, or there's a bug elsewhere
https://github.com/freedomofpress/securedrop-client/pull/2411#issuecomment-2828970646 is the issue we're encountering in #SecureDrop, which is that the page range selector/value is being ignored.
slowly but surely.
and yes, the grammar & style sidebar is a proof of concept at this point.
nothing is more rock, than AC/DC.
ripgrep is metal AF, so as a logical extension to that, ripgrep is in sore need of usecases, and nothing is more ICP-esque than creating a launcher using ripgrep!
thunderstruck, soon in a git repo near u.
What do you think is still missing in #Wayland?
I feel that the last rough edges have been ironed out in the last year. This includes #HDR, #TripleBuffering, #ColorManagement, #SessionRestore implementations, improved #Accessibility, etc.
What important pieces do you think are still missing in Wayland?
