Kann jemand eine #privacy-freundliche #Schrittzähler App für #Android empfehlen, die ohne Smartwatch/Fitness Uhr funktioniert? Suche für meinen Papa, der mag beim handwerken aber keine Uhr tragen. Muss auch nicht super akkurat sein, Richtwerte würden ihm schon reichen.
Apps von #fdroid bevorzugt, aber Play Store geht auch, solange die App Open Source ist. Deutsches Interface wäre nice.

'Great is justice. It is in the soul.'
Old words from Walt Whitman.
“Great is Justice; Justice is not settled by legislators and laws…it is in the soul.
It cannot be varied by statutes any more than love or pride or the attraction of gravity can, It is immutable… it does not depend on majorities… majorities or what not come at last before the same passionless and exact tribunal.
There is significant evidence that Grok actually inserted information about “white genocide” in South Africa into prompts that didn't appear to be related to this topic.
Why Did Grok Start Talking About ‘White Genocide’?

*European Citizens' Initiative for a Ban on conversion practices in the European Union*
Please share widely with everyone you know who is an #EU citizen!
Under 36 hours left to give a statement of support. Until end of 17. of May!
Total reached so far: 971.914
8 countries have reached the threshold so far, 7 were needed, but every other signation helps, also in case of fake or wrong signations, to still get over the 1 million signations.
Especially #denmark #Italy and #Sweden might still be able to reach over 100%.
France got over 900% now, signations from there are also still wanted!
An initiative a few months back on safe abortion rights had almost 1.2 million in the end, which was their target from the beginning and is needed to be safe.
If 1 million gets reached, the initiative is legally binding the EU to do something about a ban.

"Beyond comprehension"
ORG has responded to the government's plans to rely on the deeply flawed eVisa scheme to carry out immigration raids and deport people.
As ORG's @sarahalsherif says, "with the use of technology, automated decision-making and AI, we can expect to see a Windrush scandal on steroids."

The art of books & the beauty of different editions.
I remember buying the trade edition, but had forgotten the title, so when I came across the mass market edition I scooped it up. It could be said that I should donate one of them, but I don’t really care for that idea. I collect books, especially by certain authors, JCO being one. Really, I just need to decide which edition to read, or I could split my time between the two. Choices, choices. 📚 #bookstodon #photography
