Little bit tilty, but how to make slides in mpl talk at @SciPyConf by maintainer @QuLogic Make yours at https://t.co/JjcRoW5bSI

Poll time... How many of you have used @gadugadu will Pidgin? We're trying to get an idea on interest and whether or not we should keep support for it in Pidgin 3.

#Fedora Linux 37 is here! Read about it at https://t.co/9WRN53W1uT or head straight to https://t.co/5W5uwv6jfY to start downloading!

And the fonts in question that inspired working on this, also because of @story645 https://t.co/qx9p4V7RuY

Also, video compression kills the fonts on thin weights and/or if you scale up the video, so don't @ me about the render quality.

I don't see a way to add alt text to the video, so here's some: the main view is of upper- and lowercase Roman alphabet in Mona Sans, with a selector for Hubot Sans. There are 3 sliders for weight, width and slant, which are changed via mouse and the font updates based on them.

Last night I went and implemented font variation support in mplcairo, using all the builtin capabilities of Cairo and FreeType: https://t.co/g6UvzvDpEc This example replicates the pattern from the recently announced Mona Sans/Hubot Sans site from @github

Today 20 years ago, Blender became open source. Bringing Freedom to Create for everyone, forever. 🌸 #b3d

3.6 is out c/o our release manager @QuLogic and all other sorts of awesome folks! 🥳 Longer thread on all the cool things in a few days, but for now check out the highlight real at

While I don't love how it works, managed to get the Transparency plugin working again in @impidgin 3 against @GTKtoolkit 4.

Last week, @impidgin made it to @GTKtoolkit 4. Now it's time to refresh the preference pages (some parts still a bit WIP.)

After 207 days, 139 review (pull) requests over 3 repositories. Pidgin 3 (still in development) is officially a @GTKtoolkit 4 application! Congratulations to the team and everyone involved on this huge milestone!

Tagging @matplotlib release candidates on a Friday

After a ton of work most of it from @QuLogic we have the Pidgin 3 development tree running in GTK4!! There's still a ton of work to do to yet, but after 6+ months of work, it compiles and runs!!

With lots and lots of `# if 0`, I have a compiling-and-running @impidgin on GTK 4. Much is broken though (like several menus). Let's see if we can get this committed in @rw_grim's stream tomorrow.

We have a bugfix release thanks to @QuLogic! 🥳 We fixed some alignment and color and interactivity and units and nans and builds and oh no it's crashing 😖 bugs! https://t.co/SmQ5l6B2n9

Oh, @Bell Mobility has an option to block data access. BUT, it can only be applied to lines that already have a data plan. So if you accidentally leave data on, you'll only find out that you were charged Pay-per-use rates ($130/GB!) when you get your bill or the $50 CRTC warning.

Because of #SciPy2022 sprints, I started on https://t.co/t5Acb01s3H (blitting in Slider widgets) And then on the flight back, I also managed to put in: https://t.co/SWWPOIIxcV (blitting in all *Button widgets)
