Deadly Headshot

@mcnado Or, for that matter, the fact Trump's regime have cut the funding for medical interventions preventing natal deaths (after classing it as low priority), thereby ensuring many full-term children die during birth anyway? So much for them being even "pro-life for the unborn"...

@bagder Hey! Nice to know I could make money if I lost all my integrity overnight!

@mcnees@mastodon.social You probably already know about the Fediverse's own MTV, The Indie Beat TV (https://tv.theindiebeat.fm/) but I'll mention it here for the other commentors who possibly don't...

@7sleepersmusic@mastodon.social Same, I hang out there and welcome newbies. That said, it's become a bit of a hellhole recently, but the solution there is not destroying discoverability but not expanding a single server to a size where moderation is so difficult it's probably nearly impossible? @staff@mastodon.social

@loren@flipping.rocks Have you been sent to hell? You may be entitled to condemnation

@nixCraft@mastodon.social Wait, so people without smartphones are blocked from viewing websites on their computers because they can't scan a QR code?!

@dillo For old browsers using the Wayback Machine, there's http://wayback-classic.net/ (which is also faster for modern browsers, so I use it regardless), but there's nothing for the archive as a whole, sadly... @brewsterkahle

@jamesthomson Since the GDPR states that the buttons should be of "equal prominence", "dubious moral character" is the least of their worries from a legal standpoint!

@urlyman@mastodon.social The petition calls for a referendum; last time we had one of those it was coopted by foreign powers working with the far right to create the worst possible result. I'm not sure I trust that not to happen again...

@yourautisticlife@mast.yourautisticlife.com Weirdly, the BBC here have covered the US marches today but completely ignored the Unity march in London! I guess being an international news story means they can feel less culpable to those who oppose it?

@billgoats The irony being that both router and router are words but for different things. One is a router because it routes things (internet traffic). The other is a router because it routs things (wood usually)...

@StryderNotavi@aus.social Does the infamous "Bush Hid The Facts" Notepad glitch count? (I don't know if that still "works", of course). @solonovamax@tech.lgbt @stuartl@mastodon.longlandclan.id.au

@courtcan@mastodon.social "In 2017 a popular twitter game was to be a custom solution combining-" (it stopped suggesting at that point). "This proved so popular that was a mistake when I don't know if it's online anywhere" (not sure what that means either). @JenYetAgain@beige.party

@lnkr Trying to run it on my phone crashes the browser, unsurprisingly. I'll try again on my PC sometime...

@NewtonMark@eigenmagic.net I suspect this breaks EU GDPR (but not necessarily UK GDPR, sadly)...

@ipg This needs to be put to a beat for #FediVision2024!

@Gargron@mastodon.social It already feels faster?

@BibbleCo@infosec.exchange Unfortunately, low turnout won't convince the Tories this is a bad idea: in the trials, turnout dropped into the 20% region and they called them "successful"! @AngharadHafod@toot.wales

@dbellingradt@mastodon.social "In The Past"? We still get them in Crackers!

@SuperPenguin @goodblue Plus there's the being part of the Fediverse, so I can interact with Friendica users and comment on Peertube videos and share WriteFreely posts directly from my account!

@matthiasott@mastodon.social Ditto atom!

@ljs Welcome!

@vfrmedia@social.tchncs.de Wait, this is real?! @ranjit@friend.camp

@eviltrout@carpdiem.online Unless you have a less-powerful web browser. Discourse doesn't like my phone because I'm not using chrome.

@dosnostalgic@mastodon.social The accompanying article ( https://thebrokenpipe.com/dos/paterson_listings/ ) talks about a #bug in the printed out code caused by a carry introduced into a rotation by an ROL CX instruction, but ROL explicitly ignores the carry, doesn't it? The author seems to be assuming it's the same as RCL CX? There must have been a different reason for Paterson reverting the code to the previous iteration because that one doesn't make sense!

@Kiloku@burnthis.town I prefer the Markdown approach to how Apple just turned their text editor into a straight Word Processor without an easy way to do unformatted text anymore. Still, Microsoft shouldn't be feature-cramming Notepad of all programs! At least the new Microsoft "Edit" is an OK text editor... @solonovamax@tech.lgbt

@GroupNebula563@mastodon.social Nah, the existing blip noise was made by @jk@mastodon.social in the early days and should be kept for tradition...

@Gargron@mastodon.social Are any of these artists on Fedi?

@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social Does the noise hinge upwards like the real Concorde?

@Danhon@mastodon.cloud I've been saying for a while that the domain BBC.social is free. Imagine having toots sent to @questiontime@bbc.social read out on air instead of tweets...

@Daojoan A man so comically evil, he decided the best person to run his UK operations was the grandson of Oswald Moseley (the founder of the British Union of Fascists and wartime Hitler fanboy who, postwar, didn't even learn his lesson then and went into the National Front and lobbied government for deportation of nonwhite citizens). Now, to be fair, family doesn't make a person, but it does give background and you can be sure that's what attracted Thiel to him...

@t36s@mastodon.social Welcome Daniel! Welcome to the Fediverse!

@Migueldeicaza@mastodon.social Well done on the part of this old version of #Fedilab's built in browser for spoofing half the results to obscure my identity! I wish it blocked the power API though...

@benlockwood To be fair, the Windows phone lasted over a decade, it just didn't last that long once the iPhone was launched...

@WeirdWriter@caneandable.social The dropped kerb effect, basically?

@LeonardoDiOttio@mastodon.social Oh. I thought that did? @matthiasott@mastodon.social

@Gargron@mastodon.social I was going to say something along the lines of "By the original definition, a first world country is merely a country aligned with NATO", but I'm not sure even that's true for the US anymore...

@Mastodon As long as they don't exert pressure to have age verification built in! @sovtechfund

@mijutu@mastodon.ellipsis.fi Is Firefox no longer on fdroid, then? @catsalad@infosec.exchange @mozilla@mozilla.social

@dosnostalgic@mastodon.social Feels like something @ghalfacree@mastodon.social should have written about?

@drj@typo.social I thought OS-9 was for the 6809 (based on the 6800), not the 68000 series? (Confusing, but there's a digit difference)

@eviltrout@carpdiem.online Jelly on lineage OS

@Gargron@mastodon.social Is it about to bolt?

@greenpeace@mastodon.social Yet...

@ghalfacree@mastodon.social ? (Sorry, I don't recognise the word?) @dosnostalgic@mastodon.social

@lori No, iirc they're a custom binary format. @climagic@mastodon.social @suetanvil@freeradical.zone

@m0xEE What I meant was there were smartphones running Windows (CE and Mobile) long before the iPhone. @benlockwood

@catsalad@infosec.exchange Is there any point in Firefox on iOS? It's just Safari underneath, like everything on that platform...
