@joel@functional.cafe @crowgirl@cyberplace.social this is some top-tier sealioning right here amazing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealioning

@pathfinder@beige.party _started_ playing with temporal mechanics? bruh how do you think we got here

@SallyStrange@eldritch.cafe @impermanen_@zirk.us the reason they withhold it is because it's never been tested on a cohort younger than 50. That's it. At this point it seems so, so arbitrary. I am truly hoping someone is testing it on younger folks somewhere so they can strike down the restriction, as there appears to be so many benefits. I also know two people that were far younger than 50 that had shingles.

Being in #Lisbon during a #heatdome is less than ideal. We're mostly spending afternoons indoors with A/C. I am pretty impressed with this article and the instructions from the government. You wouldn't see this kind of detail in a lot of places in North America. https://theportugalpost.com/posts/portugals-heat-emergency-red-alerts-activated-cooling-centers-open-what-residents-must-know-now #heatwave

blowing my mind a little that neither #jellyfin or #homeassistant supports OIDC auth 😵‍💫 was thinking of trying to put all my home server stuff behind a SSO wall but not going to bother at the moment with those revelations

I never see #substack links anywhere else in my daily internet use, but for some reason they are all over mastodon. Given that substack is a Nazi bar, the fediverse is the last place I'd expect to find such heavy usage of it. dunno why I'm posting this. just to voice my cognitive dissonance I guess

@Lunaphied@provably.online easy just get a #3dprinter which requires a heavy stable desk, toolkits, spare parts, and a stockpile of 25kg of colored plastic on rolls so you can spend the next two years printing organizers for your 3d printing stuff and THEN you can start 3d printing organizers for your other stuff

@Eetschrijver@mastodon.social @CppGuy@infosec.space @Tjader@mastodonsweden.se @fesshole@mastodon.social good call. I don't think the descriptions of how foul it is really do it justice.... people start vomiting as soon as the cans are opened

@CppGuy@infosec.space @Eetschrijver@mastodon.social @Tjader@mastodonsweden.se @fesshole@mastodon.social search YouTube for the surströmming challenge, if you dare

@cstross@wandering.shop not posting this was an option in some other non-cursed timeline

@Alice@beige.party @bobthomson70@mastodon.social even worse is when they're pinching a microscopic tiny microphone between their fingers and holding it up like some kind of bug

@thomasmey@social.tchncs.de @Migueldeicaza@mastodon.social yeah it's hard to sympathize when Americans talk about gas prices 😆

@sarah@sosial.link The #nextcloud user experience is holding the whole ecosystem back, imo. Finding myself down a rabbit hole today trying to figure out why my nextcloud container goes offline periodically, looking at hacks to reboot it daily, tracing logs.... just sanity checked myself.... I'm done with it. The file sync works fine (when the server is up) but the client UI is atrocious on both Linux and windows. Looking at moving off it now. #Syncthing, #mealie or #kitchenowl, and Obsidian will replace 99% of what I use it for

#marathon is a fantastic game. Highly recommend. #marathongame #Bungie

#Lisbon airport continues to be a shitshow I guess. We were in outbound passport control for an hour, which I guess is a lot less than it could have been. Airport staff were full-on yelling at people trying to cut through lines, stress levels were high. I'd avoid Lisbon airport until they sort this #ees mess out. 🤷 As a Canadian I'm still baffled by outbound #passport control in #EU. Nothing about it seems efficient.

@BoydStephenSmithJr @mdreid Akshually, the original quote did not have the off-by-one joke, although this version is my go-to as well. https://martinfowler.com/bliki/TwoHardThings.html

@tod@hci.social this should be tagged with #BuyCanadian! I'm sad to see that tag falling into less usage recently 😔

@ProPublica@newsie.social @hacks4pancakes@infosec.exchange If you're far from the front lines and wondering how you can possibly help to make a real impact against fascism, this is a big one. ☝️ Independent media is a requirement of a functional democracy. Satire plays an important role too. I support @TheBeaverton@mstdn.ca in Canada, they rock.

@MaryAustinBooks@mstdn.social @Birk_lab@fediscience.org @MugsysRapSheet@mastodon.social oh you mean Temu Goebbels

@vrec@mastodon.energy @chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.ca I've been quoted from two different companies and it's much closer to what @chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.ca posted though. An ~8kW system for $22k - $30k, or $2.75-3.75 per watt.

@brett@bitflipp.social Considering your post is literally 100% about judging people, I consider it fair. Imagine if you were applying, and it was the other way around. "This guy went to a public university, CLEARLY he is a fool that can't make a proper evaluation". I suggest you ask some folks why they made their choice, and listen. Gain some perspective before condemning the other.

@inthehands@hachyderm.io It's weird how frothy it got. Blockchain is a really incredible feat of computer science built on decades of mathematical research, but it's... a distributed database. And a wildly inefficient one. Like imagine investors going nuts over an algorithm, or a bunch of mathematical functions that predict the next wor...... oh

@tod@hci.social oh 🫰

@GregMitchell@c.im pick a site and try it... none of them work for me. https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/herbed-lentils-with-spinach-and-tomatoes-recipe-195318 to be clear it gets the metadata. but the image request gets a 403 denied every time.

@GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social WHY IT MATTERS

I wish #mastodon had a feature to follow hashtags but filter posts written in other languages in those tags. Maybe that's too complicated to implement as a native feature. It seems Germans in particular use a lot of English hashtags but otherwise write posts in all #German, which I have no proficiency in. An auto-#translate client-side feature might be a good compromise?

@tod@hci.social when will you be ditching YouTube

@brett@bitflipp.social This is pretty terrible tbh. Got receipts for the claim that "you can usually attend public universities for cheaper"? If this was even remotely an apples-to-apples comparison for everyone, then for-profit institutions wouldn't exist. Choosing a school isn't just about cost, and paying for school doesn't buy you a diploma for zero work. Your viewpoint is extreme.

@chewie@mammut.gogreenit.net No, it wasn't hardware - we sunset the #Beatsource product and merged the catalog with #Beatport. This required months of co-ordination with suppliers that often do not keep good inventory of their own tracks, and there can be significant changes to available catalog since suppliers first delivered it. Migrating the tracks updated thousands of availability statuses. Please reach out to support. The content ops team prioritizes finding missing content. Sometimes it's a matter of matching new catalog numbers, sometimes we have to replace with updated releases, but support can help. (But I agree you should always keep your own music safe! Suppliers can take it down at any point!)

@soundsonthewaydown@mastodon.social taking backups of Wikipedia is easy and they're surprisingly small if you exclude media. I keep a copy from pre-AI explosion too :/

@GregMitchell@c.im okay so I've sunk quite a few hours in at this point. Running my container through a wiregaurd VPN tunnel managed to unlock a few sites including AllRecipes (at least for now), but definitely not all of them. That link you provided works too! (and looks delicious!!) reading through GitHub on #Mealie and #KitchenOwl makes this seem like an ongoing, ubiquitous issue for scrape implementations. going to need to decide if the importing hassle is worth the shopping list and planning features....

Car charging in #europe continues to be a shitshow. It is so hostile to visitors. I tried my best to give #Remo my money and they make it literally impossible. I am sadly, very glad I rented a hybrid vehicle instead of a pure electric for my current trip in #portugal. It's worse for charging than our experience in France was last year.

emergency alert my pug is sad I have a sad pug emergency

@soundsonthewaydown@mastodon.social no idea, im not sure the size is even tallied anywhere. Also, the latest image dump as a centralized mirror is 13 years old, so not sure how much use it would be today as a bulk download. There are detailed instructions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Database_download

@brett@bitflipp.social Your partner's anecdotal experience hardly disqualifies the judgement of millions of people. Your privilege and bias is off the charts.

@ml@social.mitexleo.one @mauvehed@social.mauve.haus Agree with this. I find it pretty unreliable and had to set up a remote admin tunnel to my server after having Files go down twice while I was away from home. The admin UX is generally terrible. I also find the apps ecosystem very amateurish and have disabled most apps. The Notes app was able to take down my server with a failed write. 😵‍💫😵‍💫

just dropped $700 into my stupid old gas vehicle for oil, rad flush, transmission and filters. I hate gas/ICE vehicles so much now. it's all so .... unnecessary. can't wait to replace it with a 2nd #ev

@QueerMatters@mstdn.social damn, where you getting such cheap ddr4. it's double that price in Canada

so far not too impressed with #mealie. every recipe I've tried to import from a URL has had the image scrape get 403'd .... and the import itself is already multiple steps with all the parsing. anyone have success with importing recipes? there is no way the family is gonna manually upload images. #homelab #selfhosting
