If you happen to have a blue checkmark on ‘that one website’ and an account on @fosstodon, I’ve got bad news for you: You’re not spending your money right.
Elon doesn’t need any more money than he already has. #FundFosstodon instead!

HTTP/1.1 200 OK {"type":"ERROR","page":" Something went wrong. Please try again later."} :ohgno: @kytta I remember using an API that used "201 Created" for both success and failure on a GET endpoint for reading. Live support is currently unavailable. Agents are available at the following times: *working times that only apply to US & Canada* :blobcatnotlikethis: C++ is the ugliest language out there. There are so many things! It’s direct opposite to the ‘there is only one way to do X’ paradigm — there are always a million ways! Static typing is fun, `const std::vector<std::shared_ptr<MyClass>> &classes` is not. If I had to choose between C++ and C, I’d pick the latter, despite it being less safe. But of course, nothing beats the modern higher level alternatives. Even NSA doesn’t want to touch C/C++ any more. My employer (a university institute) tasked me with selecting good external hard drives for the scientists and lab workers. I honestly don’t know where to start: there are so many of them! Do you have a brand that you like the most, and if so, why? The drives should be about 512G/1T in size and reasonably priced :)

@kytta Step 1 should be working out what you want/need them for? The main question being "is this for temporary storage of lots of data" or "long term storage of stuff" (which might be better stored elsewhere?) @kytta I'm assuming they are going to save important files, so: TIL: reorder-python-imports by @codewithanthony@twitter.com This import sorter for #Python is much faster than #isort, can globally add, remove, and rename imported modules, all while having no config to worry about! pre-commit support is there, too! https://pypi.org/project/reorder-python-imports/ Definitely using this on all my projects from now on. Back in the day, I have developed 'toot', which allows one to post text toots to any Mastodon instance. After putting in the text and the URL, one would be redirected to the share page of the instance (very useful for 'Share' buttons!) Today, I have got something to announce: version 3 is in the works! It will have a new name: #Share2Fedi, and it will support more federated networks, like Diaspora, GNU Social, and hopefully others, too! 🙌🏻 So far, I have only updated the logo and the build system, so there is a long way that lies before me... 😅 The renaming of Facebook to Meta happened an eternity ago, so I propose to finally stop using ‘FAMAG’ and other similar acronyms in the favour of ‘MAGMA’. It actually makes a lot of sense, since magma, just like the MAGMA companies, is: - unpleasant to touch I can’t stop thinking about building an ActivityPub-based social network, that would implement very niche and non-standard features. I find it a bit problematic, that the whole pitch of many Fediverse services is ‘X but open-source and federated’. Pixelfed is a better Insta, Friends a is a better Facebook, Masto is a better Twitter, etc. I want to conceive a social network, that doesn’t rely on the existing ideas of social networks. But I also have no new ideas 🤔 @kytta Not just you, I've been wondering the same. I can imagine we're not the only ones, too :) Like, for example, the ‘Circles’ of Google+. It was pretty new for that time, and it still isn’t present in the modern day social networks. Is it because the idea is not that good? Or is it because Google+ was a failure from day 1, and nobody had gotten a taste of it?  16 seconds ping, 9 seconds jitter, 0.3 Mbps download speed 🫠 Gotta love the Digitalisierung 🇩🇪 So, I started learning French and I would like to practice it. That's why I'm looking for a French-speaking Mastodon (or GoToSocial) instance, preferably about free software or technology in general. Do you have any tips?

Although I've had 9 hours of quite good sleep, I feel extremely tired the whole day long. I guess this is what autumn feels like 🙄 Can anyone recommend a signage/kiosk OS and/or software for Raspberry Pi? Use case: we display weather, cafeteria meal plan, clock, and news on some screens in the hallway. We used to use Screenly OSE, but it doesn’t work any more for reasons unknown. We are looking for an open-source solution that doesn’t require any cloud accounts.

@kytta Two years ago, I used #FullPageOS for a project and was happy with how easy it was to set up :raspberrypi:   @kytta I’ve been wondering the same thing as well. Helping a friend startup a business and he needs a digital signage solution too! Okay, WTF did I just discover If you go to download-chromium.appspot.com, you can download the latest build of Chromium. Adding /dl/Mac, for example, will take you to the latest stable build for Intel Macs. So far, so good. But what happens if one does specify an unsupported OS? https://download-chromium.appspot.com/dl/Commodore … What even is this? 😂  DHL.de didn’t accept my plus-addressed email address, so I dropped them an email about why it’s wrong. Their reply: ‘due to internal security regulations, the entry of e-mail addresses with certain endings or characters […] is not accepted in our system.’ Yeah, right, tell me more about how some ASCII characters are more secure than the others 🙄 Our university has set up #Nextcloud recently, and I have now completely switched to #ONLYOFFICE (and I hope others do too!) The collaboration feature is amazing and works no worse than Google Docs. And the Flatpak version is very snappy, too! If you are like me and merge your PRs manually (and also use @codeberg or @gitea), you might have noticed that the ‘Manually merged’ button doesn’t work since v1.17. I have able to identify the regression and have created an issue: https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/20983 If you are experienced in #VueJS AND know how to fix it cleanly, take a look at it; a good candidate for a quick yet important open-source contribution :) |
