I do not like packing bags 😓

@Gargron I wonder if there’s some cross-pollination between how #SSB allows unique canonical users to be tagged “same-as”? In their case it allows a unique ID for eg mobile and desktop accounts to be understood as being from the same person. Something similar could work for hashtags

@Gargron I'm sorry your back hurts, that you get better

@Gargron love being old lol

@Gargron

what is up with that

@Gargron since most of the official reporting isn’t making this clear: the app was only intended to get estimated reports to the press faster—the official vote was tallied on paper, as had always been the plan

Like, the app is a total shitshow and a total embarrassment for american politics, but none of this nonsense actually effected election security, just election /reporting/

@Gargron Call this crap out instead of dancing around it.

@Gargron

Eugen, have a look here:

The Iowa Caucuses App Had Another Problem: It Could Have Been Hacked

While there is no evidence hackers intercepted or tampered with the results, a security firm consulted by ProPublica found that the app lacks key safeguards.

Good album

@Gargron If there aren't any actual beagles then what's the point?

@Gargron

A long time ago, yes.
Classic Van Vogt.
Why ?

@Gargron IIRC A.E. Van Vogt.
I've read it about forty years ago. Did it involve a "Nexiologist" (or something like that), someone combining several fields of science, and was able to teleport later on?

@Gargron are you the creator of this app sir??

@Gargron GIMP and Inkscape 😁

@Gargron :facepalm:

@Gargron sounds good. I'll listen to it.

As you like progressive rock, do you know Harmonium?

Harmonium - Histoires sans paroles

From the album "Si on avait besoin d'une cinquième saison"

@Gargron You totally got me hooked! Game of the year

@Gargron relatable

@Gargron I don't know what this means but your mother and I are very proud of you.

@Gargron have you heard the new album? It’s quite different but I enjoyed it

@Gargron Happy birthday! Glad I snuck in while new users were accepted. It is fun to be here!

@Gargron AAAAAAAAAAaaaAAaaAAaAAaaAAaAAaaAAaAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaa

@Gargron wtf did I just watch

@Gargron "Mozilla Firefrog" ah!

@Gargron I don't see any thick red lines; which platform are you using, are you using light mode?

@Gargron The giant reaction picker really confused me earlier because the reactions in it were emojis like the gear emoji that look like UI elements.

@Gargron

There's always Ripcord for the desktop... https://cancel.fm/ripcord/

@Gargron see this is why mastodon is good nobody asks me for a telephone number that someone can steal

@Gargron

@Gargron good morning!

@Gargron Ahoy

@Gargron no, that's fine... in a multiple choice poll the options aren't exclusive, so they don't have to add up to 100%. the actual poll is a yes/no question for each, so the only constraint is that each option has between 0-100% votes.

@Gargron Always should be 100%.

@Gargron the question assumes that "percentages" already have a meaning before you try to get "100%". Percentages of what? If you want to show the relative strengths of each option, then the number of users who voted are irrelevant, and it's a matter of showing 100 * optionVoteCount / totalVoteCount for each option. And then that result tells you how to rank the options, but nothing about the _popularity_ of each option. For that, you'd need to weigh votes based on how many things a user voted.
