1. @lehtimaeki I don't think BlueSky is a broadcast channel anymore, plenty of people have talked about how they see more interaction on there compared to Twitter and Threads.

    I think the people working on BlueSky are earnestly building a product that fills the gap Mastodon leaves by having incredibly bad moderation tools.

    My concerns over their crypto funding and no clear plan of sustainability is keeping me away from the platform for now, but I think I would like it when this gets resolved.

  2. Tried being nice to tablet users with the new Claw UI then promptly forgot to add the navigation rail to it before shipping so they just can't access their saved posts :blobHelp:

  3. Seems like the AndroidDev community has started congregating on BlueSky now, bit of a shame but I suppose it was inevitable.

  4. @zkat doubling down by saying that this post wasn't anti-union is Some Shit.

  5. @neil @gnome reading that thread is making me reconsider using GNOME altogether if these are the people building it.

  6. @shinmera I've had this on an older phone, it ended up being a problem with the earthing in one specific outlet that was causing current to kinda "leak" to the phone's metallic shell and mess with the touchscreen.

    Might be worth trying a different outlet to rule it out.

  7. Finally managed to find a workaround for the #RustLang problem I was having with `cargo publish` picking up files from my gitignore-d `.direnv` directory and complaining about them being uncommitted.

    This was the result of cascading surprises: setting `package.includes` causes gitignore to no longer be considered, and `"README.md"` in `package.includes` actually works like `"**/README.md"`' and picks up the READMEs from the repositories in `.direnv/flake-inputs/`.

  8. @shinmera I'm glad I saw this, did not know of Shaun but I already like him!

    The fact that this is how I found out that bitching about Hephaestus' wheelchair was A Thing tells me that I'm keeping good company online these days.

  9. In less mentally taxing news the new #KendrickLamar album is a banger

  10. I can't put into words how I feel when attending the weddings of friends who I've known since before I was an adult. It's a weird mix of pride and happiness but also some sadness and regret about neglecting my own personal life and not having anyone to share it with.

    Maybe I'll grow to change that someday, maybe I'll come to realise that I've been isolated out of choice and not neglect. That's what I have a therapist for I suppose :D

  11. I don't know how I've managed this, but my PC's #Nix installation is no longer able to do network operations and always fails with a cURL error "Failed to open/read local data from file/application". Heavily regretting my choice to prioritise a clean systemd-boot screen over having older generations I could restore to.

    Edit: passing `-vvvvv` to Nix revealed this was actually a cURL regression that was being misreported by Nix github.com/curl/curl/issues/15

  12. Every time I think #ArcaneS2 has peaked the show just hits a new high. Act 2 is incredible and I cannot wait for next week

  13. The usual round of broken extensions after every major GNOME release makes me realize that nearly all of my interactions with the DE rely on stuff GNOME doesn't have. Maybe I don't really like GNOME after all...

  14. @lehtimaeki Even without the Elon 🤢 mention this is just so cringe I would not wanna reply anyway

  15. @shinmera I also got this templated garbage about one of my projects which this person had indexed a week after I had officially archived it, truly genius level intellect.

  16. @AzulCrescent Specifying my age on my website is the only thing that has allowed me to remember it 😅

  17. @JenJen I've had a great experience with Porkbun in the past 2-3 years. Namecheap was also okay when I last tried them 5-6 years ago.
