"I can imagine the dev team for this in 2025. Just two senior devs who hate each other yet have worked on only this for the past 20 years in a forgotten corner,”
Lol.
I mean.. if you only have 50k users - all of them seniors who complained when little Billy moved their Netscape […]

Holy crap - I remember when I used to think Nenshi was a potential for federal leader. He _changed_ man, he changed.

[asshole #jordanpeterson saying dumb shit, no lobsters]
The #facebook ++ algorithm clearly picked up on my utter disdain and revulsion of #jordanpeterson so in true form, decided that I need to see more of his bullshit.

@simonzerafa @bagder and is there a whitepaper out there that discusses TTL and response timeout considerations when your roundtrip delay is measured in minutes/hours?
@bagder
wait, curl on a bus?
Oh for.. you mean the bus gets route/stop/narration updates dynamically? fsck me.
brb, off to hack my local bus stop.
@jschauma
cvs.. now there's a command name I have not heard from in a loong time...
Actually that's the one thing I miss from rcs/cvs days tha I wish were in git - the `$Id$` and `$Log$` macros, keeping the revision history IN the source itself, that would be handy for scripts and whatnot that […]
Do any of these CMS and online-ad platform/network #productmanagers realize that if they were to just go back to unobtrusive only-static-image ads embedded in the html of the page itself I would fucking put eyeballs on those? But noooo, we gotta have modal popups and pay-gates and […]

No, my #adblocker is preventing your #ADs from loading. The fact that the REST of your page refuses to load if the ads dont load, well that sounds like a YOU problem.

For sure, no need for a laptop if your phone IS your mobile computer. For a vast majority of us, 90% of what we do is browser based anyways, so very excited for this to be coming back.
You never would have been able to try this on BB at the time - we had a micro-usb dock with […]
Cool - this #meeting could have been the #email I sent a month ago where I outlined the #problem, the alternative #solutions and my (as #sme) recommended solution, which was agreed to be the optimal solution.
#outlook doesn't need "email reactions" it needs "I agree with your […]
New @Vivaldi release on mobile. Finally we have 2 level tab stacks on iOS and we are putting significant efforts into desktop mode on Android. I am very excited about that. The idea that you can just connect your phone to a dock with keyboard, screen and mouse and have a fully working computer […]

> The idea that you can just connect your phone to a dock with keyboard, screen and mouse and have a fully working computer is great!
Sigh - we had this at Blackberry 16 yrs ago but it was abandoned - along with our Roku/WDLive/AppleTV killer - as not a core initiative (right […]
@beeps oh nice! I like the "if you add your site, you have to add two others!" thing

I've been playing #arcradiers since launch on both #ps5 and an 8 yr old #gtx1080 #PC. I can't tell much difference visually between the two, but on my PC I'm CPU (not GPU) bound to about 40 fps, which I can live with.

Good luck Europe, I hope #ChatControl gets defeated. Unlikely, but fingers crossed.
Saw #GaryNuman last night at The #Concert Hall in #Toronto - excellent show, great venue; was one of those shows where the #music was #loud but not so loud you walked out with a headache or your ears ringing. Also #generaladmission but there are seats upstairs in the balcony, which as an old […]

A super hottie at the club back in the day invited me back to their place to _"fix their computer."_
I declined - I had leant my toolkit to a friend and didn't have my backup drive on me (important to prevent data loss) and suggested […]

Is this related to chad AT mstdn.ca? I saw something from him this am an had no idea what that was about (am not local to YEG). Is it this?

A message especially for my Canadian male followers out there today, but it applies to all.
If you see a story from a woman calling out the behaviour of a man, believe them. Yes, believe them over the 'bro’, especially when there are multiple […]

Going hungry - so Hot Right Now
So, im giving `syncthing` a try because there's an official-ish android app fork for it, and its otherwise #FOSS on desktop (#linux at least). And I know that I could self-host my own discovery and pairing relays. Oh and the last de-#enshittification task on my journey to #selfhost emancipation […]
or, I could use something that is designed to do this natively.
When I daily drove Windows, I used the `AirDroid` desktop and mobile clients. It worked great but the discovery, pairing and sync go through THEIR infrastructure. ANd its not free.

Well, I had to give up on the #rsync approach - rsync over #MTP seemed to have issues with copying some file metadata that rsync would need to handle incremental updates. Subsequent rsyncs would re-copy _everything_. Boo.
Likewise using […]
omg switching to #linux a year ago was such a good idea. I #jmtpfs mounted my new #android phone via #USB and now I'm #rsync ing my #mp3 collection to it.
Since its all curated into #folders Im using the awesome `Folder Player`.
Its #Easter coming soon, and while I don't go in for any of the #religious stuff, I do mark the return of easter candy. In particular #LauraSecord eggs.
For the non-#Canadians, these are like #Cadbury #CreamEggs except 10x better and they come in adult sizes.
The default size is 300g, so […]
