  1. Haven't been able to add vids to GoToSocial for a while now... The joys of self hosting. #SelfHosting #Argh #Confusion

  2. Ai että lämmittää mieltä nämä uutisten oikeaoppiset suomenkieliset ilmaisut, kuten "nyt suuri osa Etelä-Koreasta on asetettu hellevaroituksen alle". Niin että otettiin suuri osa Etelä-Koreaa ja asetettiin se tuohon hellevaroitus-kyltin alle? Vaiko ettäkö suureen osaan Etelä-Koreaa on annettu hellevaroitus? #suomenkieli #rappio #argh

  3. Today's emotional roller coaster:

    New driver for the hardware I need for the platform I like. 🤩
    It doesn't work with my hardware. 😐️
    I look into the source - it's vibe coded. 😩
    Against my better judgement, I keep looking. 🤔 ... 🧐
    I found the bug! (Well... _A_ bug...) 😤
    Now I have to figure out how to rebuild everything... 😭

    Like I needed a new project...

  4. Moni varmaan tuntee sen hitaimman kassajonon kirouksen, mutta sillä on muitakin ilmenemismuotoja. Istuin kummalle puolelle hyvänsä bussissa, ratikassa tai metrossa, sille puolelle paistaa kuumina päivinä aina aurinko. Jos ei paistanut ennen kuin astuin kyytiin, sen jälkeen todellakin paistaa. Ja vaikka vaihtaisin puolta, se aurinko seuraa perässä. Varmaan seuraavaksi alkaa paistaa siellä metrotunnelissakin, sellainen kohdevaloaurinko, vain muhun. #kirous #argh

  5. In case this helps anyone in our modern dystopia of the unsearchable web...

    I'd been having a problem with Wikipedia; every page load seemed to reset view preferences to the worst default possible, with the view controls and main menu expanded in sidebars. Close them, click a link, they come back. Annoying as hell.

    I searched for solutions and didn't find any that worked, but I found others having the same problem (and old solutions that maybe worked for someone, but not me).

    What actually fixed the problem: deleting all cookies and local storage for the Wikipedia domain. Next visit, closed those two bits of the sidebars, and now it's properly remembering my choices.

  6. CW: Germany, Berlin, Heatwave

    Berliner Bäder: We have big halls with huge pools of cool water, where people can swim.
    Also Berliner Bäder: You know what? Lets keep most of them closed for the hottest days of they year. How funny that would be?

  7. the problem is that #bigmoney #bank #finance #lobbyism destroyed #democracy and it is really not hard for foreign actors to double down on that #germany #corruption #cdu #csu #merz #reiche #argh #endstage #capitalism will end in #fascism, the point is: there is really no need for foreign intervention, it will collapse all by itself as #capitalism usually does, but of course foreign influence can speed that even up

  8. Luke Willson is the pimple on the ass of the #CFL.

    It was bad enough when they gave him multiple sideline segments every game last year - at least I could mute the TV during his segments. And yes, I absolutely did that.

    This year they have him in the booth as a colour commentator. I can't easily mute that.

    #TSN, I don't know how you managed to do it, but you're making me pine for the days of having Paul LaPolice in the booth. I didn't think that would be possible. Hell, I'd take Rod Black as the colour guy over Willson.

  10. Mikä musta aukko Matkahuollon pakettipalveluista on yhtäkkiä tullut? Viimeisen puolentoista vuoden ajan on tullut hyödynnettyä tämän keräilyharrastuksen tiimoilta, ja kaikki on sujunut hyvin. Nyt sitten paketti katoaa kuin tuhka tuuleen, ja ilmeisesti kaikilla muillakin. Aspaan ei saa yhteyttä, tai jos on hyvä säkä, 45 min jonotus voi riittää. Tässä sitä nyt sitten odotellaan lisätietoa, jota sitäkään ei muiden kokemusten perusteella tule. Pitikö nyt postin lisäksi mennä tämäkin paskomaan. #argh

  11. Is this a pattern for #AI #chatBot|s?
    They seem to be eager to access as many external information sources. But when it comes to using the conversations somewhere else, they are overly protective. MS #SolpPilot has no expert conversation function. And even with #AtlassianRovo I can’t link to a conversation from a Jura issue.

  12. The desire to explore Subnautica 2 (now in early access) is warring with the desire to generate assembly from IR now that register allocation is happening.

  13. #FDroid, home to thousands of free and #opensource Android apps, calls Google's developer verification an "existential threat." An estimated 85% of F-Droid apps could face distribution issues because their developers signed through F-Droid, not through Google. @keepandroidopen #KeepAndroidOpen keepandroidopen.org #argh #google #android #evil #grapheneos

  14. That moment when you realise that the bottom bracket you bought for your replacement group set is the wrong width. After installing it. And there are half a dozen alternatives spanning about 8 mm difference…. # cycling #argh #argh #ARGH

  17. Search Engine Roundtable: Google Tests Removing Dates From Articles In Discover Feed. “Google is testing removing the dates from the articles shown in the Google Discover feed. This is a limited test, Google confirmed, to see the impact of removing the date value.” Argh.

  18. @Leader_Post @regina-leader-post-news-Leader_Post

    From the article:

    > Visitors to Regina’s downtown will no longer have the option of digging for change
    > to plug the parking meter.
    >
    > The City of Regina is shifting to digital-only parking payment as of next week,
    > effective Sunday March 1.
    >
    > Downtown meters will no longer accept coins to pay for on-street parking.
    > Instead, residents must pay electronically using the PayByPhone smartphone
    > app, online at PayByPhone.com or by calling 1-888-680-7275.

    "Use this smartphone app" --> requires a smartphone
    "Use this website" --> requires a smartphone
    "Or call this phone number" --> requires a phone

    I do not own a smartphone / cell phone / mobile phone. How the hell am I supposed to pay for downtown parking, which I have to half a dozen times per month?

    "Just get a cell phone" is NOT an acceptable response, FWIW.

  19. Firstly, I am aware that sizing of women's clothing is at *least* this bad.

    I've had two pairs of Keen "Men's Hiking Shoes", specifically their "Targhee" brand.

    I bought the first pair in person, so fitted the size in person. Those claim "EU 44, US 10.5, UK 9.5, CM 28.5"

    When those wore out I ordered a pair of the third version of that shoe in the same UK 9.5 size. After a week it was clear they were too big. My big toes were getting bruised.

    So, I ordered a pair of UK 9 (and eventually gave the 9.5s away, as it seemed too much hassle to sort out a return, especially with having worn them a week of active use).

    Those size 9 claim "EU 43, US 10, UK 9, CM 28", so shorter ? I've measured the internal length, toe-tip to heel, in both, and they both seem to be more or less just 28cm.

    Now the sizing that Keen currently declares says of UK 9: US 10, EU 43, UK 9, CM 27", which seems like it would definitely be too small for me, right?

    The chart is at cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0788 , and as you can see, if I want "something 28cm long internally" I might need either the UK 10 ("CM 27.8") *or* the UK 10.5 or even 11 (CM 28.2 and 28.6).

    How difficult is it to just have *consistent* sizing ? I already know their idea of UK 9.5 can sometimes be UK 9, or vice versa, so how can I trust the sizing at all, other than finding somewhere to buy in person ?
