I spent a considerable amount of time in WiFi captive portals. #ama

@MoritzGiessmann Did Firefox's portal detection kick in? If so, did it help you? If not, do you know why?

MoritzGiessmann,
@MoritzGiessmann@mastodon.social avatar

@freddy I did not use Firefox. On iPhone it’s a Safari web view I guess and the same on MacOS I guess?

#AMA so I can build an FAQ and make myself feel cool

@jens@social.finkhaeuser.de avatar

Maybe it's just me, hut whenever I see someone invite for an #AMA, I feel compelled to ask only stupid stuff.

Anyway, I won't be answering immediately as we have afternoon plans, but #AskMeAnything. I will respond before noon tomorrow CET.

@zdl As far as I know, none. It could explain a lot about my life.

I've always wanted to do an on , but I don't trust the app, so AMA here? ☺️💙

@maleandroids what don’t you trust about the NGL app? (I’ve used it once, to ask a question, but never as the AMA-er)

@mattferrell@mastodon.social avatar

For a future episode of my podcast, Still TBD, I'd like to do an Ask Me Anything. Can be about my smart home, how we produce the videos, tech questions, etc. If you have any questions for me and/or my brother, ask away here!

beuhlig,

@mattferrell do you think matter has lived up to the hype so far, or does it have a way to go?

jynersolives,
@jynersolives@mastodon.social avatar

Not sure if this works well on Mastodon but on and let's see how this goes (also, feel free to copy!).

BurritoSommelier,

@jynersolives why didn’t the eagles just fly the emperor into the reactor shaft?

jbwharris,
@jbwharris@mstdn.ca avatar

@jynersolives I found I was fascinated by the concept of it. I think George Lucas spent a lot of mental energy trying to manufacture a twist on par with the Luke/Vader reveal, and Jar Jar was it. He just overplayed his hand. He thought Jar Jar was going to be beloved as the first CGI character, but the audience hated him. I envisioned a Kaiser Sozé moment type reveal that never came.

SrRochardBunson,

OK so please could I play 15-20 minutes of your months of experimentation to play on the climate next week?

screwtape,
@screwtape@mastodon.sdf.org avatar

@SrRochardBunson and you could join sdf commode chat
(are you on sdf.org ? If you need to make an account first, please let me know the name)
the live chat is normally pretty interesting, definitely anything clever I say was me reading from everyone. I would be very interested to learn more about you and music and your collaboration.
(Other than the climate crisis, we also do some kind of sm0lnet and LISP community news basically)

😡🍔 Der Wutburger – Die neue Fast-Food-Kette

Neben dem klassischen Wutburger (mit extra Jalapeño und Habanero-Sauce) gibt es noch den Hutburger (schwarzes Bun oben, rohes rotes Patty, gelbes Bun unten).

Alle Produkte gibt es auch in Alufolie eingepackt zum Mitnehmen, oder wie wir es nennen: „mit Verschwörung“.

sciloqi,

@MoritzGiessmann Pizza muss es auch geben, die sog. Flat-Earther!

@MoritzGiessmann siehe Auch: Der Spießburger (mit Dönerfleisch), der Besorgte Burger, und der Reichsburger (nur unter Vorlage des Personalausweises)

“Nones" (atheists, agnostics, or nothing in particular) comprise 30% or more of the adult population in the United States and Canada.

We're launching a special project with AP and RNS to look at their growths, beliefs and nonbeliefs.

Bring your questions to an on (or comment here and I'll bring the question to reddit)

"If you could gain the power to shift into any three animals and back to your present form, which three?"
Tux Cat, Bat, Penguin.
At that point I would then assume other animals would be possible. Try for Wolf, Horse and Orca next.

Tomorrow I get to talk to kids about all the things people do wrong when they drive -- both the mistakes they make and the laws they break.

thecalchemist,

Hi, I’m Cal! Ask me about:

  1. Snails and other gastropods
  2. Sourdough starters and bread baking
  3. Succulents and home gardening
  4. Crohn’s disease, IBD, and other chronic illnesses and disabilities
  5. Comics, especially manga. (Feel free to ask about animation as well!)

DaWolfBearJedi,

@thecalchemist how do you get sourdough bread to be all fluffy at high altitude? Actually all my baking comes out so dense because the bubbles pop before they fully bake.

thecalchemist,

@DaWolfBearJedi try doing a shorter prove/ferment! Using a tiny bit more water might help too but be careful
