👀😭 #takahē about the death of the internet as we knew it
"You want to order from a local restaurant, but you need to download a third-party delivery app, even though you plan to pick it up yourself. The prices and menu on the app are different to what you saw in the window. When you download a second app the prices are different again. You ring the restaurant directly and it says the number is no longer in service. You go to the restaurant and order in person. You mention that their website has the wrong number and the woman behind the counter says they have to contact the company who designed the site for changes, which will cost them, but most people just order through an app anyway.
You want to watch the trailer for an upcoming movie on YouTube but you first have to sit through an ad. Then you sit through a preview for the trailer itself. Then you watch the trailer, which is literally another ad. When it ends, it cues up a new trailer, with a new ad at the start of it.
The first page of Google results are links to pages that have scraped other pages for information from other pages that have been scraped for information. All the sources seem to link back to one another. There is no origin. The photos on the page look weird. The hands are disfigured. There is no image credit."
My #Fediverse viewer now supports any server type (as long as the server's APIs are correctly configured)!
Find out if a server is right for you based on custom emojis, character limit, users, translation, and more.
To be fair, I hadn't heard of the takahē until last year when I found out about the Fediverse project that named itself after the bird, which also plugs the Takahē Recovery Programme
"That streak of colour was the #Takahē: a large, #FlightlessBird, that was believed for decades to be extinct. Eighteen of the birds were released in the #LakeWhakatipu Waimāori valley, an alpine area of #NewZealand’s South Island last week, on to slopes they had not been seen roaming for about 100 years."
There’s a new wild population of #takahe in NZ! With Ngāi Tahu and supported by Fulton Hogan we’ve released 18 takahē to the Greenstone Valley near Queenstown - a site where they haven’t lived for over a century. Here’s the last pair heading off to their new home. #conservation
We plan to increase the #takahe population in the Greenstone to about 40 individuals over the next year. We’ll still need more sites! Read more here: https://t.co/ZaWXjNoIoh#conservation 📸 Deidre Vercoe
It's a "language support" update: new post language settings, translation, etc.
Also, if you're using the Electron build, update to the last one (1.7.0) and get spellchecker synchronization when you change the language in the post editor!
Ah j'aimerais bien pouvoir la coder mais je crains fort ne pas savoir par où commencer...
C'est juste que j'ai quelques notions élémentaires de programmation qui me font dire que les raccourcis me semblent quelque chose d'assez indépendant du reste, que l'on peut faire sans avoir à tripatouiller toute la base de code - ça ne veut pas dire que je sais faire.
Il ne suffit pas de rajouter le hotkey, il faut aussi le relier à l'UI et à l'état de l'application. Donc un peu de travail dans le codebase quand même, comme toute autre fonctionnalité. 😉
Ceci dit, si tu a du temps sur les bras et que ça t'intéresse, je peux te donner des ressources pour apprendre Angular. Si tu débute complet en web, je peux aussi te pointer des cours en HTML/CSS. Et t'aider dans le codebase de Sengi ensuite.
@futzle Hello, thanks for your article about Takahē, would you say it's stable and complete enough for a daily use yet ?
The possibility to have hastag timelines is intresting, and just what I miss from other lightweight activitypub servers webui like rebased/pleroma.
I haven't found instances open to registration to give it a try ? https://www.icemoonprison.com/blog/?p=839 #takahe#fediverse
@HaruEb My pleasure! :shinx_hype: I think it might be worth editing your post to remove the Calckey tag and add the Hajkey Iceshrimp and Firefish tags (yeah it's a lot perhaps just Iceshrimp & Firefish). Hopefully the edit will federate widely and new folks moving over will find your post in those tags.
