Hey cool, Eurovision is Saturday? Excellent! Only a few days until I get to like the French song and it doesn’t win, again! Gonna get some beers In and live post it on here, I reckon.

New Coming up very very soon.. and I don’t have £170 to throw at a TV license right now, certainly not for effectively one show.

The bizarre thing is that if I were inclined to pirate it I'd get in less trouble than watching it on iPlayer without a license.

I'll probably just catch it at a friend's place maybe.. shall see. I'll be sad to be missing what looks like a fun new series of it.

With coming up, I'm contemplating a Star Wars rewatch. I'm curious what order you consider is the ideal order to be watching them in.

Being able to pay LinkedIn to allow you to spam people's direct messages should be illegal.

My DMs are an absolute shambles and riddled with grifters like a dog with fleas.

Ok, as broken as youtube is on a low res screen, it's even more unusable on a high res screen, as the "includes payed promotion" banner that only appears once your cursor is hovering over the video thumbnail, is nearly as big as the video thumbnail, and takes you to a useless help page instead of the video

@dec_hl would this coexist with Win3.1 ? It'd be a great way to extract files if so e.g. by sharing the C drive...

falken,
@falken@qoto.org avatar

@dec_hl ah. Was hoping it'd be better than having to FTP my Newton backups

falken,
@falken@qoto.org avatar

@dec_hl Ideally it'd not require anything special on the modern machine. Running an FTP server on it is one thing. SMB is out becuase modern systems wont talk old style encryption. EtherDFS would work, but needs it's own special server.
Open to more ideas ;)

What Mastodon clients are people using on Android?

Ive been using mobile Web interface for the longest time and it's fine, but wanted an app with multi account support to help with bot wrangling.

Tusky is good, but it doesn't support long press on links for sharing and it's bugging me.

Why do marketing people get so obsessed about time someone spends on a page (with the assumption that longer=better because 'engagement')? Good IA should mean users find what they want quickly; good UX means quick ordering. Good copywriting means quick comprehension, doesn't it?
