@evacide that feature has abuse written all over it. WTF.
They already had some sort of history feature in Win 10. Scared the crap out of me when I ran into it.
I guess it's one more thing to switch off on a Windows box.
It's starting to become a long list...

During lunch a friend mentioned that you can just supply a HTTP URL to vim on the command line and it would use curl to download that resource and allow you to edit the content. I jokingly asked whether if you enter :w it would then issue a HTTP POST back to the origin which is of course ridiculous.

It issues a PUT

@n3wjack@mastodon.social avatar

@conorh I didn't know about the PUT.
That means you can use vim as an editor to edit data in a REST API though. 🤯

@reillypascal LogiOptions is kind of lame anyway. I only use it to set the speed of my mouse faster than Windows does. But now that it starts installing AI shit in the background, without mentioning it. That's really lame.

I know, I know we all keep harping on how bad search has gotten.

Internet search went from miraculous to worse than trash almost instantly.

But for real tho... how are we supposed to find stuff now?

@elsemusic @limebar @flockofnazguls Looks like it's also Bing on the backend, just like DDG.

n3wjack,
@n3wjack@mastodon.social avatar

@puffer @elsemusic @limebar @flockofnazguls It does now.
Both are Bing it seems.

An American friend of mine thinks beans on toast is disgusting. So to all none Brits (as we find it delicious)…is it disgusting to you?

Side note - I find it astonishing that someone from the country that invented “cheese in a can” can find this “dish” disgusting. 😂

@kev Never heard of this abomination. Is this for breakfast?
I think it'll have a 🥐 instead.

teens these days I cannot fucking believe the kinds of music they will be listening. stupid goddamm bleep bloop music. stupid freaking snort snort honk farm animal music. goddamm kids these days. they only listen to freaking pig albums nowadays . the goddamn kids. all they like is albums of music made exclusively from field recordings of a single pig over the course of its lifespan, including post mortem. cant stand the kids these days with their stupid high concept electronic music and that

You know, I really like to just follow people back on the fedi, but when I see they are American I really hesitate because I don't want my feed to turn into the shitshow that country is at the moment. 😭
I made that mistake with the bird site, and I do not want that again. So sorry if I don't follow you back USians, it's not you, it's your country. 😔

@GothAndy That's true, but it's also the politics and racism and shootings etc etc etc.
I know it's there, but I don't want to read about it every day.

Does anyone have an idea why Bing refuses to index my site, while other search engines like Google or Yandex don't have any issues doing so?
Bing webmaster tools tell me only vague general reasons why it wouldn't work, and none of them are valid.

n3wjack,
@n3wjack@mastodon.social avatar

@setto yeah, that's how I found out. I couldn't search my own site on ddg.
It's kinda ironic. They want people to stop using Google, but their webmaster tools suck ass. 🤷‍♂️

@thomasfuchs@hachyderm.io avatar

As a European I can assure you that is for many Europeans the most political thing they do all year.

It’s a proxy for many a historical rivalry and friendship between countries; and also always reflects current events.

The claim it’s “apolitical” is laughable.

The implosion they’re experiencing is their own fault.

n3wjack,
@n3wjack@mastodon.social avatar

@ln0 @thomasfuchs I'm curious how many points Israel is going to get. It's never about the song, but it has always been political. Neighbours always give points to each other, countries in trouble get sympathy points. I wonder how it's going to be now.

@ln0 @thomasfuchs A good way to end Eurovision I guess.

growing up, i was always attracted to a certain madness, and it was attracted to me. yet, i would characterize myself as "tame" compared to some of the people i associated with.

Julian Cope has always been an off-putting but interesting character. he seems like a genuine yet borderline-psychopathic person who channels a violent madness into all his work; writing, music, or otherwise. this attracts me, but none of his #music has really clicked with me yet.
