Delete and redraft (ugh) is a pretty bad way to retract a post, because now your timeline is just context free "deleted this" posts. It's okay to skip the redraft part.

The rust community needs to build a containment field to keep the weirdo advocates from escaping into the wild. They're not sending their best.

Somebody created a post with a hashtag of #&#60 and I can't view it because the url is not escaped properly. Crisis on the honknet.

Meme stonks? In this economy?

Posting images inline in posts is another low effort way to keep the thundering elephant herd from loading them all at once.

I need to add some whoop whoop danger css to necro threads. I don't understand what people are even doing replying to this decrepit garbage.

Make sure you add the -browser, otherwise some shitty game that crashes your system is installed. DO NOT RUN THIS GAME! This is not a joke.

Did you know: the term aurora borealis was coined by Galileo in 1619, which means people before that time couldn't see them, because it's not possible to see things you don't have a word for.

To some extent, I get that people think a $1500 device should be able to run macOS. But by that logic, shouldn't you be happy you can buy a device that can run macOS for $1000 (or $700)? If the overpriced device doesn't do what you want, buy the cheaper device that does. Win fucking win.

Another practical life tip brought to you by the honk living channel.

Instead of making a new federated stack overflow, why don't we simply add a Q&A feature to the mastodon fork?

The term "torment nexus" is pretty rapidly being enshittified into meaning anything that's mildly annoying.

Went to the grocery store, had the torment nexus beep at me during checkout because my lettuce shifted after I placed it on the scale.

What in tarnation is this beer coaster?

Hmm, so if you mute a thread, that should also mute quotes of that thread, no? Increasingly complicated database queries.

This wouldn't be a problem if mastodont set the context property to reference the existing thread, but obviously the dont don't.

lol, people think the I don't consent to the NSA reading my posts Facebook copy pasta is going to work on stack overflow.

So, like, how many of the people mad about the iPad ad were in the market for a new iPad anyway?

Hey team, as a reminder, we've got the mastodon fork standup tomorrow. Nothing formal, just a quick status update. The big thinkers up top are excited to see their vision being built.

I've started reading The Peripheral, having seen the TV series, and at least the first few chapters are a very difficult read. Or maybe I've just become a very lazy reader.

Despite some familiarity with the setting of the chapters with Wilf's viewpoint, they are completely inscrutable. (I'm aware the show is not a clone of the book.) Not sure I'm qualified to give Gibson writing advice, but I think he may have the show don't tell slider turned up too high. Anyway, going to keep reading until I get to the good parts.

Among other oddities, nodebb also sends out Announce activities without an "id" property.

People rag on HN and its moderation, sometimes justly, but I really miss the original title rule whenever I'm stuck browsing some other forum where every other link is something like "Do you guys think this is creepy?" with no indication of what it is.

Petitioning the European Commission to declare mastodon a DMA gatekeeper so they're forced to merge all my pull requests.
