@dfuchslin 👎 iTerm2… Fortunately, it does not seem enabled unless an API key is added.

A Korean restaurant added beef to one of the dishes I ordered thinking I had made a mistake in not ordering any dishes with meat at dinner. 🤦

Lufthansa once again did not have functioning inflight Wi-Fi, so I finally listened to “Dolly Parton’s America.”

She truly is an amazing person. I aspire to her level of reconciliation.

What level Marriott Bonvoy status gets me a room without tiny lights or panels glowing at night?

Power outlets that support the weight of a wall wart?

How about for a tv with motion smoothing and color modifications disabled?

I didn’t bring enough duct tape to cover all the lights in my room AND hold my laptop power in the socket.

After difficulty finding cafes with plant-based milk options around my hotel, I reluctantly bought coffee from Starbucks in Seoul.

The catch: Unlike with the cow tit milk orders, they served my iced latte in separate cups I had to pour together. 3 times now. I asked why twice, but got non-answers.

I will forever remember Korea bringing the fajita experience to vegan lattes.

(Spare me Reply Guy boilerplate disclaimer: I dislike Starbucks’s anti-union stance and its burnt coffee taste.)

@DemocracyMattersALot I misread this as Trump’s “obit” and got wound up for a moment. 😔

What does “you have to respect their culture” mean in practice when given as a reply to my commentary on South Korea not having same-sex rights and not permitting most ADHD medication?

Genuinely asking since this has been said to me multiple times.

I must follow their laws as a tourist, obviously. I’m rambling into an online abyss, not protesting outside an embassy or kissing my husband in public.

🤠 Please stop building Wild West JSON APIs.

The JSON:API specification exists, is a trivial amount more effort to implement, and makes using a Web API sooo much easier.

If you’re not queer and protesting the administration by graduation, you didn’t get the full Emerson College experience. Glad to see some things don’t change. “Expression necessary to evolution” since 1880.

Today in “community servers were a mistake”: I got temporarily banned from mastodon dot green for this gif, so I no longer recommend it as a community server.

I really, really wish Mastodon supported importing old posts from an old community server and the old community server responding with HTTP 308 Permanent Redirect for old posts to their new URL because .

Some men with mustaches look so handsome with them, it’d be wrong for them to be clean shaven.

But 99% of men with mustaches look like a flailing soul search for masculinity.

I was curious about what percentage of people visiting my site had set preferences for light/dark mode, reduced motion, or increased contrast. I also wanted to know what percentage had HDR support.

I figured out how to do that custom tracking with @plausible and wrote a tutorial.

Apparently my husband and I are so obviously gay a South Korean taxi driver felt the need to put on praise & worship music when we got in.

BankID. Debattartikel om detta står att läsa i Dagens nyheter. https://www.dn.se/debatt/sluta-utnyttja-bank-id-som-huvudnyckel-till-alla-las/ #bankid #säkerhet #dfri @dfri

@hehemrin @dfri Claes’s argument that fraud would be reduced by using BankID less is not convincing. The alternative to BankID would be a password in most cases. Most people still reuse passwords, don’t use password managers, and don't use MFA on their email account that can be used for password resets. Passkeys might save humanity from that if Apple and Google stop inhibiting them, but the same authentication fatigue attributed as a BankID weakness applies equally to Passkeys. 🤔

Fast food restaurants now seem to have protein-rich, plant-based options more reliably than other dining options in European airports. I’ve rarely had to eat my emergency vegan bars when traveling the last 2 years.

Jeremiah, to ADHD
@Jeremiah@alpaca.gold avatar

The hostility of governments towards tourists with ADHD who just want to take their medication is a true test of the effectiveness of that medication.

Within the EU, I must fill out a form with my pharmacist for them to file for each trip beyond Sverige’s border.

For my trip to Korea, I must download 2 Word docs from a website in Korean, submit a copy of my passport, flight information, notarized English translation of my Swedish prescription, and email it all 10 days before travel.

A man aggressively approaches me as I enter the South Korean hotel pool area. “You must wear a swim cap!”

“Oh ok. Sorry. It’s not common where I’m from.”

“Buy one at the desk upstairs.”

“What about his chest hair? [gestures to shirtless husband] It’s longer than most of the hair on my head.”

[husband rolls eyes at me]
