Got a 4.5 mile bike ride in this morning in 30 minutes. Not great but not terrible.

“So many feed readers, so many bizarre behaviors”

https://rachelbythebay.com/w/2024/05/27/feed/

> It's been well over a year since I started serving 429s to clients which are hitting the feed too often. Since then, much has happened, and most of it is generally good news.

Like I’ve said too many times: most software projects fail outright, those that don’t are largely broken, and those that aren’t outright broken are buggy as hell. Much of dev is repair and salvage.

@baldur All one really need know about the #RSS spec to really get a flavor for how well thought out it is, is that it calls for RFC 822 for formatting timestamps.

I love the democratizing principles behind RSS, but it’s a technical omnishambles.

You know how there’s a big barrel where you can empty your water bottle before you go through airport security?

Texas has the same thing, but it’s for guns.

PSA: Ritual zero-proof whiskey is godawful. Pour some liquid smoke into some apple cider vinegar, and save yourself the $35.

@collinsworth The Ritual gin has the amazing property that it can ruin anything it is mixed with. The fauxquila, however is kind of interesting, and the amaro is passable.

However, Ritual will spam the ever-loving tar out of you if they ever obtain your particulars.

"The Hunt for Gollum"? I mean he fell into a volcano which then blew up. I'm fairly sure that hunt will be rather fruitless.

Hurl is a language based on exception handling. It’s a real shame that it isn’t tail recursive though.

@anthrocypher The fallacy at work here is: because programming languages are finite and simple, the behavior of programs must be finite and predictable.

of course my car decides to start throwing Engine Malfunction messages and randomly going into limp mode on the Sunday immediately before the bank holiday Monday when I'm meant to be driving to EMF, meaning I can't get it to a mechanic for diagnostics let alone a repair in time.

OBD-II scanner shows nothing at all, inbuilt test mode shows two generic DTC codes that provide no useful information other than it's maybe a sensor doing something wrong.

ffs.

@gsuberland perhaps removing and replacing the gas cap fixed it.

One of my smoke alarms went off at 5am. I got up and checked around, no smoke smell and the other alarm was chill. There's a button to stop the alarm but it would start up again in a minute. I was on the verge of flipping the other switch that permanently disables it when it stopped. Guess it sensed my murderous intent.

jimfl,
@jimfl@hachyderm.io avatar

@jef This happened to me a while back. When I inspected the alarm, a spider crawled out of it. A couple of internets later, I learned that spiders can, in fact, set off fire alarms.

Stop using Social Media for News, RSS is Much Better!

RSS is one place for you to quickly sift through numerous sources of news quickly and efficiently. It’s up to you to decide what feeds to add – as many or as few as you want.
