The staff on this @Lufthansa flight has never seen anything like this. JHB ATC has lost the flight plan. Been sitting on the tarmac for 90 min. Need also to route around the Niger airspace so 10 hour flight will be 13-14 hours with delays. Folks are restless. But we chillin. Ya gotta roll with these things. We are tired but we are safe. If we sleep in Germany and make it home a day or two later, we can’t complain, we are together.

@shanselman Bummer, I would imagine you're entitled to some compensation after landing. In the EU for long hauls, it's at least around 600€, better get informed.

Happened to me a few years back when flying from London to Seoul. I reached them out via social media and British Airways wired me the compensation in a matter of days. Great service.

Do your server a favor and optimize the images you upload to save storage. I do this manually using https://imagecompressor.com -- but I wonder if anyone has a better way so I don't have to upload to & download from another system everytime?

@ayo For one time thing (not batch) I use https://squoosh.app/ which happens all in your browser

For batch I use this one (or a variant if I don't need resize) https://ricard.dev/gists/2022-12-14/

I updated to Mastodon 4.1.5 but still not seeing the new preview cards. Guess I made a mistake somewhere πŸ˜„

@ayo was it part of 4.1.5?

Didn't see that in the changelog

@ayo They run the nightly build, or so the footer says :blobcatgiggle:

Social media is fucking us all up. I’d love to go back to the days of forums, where there was no popularity contests, or β€œinfluencers”.

@kev Yes, please! I've found Mastodon to be a middle ground from you know the birdsite or Instagram.

So I'm quite content with Mastodon but granted I do miss the forums.

Review: Jigokuraku (Season 1)

I expected something different, the animation is great but skyrockets in terms of fantasy…

Is there a way to automatically reject video assets from remote servers?

From time to time ffmpeg will go crazy processing files and CPU/RAM will go through the roof for hours.

@moira Yeah I don't know where the videos come from, it seems limit is both image and video.

@ayo Have not even bought it yet, I was waiting for full reviews and price drop πŸ’°

Had no hurry since the new Zelda has kept me busy :zelda_link:

I'm not very keen into buying specially since Path of Exile 2 is being released this month :ablobcatbongo:

Some really nice updates in the official @Mastodon android app.

@stefan @Mastodon I really need custom lists to start using it. Can't go from desktop advanced view to this one πŸ₯²

Quite disappointed with this new season that just aired.

For me what made it great was the dystopian technology futures it presented. This is season is everything but that.

Only the first episode follows what I expected and wanted to see. The rest were simply not but a different show entirely. I don't understand. Just name it something else. Why use the franchise like that.

Your thoughts?

ricard,
@ricard@ricard.social avatar

@ayo I would recommend you watching the first one, which has the most tech in it.

The rest, no tech involved.

    What options do I have on to have the advanced multi-column layout? As I do on desktop web?

    • has a max number of columns. It's good but I want more columns.
    • The official Mastodon app for Android doesn't even have custom columns πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ
    • The mobile view of the PWA doesn't show custom columns either :blobcat_sadlife:

    The only ugly workaround is to use "Desktop View" while on the PWA to get the desktop advanced view and pinch to zoom :blobcatnotlikethis:

    I've just released v5.0.0 of FediFetcher

    This release brings no new features, but simplifies and unifies configuration of it: Instead of a large list of command line flags / environment variables, FediFetcher is now configured using a JSON file.

    You don't need to update to this version immediately, but if you are running FediFetcher as a GitHub Action, you'll need to update and create a JSON file with options eventually, as configuration through Environment variables will no longer be possible going forward.

    THIS IS A BREAKING CHANGE, so please read the release notes for detailed instructions, and let me know if you have any questions.

    https://github.com/nanos/FediFetcher/releases/tag/v5.0.0

    @michael Excellent! Tried to migrate, didn't work. Opened an issue https://github.com/nanos/FediFetcher/issues/52

    @michael Ah, good point.

    The device needs to drop to around 1.500$ to make it remotely considerable for the rest of the mortals.

    In any case I want to see where this is headed and hopefully how they iterate the concept.
