Departed Humour: User Friendly Defeated

Come along as I travel back in time to 1997 to feature a web comic I call ‘defeated’, that is focused around an Internet service provider company.

@RL_Dane That's great!

Sorry what are you referring to? The share bar or the social links in the footer?

adamsdesk,
@adamsdesk@fosstodon.org avatar

@RL_Dane Ahh yes that is the share bar or social media share buttons. I have them there for convince for those that haven't moved over. It's privacy respecting until you hit the service. I have a post all about it, https://www.adamsdesk.com/posts/create-social-media-buttons/.

adamsdesk,
@adamsdesk@fosstodon.org avatar

@RL_Dane I'm not in favour of these services with exception to email and copy link buttons. Each person is in a different state of transition or perspective and who am I to tell them what to use or not. I can only encourage and provoke thinking about what is better for them to use and society.

Saying this though I have thought about removing them. I'm undecided at this stage.

@tripplehelix That's great! @RL_Dane

@adamsdesk@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix Oh I understand and I block them too. You don't have to explain. Though my social share buttons do not track you until they are used with exception to Email and Copy link of course.

@RL_Dane Well that's good. Since your comment I've been thinking about it quite a bit . To be fair it doesn't seem to align with my audience and therefore I question now why have it. @tripplehelix

adamsdesk,
@adamsdesk@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix Oh I should point out though that the social area you are displaying is on my contact page only contains open social networks. @RL_Dane was talking about the social share buttons located on each post page.

@RL_Dane @tripplehelix I'm working on that.

@joel It's understandable if its work, but heck why bother paying out of your own pocket for a screen protector and case? That is the employers responsibility and choice.

Bonkers how you can't 3 finger tap an item/link to open it in a new tab on like you could on (and , probably). forums I was looking into this on all starts with a simple, civilised question and quickly drags into a messy garbage of Apple extremists saying you're stupid for wanting that simple way of opening stuffs in a new tab when you can just either 1) Cmd + Click, 2) 2 finger tap + Open new tab, or 3) Get a mouse - as if those are the same things, when the answer should've been really, "you couldn't".

Hate to make these posts.
But been having about bout with kidney issues since this morning.
Guess I’ll be missing work for the 3rd week in a row. 🫤
So i might be a bit quiet tomorrow as well. Depends how the night goes.

Anyway.
Not to dwell on the negative stuff.
Just discovered that The Expanse didn’t end with season 4, which I was lead to believe. Finished those earlier this year.
Love this series, so I have two more seasons to catch up on!

    @grueproof A very strange situation which makes me curious to know how this is happening. I've used Mozilla Firefox for 19 years and I don't recall ever having this issue. Though this does make me think of one thing. Do you happen to have the habit of closing Firefox and then shortly afterwards opening it again?
