Hey you! Yes! *YOU!*
Come to #OggCamp in Manchester - October 12-13.
It's a delightfully nerdy open source / open culture conference.
Meet new friends, give new talks, learn new things.
Tickets available now - https://oggcamp.org/
Hmmmmm, what a lucky man I am to have a wife who was ready to taste later and drive us on… Now it’s her joy to take sips of great whiskys. The tour of the Cragganmore distillery was fascinating (and – thanks to some Canadian fellows – funny), tasting as well – and I wouldn‘t have been able to drive us securely for more than 50 metres… In the end, I bought a bottle and two cups. Well, I‘m a tourist… #scotland #whisky #vacation
@mtconleyuk @dangillmor @pluralistic "it's more expensive for you to support me on Apple. So use my website for a discount" is what everyone should be telling their subscribers
@eyecreate hmm. Asked official Framework forum?
@eyecreate looks to have slipped off the pin on right. Does it not push up back over it?
@tek
If I ever go I'm taking a burner with a different PIN on it and making sure I only log into accounts that require 2FA.
Lufthansa, in their wisdom, decided that the first of my 4 night break in krakow would be better spent in an airport Hotel, listening to the aircon unit leak into the metal bin i placed there. So to make up for it, they decided not to fly me home, but to give me 24 hours in an airport Hotel in the arse end of Frankfurt. Thanks, lufthansa!
@werdersee should be fine. I mean, that piano wasn't even on fire...
@mcc does it start playing its own code ?!?

When the company calls their home appliances "smart", what I hear is:
- they spent money on features I care about
- those features will be worse than standalone devices but will drive them out of market (looking at you TVs)
- the appliance is more likely to break
- my data is likely being sold to advertisers
- when the company loses interest in it and cut support, I will need to buy a new device
So no, I don't want "smart" home appliances.
@mhoye technically, it's the preprocessor just doing search and replace before it gets to the actual compiler bits, right? Which is why the answer is "grep" ...
What is the most annoying feature on other platforms that you think Codeberg (or #Forgejo) does better?
Another thing I can't help but notice: I assumed that when Tidal for Samsung TV shut down it would be like, they shut off some endpoint and the app presents an error. In fact the Samsung TV itself, if I try to open the app, says "This TIDAL has been terminated and is no longer available. Do you want to delete the selected item(s)?". So Samsung can remotely disable any software running on my TV. Uh? I really do hate smart TVs. They are simply devices designed to betray you.
@yantor3d excellent!
@barsteward @bloor it was introduced as part of ex-government's hostile environment. It's meant to cut down the numbers by raising a barrier, not be useful or accurate.
