hmm interesting work here.. ill give it a look.. @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org do you know if it is even storing the url into the AST object? afair the code to parse tags url should be the same as the mention url.

@thecanine@twtxt.net The thing is, all these IVR phone systems are so fucking useless it’s not even funny. They either can’t understand you, are stupid as fuck, or somewhere in between. You spend minutes to hours trying to figure out how to get anywhere you basically just end up giving up. I think it’s done on purpose 😱

@prologic@twtxt.net careful, if you provide too much feedback, your feedback button might also disappear. 🫠 Also recently celebrated the 1st anniversary of the MS Teams multilingual spellchecker bug, Microsoft actually acknowledged and promised us to fix. And by “bug”, I mean it being completely broken.

250.000 scrobbles!

How does my current, cumulative digital listening stats compare with the first ten years of it?

Well, Mindless Self Indulgence got more plays than +ko+ko+, Sieben got into my top 10 bands (Empyrium falling into 11th place).

In sum: almost nothing changed, the only “surprise” is Sieben getting more plays these last few years (there was a time it wasn’t even part of my Top 15).

Feel free to geek out around what I scrobble at https://www.last.fm/user/Mind_Booster

In-reply-to » So I was advised by the FTC to file a complaint with the Internet Crimes Complaints Centre (IC3) -- That is, the FBI. They have an online form that you can use, however it is clearly designed for US citizens, not designed for cross-country complaints such as from AU. Needless to say, I tried to speak with a lovely woman on the phone (who would not say here name, only her badge number: 9834) where we went through the form together. Managed to get to the 3rd page, at which point the "Address" had an asterisk next to it (*) -- I advise operator #9834 that I was not comfortable handing out a specific address, at which point she responded:

e.g Spam Act 2003 of Australia

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org it is the same as my current avatar here, the original pixelart is 51x51 (including the empty lines and columns, to ensure it doesn’t get covered, when it’s shown through a circular cutout).

For some reason, Jira has two identical avatars for each user, with different resolutions (48x48 and 24x24), depending on where in the app they’re shown. Jira also comes with SVG ones, but custom SVGs cannot be added by users.

This also cannot possibly be to save space for Atlassian, because if you also have an Atlassian account for Confluence, there’s yet another avatar type, that’s 256x256 and can be different than the two identical small Jira ones.

Lastly Jira profile pictures can have transparent background, but the Confluence ones cannot.

In-reply-to » @bender @prologic I can reproduce this locally, too. But it doesn't matter if I follow the feed or not. With JS enabled, hitting "Reply" opens a textarea with @<url>. Submitting this writes @<domain url> instead of @<nick url> in the feed.

While I now have a somewhat working fix for it in yarnd (https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/yarn/pulls/1232), I also have the feeling that I should fix literal formatting in lextwt as well. This also uncovered more bugs I believe: https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/go-lextwt/pulls/28

But then there is also the question why the textarea is populated with @<url> in the first place rather than @<nick url> or yarnd’s own @nick@domain/@nick syntax. It indeed has to do something with whether I follow the mentioned feed or not.

Anyway, something to investigate for future Lyse or maybe @prologic@twtxt.net and/or @xuu. G’night!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de This time it works! (For the first time). Using mutt, yes, and the config is yours. I’ll contact you later, when I have more data. Some time needed to experiment. Thanks!

Righto, must be some caching thing that’s going on, too. Now, with JS enabled and a feed that I follow, hitting “Reply” actually automatically enters @nick@domain in the textarea. Submitting it correctly writes “@in the feed. Let's dig…

However, when I have JS disabled, “Reply” jumps to the top of the page, but the the textarea is at the bottom. So, after scrolling down, the textarea is not filled with anything. Which is expected I reckon. Entering @nick@domain or just @nick resolves to the correct @<nick url> in the feed.

In any case, completely unproductive. :-D Luckily, I very rarely have to go to the office.

My hike today started off with a nice great spotted woodpecker right after the town sign. The -1°C didn’t feel all that cold in the sun. Even on the flat, I had to open my jacket with the sun on my back. The biotope got dug over, that’s now looking really sad. And they also fell a few large chestnuts. Surprisingly, there was actually snow on the mountain. Not much, maybe around three centimeters at most. It was melting and falling down the trees, which looked really cool. I enjoyed it a lot: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2025-02-04/

@f1ee6 Hello, for my part, I’m discovering Gopher :-). Really cool to give a little life to old computers. For the moment, I access Gopher from an old Mac G3/OS9, lynx on linux on an I3 laptop and for fun, Gopher from my old Palm PDA with Overbite. Lots of good things to all, friendship from France ;-)
