Looks like here’s something wrong with Markdown parsing. šŸ¤” The original twt looks like this:

>This extension was turned off because it is no longer supported

Thanks Google.
This browser was uninstalled because it absolutely sucks!

So only the first line should be a quote.

In-reply-to » The lack of suckless-like simple, hackable software these days is appalling.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah that’s why I’m striking this conversation with you šŸ˜… Not only do I respect your opinion quite highly 🤣 But like you say (and I’ve read their philipshpy) it can be a bit ā€œelitismā€ for sure. I’m genuinely interested in what we think of as software that ā€œdoesn’t suckā€. Tb be honest I haven’t really put thought to paper myself, but I reckon if I did, I’d have some opinions/ideas…

Come on, why is the bloody IBAN only in the damn HTML part of your e-mail but not in the plain text!? Grrr! Don’t you wanna get paid, dealer!? Your new web shop system sucks so bad, I want the old version back.

i switched my bookmarks site from espial (unmaintained project) to linkding, and while i’ll miss espial’s simplicity, i do appreciate linkding’s power and the provided API.

at first i got auth working with my SSO (authelia) and was happy, but i want my public bookmarks available without login… and i couldn’t configure my proxy to make that work, because of issues with sub paths, which sucks. so i switched to linkding’s built-in auth. inconvenient, but worth it to share my bookmarks.

In-reply-to » Wanna read something very scary?

@prologic@twtxt.net That’s an interesting premise in that article:

The fun has been sucked out of the process of creation because nothing I make organically can compete with what AI already produces—or soon will.

This is like saying it’s pointless to make music yourself because some professional player/audio engineer does a better job. Really, there’s always someone or something that’s better than you at a particular job.

If we focus too much on ā€œcompetitionā€, then yes, you can just stop doing anything. I don’t know how common this mindset is, especially among artists or creative people. šŸ¤” I would have assumed that many writers, for example, simply enjoy the process of writing. Am I being too naive once more? 🤣

And on a similar note, cross-post from Mastodon:

What I love about HTML and HTTP is that it can degrade rather gracefully on old browsers.

My website isn’t spectacular but I don’t think it looks horrible, either. And it’s still usable just fine all the way down to WfW 3.11:

It’s not perfect, but it’s usable. And that makes me happy. Almost 30 years of compatibilty.

The biggest sacrifice is probably that I don’t enforce TLS and that HTTP 1.0 has no Host: header, so no vhosts (or rather, everything must come from the default vhost). (Yes, some old browsers send Host:, even though they predate HTTP 1.1. Netscape does, but not IBM WebExplorer, for example.)

(On the other hand, it might completely suck on modern mobile devices. Dunno, I barely use those. 🤪)

In-reply-to » Also, I should cut down on coffee. Seriously, I've nearly had a ... I honestly don't know what it was; A Panic attack? A heart attack? I dunno, I just felt like my heart and lungs were so about to burst I had to go for a run to cope.

@prologic@twtxt.net Maybe they are for you, dunno? šŸ˜… Caffeine makes me stay at the same level of tiredness/exhaustion – except I’m hyped and can’t sleep. 🄓 Sucks, tbh. šŸ˜‚

In-reply-to » Dang it! I ran into import cycles with shared test utilities again. :-( Either I have to copy this function to set up an in-memory test storage across packages or I have to put it in the storage package itself and guard it with a build tag that is only used in tests (otherwise I end up with this function in my production binary as well). I don't like any of the alternatives. :-(

oof that sucks man. does it make sense to have a separate testutils package to import from?

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m speculating, but if I had to guess I’d say it’s probably asking for your user password in order to access some user keyring (or whatever your OS uses to manage user secret credentials) used to safely store your passkeys related data in order to do its passkeys /ME doing air quotes Magicā„¢ … you could try with a different password manager to avoid said scenario.

Also, passkeys UX sucks.

Streaming services can suck. Wanted to watch the classic Elf movie for a fun movie night, but somehow we were getting the message ā€œThis movie is not available in your region.ā€. Turns out we were looking for the wrong title.

So.. Of y’all that had covid. Did you have at the end a night where for no reason your brain amped up to 11 and can’t sleep at all? It happened to me last night and my FIL the night before.

I went to bed at 8 and woke up full on anxiety attack at 12 and could not calm my head until around 7 am. Today has sucked a lot.

no, niplav, you won’t get sucked into reading the heraldry wikipedia articles, even though ā€œescutcheonā€ looks like a really good word to drop in a conversation.
