Oh ffs! Just learned about "meal sequencing". Just eat clean whole foods (most of the time) and move your body. Don't worry about getting your fiber before your protein or whatever the fuck.

Honkers out there. Can you help me with the following #honk terminology and fill me in where I'm missing or correct me if I'm wrong:

donk = image (attachment)
bonk = boost
xonk = ?
zonk = mute / delete
badonk = ?
qonk = vote in poll

Also have most of you moved to honk3? I don't remember if there is a migration process from old school honk to honk3 or even if it's something that's recommended heh. I'm pretty find with old school honk so.

White Lotus ending didn't disappoint. Even though this was my least favorite season, I did enjoy the last couple of episodes and the finale paid off.

At some point I clicked a video of some Gen Z'er eating a huge chipotle burrito for the camera and just making a total mess of it.

The algorithm thought I liked the content and showed me a couple more. I clicked and watched.

Now it's like 90% of what the algorithm shows me. I continue to click and watch. I have no explanation for why I do this. I just do.

I can't believe there are massive influencers who simply eat food in front of the camera. There are some who don't even talk. Some who don't even show their face, just aggressive eating/editing. I can't believe I watch these every damn day. I mean wtf.

@teleclimber Basically within 6 months of buying it the radio started failing. So I couldn't make calls longer than 30 seconds before it would drop.

Did a bunch of debugging with support online and it was determined to be a faulty radio and I would be given a new phone. The issue is I live outside of the US and I can't initialize a new phone on Google Fi internationally.

So it was noted when I returned to the US (which would be after the warranty expired) that with the case history my warranty would be honored.

Leading up to my next trip home I started reaching out to schedule the swap. They stopped responding. I tried many times, nothing. When I finally got home to the US they wouldn't honor it because the warranty expired.

So I will never buy another Google phone because of it.

@teleclimber I loved my Nexus 5. Miss that phone actually. I did a few Pixels but after Google totally screwed me over with my Pixel 7 I won't use Google phones again. Now I use a Samsung S24 Ultra. It's expensive and massive but after I adjusted to it, I love it.

Next time I think I'll go with a Plus version though. I just don't need everything the Ultra gives me.

@art_codesmith
There are no open source devs at the table when they choose to no longer publish under an open source software license. They are free to do that and we respect their decision. Please also respect our decision not to use that software any longer, if it is no longer free software.

There are many ways to monetize software. Turning free software into proprietary one is one such thing. But after that switch it is no longer free software. That's it, no need for euphemism.

@tedu I took my 2018 (? ish) 6th gen x1 carbon out of my storage cabinet to give to my wife because her 4th gen started having issues.

I sat there on my < 1 year old P14 beast looking longingly at the x1. Easily the best keyboard of any laptop I've ever used. I wish Lenovo put that keyboard on this P14 (I am not a fan of the P14 kb at all)

Claude availability by country/region:

https://www.anthropic.com/supported-countries

Haiti, where gangs are shooting at civilians planes at the airport when they're landing is allowed.

Costa Rica, where gangs recently rushed a beach on the Caribbean side of the country spraying AK47's at people simply enjoying the day with their families, is allowed.

Mexico, I don't need to say more here, is allowed..

Nicaragua however, which is one of the safest countries in the Western Hemisphere (despite also being the 2nd poorest) is not allowed.

I know it's politics and not really crime that's the reason but man this annoys me.

OK, so QuickBooks (Intuit) now requires a subscription to use their software, even the desktop version. So I need a way to manage the books for 5 different companies that don't have any crazy requirements.

Has anyone out there ever migrated to GNUCash from QB? Any experience with it? How about getting really crazy and using something like ledger or hledger? I'm fine with the CLI but getting my bookkeeper and CPA on board with this will be fun.

@blainsmith it seems like limeleaf is similar business to mine, what do you use to manage your books?

Just looking for general advice on migrating away from QB. Preferably an open source tool but I'm open to anything. My only requirement is that I can run it offline. Bonus points if it runs on Linux but I'm fine with using a VM if need be.

Boosts greatly appreciated!

I can't with UEFA anymore. The corruption for Real Madrid is too much. There is always some weird scenario that comes up that gives RM a penalty or some advantage but disallowing Julian Alvarez' goal for double touching is total bs. This is the wildest I've seen yet. Even my (many) friends who support RM say that was bs but of course, they're happy and used to it because it always falls in their favor.

Ugh, why do I let football ruin my day....

Barca won yesterday. Dortmund just one. Both moving on to the quarter finals. I think this will be one of my favorite #ChampionsLeague seasons in a while if Real Madrid is knocked out today. Fingers crossed!

@teleclimber @adamghill I'm pretty sure there are ways to do this already. Django can do streaming responses and I seem to remember some apps to help do what you want but honestly I don't do enough fancy front end to remember.

If you wanna toy around you can say parse the header/footer sections, stream the header, stream the "meat", then the footer. Quick and easy experiment I suppose.

Now Bluesky's Jay Graber is simply lying.

“If a billionaire came in and bought Bluesky and took it over, or I decided tomorrow to change things in a way that people didn’t really like, then they could fork off and go on to other applications.”

https://observer.com/2025/03/bluesky-ceo-jay-graber-wants-world-without-caesars/

Of course, this makes absolutely no sense, but tech media dutifully just prints it.

What does "fork off and go on to other applications" mean?

What is it she is even saying?

Getting really tired of this gaslighting BS.

Nothing makes me feel like I'm living on the edge like watching go generate (do translations) push my system load to above 20.

It's Monday morning and I'm not even onto my second cup of coffee yet. So I gotta get this off my chest.

It really really annoys me when a USB-A connector doesn't fit into an HDMI port. I just want to transfer some files damn it. This should be solved already.

Get on it geeks!

@Merovius Essentially it's this. In two places I have similar calls like:

lt.Translate("%s Links", obj.Title)

and

lt.Translate("%s Links", obj.Name)

This creates a conflict in translation IDs in the out.gotext.json file. I tried using custom ID's in the .json files and manually adjusting them but then they are just overwritten during the next go generate. I tried various times, including changing how the variables are referenced in the translation files.

Finally I gave up and just used a Title variable where the Name was used. This basically makes the translations think it's the same translation, which technically I guess it is anyway.

Thus the weird hack of creating a random Title var and using it in that case and my comment, while lacking any sense, shows my frustration and annoyance hah.

About a month ago I made LinkTaco live. We're now at around 100k bookmarked imported/saved. Not a lot but the bots have found us and their traffic has gotten annoying.

So a change was just pushed live, FYI for those few users out there who may be seeing this:

https://lists.code.netlandish.com/~netlandish/links-discuss/%3CD8A2MMRJ2F12.1H3H29T1XO6MG@netlandish.com%3E

PS - If you're a Go dev or know front end well enough we need help :) LinkTaco is open source so, if you're bored and want a project to help out with, it's much appreciated.

@icy @tedu Forgot to update you. I finished the book a week or so ago.

It's been a long time since I've been this disappointed in a book. It was so long winded and aside from a few short pages of interesting parts (forest battle and killing of fake Edema Ruh) this was extremely boring to me. All the Maer BS, the 100 pages dedicated to him banging some fairy, the training with the Admere, and of course his other casual sexual conquests. I'd find myself skipping like 3-4 pages and they're still doing the same shit they were pages earlier. It was like fantasy CSPAN.

This video sums up Kovthe's sexual prowess in this book

If book 3 ever comes out I have to read it because I need to get rewarded for all my time invested so far but I don't have my hopes up.

you may have read that Trump Gov has instructed its embassies across the world to send a letter to their providers giving them 5 days to certify they don't have any kind of DEI program in place or drop it if they want to keep being providers of the US embassy.

Now the fun part: Since last year, every company over 50 employees in Spain has to have a defined gender equity plan if they want to do business with the spanish public sector. Which I suspect is a MUCH bigger deal than keep being a provider for the US embassy.

Looking forward for the US embassy in Madrid running out of running water or electricity next week <3

@teleclimber @jds Wish I could be more helpful but

1. I don't do a ton of hiking and
2. I generally avoid CR

But here are few places my wife has been bugging me to go to but I can't vouch for their touristy levels:

  • La Cascaada Fortuna
  • Catarata Salto La Victoria

I could be a bit more helpful if you wanted to head north into Nicaragua. Some benefits are:

  • MUCH cheaper
  • MUCH MUCH less tourists
  • MUCH MUCH MUCH safer

Unfortunately CR is overrun with Americans, Canadians and Europeans. It's pretty hard to find non touristy attractions that are worth the hassle of getting to them.

Nicaragua will eventually fall into the same trap and we slowly are now. I, as an American, shouldn't complain about it but of course, I do :)

After years of just routing our business line to a recording asking to send an email (too many spam calls during Covid) I finally got around to setting up my new IP phones and migrating to voip.ms. I gotta say, so far I really like the service.

I was paying like $30/mo before just to play a recording when someone called my line. Now I pay like $4.50/mo for a few lines, extensions, calls, etc. Of course it varies by time spent on the actual phone (not much) but it's cheap, fully featured, and works well (in my one whopping week of experience with it).

Not an ad (I'm no where near influential enough to even be considered for an ad haha) but just a happy user (so far).
