pinky swear

There’s not even a pinky swear. It’s not transactional in any way. It’s just a header you decide to send with every request. It’s the same as someone posting “I do not consent to Facebook harvesting data from my profile!” on their Facebook profile.

They fought well, but it was a case they couldn’t possibly win.

Also the && operator in sh. I think you can figure out what happened.

I’m guessing something like… Copy file/dir from location A to location B and then delete from A, but the copy had failed (and the delete unfortunately worked fine)?

What am I even doing with my life… brb, gotta get me an octopus vase…

I’ve started a few warriors, but it’s not helping because they’ve activated rate limiting. I just get:

Tracker rate limiting is active. We don’t want to overload the site we’re archiving, so we’ve limited the number of downloads per minute. Retrying after 240 seconds…

So the bottleneck is that they don’t want to overload Veoh.

Obviously you’ve never heard of the Time Cube, invented by the “wisest man on Earth”. (“My wisdom so antiquates known knowledge, that a psychiatrist examining my behavior, eccentric by his academic single corner knowledge, knows no course other than to judge me schizophrenic.” - Gene Ray).

You can still find his (now gone) site on the Internet Archive.
His ramblings are unfortunately very racist and homophobic too.

One of his diagrams that explain everything:

I just… I… I can’t install a browser that’s called “Floorp”. I just cant. I wouldn’t be able to look another person in the eyes and tell them that “I use floorp”. It’s probably a perfectly good fork of Firefox, but I just can’t.

Ogg was apparently not named after Nanny Ogg, no matter how awesome that’d be.

The Xiph.org foundation themselves say that’s where the name came from.

The Vorbis audio codec was also named after Vorbis from Small Gods, the 13th Discworld book.

Yeah, you could get hundreds of cheap nozzles for $70. I’ve bought packs of 10 nozzles for 74 cents. That’s almost a thousand nozzles I could get instead of one $70 tungsten one. Or maybe “only” 800 nozzles if I factor in a pessimistic shipping cost too.

EDIT: Checked the price I paid and it was even cheaper than I remember. Edited my calculations.

The new logo sort of looks like a white flag. It symbolizes the fact that Mozilla has just completely given up by now.

The moz://a logo is really genius. I wonder if their current leadership is so incompetent that they don’t even understand the :// part of the logo…

and frankly people got really pushy about a thing they don’t even pay for

He doesn’t owe anyone anything, and he can decide to run his open source project just as he pleases, but it could have gone so much better. People are mostly just disappointed, I feel like.

Alright, thanks

Yup, I can customize and change the settings of my Moondrop earbuds with Gadgetbridge instead of the official app.

They have a feature where they toggle sound presets depending on your location. That’s the only thing that requires an account, as well as access to your location. It’s opt-in however (and pretty useless imo).

If it can toggle ANC and “passthrough” mode based on location, that would actually be an awesome feature for me. I often wear my earbuds while walking, taking the train, and shopping, and in the train I like having ANC on but at the supermarket I like having passthrough mode on do I can hear the cashier better.

Pretty sure you can save them locally, it just requires extra clicks every time, which is super annoying.
