@bender Haha 😝

@prologic@twtxt.net and I believe he is an “Open Web Lead” at Automatic, and working on the ActivityPub plugin for WordPress. The theme he uses is his own. Anyway, moving on…

@bender LOL 😂 I tried to even read the blog post, but I couldn’t. In all bluntness and honestly the layout and style of the website is total garbage, not to mention it’s written in a language I cannot read, but because it’s just so poorly written the translation service can’t translate it properly 🤦‍♂️ So point across FAIL

Just found a pleasant way to wade through meetings: listening to Puccini’s “La Bohème”. Glorious!

@prologic@twtxt.net a thing, a thing! I mean, the amount of information the OP brought speaks for itself, right, right? 🫢😅

@bender What is?! 😆

@prologic@twtxt.net “it’s a thing!” 🤣

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ahh yea! I’ll setup some CD for it this weekend 👌

@bender Hmmm? 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de it is all in the context. When referring to computers, if the person uses Microsoft Windows, then colloquially the user “is on Windows”, for example.

For PowerPoint is simpler, as nothing else is called that way, nor have the same spelling. But yeah, similar to “gonna grab a Coke”. It is intrinsically embedded in the language.

@bender@twtxt.net lol 😂

So you don’t feel a bit weird when you say “Windows” or “PowerPoint”? It’s just a brand, nothing special?

@prologic Speaking of broken mentions, do you want to install a more recent yarns version so that my error log is not spammed anymore with 404s? 8-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Zero progress on mine. :-( I still rely on the official twtxt client to download the (main) feed.

Thanks, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! Hahaha, didn’t think of that. :-D Nah, this guy is not creepy, he’s just a melting flower snowman. ;-) Rest assured, he was unharmed on the table, you can see him here: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2024-04-21/23.JPG

Google:

I often wonder what it must be like for native English speakers to use all these so-called brand names. “I use window 11! This is a KraftPoint presentation. I got the code for this script from the idiot turnstile.” All that sort of thing.

🤣🤣🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I figure the same as for non-native. LOL. All translation services are doing a poor job at translating your twtxt. 😭

Jaja, @movq@www.uninformativ.de, immer schön aufmerksam der guten Steckdosenpräsi folgen und im Anschluss in der Exzellenztabelle was eintragen und ausrechnen lassen! :-D Klingt alles recht albern. Ich schätz aber mal, dass einem das gar nicht mehr auffällt.

@bender Fenster 11 → Windows 11; KraftPunkt (or Steckdose) → PowerPoint; Deppendrehkreuz (awesome translation btw, I had to laugh hard!) → GitHub.

Absolutely lovely. 🫢

this felt really easy today which was surprising since yesterday’s run hurt (knee). curious if the s&c beforehand helped things out a bit. it was hot and humid, but there was a nice breeze for some of it so didn’t feel the heat until the last mile.

Ich frag’ mich schon oft, wie das für die englischen Muttersprachler sein muss, all diese sogenannten Markennamen zu benutzen. „Ich benutze Fenster 11! Das hier ist eine KraftPunkt-Präsentation. Den Kode für dieses Skript habe ich vom Deppendrehkreuz.“ All sowas. 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net Makes sense. We definitely need the ability to mute feeds from the Discover feed.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I remember your solution. It’s very simple, I like it.

Yes, my backup target is my home server. I have a hard drive dedicated to Restic repositories. It’s still not a real backup as I don’t have anything offsite but it’s better than my previous solution. I had two very old hard drives I kept plugged in to my desktop PC and I would (on very rare occasion) plug in another hard drive and copy all the files over to it. Luckily, I’ve never suffered any significant data loss and I would rather not start now. Once I have automated backups on each of my machines, the next project is getting those backups offsite.
