I just remembered that I ordered a bag of actual coal to use as runners-up prizes in the costume contest in our Nightmare Before Christmas sing-along and it never arrived. It seems it was delivered and stolen. (Mail theft is a problem in my building.)
Someone stole my COAL.

Some wingnut I've never spoken to before (or again (foreshadowing!)) accused me of living in an "echo chamber" because I block people.
Fuck the "echo chamber" discourse. I reject it entirely.I am not here to wear an ascetic's hair shirt because you think that surrounding myself with dickheads builds character.
Block early and block often. I expanded on this in some detail in my "On Blocking" post from a few years back, but it bears repeating. Especially now.

@npub1psd…9sr7 As a victim of an American education I know basically nothing about French history, so I learned that this *this year* after watching the recent (terrible, interminable) Napoleon movie. In the American version the whole French Revolution is just a footnote in the chapter where Jefferson invents Liberty. So on realizing that after all that fuss with the beheadings and whatnot it only lasted ten years, I had to pause the movie and go "wait, what?" on Wikipedia for a while.

Dear Lazyweb,
I haven't typed M-x gdb since before macOS deprecated it. Is there a version that works with lldb? I found this https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ptrv/emacs.d/master/site-lisp/gud-lldb.el but it does not do the "you had one job" thing, which is: make the other window show the source code corresponding to the current frame.
(I am aware that "just use printf" is probably the correct answer and what I will end up doing anyway.)

2024-07-25 16:51:39

Dear Lazyweb, is there a page where I can paste a user agent and it will tell me, "that's probably fake"?
E.g., "Chrome x.y.z never existed" or "that version was Android TV, not macOS" or "that's 10 years old".
Yes, I am aware that libraries exist to generate plausible UAs and many bots use them. But most bots don't try that hard, and I'd like to manually ask the question, "is this low-hanging fruit?"
(whatismybrowser dot com is not the answer.)

@npub1tvq…l6jk I saw that announcement and gave it all the consideration due to an announcement that the Apple ][ version of Wolfenstein now has a plugin architecture. Honestly I'm not gonna get wound up about the TOS.

It is with a heavy heart that I bring you the news that Twitter finally got around to renewing t dot co for another twelve months. They did this after it expired but was still in the grace period. Oh well, maybe next year.

OMFG. See now, this is the kind of manufacturer-specific threat intelligence it would have been helpful for the lazyweb to have provided me:

Dear Lazyweb, I have an NEC video projector and I can't get it to do DHCP, or become pingable with a static IP. Tried several cables; the switch gets a link light on all. Is there something weird about these that I'm missing? The setup menu seems straightforward.

@npub1d9y…hkqk Large language models are now no longer called "AI", they are called "Fucksmiths". I'm sorry, I don't make the rules.

@npub1wwc…88qz I feel certain that no matter how many bike racks existed, they would fill them all with product. No spammer has ever said "that's enough for today, we're good". Capitalism is a paperclip optimizer.

Is there any recourse -- besides bolt cutters -- to these scooter companies coming by in their truck and locking their commercial product to *every slot in every bike rack* so that nobody with a bike can use the rack at all?
Is there anyone at the city who will do something about these assholes?

@npub1lrv…tth9 If the content of an article depends upon twitter embeds, it's not journalism, it's just vibes. Nothing of value has been lost.

The mail settings got screwed up somehow on my mom's iPad and she went into the Apple store to get them to help her reset it. They told her, "Your iPad is too old, mail is no longer supported on it."

I regularly download entire seasons of a TV show faster than Xcode can download command line tools.
