Hello fediverse!

This morning we shipped an exciting new version of #Flipboard that enables *anyone* on Flipboard to follow *anyone* in the fediverse.

This is the culmination of a ton of work to deeply integrate #ActivityPub into the product. The result is incredibly seamless.

Just tap on the search icon in Flipboard and tap the follow button for anyone featured there or that you find in search. You’ll soon start seeing their posts in all of your relevant Flipboard feeds.

Check the screenshots below and read this post to learn more:

There’s a powerful moment that happens every time you build your own PC. After your chosen components are slotted into place, every connection is double-checked, and each wire is neatly tucked away, you close the case and power on your new machine. Then you (hopefully) see that first loading screen, as a proud sense of ownership washes over you. It can be an addicting experience, but until last week I’d never enjoyed that experience with a laptop...

Wow, this is a neat take on the #deckbuilder idea. Fired up the demo long enough to play the tutorial and it was pretty fire.

Thanks for the tip! :pixelheart:

Never played any of them. Big Tarkovsky fan. Read 'Roadside Picnic' and loved it. Seen all the Stalker games, over the shoulder. Saw the promo for this one ...

This is like a No-Open-World-Mod for GTA. It takes the USP from the game. Just doesn't make sense.
in reply to staticvoid

@staticvoid No, it's nothing alike. This is removing a *hardware* requirement to make a game playable for the majority. Don't be daft.

This episode of Linux Dev Time is so good! It’s about working with legacy code, refactoring, how to work in messy code bases etc linuxdevtime.com/linux-dev-tim…
in reply to Danielle Foré

I’m looking forward to this one because the job I started last year is nothing but decades old legacy code.

#SocialCoop I just made a simple change to the instance to make Mastodon multi-column mode "make sense" in social.coop, meaning use up all space instead of having weirdly narrow columns.

See before/after if interested, let me know if you have any issues! You can try it by enabling multi-column mode in your preferences.

h/t testman42@github.com for the workaround: github.com/mastodon/mastodon/i…

in reply to In #Flancia we'll meet

Trying it now—I like it! Thank you! The spacing really never made sense, it's true.
in reply to Nathan Schneider

@ntnsndr thank you for trying it! Yes, it's very unclear to me why the default hasn't been updated -- I left a comment to inquire/see if we can improve the defaults for every instance: github.com/mastodon/mastodon/i…
in reply to Nathan Schneider

@ntnsndr FYI this has been reverted, please reapply the CSS manually if you still want this behavior:

div.column {
-webkit-box-flex:1;
-ms-flex-positive:1;
flex-grow:1
}

in reply to In #Flancia we'll meet

Oh darn, why was it reverted?

Honestly, I'll probably just go back to the single-column interface. I am fine with that.

in reply to Nathan Schneider

@ntnsndr one user reported it broke their workflow, said it was too wide and it made the UI uncomfortable to read; they declined providing more details for now so I'm unsure how to work around their issue. Therefore I disabled it altogether.

Unfortunately social.coop/@flancian/11295628… is also a thing apparently.

So maybe it'll also be single-column for me. Or I'll fiddle with userscripts 😀 But most people won't, so they will miss out, which is a shame.

The Republican attack on higher ed pretends to be ideological. But follow the money: it's just grift.

They see a giant pot of taxpayer dollars and have figured out how to take it for themselves and their friends while driving students into debt and diverting resources from the people who actually do the work that makes universities what they're supposed to be.

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

this put big smile on my face. Mad respect to KRAFTON using that PUBG money to roll a dice on this. Reminder, Hi Fi Rush was financial success, and just outright fun game. Just not good enough for Microsoft.
