Anyone know if there's a way to turn off noddy mode on the newer Firefox builds please?

I don't want to be told "Looks like there’s a problem with this site", I want it to say "500" or "connection refused", etc.

Y'know, like it used to, when it was more useful.

(Please don't tell me not to use Firefox, it's in my workflow for this project and I don't have time to stand up a new toolchain right now.)





Is #mastodon becoming an echo chamber? This post from @carnage4life has me questioning our community. The Mastodon team is finally getting some traction, the product improvements are increasing, The #UX is improving, yet people posting on multiple platforms are making comments like this. It's confusing.

I *know* people here don't want this to be a classic social media-clone but we'd *like* journalists to be here right? They aren't coming with examples like this!

in reply to Scott Jenson

As this conversation is spiraling a bit I want to make a few things clear:
1. I'd like Mastodon to be MORE inclusive and bring in more voices
2. Some people don't seem to want that
3. This is core problem to solve: How do we let more in, but not "pollute" your feed?
4. The solution is NOT "gatekeeping", revelling in the fact that AI journalists aren't welcome
5. This is the same reason we lost "Black Twitter" when it came over in 2022

Yes, a lot of you don't want AI posts in your feed (or pick any other topic) but the solution isn't to keep "AI People" from joining Mastodon, any more than it is keeping marginalized communities off of Mastodon.

in reply to Scott Jenson

I’m not interested in following any “AI people”. That doesn’t make it an echo chamber. We don’t need equal amounts of people who love puppies and want to kill puppies, not everything needs to be equally represented.
in reply to Eugen Rochko

@Gargron That is a personal choice and one which I totally respect. But I do think Mastodon should be big enough, and open enough, to allow an "AI community" to form, even thrive.

Too many people in my replies don't seem to agree with that.

in reply to Scott Jenson

@Gargron I just came back to my Mastodon account and one of the first things I see is people who have an interest in something being compared to puppy-killers by the "head" of Mastodon.

<turns it back off again>

in reply to Eugen Rochko

@Gargron Scott, let me reframe your stance in another way. Maybe it is precisely the success of Mastodon’s design and direction that allows here to be a place that *is not* being subjected to the artificial and bubble-nature of AI that exists everywhere else. (1/2)


Off on holiday for a week so won’t be anything on @gamingonlinux next week.

See you on the other side 👋

yes? unless there's a game specifically designed to prevent you from doing so, I'm pretty sure you can beat any game where you can turn by moving in any direction


RE: social.treehouse.systems/@danc…

April 1st is over.

However, we really do want to port Haiku to the RK356x.

In fact, there is progress on porting Haiku to arm64 and it seems to be making good progress: discuss.haiku-os.org/t/arm64-p…

We have NO PLANS to deprecate our ALARM-based Linux distro. 🙂

#pinetab2 #haikuos


We want to port Haiku to the RK356x platform 🙂

It's a long term plan but once Haiku port for RK356x is done and ready, we'll:

- Deprecating our ALARM-based Linux distro in favor of Haiku.

- All new PineTab2 will ship with Haiku instead of traditional ALARM-based Linux distro.

- Existing users will still remain on ALARM, however there'll not be any updates (user will receive "there is nothing to do" when they tried to update it)

The Vampire Rabbit of Newcastle upon Tyne


Newcastle upon Tyne is best known for its proud history of industry and invention, its famous football club, and its vibrant nightlife. Many people who walk the busy streets of the Toon, are unfamiliar with its dark side: real life witch trials, public execution and dissection, and of course, the vampire rabbit.

Unlike the former two very dark tales from Newcastle, the Vampire Rabbit is of a lighter order. More of an interesting conversation piece for those who seek it out or come across it by accident...

shouldn't

shouldn't the metric one be the smaller one?
it's the one that uses si prefixes correctly and the bigger one has weird factors between ranges o.o

in reply to space slut

@spacekatia counterpoint: i like metric and i like the JEDEC units so they both get the same category

These are our Aussie animals seeing themselves in a mirror!

I wouldn't be surprised if the magpies did recognise that they were looking at themselves. The two that come up to the mirror near the end of the video are mother and adolescent child.

in reply to Muse

@Muse I've always has a full length mirror for the pets who have graced by life, including a beloved rabbit, and fish swimming inside an aquarium. The Secret Life Of Plants: "GEMMA", the Weeping Fig Tree, has that same full length mirror by her and a window. It provides more sunlight, and perhaps she can look at herself. Who knows? Maybe she thinks the reflection is another tree, and it's her friend and companion. 😉)

So much energy, right over our homes, that can be harvested, used, stored.

in reply to Frank Aylward

@foaylward

Like solar, wind is also broadly distributed. I'm still awaiting an effective home wind turbine. Even at 0.1 kWh production it would make a difference at home, in addition to reducing pressure on the grid and its associated infrastructure costs.

in reply to Albert Cardona

agree completely. The hardware is a bit more expensive, I believe, but getting cheaper. I had a neighbor in Arizona twenty years ago that had an at home wind turbine, so clearly feasible.



"My friend Malcolm told me a story about pronghorns recently, the North American creatures sometimes confused with antelopes. They can run at speeds of nearly sixty miles an hour, much, much faster than any of their existing predators. Some biologists think they're still outrunning the dangerous species that went extinct at the end of the Pleistocene, specifically the cheetahs that existed on this continent. And then Malcolm asked what each of us is still outrunning and whether we can tell when our predator has been extinct for ten thousand years."

For a while now I've been wanting a generic notation to explain various things on my wiki(tropical arithmetic, multisets, other programming languages, ternary logic, primes, etc..) and I found a PL design I really enjoy writing.

It lands in a weird place, I feel like it might be the only concatenative language without a stack? As far as I know anyways.

I took a day to implement it, and shoved it into a little interactive playground. I have yet to populate the examples.

the colour scheme of Rejoice REPL is very daring, I like it. Is it comfortable to use for longer periods of time? Is it meant to? Lowkey considering restyling my IDE in this Merveilles Seafoam gradient...

when a cable is first invented: the high definition media interface cable is an interface cable for all your high definition media needs 😀

ten years later, inevitably: this fool really thought their HDMI 2.0 18gbps cable could display 10 bit HDR 60Hz 4K video with ALLM VRR and eARC without using 4:2:2 chroma subsampling 😂
