Hahaha, what an evil idea, @aelaraji@aelaraji.com. :-D
@movq@www.uninformativ.de At work, I mostly open Jira tickets in new tabs and don’t navigate them. But yeah, GitHub unsurprisingly fucked up here. One more reason not to use it. ;-)

@prologic Yeah, I was just surprised by that low number, because I still have 126 feeds in my list. Buuuuuut I guess I could clean that up a bit as well. 🥴
@movq@www.uninformativ.de To be fair Twtxt has always been quite niche. Yarn picked up interest a bit a few years back, but then things died down a bit. I built yarnd
for me, I continue to use it and improve it every now and again. But I guess the only uses we’ll continue to see and that includes new folks are folks that give a shit about simple things, and see value in a slow, privacy focused medium? 🤔
@prologic Not a lot left, huh 🤔
Cut my following list down to just a mere ~47 feeds. ~11 rss/news feeds, 23 local feeds from my pod, and 13 external feeds.
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com lol, yeah, that would be great 😂
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @mckinley@mckinley.cc Huh, I envy you. 😅 I was browsing my GitHub stars, clicked Next
a couple of times and then hit the back
button on my mouse. Boom, I don’t get back to the previous page but to my profile page: https://github.com/vain?tab=stars
At work, it is absolutely pointless to expect forward/backward to work. Almost everything breaks. Maybe some older Jira still works, but that’s about it.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Same here. Where does it not work, @movq@www.uninformativ.de?
Hell yeah, this is some amazing bee stuff! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgOYLDf5Wv8
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Classically navigating through the history still works perfectly fine on most (if not all) websites I visit.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de imagine remapping them to reboot
and shutdown
instead. That would be fun, wouldn’t it? 😂
@news Err I meant “junk” 🤣 (too late to edit, cbf editing it manually or via the API/CLI 😅)
New feature (not a great UX, sorry 😞) that displays the last fetched feed status, last error (if any) and error count in your “Following” list. Check it out and cleanup your feeds for “hunk” 👌
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Could also just be a shitty antenna 😅
I just unfollowed some ~200+ feeds that are basically dead “404 Not Found” 😳
@prologic I sure hope you’re right. 😅 I’d love nothing more than not having to rely on the internet for this. 🤞
(I clearly remember sitting in my car and waiting an eternity to get a fix, though. I’d regularly start the GPS device and then continue to load up my bags/stuff into the car because it took so long. 😅 Maybe it was just a shitty device, who knows …)
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Well I used to have a handheld GPS device, probably before I lost most of my sight. I didn’t really feel that it took ~12m to get a fix, it was usually much faster. You may just find that all this A-GPS thing is all just bullshit anyway and just an excuse to collect and store your GPS location on some random web server that someone else owns 🤣
The GPS satellites transmit an almanac, a (coarse) list of all satellite positions:
https://www.e-education.psu.edu/geog862/node/1739
That’s apparently crucial for a low “time to first fix” and, as I understand it, that’s where A-GPS comes into play: Downloading this information from the satellites takes about 12.5 minutes, but downloading it via the internet (A-GPS) is much faster.
So the question is: How long is this data valid for? It’s a bit hard to find information on this … It looks like it’s valid for several weeks:
https://flysight.ca/wiki/index.php/Almanac_and_ephemeris
If true, it would mean the situation is much less dramatic than I thought. 😅 I go on a walk every couple of days and that gives the device more than enough time to download an updated almanac. So, I guess I should be fine without A-GPS if I regularly use (standard) GPS for an hour or so. 🤔
We’ll see. This might take a couple of months to find out. 😂
If Sam Altman really wanted “AI” to be in the hands of the people, he a) Should not have made deals with multiple devils that turned OpenAI into a proprietary company. b) Sold most of the company to Microsoft.
hey @oevl you’re still around right? I’m not imagining it 😅 How are ya? 🤔
I’m gonna need some medication if I have to keep doing this. 😬 It’s infuriating.

Thinking about disabling the two extra buttons for “forward” and “backward” on my mouse, because today’s websites don’t support this anymore, and it’d safe me the constant moments of “oh for fuck’s sake”. 🙄
@prologic @movq@www.uninformativ.de @bender Yup, I second that. :-) We went to Ebersberg Castle with the scouts. It was great fun and very exhausting at the same time.
I’m (just) old enough to have experienced the German Democratic Republic first hand and if they had had any of these capabilities … 🙈🙈🙈
@mckinley@twtxt.net Aaaaaaaahhhhhhh! 🙈🙈🙈 What a mess …
@movq@www.uninformativ.de People just don’t ask these questions. It’s really a serious privacy issue, and I don’t see it brought up very often. Not even in privacy-minded circles. If you’re using a proprietary operating system on any Internet-connected device, you need to assume that the vendor can see everything you do on it and maybe even what you do on other devices as well..
