ICQ will stop working on June 26. :/

Haven't used it in ages, but it's always sad to see something from our teenage years going away

"Dr. King said that in the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. Sadly, medically vulnerable people are under no illusion that the Democrats are any kind of friend. But their silence is surely loud and clear." https://www.thegauntlet.news/p/biden-cdc-silent-as-north-carolina

@taylorlorenz USA, the land of the free - unless you want to wear a mask so you don't get sick and die. Then you have to accept your fate.

Tried Threads a little bit, wanted to see if it would be easier to find some things, and also how's the movie community out there.

Either their search doesn't work at all, or the movie community is close to non-existent (at least regarding more cult movies and bluray releases)

I'm so happy that we have some cool people posting here on #cinemastodon

Made a BlueSky account just to check, and seems there's actually a nice* movie community there. Maybe now that Jack Dorsey left, they'll continue implementing more moderation and it'll be usable as a side social media for some quick checks?

*nice in terms on enough users/content, will see how users are

Every time a server closes, how many people decide that the fediverse isn't for them?

falcon,
@falcon@mastodon.social avatar

@hrefna that's one of the reasons I'm on mastodon.social

I had this account (I think another one before that too), and tried other instances, but many ended up shutting down at some point.

Then I run into the issue of just not seeing many replies to thread while on other instances - because of lack of federation, and not block/defederation - so I ended up moving back here and have been happy since

@ZachWeinersmith honest question: I'm not seeing a bonus panel or anywhere to click to see it 🤔

Anyone recommends an online editor for Eleventy?

Currently I use Obsidian to edit posts, but that still requires me to be on my personal computer to push to my repository

@Chris their demo doesn't seem to work on mobile, and there's no mobile app for it

Ended up deciding to go back to Spotify, after about 4 years (I think?).

Even though some things are worse than before, it still feels so much better than Youtube Music and Apple Music.

And they are testing MVs in some countries, which I have yet to see how it works, but I hope it's closer to Youtube Music - in a way that works - instead of Apple Music

Oh nice - watching a 1960s dubbed German movie called "Spy Today, Die Tomorrow."
Very cheesy 007 wanna-be. On #Tubi.

@ottaross I’m interested!!!

🚨 New App Store terms for the E.U.

• 10% (or 17%) App Store fee (down from 15%/30%)
• +3% if you use Apple IAP
• You can use alt payment providers in-app and/or provide external links, for zero fee to Apple
• Apps distributed inside/outside App Store will have a flat 50c Core Technology Fee per [user] over 1M in a calendar year

Whatever you might want to say about the E.U., it looks like they've legitimately negotiated a better deal for devs. That’s what a working political system looks like 😄

@stroughtonsmith so, no more free big apps?

Now that I own a #cassette player again, I learned that there are still albums released on tape, occasionally. Too bad this one costs $60, worth more than the entire "music center" :D

Screenshot of Taylor Swift's Midnights album on Amazon, sold on CD, Vinyl and "Audio, Cassette" ($59.99).

@falcon@mastodon.social avatar

@cdamian @mrc what? There’s a “cassette” filter on the type, and even a cassette area along with vinyl and CDs

falcon,
@falcon@mastodon.social avatar

@cdamian @mrc This is what I see in Canada when I go to the music section

Clicking on the 'cassette' blue button takes me here - https://www.amazon.ca/s?k=Cassette+audio&i=popular&crid=T09OQC1NMRL8&pf_rd_i=916514&pf_rd_m=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&pf_rd_p=bbe02afa-5cd1-41bd-bacc-8bf30f234fbf&pf_rd_r=0KZCRKP8PNXTNJ4PP57F&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-top-2&pf_rd_t=101&sprefix=cassette+audi%2Cpopular%2C223&ref=nb_sb_noss

Also note the 'cassette' format filter on the left sidebar

@gnitro ahhh, would love to use last.fm, but don't wanna to the "let's set up a python script to scrobble" route 😅

Anyway, nice stats!!!!

falcon,
@falcon@mastodon.social avatar

@gnitro yeah, I use Youtube Music on MacOs, iOS and also google home. SO the only real alternative is to have a script running on my machine, but... too much work 😂

@SirTapTap@mastodon.social avatar

I still think #mastodon's new user experience needs a lot of work, I've seen quite a few people that clearly did not get past the initial "what do I do now" thing.

Always the same, they follow 0 or single digit accounts, have 0-1 followers in return, NEVER used a hashtag, their 'introduction' post is "well i have a mastodon i guess" with again, no hashtags

No surprise it doesn't work, but without guidance, I'm not surprised it's what happens

falcon,
@falcon@mastodon.social avatar

@SirTapTap I think the onboarding should ask the users about the discovery options. People are used to plain text search, so at the beginning they might not even realize they need to change stuff to have what's the default behaviour elsewhere.

SirTapTap, to arknights
@SirTapTap@mastodon.social avatar

The...censorship? In #arknights is so clumsy I can't tell if it's even censorship.

Rope's end of battle line was def changed, it used to be "the dead guys don't need this stuff anymore, right?" now it's "enemies"

Utage's deployment line is "itadakimas'!" but the english line is "moving out!"

...but several other lines clearly suggest she eats people/enemies

Blue poison's line about melting away remains with poison was also softened but like...it's still melting.

Weird. Why.

Besides decaf coffee, what's a viable alternative for coffee? Seems everything I see focus on 'giving you energy' but with a shtt taste, instead of something that taste good like coffee, but that you can drink in the evening.

Wanted to get some cassettes on bandcamp but... CAD$13 for the cassette, CAD$24 for shipping? I don't think so, sorry :BlobhajSadReach:
