Hey web developers, this may seem like a dumb question, but when I was a young warthog you would link to a directory (just a simple "a href"), and if that directory had an index.html page it would assume that's what you wanted. Now I'm just getting one of those "Index of" pages (with that index.html page visible!) is it because it's running locally instead of a proper web server? Has this just overall changed and I didn't know? #programming#html#development#webdevelopment#webdevelopers#web
@RomanOnARiver Yeah, that's totally up to the webserver. There is no concept in HTTP (afaik) of "serving a directory". HTTP is text-in, text-out. If you "browse" your filesystem locally with your browser, then it will likely list the directory. If you use a webserver it depends on its configuration. Yes, serving index.html when accessing a /my/directory/ "path" might be a default, but doesn't have to be.
Dir Ampel hätte im Cannabis Gesetz auch eine Regel einführen sollen, dass 100m um Windräder nicht gekifft werden darf und wir hätten in Bayern plötzlich 500 neue Windräder.
@besendorf Gute Idee. Nach meiner naiven Logik dürfte der süßliche Grasqualm sicherlich auf Dauer die Gewinde der Rotoren verkleben. Da muss sich doch eine gute Begründung raus stricken lassen.
I'll forever die on the hill that #Matrix and especially #Element must support stickers and sticker packs in a first class manner to succeed in the mainstream.
It is my opinion that “spoilers” and “startrek discovery” are oxymorons. Because that show has not just “minimal” but outfight no respect for even the most basic logic or consistency. You can’t spoil it because it’s absolutely incoherent. It’s a work about feelings that ignores any in-world logic; and as such has no stakes. Nothing matters because any magic bullshit will be pulled out of a bag to satisfy an emotional arc when the writers have no skill in any other aspect of writing.
@knurd42 völlig off-topic, aber wenn ich dein „(acct. 2/4)“ sehe (was ich völlig supporte, nicht falsch verstehen), spiele ich mit dem Gedanken bei mir einfach „(acct. 3/7)“ rein zu schreiben, mysteriös zu bleiben, und die Suche nach den (vermeintlichen) Alts meinen Followers zu überlassen 😈
Is this a good place to talk about LinkedIn? 🤔 How do you deal with connection requests by people you've never met or talked to before? Are there any "good" reasons to accept those?
@krakenbuerger “why” – that’s exactly the question. Why should I?
No, more seriously: I’m a very low-key LI user, so I had to check… My DMs are open, meaning you can send me an introductory message anytime. No need to establish a long-term connection immediately.
Like on the street/in a café: small talk first, we can still exchange numbers/business cards later. Why collect “dead” contacts?
@rachel Word is probably not the right tool for the job. You should try writing monochrome first and then colorize afterwards either in Photoshop or print it and use crayons. Just a wild guess.
"Due to almost nobody actually using these features we introduced some years ago, we will now remove them to make our code more accessible and maintainable and also to remove possible attack vectors" is something I would really LOVE to read more often in release notes of FOSS projects :)
@jwildeboer I dunno. Everytime GNOME does something like that — they went for UX simplifications quite a bit in the last decade or so — there was usually an outcry. Maybe of a loud minority but still. It’s not like people like stuff being removed.
Da gerade #Congstar usw. hier die Runde macht. Was ist denn der derzeit „angenehmste“ (im Sinne von: wenig shady Patterns) Prepaid-Anbieter? Preis ist zweitrangig, aber sollte sich natürlich im Rahmen des Üblichen bewegen.
Wir haben hier die unterschiedlichsten Anbieter in der Familie am Start — Prepaid, quasi-Vertrag-halb-Prepaid, Uraltverträge, und C. schien bisher als gute Option. Oder muss ich in die Untiefen der Vergleichsportale, oder sind im Prinzip alle gleich blöd?
@maxrdz I can see how this might be peculiar and could be seen as a potential source of misunderstanding.
But in my 20y+ experience as software developer I cannot think of a single situation where this was a problem.
I wonder how we (subconsciously) solve this, though. In written communication it's easy. Just use "0". When speaking, I think we either pronunce it English null vs. German null, or we use a variant of empty, not there, undefined, n/a, missing, without, etc.
@publictorsten Videospiele. Viele Twitch-Streamerïnnen werden ja von Publishern bezahlt/gesponsort, Spiele anzuspielen. Finde ich bei voller Transparenz okay, und habe da sicher auch schon ein, zweimal ein Spiel für mich entdeckt.
Weitere Beispiele würden mir spontan nicht einfallen. Die anderen üblichen Sponsorships (oft Ernährung, Drinks oder VPNs und so) finde ich eher shady. Machen meine „Lieblingsstreamer“ aber auch nicht bzw. ist von vornherein Ausschlusskriterium für mich.
One thing that the fediverse does not currently provide is the avalanche of indonesian dick pics I was used to on X. Not saying I miss it but it's been such a ritual each day that I kinda do.
