@Viss These guys got it... by honking a car horn as they got closer, lol.

@Kyresti Thought you might find this cool: You can ignore the clickbait headline: https://www.404media.co/fireside-project-psychedelic-support-line-study/
I don't mind the Mastodon v5 UI, looks about the same as the v4 one to me. I have the same complaint about both, which is that infinite scroll isn't infinite for me. I only look at my feed around once a week these days, and usually (v4 and v5) I get to the "end" (no more posts will load) before I get to anything I've already read.
Is there an alternative client I should be using to get manual paging, or a URL hack for the official client eg to specify a starting date?
[Self-answer in reply]
Apparently the limited home timeline posts is server-side and longstanding https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/36168#issuecomment-6592673896 I've probably just noticed it more with less frequent social media checking.
I suppose the solution is to use a feed reader instead of Mastodon to subscribe and read.

other peoples' code easily frustrates an inexperienced developer; they must be seasoned for professional use. a seasoned developer is one who has been repeatedly coated with a layer of stress which is oxidized by medium-high temperature burnout. the resultant coating allows the developer to be resistant to bullshit and helps prevent ragequit

Tomorrow I'll be volunteering as a poll worker for the US midterm elections.
I've gotta be there for 15+ hours. Can you make sure to take 15 minutes to vote?

@puzzled the world keeps sending supertankers and megacargo ships through tricky narrow passages for critical operations all around the world and periodically deal with the dire circumstamces BUT THIS TIME IT'LL BE DIFFERENT because we are SPECIAL
@SecularJeffrey Tunguska! (later, I guess)
Wiki says this is the first appearance of the oil.
Tomorrow is the mid-term elections here in the U.S.
I'm nearly sick with stress. Trump appears to be on the verge of a two-year lame duck presidency....spiked with non-stop investigations of him and everyone who works for him.
The stress is about his reaction - I am deeply worried he will simply declare the election invalid or declare martial law or both. The military has been stripped of leaders who are not 100% Trump.
I have read too much history.
@gedvondur Yep. He ain't gonna like it one bit. I wonder how dangerous his tantrum will be. 🤞

What a detestable scumbag. Perhaps it's time for an Anti-Bases Campaign annual pilgramage to Mahia? Like the one they do (did?) to Waihopai. The first step would be reaching out to the mana whenua of Mahia.

Goodreads removed RSS and some people are asking for alternatives on Reddit; maybe worth pointing to BookWyrm and NeoDB?

Both fediverse softwares that support user reviews for books, both have RSS support natively (no Piefed/Misskey bridge needed), and some comments also seem discontent with Amazon's mismanagement overall.

The election that we have been waiting two years for is tomorrow.
This could be the most consequential midterms of our lifetimes and we can’t afford to take anything for granted. 🧵
@ai6yr oh wow - i guess the prize was pretty substantial if you were considering booking a flight?

I’m specifically mentioning this because I feel like I haven't seen any real notifications about the COVID vaccine availability in the last couple of years and just decided to look it up myself so I just got the COVID/flu one-two punch.
The good news is that my hospital group usually gets the COVID vaccine later than most pharmacies, so if my place has it, most should!
@Alice did the same a few weeks ago. a little soreness at the injection site, otherwise no side effects.
@mattblaze @tonyangelo A Mister Chad, Hanging is on Line 1 for you.
@shermozle @tonyangelo Really? Those machines were HACKED? That’s huge news if true.
As I’ve mentioned here before, the grassroots progressive organization I founded, #LandofAction, has been doing election watching, a statutorily recognized and regulated activity here in #NewMexico. Https://landofaction.org 1/
This afternoon, I had an Election-Day Eve call with people from across the state who are coordinating teams of watchers in their areas. They’ve been working for over a month, organizing, scheduling, watching during early voting, and now preparing to visit the many election locations that get added for Election Day. 2/
@AbandonedAmerica so the wild thing - these are sent thru a system and there’s actually a person on the other side to answer any responses! (They’re not all this way but typically if it has a persons name like this one, that’s the case)
@onyxraven that would almost make me feel guilty if they weren't texting on behalf of Marc Molinaro
@Viss I was able to geolocate to within a quarter mile, HOWEVER, to claim the reward you had to go to the location, and i wasn't about to fly to Seattle to go hunting for this, as there were already locals in the area hunting... (ie their odds of reaching the site before I was on a plane were too high).
@ai6yr oh wow - i guess the prize was pretty substantial if you were considering booking a flight?
