Another stream cos why the fuck not? Grab a drink and listen to some music while I write a guitar trainer app in Swift.
in order to do selection highlighting I'll need to handle the formatting stack in the editor itself but that shouldn't be too bad either
there are 15 formatting commands right now but most of them aren't relevant to something being edited and saved
...okay I guess not most but pretty close to most

Also if you make too much it reheats nicely
Election Day was last week, and the wins haven’t stopped. Scott Colom took Mississippi, Kansas elected a Democratic governor, and the House majority is up to 258 seats and counting. Thank you to everyone who made it happen! 🌊 https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/week-progressive-wins-november-15
@georgetakei Now that they are going to have positions of authority, we the people need to hold them accountable to effect meaningful change that benefits all Americans.
La opción Fairphone con e, me parece la mejor por ahora, pero se pasa de presupuesto!
@izarobasurko @rafapoverello @bertol @josetoni Fairphones have very poor updates and security. Fairphone sells white labelled devices from T2Mobile and does very little engineering themselves. They aren't in a position to make devices meeting our requirements.
/e/ has poor privacy and atrocious security. It lacks important standard updates with crucial patches and protections. The leadership of /e/ and Murena has repeatedly claimed hardened devices mainly benefit criminals and pedophiles...

@llamasoft_ox Very cute.
@d_rift @tinker @wendynather anyways thanks for triggering my special interest today
@ajn142 @d_rift @wendynather - Haha! This was wonderful! I'll correct the flintlock to percussion cap in the alt text. And yeah, pan flash and zip ties are all part of the metaphor XD
@fluffy I'm not afraid of AI controlling the world, I am afraid of the people controlling Gen AI controlling the world. Once people like Elon, Bezos and Zuck are able to apply their filter on all knowledge and history, we are truly heading into 1984.

Shared blocklists - these are like feeds except instead of listing communities to join it lists people to block. To to Account -> Blocklists to find this feature. Changes by the blocklist author effect all the people who subscribe to the list, causing them to block the list members. They federate, so you can subscribe to blocklists on other instances.
Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I have mixed feelings about the social/community implications of shared block lists.
It's essentially social blacklisting, and while it gives people more options for controlling what they see, I'm not entirely convinced it's healthy compared to manual blocking of users and servers on an individual level.

@Mabande @anon_opin Bluesky would be my guess. That place looked strange and stressful.
@triggersbroom @anon_opin Ah! Yes, BS seems to have picked up a lot of the ex-twitter mannerisms : /
Proposition: The "camera pointed at your face" video component of most remote meetings is usually nearly if not completely superfluous and unnecessarily intrusive. Discuss.
My observation at my employer is that people there use it very rarely, mostly when introducing new people to a group or if someone's presenting to a group, but never bother otherwise.
When my wife and I are using it at home to meet with a doctor, a therapist, financial advisors or similar, we do turn it on. Mostly so that we can pick up their facial expressions and they can pick up ours, to try to avoid miscommunicating on something important.
Wonder if this automatically contacts Apple and voids your warranty.
@paul forget the specifics now but either having a phone serviced or doing a trade-in, one of the things they checked in the diagnostics app was if the liquid sensors had tripped
I never expected to see this level of corruption, nepotism and greed at the expense of workers in the Unitedl States.

And every bit as stupid as greedy not to be able to foresee consequences.

PieFed v1.9 is released - Shared Blocklists, Auto-bans and TOTP
cross-posted from: piefed.social/…/piefed-v1-9-is-released-shared-bl…
New features
- Shared blocklists - these are like feeds except instead of listing communities to join it lists people to block. To to Account -> Blocklists to find this feature. Changes by the blocklist author effect all the people who subscribe to the list, causing them to block the list members. They federate, so you can subscribe to blocklists on other instances.
- Edit comments inline, without loading a separate page - wjs018
- Fediverse statistics at piefed.social/statistics
- 2-factor authentication (TOTP) - can be added to your account in the ‘Security’ page in your settings.
For admins
- Auto-ban based on the bans that instances you choose, with keyword matching on the ban reason. Go to /admin/users/auto_ban. Try putting ‘piefed.social’ in as the instance and ‘spam’ as the keyword filter. It’ll cut down on the work involved in running your instance SO much.
- Voting pattern graph on user profiles to help spot automated voting.
- Reset the password of any user.
- Lots of inauthentic behaviour reports for finding bots and serial downvoters, see /admin/votes and PM me for an instructional video. It’s a lot to take in but the video will explain it all.
API
- edit matrix user id when saving user profile data.
- scheduled post endpoints - wjs018
Plus a lot more bits and pieces, browse the list of recent releases in the 1.8.x line at codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/releases for details.
To upgrade from 1.8.x or earlier
git pull git checkout v1.9.x
Then,
