Hey Gang...

Trying to do some damage control for a relative that is stuck on Windows.

What's a good Windows email client nowadays, something with good calendar integration, etc., multiple accounts?

That IS NOT Outlook.

Thanks.

Ok, native English speakers, clear this out for me: how do you pronounce “Forgejo”?
Is it like “Forsh-joe”?
Is it “Forge(like “forget”)-joe”?
Is it “For-je-hoe”?
Honestly, for non-native speakers it’s sometimes a guessing game, and since you probably never heard it from a native speaker there’s a high chance you completely mispronounce the word. 😅

shower thought: "España" has an ñ, "Česko" has a č... it would have been fun if Germany in German was "Deutßchland", Poland in Polish was "Połska" and Portugal in Portuguese was "Portugãl"

I actually tried it in my first Zig project, and it survived migration across a few hosting services. You can still find the bug I wrote this way if you clone https://codeberg.org/Maarrk/dedupiacz and run git-bug pull; git-bug bug

Excited to announce that the @EUCommission has updated it's follow buttons on the website footer!
What's that first platform there? Could that be #Mastodon?
And where did the link to #X go?
All the posts and comments here on Mastodon calling for this, trust me we read them!

A screenshot from the European commission website footer. the text "Follow us" is followed by the following icons: - Mastodon - LinkedIn - BlueSky - Facebook - YouTube - Link to more platforms Underneath is says: Report an IT vulnerability Languages on our website Accessibility

#Linux peeps. For desktop apps, what’s your preferred distribution type

The convenience of synchronisation between devices are the most common argument that I hear from friends why they are so invested in the respective walled gardens. But the same advantages can be obtained with old well-tested and open standards. Example: get an SMS with e-mail, add it to contacts and then have it autocomplete in @thunderbird@mastodon.online connecting to whichever mail provider your heart desires, thanks to the magic of CardDAV and IMAP. No need for Giant Mail :)

It made me really appreciate the composability of CLI when I could type git remote add forgejo .../$(basename $(pwd)).git && git push ... to get that micro-automation going.

#TIL

Same thing happened to me with #git and Linux earlier. Now that I think about it, I'm surprised I learned gdb CLI so late.

The original is written in #OCaml with quite involved setup, but #TIL about two single-executable #Rust implementations: Kodama and Weibian.

I'm still trying them out, but luckily both support @typst@mastodon.social so at least I can keep a common content format between them and final document

Well, once I became the person to guess that and I'm simply translating some textures with #Cpp everything is butter smooth again.

Also, I noticed you prefer multiple specialised services, but I don't see anything that would replace my other uses of Nextcloud: non-media files, calendar, contacts, kanban, office suite... As I'm writing this, I'm seeing probably SilverBullet could handle them all xD

My use case for Nextcloud is basically a dropbox to share files with people,

I have this exact situation, where I have a Pangolin tunnel (used to be Cloudflare before) and everything gets routed there. I'm having a .local domain resolve to the server in LAN, but this requires a self-signed certificate so only my personal devices use it.

One of my favorite quotes ever, from why the lucky stiff:

"when you don't create things, you become defined by your tastes rather than ability. your tastes only narrow & exclude people. so create."

Silly #Poll: where are you along the #neckbeard pipeline?

(Note: the neckbeard is metaphorical. No actual facial hair required)

Also, please remember #DanesLaw: no matter how carefully someone attempts to construct a poll, the very first comment will usually expose a glaring oversight. That's just how it goes.

Because everything is written in regular files, the editor can autocomplete citation keys without any special tooling - they are just sections in another file. This kind of interoperability is why simple tools like text files and #ssg are so great.

I'm not a fan of hosting it on GitHub anymore, but there are already links in various places that I can't update, so this is the reasonable thing to do.
