@RaccoonForFriendica a new version 0.2.0 has been released.
Changelog:
🦝 feat: add support for MastodonRedirect;
🦝 feat: export/import app settings to/from JSON;
🦝 feat: export contact list from profile;
🦝 feat: allow changing markup mode in post creation;
🦝 fix: retain scrolling state after navigation;
🦝 fix: newlines after titles in Markdown preview;
🦝 fix: avoid self mention when replying;
🦝 fix: retrieve source to edit post;
🦝 enhancement: populate current app icon value in settings;
🦝 chore: update manual and project documentation;
🦝 chore: typo in Fastlane metadata.
For those who have lost it, there has been a 0.1.1 in the meantime, which was mainly due to a metadata issue which blocked the submission on F-Droid, but it also included:
🦝 feat: add support for alternate (classic) and monochrome app icon;
🦝 fix: rendering images of different heights in carousels;
🦝 fix: rendering GIFs (or images with unbound constraints).
After the app gets published on the stores, we're going to move towards a more predictable release cycle (e.g. monthly stable versions and weekly betas).
Hope you are having fun on Friendica (or Mastodon) and as always #livefasteattrash

"Tesla's vehicles have the highest fatal accident rate among all car brands in America, according to a recent study that analyzed data from the U.S. Fatality Analysis Reporting System."
Tesla's fatality rate is double the national average. Driver behavior is a contributing factor to the high number of deaths (i.e. shitty-driving assholes are more likely to buy Teslas and die or kill someone else while driving them).

Another Brexit fiasco.... British cheeses failed to get to the World Cheese Awards in Portugal as they failed to clear customs in time (now being from a non-EU country).
In the scale of the disasters of Brexit its not going to to be a big thing (although it will be for the frustrated cheese makers), but is emblematic of how myopic the Brexiters were about the impact of their successful plan to leave Europe....

Firefox is passing on google's request, just as it would for a website that wanted to use your mic.
I've reached the end of my first full week of using a terminal-only interface for my personal computing in 2024.
It has been quite a week.
I've had to pick up git, which is a whole new learning curve for me, and my knowledge of tmux has increased rapidly too.
But, in terms of getting done what I actually wanted to do? It has been absolutely fine... right up until the point when it was not, and then I struggled.
I'm writing notes as I go, for a future blogpost.
Month of LibreOffice, November 2024 - Half-way point! - The Document Foundation Blog
Yes, we’re half-way through the Month of LibreOffice, November 2024. And already, 206 contributors have already won cool LibreOffice sticker packs! Details on how to claim them will be provided at the end of the month, but if you don’t see your name …Mike Saunders (The Document Foundation)
Hardcoded shortcuts in #LibreOffice are still a joke in 2024:
- F1 still cannot be modified. (I hate you so much for this.)
- Ctrl-P is Print, except editing shortcuts shows it's not actually bound to anything. Lulz?
Thankfully at least one can modify Ctrl-P to do something actually useful, like Export Directly as PDF.
But then… the Print tooltip still mentions Ctrl-P, the Export Directly as PDF doesn't.
A restart later, both tooltips mention Ctrl-P.
Lulz!

Super nice #macOS related fixes upcoming in #LibreOffice💪❤️
macOS dictation had a problem where dictated text would only show, once you make a pause speaking. That was inconvenient as it is much easier to gather your thoughts when spoken text appears immediately.
Another issue that has been ongoing for many many years was, that when you scrolled the sheet in calc and while scrolling was still ongoing pressed cmd for some operation, the zoom level would change. This extremely annoying behavior is no longer.
Both fixes done by #PatrickLuby of #NeoOffice - we should all thank him!
Will take some time for those to trickly down into stable, but 25.2 will bring those fixes for sure.

@Tusky i love you, but you have to stop throwing away drafts when reopening the app.
Several times a month I lose my posts while switching been apps to copy text snippets and so on. It doesn't happen all the time, which is super frustrating. I convince myself it's okay, probably was just user error, it's stopped now, and then 💣🕳️
i can't do this anymore, sorry

How about changing our messaging to: "Your crippling BNPL debt is a direct consequence of Google, Meta and ByteDance knowing every fucking thing about you"
You're beating a dead horse. There is absolutely nothing you can do that is going to convince most people to use #XMPP because it is the Linux of messaging platforms, It may be better, it may be more private and more secure, but people don't care about that. All they want is something super easy to set up and use, and they want to be on the platform that friends and family are using. And no, they have no desire whatsoever to host a server for friends and family, that's waaaay to complicated for them (even it it literally involved entering one command at a command prompt it would still be to complicated). And they actually trust a big corporation more to keep their conversations private than some XMPP service they have never heard of.
If the day ever comes when they do give a rat's ass about privacy it will be too late because by the the big corporations and the government will already know everything about them. But most people seem to think they have nothing to hide so why should they be concerned about privacy? And if the last election taught us anything it is that far too many people are totally gullible.

Reminder to everyone: Mastodon counts all links as 23 characters. Even if you use a link shortener.
If you use a shortener, all you do is obscure the link's destination (and make the link dependent on that shortening service). Many of us will avoid clicking on such obscured links. You're almost certainly *lowering* your engagement, traffic, whatever.
Just link directly. It doesn't cost you any characters.
Yikes! Other authors, be very careful and make sure you, or your agent, keeps an eye on contracts! Because mine is more experienced, he spotted the below right away, but keep an eye out for the below.
1. Do not give publishers permission to train their AI on your work, even internally. WTF? A publisher tried to sneak this in!
2. Despite what publishers tell you, demand your audiobook should be done by humans and your cover should be done by humans. Publishers love AI despite what they tell you!
3. Do not let publishers dictate giving you a lower advance *because* you don't have a platform. This is bullshit, especially since they have all the PR connections.
4. Do not let them say anything about how many hours you should spend promoting your book. Make this low as possible or even eliminate it altogether. They have all the PR connections. You don't. Make it their fault you don't make back their advance, not you, because they can decline to publish you in the future and you won't have numbers to prove they failed in PR.
5. Don't let publishers tell you virtual book tours don't generate returns on investment and isn't worth having their publicist do. No, fuck that shit! Because my agent is experienced, he said fuck that straight away! If you want your releases to be virtual, say so!
And finally,
6. Do not let them give you a low advance. A lower advance says they don't have to invest in you as much to get back that investment. They should do the bulk of the publishing work, not you, so always ask for higher advances, always! Even if you don't think you'll make back that advance. Go higher. This will force them to do something about their investment in you!
This is an experiment. Please boost.
Here's the idea: This post is going first to my followers, then, if they boost it, to other people. This domain has been registered for only this experiment. I should see in my web server's logs when mastodon instances start crawling the site for info. Then maybe also some curious humans.
I just want to play with my monitoring a bit :)

Coming to the end of a rewatch of #Babylon5. As I watch G'kar's closing message to Ta'lon (including his mention of what he was like when he first arrived… oh, memories of the first few episodes!), I suddenly realize:
The two shows are almost completely dissimilar, *but*… his arc reminds me of Eleanor Shellstrop's in #TheGoodPlace. Both have that thing where the person they become by the end has grown *so much*, it's nearly impossible to put into words. It aches.

@DavidGoldfield Just thinking hard about the last few scenes always makes me cry, but I just finished a rewatch of "Objects at Rest" (which got me bawling at the scene where Sheridan and the new crew look at each other through their respective windows as he and Delenn's White Star is about to leave — Goddess, so much kudos to Christopher Franke for the heartbreaking music!) and am about to do "Sleeping In Light". Again.
I have tissues ready.
