For Goodbye Stranger there is an edited version that is often played on radio and found on "best of" that is shorter as they edited out a few bar of electric piano soloing (in the bridge).

It's not even like the wanted to erase words like in "Creep" (Radiohead song)

Today we are mourning our sweetest prince Jake the Bird.

His only job in life was to be loved by everyone and his loving personality made every bird and human fall for him instantly.

In all, he gave Fiona, Freddie, Beemo, Bonnie, A. and me nearly nine years of sweet companionchirp.

All that while living with a chronic illness, that while manageable, could at times be extremely annoying. Not once did he let that impact the affection for his flock.

We all miss you terribly 💙🖤

I have been pushing for #Inkscape to remove/decommission it's Twitter account. But I didn't want to do it unilaterally, bossing people about, but through reasoned policy that can be applied to other captured banana-pants social media platforms.

So I've drafted a policy, which I'm interested in having more people look at as it's going to be one of those gnarly things that's important to get right:

Until now, if you lost or broke your phone, your Signal message history was gone, a real challenge for everyone whose most important conversations happen in Signal. So, with careful design & development, we’re rolling out opt-in secure backups.

Secure backups will let you save an archive of your Signal messages remotely in privacy-preserving form, refreshed daily.

Now available in the latest Android beta release, rolling out to iOS & Desktop soon

Just because you add some ARIA and call something “accessible” doesn’t actually mean it is.

Looking at a self-described “Accessible, high-perf” infinite scroll (it really just starts over) that is janky as fuck, doesn’t take keyboard focus (in Safari), uses scroll snap to awful effect, and lets the scrollbar thumb become a liar.

How’s your day?

would that our local police were as committed to arresting asshole pickup truck drivers as the Prince George RCMP was to arresting this guy driving a toy Barbie jeep

New Privacy Guides article ⛔
by me:

Chat Control is one of the
most terrifying proposal for dystopian authoritarianism the Western world has seen in years.

We need your help to fight it ✊🇪🇺

For democracy,
For privacy,
And for all other human rights,
We cannot afford to lose this battle.

📩 If you are European (EU):

Contact your MEPs this week before Friday, September 12th, to tell them to oppose Chat Control (more information in the linked article).

🗣️ If you are outside of the EU:

Spread the word! Tell your friends and family in the EU about it! Make noise on social media! This will affect you too.

> Notable fix - thumbnail generation for 200MP HEIC images

who the hell is uploading 200MP HEIC images?!

I didn't look into it yet but I heard that the replacement for the Dept of Labor after Trump fired the last one for "fake jobs numbers" released their report and it was the same numbers essentially

When I heard this I started uncontrollably laughing. He couldn't even find a patsy to give him fake numbers?!

To me, the worst part of what is being called the "largest supply chain attack in history" is the fact that there are over "2.6 billion weekly downloads of those NPM packages"

What the actual fuck?! [says a guy who used to curate SQL queries because the results took too long to deliver over 9600bd]

Ban the leaf blower.

They’re not just loud—they unleash a jagged mechanical howl, a pitch that swings between jet engine and chainsaw, cutting through walls and windows. It’s a sound that never settles, a rising and falling whine that forces itself into your head until you can’t think. Noise pollution at its most aggressive.

Then there’s the exhaust. Two-stroke engines that spit out more pollution in an hour than a car does all day. All so someone can clear leaves a little faster.

The only reason they’re still legal is because politicians chose the landscaping lobby over the public. That’s it.

Thread follows.

FreeBSD jails have an annoying quirk where if you don't specify jail_list in /etc/rc.conf it doesn't show you the jail names as they're starting.

This is not a solvable problem without a fairly large overhaul of how the jails are started. When no jails_list is provided, it assumes "_ALL" as the default value and this makes the jail(8) command parse all the jail config files and start them all up.

Then after startup, it prints all their names.

And then after printing their names, it writes their pidfiles.

This also means that if the startup crashes part way through it leaves jails running with no pid files which means the next time you try to start the jails you'll get errors about jails already running.
