Deleting my Twitter account. I've been here two years now and I was barely using Twitter anyway. Made an account there back in October 2010 and while it has been a positive experience for me, it clearly went downhill when Elon took over. (it was getting worse before that, it just got accelerated)

Geeks of Mastodon, C writers and API whisperers, are you bored and without a short project? I would love for #CURL to be able to list Samba directories. Last year I made a PR allowing for local directories listing and wanted to do the the same for smb, but without success. I think succeeding requires knowledge of Windows APIs. I can provide some help getting it merged.

Another app I didn't know yet. ๐ฅณ My own device has a CustomROM installed and is rooted (so nearly no unused apps are installed/pre-installed), but probably useful to deblout some family devices.

@Smojo unfortunately, they're unlikely to really cover "the whole repo". Should we one day cover half of it, we're lucky I guess. But yeah, always aim a little higher, right ๐
And glad to know these welcome toots are helpful, thanks!
@Rako_Lohgar ๐ข Muss ja kein Pixel sein. Bei mir laufen die Gerรคte auch, bis sie physisch auseinanderfallen (main driver ist noch immer ein Fairphone 2 von 2015 โ Dank LineageOS mit Android 11). Ich weiร jetzt nicht welches Gerรคt Du hast, aber ein CustomROM kรถnnte Dir vielleicht zu einer aktuelleren Android-Version helfen. Lineage deckt ziemlich viel ab, und DivestOS auch viele รคltere, die LOS nicht mehr supported (wenn ich mich da jetzt richtig erinnere)โฆ
@Rako_Lohgar Das ist strange. Mal bei DivestOS geschaut? Hm, schade: die haben nur 2s und 4. Aber schau mal bei XDA rein, da scheint es ein paar ROMs mit Android 12/13 zu geben: xdaforums.com/f/xiaomi-mi-mix-โฆ โ oder gleich bei LOS fรผr Android 13: download.lineageos.org/devicesโฆ (lineage-21.0-20241117-nightly-perseus-signed.zip klingt doch "relativ aktuell", oder?)

Really happy with how my latest embroidery project turned out. I used a pattern from a magazine (credit to www.lucyfreeman.co.uk) Learned some new techniques, my favourite being sewing with multiple different colour threads on the same needle to blend colours together!
I have enjoyed Mike Duncan's Revolutions Podcast for years. This fall though he is shipping a fictional piece about a revolution on Mars in the 2200s. Having listened to his historical accounts, I do quite like him using the same tone with a fictional revolution.
History doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes as they say.
It was incredibly strange to hear the start of the Mars story, in the exact same format and voice as the ten revolutions covered in the main show, but I quickly got into it. He's a great storyteller.
(Recap: I founded the curl project, I am still the lead developer and maintainer) When asking curl to get a URL it'll send the output to stdout by default.
This makes curl is perfect for checking checksums (curl ... | sha256sum -) and checking API results and I always use curl for that. This also makes curl harder to use for downloading files, so I always use wget for that. I's good to have a choice, and to have different tools available for different situations.
I always feel embarrassed, alone at home in my office with nobody watching me of course, when I run curl, see it dump my file to stdout and then use wget instead because I cannot immediately remember how to properly make a file with curl, even though I could spend 30 seconds looking it up. ๐

"The Cyber Monday hype is just another method by marketers and advertisers to keep you buying. ... At Tutanota we have decided not to join the Cyber Monday hype. Instead of advertising regular discounts, we prefer a pricing strategy of a fair and transparent low-priced standard offer. To put it frankly, for being able to drop the price on Cyber Monday, we would have to raise the standard Premium price in the first place. ... Having a low entry price is essential so that anyone has the chance to upgrade and benefit from Tutanota's Premium features."

@stalpomi Hi there :) Unfortunately, everyone else is doing Black Friday promotion and a lot of users are jumping on the deal bandwagon or waiting for Black Friday. If we don't do anything now, they'll go to the competition... However, we have planned the offer so that most existing users can also benefit - not just new customers. I hope you understand that.

I ran UnixBench (github.com/kdlucas/byte-unixbeโฆ) on my new Quartz64 SBC (RK3566 SoC, quad-core ARM Cortex-A55 CPU, 4 GB RAM, 64 GB eMMC). I ended up running it four times, with different settings of the Linux CPU frequency governor. Here are the results, in the order that I obtained them:
I ran it with the schedutil governor twice to make sure the first result wasn't a fluke, because what really stood out to me about the first result was how far the Pipe-based Context Switch test lagged behind the others on the single-core run. Bear in mind that the baseline is a SPARCstation 20-61, a 90s machine with a CPU clock frequency of no more than 200 MHz (if Wikipedia is correct). 2/?
Regardless of CPU frequency scaling, it's clear that context switching performance hasn't improved as fast as raw computing performance. That's no surprise. But when comparing the results, it seems that the Pipe-based Context Switch test, when running in single-core mode, doesn't cause the schedutil governor to scale up the clock frequency beyond the minimum. So I guess that governor, at least on that processor, wouldn't be good for workloads that are heavy on context switching. 3/?
I forgot to mention, this is on Debian 12 (bookworm), using the Debian generic ARM64 kernel (currently 6.1.0-27-arm64). It's nice that this SBC has decent support in the mainline kernel, at least for the functionality I currently need. 4/?
I'm going to boot my M1 Mac mini into Linux (Fedora Asahi Remix), run UnixBench there with the different CPU frequency governors, and see what the results look like. I'm sure the M1 is in a different performance category than the RK3566, though they're both ARM64.
BTW, this is an improvised thread, not an artificially split-up long post. 5/?
I just remembered, though, that the Apple Silicon SoCs have two kinds of cores, performance and efficiency cores. That makes a generic benchmark like UnixBench less meaningful, unless I can pin it to one type of core or the other. 6/?
Going back to the Quartz64 SBC, if I correctly understand the intended use case of the ARM Cortex-A55 microarchitecture from Wikipedia, then the RK3566 SoC in the Quartz64 effectively only has efficiency cores, not performance cores. 7/?
Switches to the kernel context took a big perf hit when spectre/meltdown mitigations were put in place. Those impacted older/slower CPUs more. More caches and predictors and such need to be flushed before the switch is safe to continue. (Unclear if your particular device has these mitigations but this is a larger point about perf scaling over time)

Changelog: ๐ฆ feat: add support for MastodonRedirect; ๐ฆ feat: export/import app settings to/from JSON; ๐ฆ feat: export contact list from profile; ๐ฆ feat: allow changing markup mode in post creation; ๐ฆ fix: retain scrolling state after navigation; ๐ฆ fix: newlines after titles in Markdown preview; ๐ฆ fix: avoid self mention when replying; ๐ฆ fix: retrieve source to edit post; ๐ฆ enhancement: populate current app icon value in settings; ๐ฆ chore: update manual and project documentation; ๐ฆ 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: ๐ฆ feat: add support for alternate (classic) and monochrome app icon; ๐ฆ fix: rendering images of different heights in carousels; ๐ฆ 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).

@๐ป๐๐๐๐ ๐ฆ๐ง๐ปโ๐ป๐ @RaccoonForFriendica I always add my contacts to various circles. In the contact settings, I also specify that the contacts are only displayed in circles and channels. In the browser, this means that only posts from hashtags are displayed in the normal feed and posts from contacts are displayed in the corresponding circles. Is it possible to specify this in the app as well?
@Thomas super-interesting question! Raccoon uses Friendica's Mastodon APIs to fetch the "home" timeline (GET v1/timelines/home, docs here).
Friendica has indeed extended Mastodon APIs in a really clever ways so that, for example, the home timeline can be adjusted more to the liking of users, e.g. using the with_muted and/or exclude_replies query params (see here for docs).
However I do not see any mention of a way to exclude posts from contacts you have added to a circle with that particular option to "mute" them from your timeline. My fear is that, unless there is some query parameter for that, there is very little I can do client-side.
I CC @Informa Pirata into this, since he knows Friendica far better than me and maybe has some insights to share.
There are several aspects (like account delegation, just to name the biggest one) which are not easily/entirely accessible to third party apps.
@โ๏ธ freezr โ๏ธ era un problema della 0.1.1 che ho risolto nella 0.2.0. Ti posso chiedere di controllare la versione da "Informazioni applicazione" per favore? Se si presenta anche nella 0.2.0 non riesco a riprodurlo ma verifico.
Non รจ ancora disponibile perรฒ ho notato un dettaglio che dovreste tenere presente...
Io so mezzo ciecato e ho i caratteri enormi, per questo la mia barra per editare il testo va oltre il viewport; quindi il pulsante di invio deve essere di tipo "sticky", inoltre se usi markdown quella barra non ce l'hai per niente... ๐ค
@โ๏ธ freezr โ๏ธ sรฌ sรฌ messo sempre visibile a destra mentre il resto scorre, e anche la barra messa sempre visibile ora anche quando usi "testo semplice". Nella prossima versione ci sarร tutto!
Grazie. L'unico problema sono i tasti di navigazione che si spengono, se voglio uscire o cambiare applicazione devo premere a caso. Quando scrivo le risposte, invece, sono visibili.
@dirtynello grazie per il feedback, ci do un'occhiata ma non sono sicuro di aver capito il problema... ti posso chiedere di mandarmi uno screenshot? capisco che i pulsanti della barra di navigazione di sistema non sono cliccabili ma non riesco a riprodurlo.
@dirtynello ok, sto iniziando a capire! ti posso chiedere con piรน precisione per favore: - tema di sistema nelle impostazioni di Android (chiaro o scuro); - navigazione di sistema nelle impostazioni di Android (pulsanti o gesti); - tema UI nelle impostazioni dell'app (chiaro/scuro/nero/sistema); - se "Edge to edge" รจ abilitato nelle impostazioni dell'app; - versione di Android.
@dirtynello secondo me dipende dalla versione di Android, ricordo che anche nell'app per Lemmy avevo avuto problemi simili.
Aggiungo nelle impostazioni una nuova voce: "Tema barra notifiche di sistema e navigazione" che puรฒ assumere i valori Solido/Opaco/Trasparente. Il default nella versione attuale รจ trasparente. A partire dalla prossima versione, potrai provare ad impostare uno degli altri due valori e vedere se la situazione migliora (mio consiglio: Opaco).
@โ๏ธ freezr โ๏ธ potresti mandarmi il link al post e uno screenshot per favore? i sondaggi in sola lettura dovrebbero almeno essere visualizzati e l'ultima volta che mi sono imbattuto un un sondaggio sembrava "ok"...
