I found a fresh new mobile web hell: this site has an auto scrolling carousel, but with differing number of entries per slide, so the height varies on mobile. And it continues rotating even after scrolling past it, causing the page to jump up and down. Excellent work web team.

If I record my entire Greedfall playthrough, I think I'm going to end up with 1 TB of video. Do people actually do this?

Telling ublock I'm allowed to have a little javascript as a treat.

Eight years ago was such a simpler time.

Dodging people on the sidewalk like boss level frogger.

That the Undertaker is still wrestling is the most alarming news of the day.

I wonder if that time somebody called to ask if my refrigerator was running counts as a cyber attack.

I started playing Greedfall after all. Literally the first quest is to hunt down an alchemist selling a fake miracle cure in the middle of a plague.

Oh, max noice, running fahclient on my debian box crashed, then triggered a kernel panic. Probably hardware something, I never quite loaded it this much.

People doing technical analysis of turnip prices... The trailing indicator shows a steady decline ready for a breakout after touching the low support, but be cautious it's not a sinking trap.

Keep yourself safe from honkbombing with this one weird trick.

My life is a flat circle of monitoring CPU temperatures and checking coolant levels.

so my selfhosted spotify is objectively worse in almost every aspect, and the hosting costs about the same as the subscription


but it's FOSS tho

Closing in on a million fold bucks.

Today's firefox fortune:

###!!! [Parent][DispatchAsyncMessage] Error: PBackgroundIDBDatabase::Msg_PBackgroundIDBTransactionConstructor Value error: message was deserialized, but contained an illegal value

Vendor bloatware strikes again.

New data center's policy seems to be to resolve all problem tickets immediately, then tell me there's no problem. I guess they're doing the important part, fixing the problem, but it's kinda awkward.

Please do not use a comcast.net email address to purchase a license key.

Wish I could learn the story behind that. (https://unraid.net/pricing)

I need a cooldown timer for my bookmarks so I don't keep instictively clicking the same site on autopilot every time I get distracted.

Windows "power usage impact" column is a nice idea, but when folding@home and chrome receive the same rating, "very high", I'm not sure how useful it is. Chrome is a pig, but I really doubt the impact on my electric bill is the same from both programs.

A month earlier, someone in Bird's IT department had been tasked by his superiors to write a script that would allow the company to instantly shut down all of a user's accounts – computer, email, Slack – with the click of a single button, according to an employee. He was told the script would be used for general off-boarding rather than the mass layoff that he ended up being included in.

Digging your own grave. Ouch.

today i clicked on an email button on a web site and it opened a new message in my email client with no set recipient but with body text: "Hello, I invite you to visit website.tld"

How did they know I only have one plant? Are they watching me?

Spotted some deviants at the grocery store. Haven't they heard masks aren't accepted in American society?

Will QUIC replace steam DRM???

Got my vitamin D for the day.

Good news for the gays. You only need to go three months without sex to donate blood now. Nothing like a crisis to bring not quite equality to the people.

Oh, oops, opened a youtube tab in the private window. Was wondering what happened to my dude linus.

Wapo back on the masks are useless train. By my count they are now 4-1 against.

Desktop draws 420W folding on all slots. I can even feel warm air if I lean close enough.

The latest chapter in the hacked openbsd box is a surprise twist. The wifi!

This is mostly a javascript apps in the browser are terrible tire fire, but ends with a good point that hiding complexity with more complexity, in any context, is just kicking the can.

@garybernhardt: When sourcemaps were introduced, worries about them were frequently shouted down with "The browser automatically applies the sourcemap, so you see the correct lines, so it's fine." This was wrong.

@garybernhardt: Every web app, including https://www.executeprogram.com, has to deal with tons of errors caused by outdated browsers, broken extensions, etc. We have a 422-line (and growing) file that catalogs errors that we ignore. Here's an example entry.https://pic.twitter.com/MfKDYinUye

@garybernhardt: Catalog entries like that one specify two data points that must both match: the error message (errorMessageSubstring) and the error stack (stackSubstring). If they match, we show an error page with ourMessage and don't log the error in Bugsnag. Spot the bug in that screenshot.

@garybernhardt: The bug is that it says "codemirror.js", which is a string that doesn't exist in the error stack, because the code has been mangled by the JS toolchain. The "codemirror.js" string does exist in the sourcemap... which isn't loaded when errors are thrown.

@garybernhardt: There's a tradeoff being made here. We want small assets, so we strip out all information that could aid debugging. I'm not interested in arguing about whether the tradeoff is good or bad, or whether we should've accepted this complexity as a permanent part of the web.

@garybernhardt: I am interested in arguing against the claim that started the thread: "The browser automatically applies the sourcemap, so you see the correct lines, so it's fine."

@garybernhardt: The people making that argument imagined the most obvious use case, and it seemed OK, so they were satisfied. "There's an abstraction, and it seems to work in the simplest case, so no problem exists" is a pervasive and often catastrophic way to judge a system.

The verge seems to have comments disabled on covid stories. One wonders why they don't do the same for all stories.

Maybe vulnerability disclosure timelines should be measured in terms of epidemic doublings, at least for critical software until this is over.

Trying to watch Ozark season 2 and I have no idea who anybody is or what they're doing, but not really feeling like rewatching season 1.

My day was not complete until I read the Financial Times explanation of the Karen meme.

"How to stop zoombombing from ruining your life"

linux desktop issue of the day: when I switch tabs in firefox, the firefox window on the second monitor changes to my wallpaper for a moment, but only if either instance of firefox was on a page that had a gif on it

A black and white dua lipa video.

Plug'n'Play is bloat. We had to set our IRQs, DMAs and fiddle with config.sys and autoexec.bat for hours and we loved it.

Season finale of the Magicians should be out March 32.

I like the HN threads where everybody posts the price of gas in their town because it's the best way for people interested in local price variations to find that information.

Still haven't quite figured out what's wrong with Update Person activities. Oh, well, pleroma picks up changes eventually and mastodon just whatever.

This leads to a minimum compile cost of about 4.0 seconds (loading precompiled header files in clang-cl is fairly expensive)

oof.

Checking in on the freepers, definitely handling the current situation well...

It has been 12 hours since my last fold.

Fantastic user manual with my exercise ball.

"What if your ball is egg-shaped?
When the ball is wider in one direction than the other by 3 cm or even more, we view it as an egg-shaped ball. An egg-shaped ball is not normal. Many reasons result in egg-shaped ball."

Uptick in car break ins. Police advise locking the doors. Uhm, duh, the thieves are breaking in because the doors are locked.
