@Aaron the war left its marks all over the place, they are still visible. Part of the identity of the city. But things got better.

@Aaron it is a nice city indeed!

I needed to merge a couple of webserver logfiles, sort them by date and time; then run logstalgia on them, headless (tricky!), and ffmpeg the output into something usable.

Thankfully other people solved most of these problems already. ;)

Perhaps I should write this up.

@mkb @Gargron @er1n I'm with Er1n on this. There's no reason to hide the bit about decentralization. For some people it's important, the rest will ignore it perhaps. It won't drive anyone away.

Perhaps there's a way to put it in nicer words, something related to how there is no single corporation controlling it, etc?

@twitter I use FORMAT C:

Making a logstalgia visualization video of a pretty high-traffic day on a site we run.

Hypnotizing...

others: what a cool poolside bar, you can stay in the water while ordering drinks!

me: a cash register runs Windows XP

@bobstechsite @Gargron leave "Toot!" alone, pretty please.

If somebody is not going to try Mastodon out because of this word, they wouldn't have tried it anyway.

"Toot" is an important part of this community's identity. Somebody doesn't like it, it's their problem.

We should not cave to people with such silly issues.

Seriously, there's an elephant right below "Toot!", it's clear what's it about.

@chuck I am not sure what you're driving at?

Google used to *require* a phone number when setting up 2FA.

Now it doesn't.

So you can now have 2FA enabled on your account *without* tying any phone number to it.

@chuck if the phone number is not tied to the account, the SIM vector doesn't exist, obviously.

@chuck yeah, the SIM cloning and general telecoms bullcrap is one of the reasons I was super-annoyed with Google (and still am with others) insisting on tieing a phone number to the account in order to enable 2FA.

@xeno @cypherpunk exactly.

And for me that's already a decent outcome of GDPR.
