Any Canadian business that uses embedded Google Maps maps had better reconsider that right now. https://globalnews.ca/news/12041171/google-maps-lake-america-ontario-government-websites/
I've been playing Snapdots for DS lately, and I'm *amazed* I've never heard anyone talk about this game before. This is so cool! Really unique spin on a picross-style pixel drawing game. Gets hard though!
@misty is it this one? https://www.mobygames.com/game/90315/snapdots/ I never heard about it before! Would you mind contributing some screenshots? :D
Status from Russian Wildberries logistics center in Samara:
Your package may be delayed.
@randahl Russian governement: "not a Ukrainian attack. Wildberries turned its warehouse into an open space office. Everything goes according to the plan."
And the show is up! Thanks to @zkarj, @eddietonkoi Tonkoi, and @bart!
@bart How did you know your name came up on this episode @knightwise ?
Which server's admin pays? Is the translation done by the server of the toot's author or by that of the toot's reader? (I suspect the latter.)
The translation runs on the server of the person clicking "translate", so yes it's the reader who pays.
Believe in yourself, idiot. You’re actually probably not that bad, and maybe even awesome
#mastoadmin How do you report a public post from an account that you or they have blocked?
Offending content is essentially unreportable if the server is blocked by the user even when the content is public and on servers you otherwise federate with.
This seems like a MASSIVE admin oversight in Mastodon.
For whatever this is worth (and I know this is a pain so I'm NOT suggesting this situation is acceptable) a workaround might be to copy the URL of the offending post from the offender's server's website and DM your server admin (and the admin of the offender's server if you haven't blocked it) directly with a message that includes the URL.
Another alternative is unblocking, reporting and then blocking. But again to be clear I'm not saying it's acceptable to be forced to do this.
Or, perhaps I'm just not good at video games at all anymore.
Still trying to work out a way that I can play a video game... publish the gameplay footage and commentary and all. Just one of those pipe dreams...
Google's kowtowing to fascist madman Trump -- a man literally trying to steal the next election by preventing millions of people from voting -- is rapidly pushing the firm and by extension Alphabet into the unenviable historical position of IBM's servicing of the Third Reich.
@lauren and look at IBM. they did quite well for themselves! :)
there is nothing wrong with the system :)))
You ever had a bad hair day?
How about a bad hair month?
That's right, Beans is molting (but just his head) so he looks really funny right now.

This third season of #Silo felt like it had gotten off to a slow start, and I wasn't quite sure it was gripping me.
Closer to mid-season, the plot was really cooking with gas. And that explosive ending in episode 9? Yowza! 😜
But this might be the best and funniest line I've heard in some while. Turns out The Pact…oh yeah, it was just a pile of slop. 🤣
@jaredwhite one of the funniest moments of television i’d seen in a long time
Syracuse University Seeks to Prevent Campus Rape Victim From Obtaining Police Records
---
The university, whose 1980s rape crisis figured prominently in a ProPublica article, committed to support survivors at “every step of the process.” Now it’s in court to stop police from sharing many records with a student who was assaulted in 1987.

Oh please. You want to pretend that waving Obama's picture around online isn't a classic DNC shill tactic? The fact remains that he's a fascist, and you implied that he was somehow anti-fascist. Go trundle your scooter.
Nah, doesn't matter that Obama is fascist. Fascists are notorious for hating each other. Reminding these people that THE BLACK ONE actually genuinely was president will drive them up the wall!

I dropped off a copy of Richard Dennis's book: 'More Fool Me- how the gas industry tricked Australia', off to my state MP Jessica Stojkovski's office.
A hand written note said that I hope that, in reflecting on the loss of the Secret Harbor by-election, her government might seek independence from the fossil fuel lobby. And that what we want us a Frack Free Kimberley.
The office staff were a bit bemused.
I am sick of sending emails to politicians, to get a tick and flick response, so I am trying to stand out from the crowd!
in order to fulfill its purpose Papyrix needs a driver for the Xteink X3/X4 eink display, so I'm at least starting to skim over that today.
There's several magic numbers including several lookuptable. There's a setter (with a support method) for overriding the screen dimensions & an underlying driver to reflect the X3 hardware rather than X4. Several methods defer to that underlying driver, & one of which checks which driver's being used.
An initializer sets properties & logs stuff.
1/?
A begin method logs some debug output, unsets a flag, resets & zeroes out some framebuffers, clears several other properties, inits an SPI channel, inits a couple other pins, handles the UC8279 driver specially, via another method pulses a reset pin, sends various reset commands via yet another method with support routines, & logs success.
There's a method to wait for a busy pin to go low. There's a method to send SPI command with chip-select & data pins low. Or with the data-pin high.
