@soatok@furry.engineer this is a really great read! So many cases detailed that I had not considered as a user. I can’t wait for this to get adopted!

I’m not familiar with these philosophers, but this embrace of uncertainty and in-betweenness was certainly soaked in the culture.https://aeon.co/essays/the-lesson-of-mexistentialism-the-strength-of-uncertainty

I never felt quite comfortable identifying as Mexican, because I always felt Mexico itself rejected the border.So I always thought of my cultural background as fronteriza.Now a bit further from home I don’t think it’s as simple, and in general I don’t care too much for tying identity to geography, but I’ve always found some common spirit with others that grew along different types of borders.In that way, Berlin has something that I’ve always found fascinating: a city with a border at the heart of it.

Signal has decided I don’t really mean it when I disable notifications, so helps me out with the classic tech consent trick of “yes” and “ask again later”.I expect better from signal.

The renfe app and site are infuriating. Examples like: the area code selector doesn’t work because the phone number is not valid, so you have to look for a Spanish number, then change to your area code.It blocks autofill so good luck using a password manager.Registration in the app doesn’t work for mysterious reasons, but it works on web. Payment with PayPal fails because my CVV is wrong (???).Please renfe, I’ll build you a better app.

@Sascha@bonn.social @stefan@bonn.social This would be great. Germany already has a lot of state presence in fedi, I can see this happening.

@codinghorror@infosec.exchange @relay@relay.toot.io @vampiress A fun thing about playing with old OSs is seeing how much modern computing owes to this cross pollination of ideas!I would love to see more healthy OS alternatives, the 90s seemed like a great time for this.

@anthropy@mastodon.derg.nz I agree with this sentiment, it seems to be the way to talk about tech now. Things are either perfect or they’re the worst thing.Matrix is something that feels 80% of the way there. It’s good to voice the issues with it while keeping momentum going. Momentum will incentivize these fixes.Maybe in the meantime we can use more than one tool.

did my first coptic stitch today. It's VERY uneven, and I'm not sure I landed the last segment well but it looks good, sturdy and lays flat.
