@sindarina Echt hè.

Vroeger zeiden we tegen conservatievelingen "Stilstaan is achteruitgang"

En toen riepen de regressievelingen: "Houdt mijnen mede voor eenen oogenblick even vaſt".

Spaghetti-code is audited by penne-testers.

@ronnie_bonkers The least I could do is, after filling in the manual form, leave a "poor" rating with a comment about the eID stuff being broken.

I found an email address here:
https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/contact_en

And perhaps pinging the EU commision on Mastodon helps. Hey, @EUCommission: The European Citizen's Initiative voting website is broken.

Obligatory #introduction toot.

I'm a forty-something IT professional that started his career tinkering with the C64 in the 80s.

I was on Twitter for a few years but that appears to be going down the drain lately, so figured I check out this Mastodon-thing.

Interests are music, technology, programming, electronics, 3D printing and retro-computing. My partner would say I have too many C64s and MCUs. (I'd strongly disagree.)

Hope to meet new people and have a fun and interesting time on here.

Good morning! #CatsOfMastodon #KatLand #Cats #Tortie

So we're at a moment in time where hacker collectives more quickly disclose how they got hacked than governments and corporations.

(The LockBit operation was offline for about *one week* and has *resumed operations*. 😱)

Three days ago, the 4th of November, would've been #KHTML 25 year anniversary. 🥳

Hoorrray!

WTF is KHTML?

Chances are you are kind of using it, because #WebKit and #Blink rendering engines are all forked from this open-source project originally intented for the browser of the KDE window environment.

That basically makes #Opera, #Safari, #Chrome, #Chromium and #Brave (and possibly others) all *siblings*.

KHTML is *literally* the mother of all browsers.

"KHTML is dead - long live KHTML!" 😀
