No reviews yesterday either because I finished a book by Iain Banks that was *so* fucking gross and icky that I needed to read a second book just to apply bleach to my brain. Wtf.
So: 0 down, 101 to go, sigh

Accidentally disabled Refined Github (browser extension) the other day, and I had completely forgotten how good it is / how bad GitHub is without.
Among other things, it adds
- the first tag/release a merged PR was in
- a button to download entire folders
- highlights the most useful/upvoted comment
- de-emphasizes bot PRs
- makes PR titles the default squash commit message
- intelligent issue subscribe choices
- build status in repository title (SO useful)
- notification filters

#mastodon decided that your "preferred layout" was only sometimes relevant – if you choose to use the "advanced" (aka multi-column) layout, normal links to posts will now always render in the simple/single-column view because "people want to focus on the linked content".
As the simple view does not even provide a link back or a switch to the multi-column view, you're stuck until you edit the URL manually.
Here's a user script to fix this if you're also annoyed by this: https://github.com/rixx/dotfiles/blob/master/firefox/greasemonkey/mastodon-layout.js
obv edit the url to use your instance
turns out they added a big text box explaining the thing and offering you a redirect to the multi-column view, but they put it inside an element called ".navigation-panel__logo", which we hide on chaos.social because it used to contain just what it says – the Mastodon logo, which is annoying visual clutter to put on a website like that.
guess a box saying "switch to the view you originally wanted before we decided what's best for you" is part of the mastodon logo now, how fitting
Firefox … are you okay?
(Hovering shows a perfectly normal URL, so it's not the standard Nyarlathotep CORS attack from Under The Pyramids …)
Damn, the CERN's OnlyFans page is 😳 *fans self*
I wrote some software¹: git-backdate allows you to change the dates on a (range of) commit to a given time frame. For perfectly good reasons. 😇
Includes flags to keep the commits inside of or outside of business hours. Also for perfectly good reasons. 😈

any recs for specific models of bone conducting headsets?
don't care about audio quality beyond "can understand the person speaking" and "the person speaking can understand me". No music, just talk.
There's a new local group on Meetup called "Early use cases of Chat GPT"
this is its profile picture

Three. A left ear. A right ear.
And a final front ear.
@puniko Das hat bei mir keinen Ohrwurmcharakter, davor hab ich eher das halbe WO im Kopf
Wtf, Gehirn. Ohrwürmer gut und schön, aber WIE kommst du auf "Was fängt ne Hexe mit dem Leben an", und WARUM seit zwölf Stunden, und BITTE BITTE mach, dass es aufhört.
I have nothing to add to @catvalente 's beautifully angry chronicle of the social Internet, past present and future. Please read it. It's everything: https://catvalente.substack.com/p/stop-talking-to-each-other-and-start
No screenshots because I can't attach every paragraph. Just … go read, please.

I've been an admin and moderator for chaos.social for nearly five years now (?). A good enough reason as any to reflect on the Good/Bad/Ugly aspects of community management.
