@apps: 3.35.1 still has a bug related to citations: The icon bar in the notification view has an icon for citing, but it shows me all surveys I took part in. The next icon is the survey icon. Clicking on it shows me the posting of all people where I checked the bell icon for being notified about posts. And if I click on the house/home icon, I get all my recent new followers. And so on… Seems as if the icon has been added, but the referred code points haven't been updatesd.

@ascentale @grammasaurus @bikenite #BikeNite A2: Never bought a bicycle at a yard sale, but from some online classified ads.

Found my later #Skatebike in some online classifieds (Tutti.ch) by some bicycle mechanics focusing on refurbishing. Saw some other Skatebikes there in questionable conditions or high prices, but got this refurbished one (new trucks, new pedals, new tire, etc.) for IIRC 40 Swiss Franc ($50 USD, €42.5 EUR).

Others potential buyers didn't take it as they couldn't ride it.

@morph @futurebird: "Über die Gass'" seems to be common in Switzerland.

@karotte @casandro: The domain ipv6-literal.net doesn't look as if it belongs to Microsoft (as @GossiTheDog already mentioned in his posting). It is parked at GoDaddy.

#rsyslog is dead: https://www.rsyslog.com/rsyslog-goes-ai-first-a-new-chapter-begins/ 🤢

@apps: Ouch, that's a huge impact for just one more library.

@apps: That looks odd. Why do they have the same version number but such a large size difference? And what is MinT? A quick web search didn't find any pages containing both exact terms fedilab and mint.

@ai6yr: Yep. Last year I saw one with an even more ridiculous (read: even wider) rear tire.

@apps: I hope it will still work on older Android releases.

@puniko: Symbolbild "Internet in Deutschland"? #Neuland

@nev @ascentale #BikeNite A5 followup: Yep, requiring an app (and hence a smartphone) which is very likely leaking way more of your data than necessary, is one of my gripes with nearly every bike sharing system. (Except maybe those Brompton rental boxes seen in the UK, not sure if they require more than a credit card.)

Doing with the #KMX #recumbent #trike what it was built for (KMX stands for Kart #BMX): Doing silly and fun things like #drifting and #powerslide|s. And tipping over when the #timelapse finally worked.

So here you see me in time lapse proving that you really can tip over a low tadpole style recumbent trike, even with less friction having knobby MTB tires on tarmac. 🤪

Video by @pcb.

P.S.: I'm fine. I tipped over about half of all tries. It was a lot of fun! 😁

*grrr* Mastodon is yet another FLOSS project which just closes unresolved issues after 4 years with lapidary comments: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/15362#issuecomment-2501958351 :facep<Tab>

Thanks for nothing @mjankowski

@wikipedia: Phew! 😌

@xtaldave: WTF? How far has academia sunken that this was necessary?

@ascentale #BikeNite A3: I can't remember where (maybe in #CriticalMass context), but one bicycle sticker I already saw several times was "This machine fights climate change".

@realSiegfried @ascentale #BikeNite A3: No, it was the sticker from @CCitiesOrg at https://changing-cities.org/shop/

Unexpected find on a recent bicycle ride: A rare #CitroënSM in Brun Scarabé color and with vinyl-covered roof.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citroën_SM for details about this legendary and known to be very difficult to maintain #oldtimer, a #70s cooperation between #Citroën and #Maserati (engine).

@popey: Sounds familiar. Did that with #Debian some years ago as performance at the #VCFe because I wanted to install the most recent version of Debian possible on a vintage #Thinkpad 760XD: Pentium MMX w/166MHz + 48 MB RAM

The big issue was that the Thinkpad did support a CD-ROM drive, but couldn't boot from it. So I had to start with the last Debian release which still supported installing from floppies: Debian 3.0 Woody

I then upgraded until Debian 8 Jessie—the last release running on a P1.

Habe gerade https://www.nett-hier.app/ entdeckt und musste mich da mal kurz kreativ austoben. #FahrradBubble #BahnBubble #NettHier #NettHierAberWarenSieSchonMalInBadenWürttemberg
