@libreoffice: Oops, due to not expecting nag screens to be repeated by default, I read the "Do show again" as "Do not show again". (Or did that change?) I nevertheless would expect a "No" button regardless of the checkbox being checked or unchecked.

And indeed, there's neither libreoffice-gtk3 nor libreoffice-gtk4 installed. Then again I'm probably old enough so that I didn't consider the design to be outdated. I also start LibreOffice with the soffice command due to being used to that. 🧓🤓🧔♂️

Dear @libreoffice, why is there no "No" button? 🤌

@thomasfuchs: Oh, so they had a CD burner included? I only knew the Mavicas which had a 3.5" floppy drive.

@MeierSchulze: Ich muss trotz Gleitsichtbrille zum Fingernägelschneiden die Brille ganz absetzen.

@MeierSchulze: Jepp, die Kurzsichtigkeit blieb lange (so ca. ab 40) recht unverändert und dann wurde sie ab Ende 40 plötzlich wieder stärker, sodass auch 'ne Gleitsichtbrille sinnvoll schien. Nur das nervige Brilleabsetzen für manche Arbeiten hat sie trotzdem nicht behoben. 😒

@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.

@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. 🤪

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?
