on the bikes again we headed to
Tróia, took the ferry to Setúbal and from Almada a ferry to #Lisbon.
when we arrived in the bustling city of Lisbon we realized that its not fun to cycle here. the busy and ruthless traffic on the steep roads was way too crazy for us! so we decided to leave the city at night and cycled until we found a campspot at 2 o'clock in the morning 😅

route:
Aljezur -> Odemira -> Vila Nova de Santo André -> Tróia -> Setúbal -> Almada -> Lisbon

new from me: More than half of Twitter Blue's earliest subscribers are no longer subscribed to the service

that is, over 54% of the 150,000 users who first subscribed when Twitter Blue launched in November are no longer subscribing

https://mashable.com/article/half-of-twitter-blue-earliest-subscribers-no-longer-subscribed

Here's the problem.

Recent growth on mastodon.social is greater than the growth rate of November 2022.

But growth on other servers, like mstdn.social, has flatlined.

This has been confirmed to me by numerous Mastodon server admins.

Very concerning!

#Windows95 was the pinnacle of #UI #design!

- or at least this is how flame wars start.

I decided to take a closer look at the reasons for that statement myself.

And now I think there's more to that: enough to write a series of blog post about #UX that we lost, or indeed never had.

The first post takes a look at platform (in)consistency and the tension between #users and #developers .

Porque se hoje é dia de descanso, é também dia de recordar a fragilidade do que damos por adquirido.

Lol, some scammer posted a phishing link to deb-on-mobile maintainers, and after spamming it with https://gitlab.com/kop316/annoy_spammers , they look down their site.

Continente, Pingo Doce e Auchan multados por concertação de preços em cosméticos: "Trata-se de uma conspiração equivalente a um cartel", diz a Autoridade da Concorrência, que aplicou multas num total de 16,9 milhões de euros aos três hipermercados e ao fornecedor dos produtos de beleza, cosmética e higiene pessoal. https://www.esquerda.net/artigo/continente-pingo-doce-e-auchan-multados-por-concertacao-de-precos-em-cosmeticos/86108?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
