At this point it's hard to even tell what is dumber: going to war in Ukraine, believing that you're somehow doing it "for Russians", or playing the friendship of the peoples with Kadyrovites, especially considering things like this: https://theins.ru/news/277906
I hope both sides… eat each other alive 😈

Not in 2000s, it wasn't. Relying on Qt as your GUI framework was not the status quo, more like a bold move, but in terms of being cross-platform it was a good choice even at the time.

I don't have anything against GStreamer per se, I think that this "batteries included" approach is problematic — I think it will make GTK4 a lot like Qt, both in good and bad ways 🤷

@newt
Tell me more about those… non-garbage distros 🤔

@kravietz
ГРУбо 😂
Действительно странно, учитывая, что nmap позволяет настроить и тайминги, и порядок сканирования портов сделать случайным. Больше похоже на ошибку, допущенную по неосторожности.

Or bottle.py — the single file web framework I use for my cmus web remote control — it made switching to Python 3.13 in which they have deprecated the cgi module, which was in the standard library since the early days, less painful.

True, but there are really good ones — the ones that do not what you could do with a one-liner, but provide adequate level of abstraction over complex things, like above-mentioned requests…

@thatguyoverthere
Just like you, I respect other opinions, using Perl for one-off thingies — that is perfectly fine, but I will never approve of using it for anything bigger — never again! 😂
And I agree, Python gets overused a lot, it gets used where it's not appropriate, its performance is inadequate in some of these use cases, but as a scripting language? It's a good one — better than most alternatives.

@thatguyoverthere
Needless to say, we all switched to the Python implementation eventually 😅
Yes, there are other ways to fix it, enforced Code-discipline, code reviews… But I've seen it with my own eyes: when time presses, commits get pushed no matter what, just because right now the code does what it has to do. So for me it's Python since then.

@thatguyoverthere
My experiences are the opposite of yours: I've seen originally neat code base in Perl turn into a disgusting mess over mere weeks when being worked on by a medium-sized team under a time constraint. At the same time a smaller team have expanded s much less capable framework that was originally in Python, so that it almost reached function parity. And their code did NOT turn into abominable shite. This was partly thanks to the enforced use of whitespace.

Oh come on, it's just a faucet, at best you can use it to… view PDF files!

AFAIK its status varies from country to country. Here codeine-based painkillers are just banned since late 2000s — at least I don't see them widely available anymore — prescription or not, hospitals probably still have them in one form or the other.
But I do have a drug store nearby where you can get prescription drugs without one — at a small premium 😏

@newt
And opioids do? 😲
I thought you just get the shit from THAT drugstore like everything else 😏

Интересно, можно ли стать эмарями по этому же адресу? Или надо обращаться в соседнее окно, но только в каждый первый и третий четверг месяца с 14:30 до 15:28? 🤔

@neural_meduza
Relatable… 😰

Yep, on my way to the store already. To buy myself a new phone just to deal with the CloudFlare thing… That is some truly insane shit! Isn't this thing supposed to be transparent?
They should at least drop the premise of providing valuable advice with this "Update your browser, here is how…" thing, the ones seeing such messages most often have genuine reasons for not being able to do that.

Oddly enough, there is even an unofficial, but full-featured Bull Skype client for Windows 10 Mobile, but no one bothered to make even a minimal client for Fedi. Mastodon web does not work in the old Edge since… forever. I've seen the sources of something that is supposed to work on GitHub, but there are no builds available and I'm not sure it really does. Bloat works and works well, but… you still have to host it somewhere.

@proedie @ipg
Maybe one day I can become a full-time log manipulator 🤩

@bacardi55 @gemlog
Thanks!
It's nothing big, I was investigating this insignificant, but rather annoying thing: some clients display what software was used to submit the post, I was figuring out why my BloatFE is having "localhost:8008" as its client URL despite me fixing that long time ago — turns out it's what client gets registered with when I log into the instance and I have to sign out for that to get reset 😅
