DMs auf Mastodon sehen ja echt unauffällig aus. Im Web-Interface einfach nur ein kleines Symbol, dass Dir zeigt, dass es keine öffentliche Nachricht ist. Whalebird zeigt gar keinen Unterschied an.

They did say that there'd be a law going in force in December though, which will force phone providers to mark fake caller ID that comes from a foreign country but pretends to be local, which should make at least THIS case detectable for me.

So the German federal phone net agency can't do anything: "Unter diesen Voraussetzungen kommen (…) weitere Ermittlungen nicht in Betracht, da der Bundesnetzagentur keine sinnvoll zu ergreifenden Maßnahmen zur Verfügung stehen."

OK, seems this is related to the app I was screenshotting (Basilisk) which apparently does something special when rendering that confuses the screenshot utility on OS X.

What are the options right now for running a company-internal "Twitter"?

I.e. something that's trivial to self-host and integrate into a company's account system (e.g. LDAP server), and not publicly visible, but visible to everyone with an account? Bonus if it has iOS, Android and Mac apps.

Bloody hell TikTok is full of anti-patterns (unless it was a Firefox bug).

Opened a TikTok link (and paused it) before the start of a meeting. Suddenly, halfway through the meeting: LOUD MUSIC! It unpaused itself?!

Unhappy that strict typing means SwiftUI forces you to set properties depending on inheritance hierarchy:

Rectangle().frame(...).fill(...)

will fail, while

Rectangle().fill(...).frame(...)

works, because frame(...) returns some View, not Self.

Is there a way to get MacOS to take window screenshots at actual 2x window buffer size?

I could swear it used to, but these days it seems it uses the 1.5x display size, which is fine for me to look at, but makes for REALLY fuzzy screenshots.

I‘m so horribly out of shape. But at least I made it back home and spent some time in the fresh air.

Don‘t think I‘ll be biking to work soon though. I got tired less than halfway there, and really had to work to make it back home then. And afterwards, the distance I put behind me was less than going back, and I‘d be in no shape to work now.

UK gets bonus points for not having yet another slow song. #eurovision #esc2022

Australia gets bonus points for that costume, love it. Looks like a bird who tried to masquerade as a human. The song itself was nothing special, but great voice. #eurovision #esc2022

OK, Moldova is a breath of fresh air there <3 Somewhere between Gogol Bordello's Gypsy Punk and Al Yankovic's Polka versions. #eurovision #esc2022

Belgium is kinda nice. The song has some character that the previous few have been lacking. Though it also sounds like I've heard it before somewhere. #esc2022 #eurovision
