This is it; I don't like anything about it and will be considering alternate frontends when it ships. I have no feedback. My advice is "identify everything different between Mastodon 4 and 5, and do the opposite of that". The worst thing about this is the cursed "floating" compose window. I hate this in gmail, I hate it in every app that has it. I like how in current Mastodon Advanced I can work on a post on the left side while looking at something else on the right side

Concerning #FediHood, the verification email contains only a few words with a link carrying the token.
Unfortunately, this makes the email get rejected as spam by some providers. I neglected that part, having tested with only three providers. Sorry about that.

Oh humanity!
I was ordering at a Taco Bell kiosk and next to me at a different kiosk was a couple in their early 20s. The dude is punching in their order and gets to checkout and says to his girlfriend: “The discount code isn’t working.”
He pushes more things on the screen and apparently still no-go. He asks the employ for help. The employee comes around the counter and looks and says, “It says you haven’t met the minimum to get the discount.”
Dude: “So what do I do?”
Employee: “You need to order more food sir.”
Dude: “So I have to order more to get the discount?”
Dude: “So what do I do?”
I was done ordering and left to wait for my food before I screamed at the dimwit.

It's been a few months since I visited Japan; as you may recall I was traveling around *a lot*.
Here's a projection of all the places I visited, in numerical order.
Data comes from photo EXIF, plotted on OSM tiles and rendered with a Python script doing some Math.
A big question before I went was whether the Japan Rail Pass was worth it. I contend it was, but would people be interested in an actual analysis to prove that?

@olly You might enjoy the show called “depths of wikipedia”. Someone I follow on here recommend it. I went at the weekend and it was pretty good.

Nervous hearing people vaguely complaining about some UI redesign in "Mastodon 5.0". mastodon.social (usually effectively Mastodon Ruby's staging server) is still on 4.7.0-rc.1.

@paul I wonder how much interest there would be if Apple were to relaunch these devices. Specifically, ones with physical buttons and perhaps a slightly revamped interface.

A good moment to revisit the impact that it has on one’s life to be on a US sanctions list now that the International Criminal Court President Tomoko Akane joins the list.
Trump aligns with Putin, who opened a Russian investigation against Akane for issuing an arrest warrant for the unlawful deportation of Ukrainian children.
US sanctions now weaponized to support war criminals like Putin and Bibi

Interesting, mastodon is going to make private mentions officially messages. Feels like it should have always been that way tbh

Linux 7.3 Adds New "bpf_sock_read_xattr" Feature For systemd, BPF Programs
Merged earlier this year for Linux 7.1 was extended attributes on sockets support as a feature sought after by the likes of GNOME and systemd for helping with Varlink IPC usage and other purposes. A limitation though of the functionality has been no efficient means for a BPF program to read those user extended attribute labels back. But with Linux 7.3 that's being addressed with the new bpf_sock_…
