(#aiqtdda) @movq@www.uninformativ.de Such piece of shit software makes me want to quit. Esp. if it is just for useless compliance garbage that never helped anybody accomplishing any real improvement. Is it from IBM? We once had to build a threat model with some terrible generator and my goodness, you can’t believe what a myriad of hopelessly useless, wrong entries it produced. Thousands of thousands of lines. At least it was markdown. We basically removed like 99% of its output after reading through every single item. Did this once and refused to touch it ever since. All hand-written now and actually helpful.

(#aiqtdda) One of the super frustrating things about this: I have to write lots of documents, but I am required to use horrendous software to do that. It cannot even number sections automatically, nor can you insert cross-references to other sections. Simple stuff like that. It all has to be done manually.

Even Word 97 could do shit like that

(#qf7pavq) Jaja, @movq@www.uninformativ.de, immer schön aufmerksam der guten SteckdosenprÀsi folgen und im Anschluss in der Exzellenztabelle was eintragen und ausrechnen lassen! :-D Klingt alles recht albern. Ich schÀtz aber mal, dass einem das gar nicht mehr auffÀllt.

@bender@twtxt.net Fenster 11 → Windows 11; KraftPunkt (or Steckdose) → PowerPoint; Deppendrehkreuz (awesome translation btw, I had to laugh hard!) → GitHub.

Ich frag’ mich schon oft, wie das fĂŒr die englischen Muttersprachler sein muss, all diese sogenannten Markennamen zu benutzen. „Ich benutze Fenster 11! Das hier ist eine KraftPunkt-PrĂ€sentation. Den Kode fĂŒr dieses Skript habe ich vom Deppendrehkreuz.“ All sowas. đŸ€”

(#6axgyza) @bender@twtxt.net đŸ€Ł Bug free code, I wish. 😅

On a more serious note, how’s the adoption of Archive Feeds going? If you all were to clear your caches, would your clients fetch archived feeds? đŸ€”

(I’m kind of thinking about truncating my history, to be honest. There’s a lot of twts out there, many of them out-of-context by now. They’re of little use except maybe for showing that twtxt/Yarn is an “active platform”.)


#eog3wkq

And this one with a GUI text editor xed just in case
 lorem lipsum and stuff. it looks like this one didn’t get affected at all! Hmmmm
 Maybe the environment variable is called VISUAL for a reason? đŸ€š 207 characters and counting

Oh, there is a chance, of course there is a way. Sort of.

Mind you, you will need to choose one of those options: either pay with money or with personal data. And no, choosing to “pay with personal data” isn’t the same as “staying with what you already had”*. But at least you don’t need to accept the new ToS’s if you don’t want to - now I actually went there to read them and compare/check what changes, and there there’s this:

“The updates go into effect on January 12, 2024”

So, until the 12th, you can choose one of those options, backup your data and delete your account, without having to actually accept those terms.

On the other hand, you will accept them by default - if I was on vacations or hadn’t tried to go to facebook until the 12th, I would have accepted it by default, apparently. Of course, I falled into that trap on my own, when I accepted their ToS in the first place, that say that they can change it at any time and you’ve automatically accepted it. I knew back then I shouldn’t have**, but
 here we are.

I was feeling bullied, then I found my data is hostage. What next?

Well, the only remaining option is to just delete the account. Right?

Well
 wrong. Because, you know, that’s also on those menus you will only have access to if you first accept the terms of service you don’t want to accept. :picardfacepalm:
