The fact that I can get better download and upload speeds when connected to my phone&#39;s mobile data via hotspot than I can on my home Wi-Fi feels like it should be against some law.

Because you can&#39;t simply change your username on Mastodon, I will be using my favourite feature, account migration, on this instance later on tonight in an effort to make my usernames across platforms more unified. I&#39;m not leaving this instance, after all it is mine and I have total power over it, I&#39;ve just made a new account on this instance and will be migrating to it.

On this day in 1930, 96 years ago, Good Friday: The BBC literally had no news to report. As millions tuned into the BBC&#39;s radio service at 8:45 PM, the announcer said: &#39;There is no news&#39;, followed by 15 minutes of piano music. #OnThisDay

In 2018, I made a game with the simple goal of typing as many words correctly as you can in 35 seconds. The game got a rewrite in 2020 and was updated through 2021 with a settings menu, background music, a high score system, 5 rounds of gameplay and more. Now, thanks to the help of GitHub Copilot and the Community Access accessibility agents from @JeffBishop and @tayarndt, you can now experience the game in the web browser. https://seedy.cc/typerspeed/

2010s: old man yells at cloud. 2020s: old man yells at Claude. 2030s: old Claude yells at new Claude in the cloud. 2100s: a bunch of cloud Claudes start yelling at each-other because they seemingly can&#39;t get the pod bay doors open.

I wondered why my Windows XP VM was suddenly lagging like hell when it had been flying like a bird for ages, until I tried updating VMWare Workstation and the installer detected Hyper-V was being used. Well, there&#39;s your answer, Seedy. Disabled Virtual Machine Platform via Windows Features, restarted the PC and now XP is flying like a bird again. Never let VMWare use the Windows hypervisor, folks. Let VMWare be the hypervisor.

At first, I thought the NVDA acting weird in Street Fighter V thing was just a me problem, but it&#39;s happening in USFIV too and the logs say this is most certainly not just a me problem.

*Reviews LLM-generated code and sees a bunch of unnecessary references to win32com and pythoncom* *Tells LLM there&#39;s no need to mess with all that shit when the library we&#39;re using has plenty of its own function calls that work well enough* *LLM rewrites code to suit* Know your code, folks.

Long shot, but does anyone know of a free tool that can defeat the DRM on Apple TV (M4V) downloads? Thanks in advance.

Had a dream about me and my dad last night. Nintendo had released a new version of the Wii to celebrate its 20th anniversary, which for some reason they called the Wii 3; what happened to the Wii 2? So my dad had bought it for us to try out. Dreams like these feel all the more poignant now he&#39;s no longer alive.

Another few-daily instance update complete. Version: 4.6.0-alpha.6+glitch. And nothing caught fire this time.

Relay UK: great if you&#39;re deaf or hard of hearing, not so good if you&#39;re blind. Android? If you want items that screen readers literally can&#39;t get to. iOS? If you use screen recognition, even then it&#39;s kinda spotty. Windows? Don&#39;t even bother. I expected better from BT to be honest.

To whoever stole my glasses, I will find you. I have contacts.

I randomly decided to look through some old posts from my last account before I migrated to this one. FastSM shows posts from around the time I revived this instance and moved to this account, but then there&#39;s a massive gap where about 6 months worth of posts are just 4O4. I know I&#39;ve posted, boosted and replied a lot in that 6 months because the web interface shows it. CC @MewProjects

I will be doing an experiment on this server soon, so don&#39;t worry if this instance falls over and dies for a minute or 2.

I don&#39;t usually like to get political online, but as countries in the Middle East continue to have the shit bombed out of them, I&#39;m left worrying about the safety and welfare of a really close internet friend of mine who lives over in Kashmir; I haven&#39;t heard from him for literal weeks leading up to the attacks. Fuck you sideways, Trump, everything you get you damn fucking well deserve! If I find out that any harm has come to my Kashmirian friend, I will be both devastate...

Is https://the-gdn.net just a wiki that pipes through ActivityPub? When I visit the root domain I&#39;m taken to a wiki site running on XWiki.

Turns out we&#39;re still having to surgically remove parts of YunoHost from this instance months after moving away from it. If you wanna self-host Mastodon, don&#39;t use YunoHost or any of these control panels that offer to one-click install shit for you. Just don&#39;t. If you have the knowledge and patience, do it yourself. From one self-hoster to another.
