One final annoyance with my @gotosocial migration!
I implemented a split-domain setup, as wonderfully documented by @gotosocial here: docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/
Note that #Mastodon also supports it, and documents it similarly here: docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/co
In both Mastodon and #GoToSocial, I notice that web clients FAIL to login with the account domain.
From what I see on the web server, the account domain receives exactly ONE request:
"POST /api/v1/apps HTTP/2.0" 404 146 "-" "Tusky/31.1 Android/15 OkHttp/5.1.0"
(This is Tusky, but Mastodon's app and others behave the same)
I tried to 301 / 307 redirect that endpoint (against @gotosocial's recommendation), but that fails in the same way (except I see the different matching code on the web server).
As a side effect, apps show my username as: at evilham at fedi.unchat.cat, instead of @evilham, which is what I actually wanted.
What to do? >,<

I have noticed that I do not use the fediverse as much as I otherwise would, because of storage usage and because I have the feeling that certain things would not be entirely welcome on the server.
Which is fine, I think it's a misinterpretation of the server rules, regarding politics on the timeline (could be unlisted, yep, but, still), but the fact that I feel like I have to think about that, means I filter some things out, and end up just skipping the whole fedi thing :-/
Havia tornat a jugar Vampire: The masquerade - Redemption, sense saber que sortiria alguna cosa nova de la saga.
Senzillament perquè recordo haver-lo jugat fa molts anys, i recordo que no el vaig poder acabar (entre altres perquè no tenia la paciència per aquest tipus de jocs), però sí em va marcar força la estètica i temàtica del joc 😸
Total, que si me'n recordo aniré comentant el joc per aquí amb l'etiqueta #vampir, perquè es pugui silenciar.
TODAY is the last day to promote the ECI banning conversion practises in the EU.
It takes less than 5 minutes, and you can do it online here: https://eci.ec.europa.eu/043/public/#/screen/home
The threshold has been achieved in 7 countries, but there are still many signatures left for the 1M signatures across the EU.
If unfamiliar: roughly this would result in either legislation or the European Commission defending conversion practises.
Call for suggestions: need a reasonable #caldav library in a typed and statically-compiled language that is able to parse events from strings / files with a reasonable API.
Context: I've been using tracklr[1] for some time, particularly I got used to using my calendar as the source of truth for time spent on things.
That calendar is locally synchronised with vdirsyncer and I perform queries with tracklr.
Per… motius, estic mirant fulls de càlcul de la #AEAT
Sabíeu que és com "documenten" els formats dels fitxers per presentar els impostos?

Trobo que fins i tot això és millor que emplenar els formularis manualment 🤦🏾♀️
Institucions racistes
Dimecres de trucar a l'ajuntament de #barcelona per intentar solucionar una qüestió completament absurda que únicament existeix per xenofòbia institucional.
I que aquesta xenofòbia institucional es reafirmi quan, en veure que el número de identificació "no és nacional", et parlen intermitentment en castellà, en contra de la tria en el menú automatitzat que ja ho demana a l'inici, i en contra de la llengua parlada durant la interacció (català).
Visca!
It'll be like 2050 and we'll still have software that is using SSL-based language as opposed to TLS.
Right?

In despair with no further clues, fast forward 3 hours removing on the pipeline any non-targeted satellite assemblies from both deployment and manifest and turns out that...
Yes, dear reader, that was it.
TL;DR: do not include Chinese localisations, even for dependencies on VSTO.
Microsoft's Deliverability Support Team is reaching a new low:
> Please provide us a with a screenshot of the complete error message with the present time stamp so that we can investigate further.
We are talking about servers talking SMTP to each other and about their incompetent/monopolistic practices.
I am getting fed up enough, that I started considering finding a EU civil institution willing to pursue a legal process against what we all have known for years that Microsoft does re: Email.
Finally, a great write-up in English about something that's been making the rounds:
TL;DR: the EU is changing things and the direct effect might be that funding for many open source projects would become short and harder to come by soon
Do I read this right? #pixelfed implemented LDAP with an #nlnet grant at version v0.11.3 (https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/pull/3296) and now it's basically undocumented, deprecated and pretty much not supported?
Not that it ever was a great setup, but it was supposed to work '-.-
powershell rant
Argh, the thing I hate the most about Powershell is how similar it gets to standard shell tools for some things, but then:
> ls | grep stuff
grep : The term 'grep' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function
Or, the worse one:
> rm -rf .\trash
Remove-Item : A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'rf'.

Like, I'd actually prefer it to be totally different as DOS was, than to have these very obvious inconsistencies.
Ach… Manchmal muss man bloß Rilke wieder lesen.
»Denn, Friedrich, glaube mir, je mehr man ist, je reicher ist alles, was man erlebt. Und wer in seinem Leben eine tiefe Liebe haben will, der muss sparen und sammeln dafür und Honig zusammentragen.«
Lovely #fediverse operators / #fediadmin, can someone point me to best practices when it comes to spinning up test instances that are designed to be deleted after some time?
It is unclear to me what happens in #activitypub when a server that was known disappears. I know this has happened in the past in rather traumatic ways (instance gone, backups gone, ...), so it must be somewhat well-supported.
Given that this is planned and designed though, I'd like to do things "properly" :-).
On today's work: UI testing by switching language to German, and seeing how bad texts overflow.
I somehow ended up programming some Pascal today, it had been... several years XD.
Tourismus News Rant
Hab grad bei der Tagesschau von gestern (2024-04-02) über die arme Touristen die über Ostern in Katalonien waren, und kein Wasser hatten gehört '^^
<sarcasm>
Oh ja, die arme private Pools in Hotels können nicht gefüllt werden, schock!
</sarcasm>
