@internetarchive So does that rfc acknowledge its inspiration: the Interchat Relay Network on Bitnet, aka Relay? Its ui is a direct copy of how 3270 terminals worked with VM/CMS.

Good news: GitHub Copilot is scared shitless of the concept of gender.

Instead of foo, bar and baz, use “genderqueer”, “demisexual” and “leather_daddy” and you’ll reduce the likelihood of getting a spammy PR from a sad robot.

@darkuncle Looks like a case of “To err is human, to err and automatically deploy the error globally is DevOps.”

@danirabbit @alwayscurious wayland is totally linux centric and that is a showstopper. And it lacks network transparency and that is a showstopper.

@dddaaannn Ahhh, a bit like an FPGA but bigger!

@dddaaannn So it has no jumpers. But what is it? The name doesn't really give it away...

So I won an award at my job. I'm on overnights so I missed the meeting where they announced it.

It came with a $20 Amazon gift card that got e-mailed with no context.

I reported that email as a phishing attempt.

Now I gotta take an online safety class because I reported a false positive.

:c

Capitalism didn't give us the internet.

Large-scale cooperation, open protocols, and free software gave us the internet. Capitalism gave us mobile sites that don't work because fifteen ads cover the screen.

when a country creates a gestapo and multiple administrations let it continue existing (because they insist there is some actual legitimate, just use for it) it is inevitably going to start saying this kind of very overt nazi shit

@bodhipaksa
Are you back safely?

@dashie Thanks for responding. I googled the message and it seems to be a very generic OAuth failure. For example https://stackoverflow.com/questions/76354763/ebay-api-oauth-scope-issue-the-requested-scope-is-invalid-unknown-malformed . Which doesn't tell me if the client is at fault or if you could adjust something. (The app could ask for something incorrect with the "scope", or the server side should know the "scope" but doesn't. It's not possible to tell from this...)

I'm tempted to think it is purely the app's fault, because at the top of the screen it says "Signed in as: @rhialto", so that seems to suggest at least that actually signing in worked.

Another reason to think it was the app: I tied logging in with the text mode client `tut` and that got me to a screen that also said "Signed in as: @rhialto", but it had the authorization code below it.

Oh well...

If only Tusky could merge the time lines of the different accounts into one, it would be ideal...

I guess I'll survive 🙂

@dashie What does it mean when I try to log in with AndStatus and I get an error box with "The requested scope is invalid, unknown or malformed"? I could login with Tusky.
