It's time to update a resource, can you guess which request type to use?

That's right it's a POST request! 😺

Uh oh, we need to go back and delete a record now. What do we use?

You guessed it, a POST request!

Now we need to query some tables using this RESTful API, I wonder what type of API call we need to make?

Astonishing, you guessed correctly it's a POST request 😄

As good a day as any to remind myself that the way most of us has been taught the size of countries is misleading as hell.

very bad fedi software feature idea and likely wouldn't work, also im probably not the first one to think of this 

exile user

admin can forcefully migrate a user to a specific instance (including the blocklisted ones)
users can also vote to exile other users
the user could be exiled forever or for a specific time period after which they would be able to migrate back

would be very funny

The indent war according to space propoents: tabs vs spaces
The indent war actually: tabs vs 2 spaces vs 4 spaces vs 3 spaces
Damn, if only we had a character that can have its width adjusted to fit one's visual preferences.

It's incredible how often on social media people complain about public replies to their public posts.

🇬🇧In response to my complaint, Europol admits mistakes when employees switched to #ChatControl surveillance tech provider Thorn. Internal rules were disregarded without consequences. Europol promises reforms. However, the checks for conflicts of interest would need a fundamental overhaul to exclude pro-surveillance lobbying by ex-employees.

If you don't already know, make sure you read the scandalous original stories on the #ChatControl file and how commercial interests are entangled with state security and political actors to push for destroying the secrecy on correspondence online:

Announcing: Frog Protocols for Wayland 🐸

Let's create Wayland Protocols but much more iterative.

Wayland Protocols has long had a problem with new protocols sitting for months, to years at a time for even basic functionality.

This is hugely problematic when some protocols implement very primitive and basic functionality such as frog-fifo-v1, which is needed for VSync to not cause GPU starvation under Wayland and also fix the dreaded application freezing when windows are occluded with FIFO/VSync enabled.

We need to get protocols into end-users hands quicker! The main reason many users are still using X11 is because of missing functionality that we can be shipping today, but is blocked for one reason or another.

Check out the repo here! https://github.com/misyltoad/frog-protocols

and the Mesa MR that adds support for frog-fifo-v1 to fix these issues and goes into much more detail: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/31329/
