Last Notes npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1pu5…29e0 OMG, I hate tiny scrollbars that can't be click/dragged! At least with websites. I can sometimes use an extension to fix them. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1zdm…yka2 Every time an app does a "Rate me" pop up, I give it the lowest rating and then say in the review that the low rating is because of the pop-up. :) npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1fql…l0zq Yes, but we're pretty much a global community by now, right? What advantages do multiple languages provide in terms of the survival of humans as a singular species? npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub13tp…y83f If you don't want everyone to get the replies, put them in the BCC field. If people are in the To or CC field, it means they're supposed to get the replies. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1qvg…yduz I also don't like Matrix and prefer email & Delta Chat, but curious what did you not like about Matrix? npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1qvg…yduz I wish Mailman3 list server could get autocrypt support. Then all the group members would only need to encrypt with the single list server address. We'd have all the moderation tools, too. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Has anyone tried to make an Android app that: - Shows in the Share tray for files, photos, videos - Turns on Wifi hotspot - Starts a webserver - Shows a QR code to connect to the Wifi hotspot - Serves selected files to any device that connects to said hotspot via http ? npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub187s…3zn5 Sounds like something Facebook would do. https://erinkissane.com/meta-in-myanmar-full-series npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Trying to get people to learn how to use the File Transfer Protocol for transferring files instead of all these baloney proprietary apps. https://pocketnow.com/if-you-think-airdrop-is-cool-wait-until-you-try-netdrop/ npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Finally figured out how to get a proper DKIM record for my grandfathered free Windows Live Domains email hosting! (I think.) Detect all selectors for the MX record server hostname (hotmail.com) and then use that in the domain's DNS records for DKIM: https://easydmarc.com/tools/dkim-lookup npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Sweet!

Or both? (I don't listen to podcasts.) npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1qce…tdse All my computers keep getting shaken. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Remember what a shit-show "Windows as a Service" was? https://web.archive.org/web/20180403164049/https://pocketnow.com/2018/03/31/windows-as-a-service/ npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub18w7…4wlj Apple doesn't allow the latest OS versions to be installed on certain devices as Apple decides which hardware to support, and if they do, it usually makes older hardware run like garbage. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1945…7afa Ha! My friend's son got his first car as a teenager a few years ago and he was so proud of his cassette tape collection that he accumulated to use in that car. :D npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub15eu…lcpr It's not a flip phone, but for some digital minimalism, I'm loving the Jelly Star. It's a very small jelly bean like device, but still very powerful with Android. (https://bookofadamz.com/unihertz-jelly-star-review-theres-nothing-like-this-gorgeous-tiny-android-phone/) npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Looks like Facebook, Instagram, and Threads are down. Way to go centralized social media! Glad our Fediverse is still going! npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Looks like yes, it's the cookies: https://retention.com/how-does-getemails-work/#:~:text=How%20Does%20The%20Code%20Snippet%20Work? npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein How does https://retention.com/ work to scrape email addresses from web visitors? Does it sniff out webmail cookies from the same browser? npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein I feel like everyone rejecting Wendy's fast food surge pricing idea may have missed out on the possibility of $0.50 meals at 4AM. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein "Tech is better when power is distributed between multiple, competing companies. Living under the absolute rule of a single king is absolutely awful. Even if that king still does make very nice phones and very nice computers!" via: https://world.hey.com/dhh/switching-to-android-was-easy-4bf28577 npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein So sick of Microsoft adding mystery meat buttons to the Edge browser! Here's how to remove the latest sidebar button. I never want to use the sidebar! https://www.techspot.com/news/101949-here-how-turn-off-microsoft-edge-pesky-new.html npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1q92…lc09 Totally! Speaking of which, have you ever seen these? https://funkey-project.myshopify.com/ I got one for my nephew one Christmas, and did a +1 on the quantity for myself at the checkout. :D npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1q92…lc09 Nice! I wish Xiaomi would make more clear-glass back phones like the Mi 10 Ultra. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1yp4…7d3l What do you think about autocrypt https://autocrypt.org/ and CounterMITM https://countermitm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/? npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Today I learned that removing "Microsoft Outlook" from the Windows Indexing Options settings makes it so that the Outlook Search bar actually works in Windows 11. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1ynl…873s "you will still need a phone number to sign up for Signal" - Why though? We have this new thing called the Internet. There's no reason to depend on telephone companies anymore. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub15eu…lcpr I'd rather everything have barrel or tip-ring-shaft ports. USB should be round! No orientation required at all. Just point and push. So easy it can be attached in the dark. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1j2d…rakh More and better existing ones. The #UX design in things like Scribus, Inkscape, Gimp, etc is pretty bad and inconsistent. Blender and Resolve are getting good though. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein This 20yo woman deleted her socials & made a website instead. Young people are learning the advantages of decentralization and self agency! https://youtu.be/r0RqucKwIcw?si=fkR_yyFJbRP6S8yl npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1q92…lc09 Heck yeah! I did the same thing a while back with the same open source Feeder app. Love it! I can export the feed list to a file that can be imported in other RSS readers like newsboat too. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1q63…uucj I think I still have Premiere 5 on an NT 4 machine. :) npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub10lt…vh2u I don't know, at least it's usable and readable. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Every time I use the Unihertz Jelly Star in public random people are like "What is that? Is that your phone? Can I see? How is it? How much is it?" https://pocketnow.com/unihertz-jelly-star-review/ npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1f2s…8vmn @npub1l8q…f4up Because it's EXTREMELY valuable data. The social manipulation that an autocratic corporation like Apple could achieve in knowing everything that happens in your home... what your kids are doing, what you own, what you do, etc... is phenomenal. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1l8q…f4up So all of it then? Haha! Well, you wouldn't know without running it through some in-depth traffic analysis and I don't think anyone has done that yet. Apple has been caught bypassing VPNs for data collection too, so blindly following their "trust me bro" marketing is probably a mistake. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1l8q…f4up I wonder how much video recording of your home's contents and structure is being sent over the internet. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Is there any way to set #Windows11 to NEVER install the awful "NEW Outlook"? It feels like I have to uninstall it every time the Microsoft Store does some updates. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub19lp…w07j It looks awful from the reviews I've seen. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein *sigh* "The Pentagon Tried to Hide That It Bought Americans’ Data Without a Warrant" https://www.wired.com/story/pentagon-data-purchases-wyden-letter/ npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub108p…yev6 I wish there was a widely-used standard way of doing video/voice calls with internet identifiers too. There's no reason for society to still be using phone numbers (there aren't electromechanical machines counting pulses in order to route wires to different phones anymore.) npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1jvq…7amh @npub15c0…hxke You can also use "bookmarks" or "favorites" which web browsers have had for 30 years. :) Folders of bookmarks can be opened as tabs with 2 clicks pretty nicely too these days. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1wkx…jlrc Totally! I don't know why people don't understand that. If you need some more references for your designer, I've collected some articles here: https://bookofadamz.com/general-user-experience-design-guidance/#labelbuttons npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1wkx…jlrc @npub1ugl…wx5l Exactly! I got so sick of telling people what those icons mean, I made some CSS code that shows labels for those buttons on my Jitsi server. See: https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/issues/14215 npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein OpenPilot sounds nice and I'm surprised how many cars it supports! https://comma.ai/vehicles #SelfDriving #Tech npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub10tx…crtk Forums require a web browser and logging into a bunch of websites though. I vote for List Servers! You can do just about all the same stuff as forums, slack, discord, etc., but in an open way that allows for individual and team workflow freedom. That's why just about everything on the internet was built with list servers. https://bookofadamz.com/the-most-intelligent-people-on-the-internet-use-this-instead-of-slack-teams-or-discord/ npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein That "Reacher" show is so good! No goofy super hero CGI. Very well written story. No subscription-style watch-time pumping. And so far each season follows a well written book that includes an absolutely satisfying ending. No cliffhangers or "stay-tuned" teasers for sequels. I love it! npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1252…8yv8 I have some really old Windows 7/8 laptops that could use new homes. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1qce…tdse Sent to some friends who are better than me at Fediverse tech/hosting, but also applied as I would love to be a party attendee as well. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Buying content digitally sucks! You think you own these things, but you only get them for as long as they're available on the store's server. Kinda wanted to play OG Xbox Armed & Dangerous, but it no longer works on modern Xboxes. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1mda…ux44 Oh, haha! Problem solved! :) I wonder why they wanted to fragment comms, productivity, archives, & cognitive energy across multiple systems that do the same thing. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1mda…ux44 @npub129d…9wll Oh no!! That was easy to see coming. Should have used a List Server like just about every core technology on the internet was developed with. https://bookofadamz.com/the-most-intelligent-people-on-the-internet-use-this-instead-of-slack-teams-or-discord/ npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Using centralized messaging systems is so dumb! "Anyone can tell if you are using WhatsApp on your computer" https://techcrunch.com/2024/01/17/psa-whatsapp-number-desktop-computer/ npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein I made my #Mastodon instance easier to use on mobile by labeling the mystery meat navigation and moving the Publish button to the bottom of the screen where fingers can actually reach it. Also gave it a real dark mode for OLED screen power saving and some nice backdrop filter effects. #UX #UXdesign #CSS #HCI https://social.lein.us/system/media_attachments/files/111/766/761/147/777/095/original/1a9a11119cf4485f.png npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1mc3…nkdg I think #UX designers for other software interfaces make the same mistake all the time, too. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1t3d…qnlg I think you mean the Fediverse instead of just Mastodon. News sources need to start using ActivityPub on their websites more and then they'll be follow-able from Mastodon or any other Fediverse account. Flipboard has already done it, and any site using Wordpress can install the ActivityPub plug-in now. Fedi clients could also add RSS feed support, though those wouldn't be comment-capable. npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub13us…53yp Of course! Turn it off, then turn it back on again. :D npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Meta's Threads feels like an eternal September with all the people posting "me too" like a brain-dead AOL'er, while the Fedi feels like an eternal reverse September. #Threads #WeirdAl npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein It's pretty easy to do. Just add the below bit of CSS code to body.html: <style> /* add labels to toolbar */ .toolbox-button { width: 7vw;} .toolbox-button:after { content: attr(aria-label); font-size: 0.7rem; line-height: 0.8rem; } .toolbox-icon { width: 100%; } .welcome-page-settings .toolbox-button { display: flex;} .reactions-row .toolbox-button { width: 30%; } .reactions-row .toolbox-icon span.emoji { width: 5rem; } .reactions-row .toolbox-icon { width: 5rem; } </style> npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein I got pretty sick of having to tell people on #Jitsi Meet video calls what the buttons at the bottom mean (especially "How do I share my screen?"), so I made some code for my server that makes the toolbar actually usable. #UXdesign #UX #Tech https://social.lein.us/system/media_attachments/files/111/746/000/118/664/146/original/15bd2281a3c0dd83.png npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein But the 65+ people will think this study about 65+ people sharing a lot of fake news is itself also fake news. https://www.theverge.com/2019/1/9/18174631/old-people-fake-news-facebook-share-nyu-princeton npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Side scrolling sucks, but this is a pretty good visualization of the distribution of the world's wealth (if the page fits on your screen.) https://mkorostoff.github.io/1-pixel-wealth/ npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1gnu…t9nt Windows Mobile 2003 was better at responsive mobile apps than anything we have 20 years later. :) Ha! npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein Wow, Halo Master Chief Collection is only $10 on Steam & Microsoft Store for all 6 games! https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/store/halo-the-master-chief-collection/9ntm9hxnlszx?ocid=pdpshare #Gaming npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1238…g63g The Wordpress Friends plugin kinda does that.

Did it become public on GitHub just last week? npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub10r4…exhm Yeah... it's an unreadable mess even for people without ADHD or vision problems. Maybe that’s the point? The typography isn't designed to be readable, the background is so busy that it takes away from the type making it even more unreadable. It's opposite of good design in every way. I think there might have been worse web design in the Geocities/MySpace days though. :) npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein OMG!

The best are the things from like 2013 that had NFC pairing where you just tap the devices together and they connect (JBL PowerUp speaker is so awesome!) npub17wymzsllah3rrpz47nl3mwqgppzl6ram0k6k6y23kksn9het35asz4m6h8 Adam Lein @npub1r5t…57pf The super uncomfortable almost painful single person laugh in the background of that video.
