Got a new company iPhone today. Signed in, downloaded company data. Never asked me to sign in to an Apple account.

Created one, tried to login in, success. Check profile settings -> server error, account logs out.

Tried logging in to my account on my computer. Asks for 2FA on SMS. Company phone cannot receive SMS because apparently the messages app is not installed.

Context: I use Dendrite, a homeserver written in Go, which is mostly in life support right now.

I wrote that I believe this move to only use simplified sliding sync could've been better timed, like when more homeservers support it, especially ones that receive funding from Matrix Foundation, like Dendrite and Conduit.

I wrote on a GitHub issue about a bug related to #ElementX not working since the latest update (infinite sync/offline messages) because...

I wrote on a GitHub issue about a bug related to #ElementX not working since the latest update (infinite sync/offline messages) because Element HQ decided to support only simplified sliding sync now for #Matrix homeservers.

Replies from the maintainers:
"use another homeserver that supports sliding sync"

"conduit is a hobby project and is not related to Element"

and I get a call out for "deviating" of the issue's topic for expressing my dissatisfaction.

What is the best way to get started with map design for games like TF2 and Quake?

I keep having ideas of recreating real-life buildings inside the map editor, though I'm not sure if this is a good way to learn map design (maybe to familiarize yourself with the tool you're using?).

Any other tips?

The #AI generated bogus DMCA takedown request that took down itch.io this week just shows that DMCA and copyright laws are flawed.

iwantmyname, the registrar, received a response from itch.io, ignored it and decided to block the domain completely.

Funko reached out to the mother of the maintainer of itch.io. This is ridiculous.

How many laws did Funko and BrandShield break here? And worse, they won't pay for the damage they caused to itch.io's reputation.

You realize how stupid your company's #remotework policy is when your unpaid leave is in effect, and you get a third of your salary.

The policy? "You can only do remote work inside the country of employment".

What's the point of remote work, then?

A developer's conscious about security practices nightmare:

you get assigned a project to implement OIDC to a service. you realize they store passwords in plain-text in the database, and encrypting the database is not a priority right now.

is it so damn difficult to follow secure coding and general data security practices?

The thing I wish everyone knew about long distance friendships is, communication should be played in pairs.

Don't say your friend abandoned you when you didn't bother to contact them while they were away.

Tinfoil hat on: Telegram's CEO arrest on the basis of the platform allowing CSAM and criminal activity will be used as a strong, compelling argument in favor of #ChatControl.

I hope I am wrong.

Bought a #Logitech G29 steering wheel last week. Tried to get it to work with #iRacing, to my surprise force feedback wasn't working. Tried installing Logitech software and Logitech G HUB, nothing worked.

Switched to #Linux, installed the force feedback driver on Arch and it worked perfectly!

And my friends say that the problem is I game on Linux.
