So, in summary, current DHL status:
- One parcel which they claim to have delivered on Thursday, but didn't
- One parcel which they claimed they would deliver today, but aren't delivering because it's "too heavy"
Things are going great again at DHL
(I do love how the GraphQL API behind their track-and-trace gives you all the gory details of where your parcel is and what's wrong with it)
Apparently I am not getting my new filament today, because according to the DHL API, the parcel is "too heavy"
Why accept a parcel for handover that is too heavy to deliver??

take a gender, leave a gender
@gullvinge Hmm, could you elaborate on some of the common issues you run into with (the output of) those existing website makers? To make sure I'm not missing anything.

In Enschede zijn twee woningen van woningcorporatie Domijn gekraakt nadat de corporatie deze woningen vijf (vijf! VIJF! 5!) jaar leeg had laten staan.
De krakers zullen wel weer ontruimd worden, maar de schande ligt bij corporatie Domijn.

Oh hey my instance and I are being impersonated.
I recommend blocking cloudisland.online
Thanks everyone! Looks like the instance went offline pretty quickly, but you should still suspend the domain in case it comes back.

@gsuberland@chaos.social Likewise, House Flipper is absurdly relaxing to play.
@gsuberland@chaos.social Let's hope the batteries themselves have less race conditions than their logistics system
@charlotte That would be indistinguishable from most Discourse on the topic

I’m going to tell you the story of the man who solved a crime.
Not, like, a cop who put together the clues and got his man, but a person who took a crime as old as civilization and fixed the problem where it got you in trouble.
The man: Artur Virgílio Alves Reis.
The place: 1920s Portugal.
The crime: Counterfeiting.
The problem he fixed: That the money is counterfeit.
(This is going to be a long 🧵 . Just trust me.)
A question for folks who *aren't* developers:
What would be the most important things/qualities for you in a website/page builder? Specifically, in the kind of builder that lets you build in some limited amount of interactivity (like forum functionality).
Developers, sit this one out please. Boosting is of course appreciated, though.

@jdp23 @Quinnae_Moon@wandering.shop Huh, thanks! I wasn't aware of the Tumblr thing at all. I'll have to look into that more deeply.
@ben What'd I miss?
@BioFris@mastodon.nl Klinkt alsof het een Twitter-bridge is?
@stephen @eevee @SallyStrange@eldritch.cafe @aral And to be more specific about what I mean: you are making light of people complaining that "someone else does something with it that they don't like", as if that is somehow a ridiculous thing to do.
People are *correct* to complain about that. The problem here are not the people doing the complaining; the problem are the people doing the misuse.
@stephen @eevee @SallyStrange@eldritch.cafe @aral That's the problem though, you're not just talking about "this is how you stay safe" (which I imagine other abused folks already know from experience).
You're presenting it as if this is in any way a normal or acceptable situation, specifically as a rebuttal to "people should stop being abusive". *That* is what makes it apologia.
