Als ik iets bij Boxcomplex had staan, dan zou ik dat nu toch wel heroverwegen, denk ik.

"In vijftig garageboxen aan de Helmondseweg in Deurne is vanmorgen heel vroeg ingebroken, meldt een wijkagent op social media. Een grote hoeveelheid spullen zijn meegenomen, waaronder gereedschappen en motoren. De garageboxen liggen op een omheind terrein."

Dat is de *volledige* Boxcomplex-locatie in Deurne... zonder dat iemand het gemerkt heeft, blijkbaar...

instead of “hey i made this tool”

try, “hey i am thinking of making this tool” first and get opinions before you do the work that you’ll inevitably have to delete bc you didnt ask for opinions

@kdzwinel (Of course massive advertising companies like Google have every reason to perpetuate the myth that personalized advertising is better, because without personalized advertising, they would become redundant as a middleman)

@kdzwinel Considering that actual trials show that contextual ads provide *equal or more* revenue than personalized ads... well.

@vidister@chaos.social @Dee ... so hold up. Wouldn't you also be compliant if your "AV" was just a shell script searching your disk for the EICAR test string (after all, that's how an AV is verified to be functional!), and you just never ran it? It's even up-to-date, because there's no newer version of it available!

Side note, but I hate how the letter Q has been hijacked by American rightwing conspiracy weirdos. Q used to be our letter, dammit.

@lyncia It's increasingly a thing in NL as well :/ And I think in the UK it's already pretty bad

I hate how "arcade" has come to mean "children's gambling parlour"

@thomas So I couldn't get USB debugging working, but I *could* reproduce the issue in desktop Firefox by setting it to mobile emulation mode in devtools.

I'm honestly not sure what's causing this, I don't see anything that would obviously be the case. Removing the <main> element makes the overflow go away, but there's also nothing about the element itself that seems off?

My guess would be that there's some deeply-nested element somewhere that's relatively sized to the viewport (maybe 100%?) instead of to its parent, and that it's invisibly pushing out the 'boundary' of the page contents. But I haven't been able to find such an element yet.

@thomas Oh, whoops, I misread your original post and missed that it's about *mobile* devices. I *can* reproduce it on Android Firefox. Let me see if I can get developer tools attached somehow...

@thomas Also, note that the 'overflow' tag refers to *any* overflow - including the (desirable) vertical overflow/scrollability :)

@thomas I cannot reproduce this in my Firefox; it's only scrollable downwards for me.

To avoid disappointment, a brief reminder that EMF happens every two years and our next event will be in 2024.

If you're looking for a similar event in 2023, we will be at Chaos Communication Camp in Germany.

Remember userbars? I remember making some in Macromedia (as it was) Fireworks, back in the day.
