Want to assist with oulipo translation? You can kibitz on non-compliant strings at https://oulipo.link/5AGDIR

Right-click on a string and add your oulipo-compliant translation in a pop-up kibitzing form.

Thanks!

(Only low-hanging fruit shows up in this tool; difficult-to-track-down strings don't.)

Arguing about copyright with far-away folks I don’t know again. What is my malfunction; why do I always do this?

I am also a wizzard, fwiw.

"It _says_ it's utf-8; why is it acting as though it's iso-8859-1? Why so much ÂÂÂ all around, stinking up this joint?"

*think*

*light bulb*

(httpd misconfiguration in a spot I didn't think of at first.)

@sculpin is a wizzard.

I was working on a javascript bug for work for almost four hours. Told @sculpin about it. "Is it a DTD thing?"

Folks, it was a DTD thing. I didn't know that was a thing that could fuck up how javascript works, but obviously it is.

It took only a short bit to fix with that hint. Many thanks, @sculpin !

@bnjnswhtblr Thanks!

Got a not-as-old talk/sms/pokymon-go-playing box, and gotta switch all my two factor auth digits now. *sigh*

Writing: good, fun. Hiding actual ID: not a strong suit.

Figuring out who owns a 'nym with a good book just out and dropping him a DM to say I dug it: uncouth? Mayhap, but I'm doing it anyway.

NB: Oulipo.social may go away for a bit soon, thanks to upgrading.

Sorry about all that instantiation bouncing tonight, folks. Polls put a ... kind of hand tool ... in ... a thing that wants no hand tools in it. Whilst I was fixing that, I did a thing or two past my original plan. That's why all that up and down. Again, sorry!

I'm hoping that this sign will cut down on how many days a month our human lift isn't working. I'm not a fan of all our stairs, and wish I could go up and down in our lift.

A graphic I saw a call for at work today. "No big and awkward loads in our human-lifting lift, thanks. That's what our mondo-duty lift is for."

Looks as though upgrading is through, and all is ok. Many translations missing, as usual. You can submit translations at https://oulipo.link/qiqjBZ

Gonna try updating our mastodon instantiation again in a bit, from 2.7.4 to 2.8.4. Yay?

Work today:

A: Work is starting on our intran--

B: Don't call it that! That word is boring. You can call it a portal, if you want. That's not a moribund association, which ... that first thing ... has.

A: A portal to what? To information? *thinks* How about I call it an intranot?

I just bought a Spotify account for work. I don't know what to think about that.

Happy birthday, Oulipo! And in two days, happy two annum mark for our most old toot (first two days of history got lost in a db crash, I think): https://oulipo.social/@mus/1
