I don't think Twitter is going to last long. Even if it does, I'm not sure how I feel about supporting a system lead by a man that embodies so much of what I despise in tech.

@vodafone_de Any idea when cable internet will be restored following the power outage in South-East Berlin? https://t.co/ea7Q8UazTo

@SlackHQ Looks like this was already reverted?

[Francesco Lodolo 🦉 @flod]

@SlackHQ Please reconsider your decision to hijack the keyboard shortcut Cmd/Ctrl+(number). That's used for tab switching across different browsers, and makes Slack incredibly annoying to use (e.g. Cmd+1 ends up opening a duplicate tab now).

[Francesco Lodolo 🦉 @flod]

@_cyphercypher_ @SlackHQ Happy to hear about it ;-)

If it's about disabling keyboard shortcut override in permissions, unfortunately it has a ton of downsides.

Finally back to running consistently 3h+ per week (even with the weather here in Mordor, ehm Berlin).

I'm tempted to give MAF a try this time, although it means running slow AF for someone as old as me 👴🏼

American things that don't make any sense.

The question "how old is your child" can be easily answered with a number. But no, let's go with "junior in High School", "sophomore in College", etc.

4 years in, and I just realized there are beavers in Berlin.

Plenty of trees cut down by them on Teltowkanal, and the larger trees have some sort of steel mesh cage for protection.

Apparently Twitter plans to show you top tweets from other countries. But translate them first.

I can't wait to see how epically machine translation is going to fail with some of those.

I wonder why Apple is the only one not doing lay-offs 🙄

Based on the limited data I have from my Strava circle, the new fitness trend among Tech folks seems to be rowing 🤷‍♂️ (after running, cycling, triathlon for the very brave, bouldering)

You don't realize what a cesspool YouTube is until you visit it in a private window, or a container not logged in.

To start, if Google was even remotely interested in users or quality content, they wouldn't allow to edit thumbnails.

When they go low, I go lower – E.M.

It might be time to even disable cross-posting to Twitter https://t.co/hsBCVGQK7V

Watching Argentina yesterday, and Portugal today (missed Brasil, but I bet it wasn't any better).

Unless they start actively penalizing diving, and hopefully introduce rugby-style rules for injury/interruptions, this sport is destined to become a joke.

[Francesco Lodolo 🦉 @flod]

(not) Looking forward to running outside next week…

[Francesco Lodolo 🦉 @flod]

Is anyone surprised? https://t.co/d5kBZVU2xB

I'm starting to wonder where the myth of German efficiency originated from.

I get all the excitment around ChatGPT. But, also worth keeping this in mind: https://t.co/4mVp545IQc

It's been a while since I've spent half a day cooking and baking.
