@elduvelle@neuromatch.socialAre you confused in #Teams because sometimes Enter sends message but sometimes it does a line break?
I just realised that when you're in "show formatting options" mode, it is the latter, otherwise the former.
To activate this mode, click on the little A pen icon at the bottom of the composing windows.
Of course Teams could just always have Enter do a line break... But that would be …

@andres4ny@social.ridetrans.itI got a new (used) laptop a few months ago. As is now standard, they've removed the physical mouse buttons and made the touchpad wider. "No problem," I thought, "I've been practicing with tap-to-click!"
After a little while the phantom clicks started driving me nuts. Part of it is due to the wideness, part of it due to sensitivity (moving my finger onto the pad sometimes triggers a click). So tap-to-click is now disabled.. [1/2]
@rasterweb@mastodon.socialOne thing that bothers me about Stoat: If you click on a link you get a dialog that says "External links can be dangerous!" which is so goddamn silly to someone who has been using the web for three decades.

@inthehands@hachyderm.ioMy own little experiment for you to try:
Open Facebook. (You won’t hear me say that often!)
Scroll. You don’t have to read anything. Just scroll.
Every once in a while, click on an ad — but not the top ad. Make it the second in the list on the side, or one far down your feed. You can open it in a background tab and then close the tab. Tell the model it didn’t •quite• get you right — but you’re engaged, it just needs to drift a little further from who it thinks you are.
Wait for the ads to update. Repeat. And repeat. Watch the model degrade.
To this day, Facebook thinks I’m a gun owner who wants testosterone supplements.
