Microsoft macht IRC-Client Comic Chat zu Open Source
Microsofts IRC-Client aus den 90er-Jahren sollte den „Internet Relay Chat“ mit grafischen Elementen aufpeppen. Nun wird er Open Source.

Dear website designers for my #benefits provider:
If your claim submission form gets persnickety that a Canadian postal code MUST have the space i.e. `A1B 2C3` and yet insists that the phone number NOT have any spaces i.e. `6661234567` then I really hate you.

This week on #ProFed: the web client has its first non-public page: the settings page, complete with login. It's also the first page that doesn't just display data but saves it too. Small step, but it means the full web client stack is now tested end to end.
So yesterday was a weird day; had an onsite and while wrangling my access to the building, realized one of my boot heels had come off, so I spent like 20m trying to backtrace where it fell off. Never did find it. 😂
Was working in an office space client is moving into, so basically abandoned

A unique moment. Having 7 packages in the repo now and they're all updated this week ;-).
One returnee (Brave Origin) and one new entrant: Tixati, the GTK torrent client I've been using for almost a decade now.

👀 new 3rd-party Mastodon/fediverse client
🤔 can't find the English translation. Even the browser's built-in translator is failing maybe due to its usage of Flutter.
A fresh delivery of slackosundries, my totally random collection of Slackware sw packages.
The latest version of Brave Origin (1.91.149-1) is there for the taking.
Also: a desktop client for Filen encrypted cloud storage is included in slackosundries now. I use that myself. The other packages had no updates.

Ok - here's my #macOS (Tahoe) specific #steamcontroller #gaming #steam personal experience, having tried it out:
So - it works!
BUT
The setup process from Valve does you no favors. While their help guide (https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/33E8-5EDF-24E6-4CFB#mac) has a Mac specific setup section - the on-screen setup in the Steam client itself does not help out Mac users at all
The guide mentions you need to grant Steam "Input Monitoring" permission - but until I did this, Steam didn't even agree the controller was connected (via USB directly or via the Puck)
And then the second permission "Accessibility" was explicitly necessary if you wanted to do a mouse and keyboard game and it needed to move the cursor (I chose Scritchy Scratchy as a test for this specific reason, especially since they just added macOS support)
Another downside: the default keyboard and mouse layout for the controller maps shoulder buttons to scroll up and down - but only a single increment per press! I had to reconfigure it to enable turbo/repeated scrolling events.

My elderly Mom uses #Thunderbird as her client for gmail. Yay for #SilverFOSS !
This is the second time it's become unusable.
The culprit? the same as the last time...she has an ungodly amount of emails open in tabs and it just crashes. Troubleshoot mode seems to get by that to let me 'Close Other Tabs' on a tab.
Boggles my mind it doesn't have some way to 'open clean' without loading the open emails...or at least a setting.
Not sure why, but within the LAN I've needed to whitelist all hosts using #Jellyfin clients, otherwise their IP gets blocked by Fail2Ban after about an hour of watching. I fear this would happen to remote viewers too, but not sure I've ever watched more than an hour remotely. No idea if any other remote client services do the same, I've not let them run more than a few minutes.
Is this perhaps a #debian #ufw #Fail2Ban setting I should know about?
