This is a just a thought, FWIW. I'm not volunteering to implement it. ;) If there was a way of indicating what you've actually read, poor Tsaukpaetra would not have to like everything. I think it would be of value to the rest of us also. The existing forum software makes a valiant attempt to bring you to the last read item in a forum, but it's difficult for it to figure out where you were when you respond to replies, etc.
Discourse, of course, needs no such button, because it remembers the read status of every single post and I have not ever experienced it making a mistake on that front.
I recommend you go to meta.d and tell them you love their product and are trying to get your favourite site,
what.thedailywtf.com
, to switch to it. -
RE: "Hacking" Teenager in trouble - for downloading public documents
Quite a few years ago, the new government budget leaked a few days before it was to be publicly announced because somebody tried the URL that contained last year's budget and incremented the year. There was much public uproar regarding security, and no hacking allegations.
The year after, it happened again. In the exact same way.

RE: Tales from Coronavee-rooss Italy, mamma mia!
@Rhywden Well, that'll stop Dutch travel agencies going "We don't see a 'no non-essential travel' as a reason to cancel your vacation".
Dutch PM this evening announced a general recommendation to stop shaking hands with others. At the end of the press conference, he shook hands with the head of the CDC, who co-presented with him...

@rhywden Are they testing for teachers who don't pre-check the tests they put out?

RE: We need to be more user hostile to help them embrace freedom!
@hungrier Compare this with mac, where asking how to turn the light off, proverbially speaking, will get the fanboys tripping all over themselves to extol the virtues of sleeping with the lights on.

RE: “Just use Chrome”
@kazitor said in “Just use Chrome”:
Atrocious injustices against the English language aside,
I find the best English is typically found in the works of those apologising for their English because they are not native speakers.

I don't want to see "Phase 2" epics it confuses PM
What doesHe

Helium.
What does Helium mean.
Phase 2.Expanding on this, we incorrectly use epics as over-arching project milestones. BLIs which PM does not want included on the short timescale get kicked out of the epic.

RE: I, ChatGPT
@izzion It's a clockwork automaton, specifically tailored to telling the time. Though not actually to the minute - the most accurate markings are 48 marks per hour.

@error said in I, ChatGPT:
Filed under: Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

@BernieTheBernie As we day in : "April doet wat hij wil". Or, "April does whatever it wants".
Or in another variant, "Aprilletje zoet heeft ook wel eens een witte hoed", "Sweet April also sometimes wears a white hat".

RE: The Official Status Thread
@Tsaukpaetra Okay.
The tool is
ssh
The setting isControlPersist
, with a timespan value
The effect is closing the connection if there have been no sessions inside this connection for that amount of time
The thing people on google want to do is closing the connection if there is a session which is 'unused' by some metric when they are not using the control socket. -
RE: The Official Status Thread
Status: Found out a setting which I thought did not exist actually does exist. It is just that neither its name nor its description included any of the keywords I was using, and google returned various people trying to do a thing which the developers describe as 'Doing it Wrong' and I agree.
