GMail's web interface is getting worse by the day. I'm so thankful that I don't have to use this for my main e-mail.
@TofuTheSquirrel @neil Facebook is nothing but bad for the Internet, and for humanity
@neil This used to be possible, but Facebook blocked this off during the early days of Google+
I wanted to delete my dog's Facebook profile (he can move to the Fediverse too). Facebook straight up just disables the submit button now if you want to delete your account. This should really be illegal.
We are happy to announce a stable release for Bookworm! Thank you to all the devs, testers, and others who made this possible.

Just wrote a quick blog post with a few photos of my #Librem5 being upgraded to #Mobian / #Debian 12:

A group I'm on is arguing which card this is. I think it's quite clear. That's, the badger.
As part of our Debian 12 upgrades at work, we're switching over to SSDs for our file servers. This will give a nice speed boost, only thing I don't like is that I have to screw all of these to larger brackets, and they don't have serial numbers printed at the back so I have to make custom labels.

About to head home, had a great week in Germany! https://jonathancarter.org/2023/05/29/minidebconf-germany-2023/
I'm in Hamburg for day 2 of #MiniDebConf Germany (first day for me, had lots of delays arriving yesterday). After traveling I asked myself "why do I do this!?"... but today I got reminded again, #Debian people are really great to hang out with and for solving problems together!

Terrible UX example of the day... today I tried to do a simple task on GitHub, and unexpectedly this dialog pops up. How to I make it go away so that I can continue with my simple task without being further interrupted?
