@fraggle I love that part of Italy. My honeymoon was in Sorrento and I’ve previously visited priano, positano etc along the amalfi coast. Fond of pompeii and Herculaneum too
@david_chisnall @bexelbie @neil I’ve witnessed that pattern in modern iOS games aimed at kids. The ads are also often *playable*. One of my kids played a particular game solely to access the playable ad for a game she preferred (but we hadn’t installed). These almost always have dark patterns to encourage you to start shady subscriptions

@crazyeddie @geerlingguy fwiw @jwz has really good blog comments/Fediverse integration: https://www.jwz.org/hacks/mastodon-to-wp-comments.php however it’s WP specific. But as an example, it can be done.

@zhenech or when my 8-character homepage uri in my email sig becomes >8 *lines* of base64-style vomit
@zhenech laugh out loud funny when the result doesn’t work for some reason (1 time every 10?)

I’ve never paid attention to Ubuntu summit before. Perhaps I should!

@liw the triple-b releases broke my brain so much I often wonder if the release team had intended them to. At the very least I’d like Debian to move to leading with the version as you illustrate, in all official docs and communications.
@neal @andrew_shadura Thanks for expanding. We agree that it's important to clearly distinguish between upstream and the distro changes; and that carrying too many changes at the distro level has serious drawbacks. Where we differ seems to be whether Dgit will make those matters worse or not. Frankly I don't know, but it's a concern worth taking seriously.
@db which app? I did a copy edit of a book with acrobat once. It was a little clunky.
@neal @andrew_shadura that said, the most common source layout in debian packaging *with* git is for the source outside ./debian to be unmodified, and a stack of patches in debian/patches. IMHO this is a pain in the arse to work with: it lacks the convenience of "source as it is built", and the separation of "only ./debian is tracked". The worst of both worlds. It looks like Dgit encourages a move away from this.
