This new Slack redesign is great if you hate screen space, clarity, contrast, ease of use, information hierarchy, messages, channels, and communication

I put together a mailing list etiquette page, in case it's useful for newbie posters.

Six months after the CBC and Radio-Canada scaled back its use of the social media site X, the public broadcaster says it will mostly remain off the platform formerly known as Twitter because it doesn't bring in a lot of traffic. https://www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/business/cbc-mainly-remains-off-x-citing-low-traffic-six-months-after-scaling-back-presence/article_10695842-3deb-50d0-b624-b4102cd553c2.html

I want iron-on Steam achievements for my campfire blanket.

"Oh, yes, kids, this is 'Grin and Bear It,' which you can only get if you survive 18 bear attacks in RDR2, and this one is 'the Great Deliverer,' which requires a rating of 60 or above in all your Death Stranding categories."

@mjg59 is there an objects/info/alternates in your repo? That's my usual culprit.

@ross @0leil haha. Well, I don't have an immediate solution for you, but if you look in ~/.local/share/b4, you will notice that all series you retrieved with `b4 am` have a corresponding json file with all the info you'd need to send a reply message.

@ross @0leil Ok, is it like a "thank you, this patch has been applied" kind of thing, or something more involved?

@mynacol It seems that almost nobody actually implements the BIMI part without the VMC part? At least not outlook nor gmail, which covers the vast majority of recipients.

@0leil @ross Then you can open it with mutt/pine/etc and reply to the message.

BIMI/VMC is such a hilariously grifty attempt by commercial CAs to reclaw at least *some* of the income lost to LetsEncrypt.

Don't do it.

(If you don't know what BIMI is, it's a scheme to show corp logos for emails in your inbox. See:

@major it would be a great name for a git forge, though.

I umpired my last game of the 2023 season tonight. Hanging up my gear and the home plate brush until next May. I'll miss it, but I'm glad for the opportunity to heal up my bruises and to reclaim my quiet evenings. :)
