Mastodon FeedOk, this is an odd one, but I need a recommendation for a really good sandwich maker.
I recently got the Krups FDK451, which got rave reviews all over the net, but I'm fairly disappointed. It wobbles, the trays aren't replaceable, it barely fits large toasts, and the locking latch is made of cheapest plastic.
There's got to be a better product out there?!

working on a legacy Sass/SCSS + Gulp setup and oh boy has that not aged well
One does not simply "npm install" an old project. One hour to fix compile errors, another two to reproduce the correct CSS, and I still have 100 deprecation warnings
this is why I "no build" and just write CSS today

We plan to disable the "live feeds" of the local and federated timelines on mastodon.social within in the next couple of weeks. They are already disabled on mastodon.online. While these feeds can be useful on smaller, topical or regional servers, they have limited use on larger servers like ours.
The live feeds present all content on the server immediately and essentially pre-moderation, which presents a particularly poor experience to new users finding the fediverse for the first time.

Mastodon FeedToday my server is getting slammed by a very wide botnet that is really interested in such hits as

It seems to be associated with something called "bxss dot me" and to them I would like to sincerely say, I hate you please die.
Mastodon FeedFound some odd behaviour (regression?) in MDC handling in the latest (3.30.5) Quarkus release. If you're using MDC, might want to tread with caution.

Who's this spying on my Apple Music activity?:
In my iPhone settings, I stumbled across a list of apps Apple says “are signed in to your Apple Music account and can access your music activity and media library.” The problem is, I don’t remember giving permission.

Every time I notice the layout of LEDs on these spotlights at the club, I cringe. Why, why would you do that!
A square tiling makes sense. A triangular or hexagonal tiling makes more sense. A Fibonacci spiral makes the most sense. But what the absolute clustering-fuck is this shit? This layout gets more cursed the more you look at it.

As a sub-note, any D running in the midterms that doesn't sign on to impeaching the cabinet members that are facilitating this nonsense need to be primaried because impeachment is the milquetoast position. The better posture is inherent contempt for violating the War Powers Act and signaling support for ICC/Hague prosecutions on Jan 6th, 2029.
