- Interestingly enough, the character limit for the profile metadata "Label" field is higher than the limit applied to the main bio section. I find this rather odd, especially considering the severe damage to Mastodon's lovely UI I am causing by using this.

It should be up to politics to bring mad scientists to reason, not the other way around.

Just released a new tool y'all might like:
DIY Dynamic DNS — the simple, Unix-philosophy way to retrieve your home network's IP address remotely.
It lets you check your home IP address from anywhere, and is designed to make remote connection easy without a full DDNS server.
You can self-host it or use the public version I'm hosting.
(Built with #rust)

There should be a component or web standard for embedding documents (OpenDocument documents, anyway). I know we have PDF.js for PDFs, thanks to Mozilla, but does LibreOffice have a document viewer that can be included easily on a page?
#Python 3.8! Wooooooo!

I'll go as far as to say that Facebook, as a whole, is a threat to humanity.
Facebook can do irreversible damage to our Psyche, Society, Social Constructs, Behaviour and Mental health.
This "Company" needs to be regulated and crippled as much as possible. They are greedy and will stop at nothing until they have consumed and monetized us all, entirely. #deletefacebook

#PosteRazor is a simple utility to cut up an image into printable sections.
PosteRazor cuts up an input image into multiple PDF pages for future printing. This allows one to print out an image of any size on a regular printer, with some cutting required. Using PosteRazor is simple and straightforward, supports any size of printer paper, and can cut up several common image formats.

@Naughtylus We should make our own #CodeWars clone.

@Naughtylus I thought it looked familiar.
Hmm… I think a website or program that tested you on increasingly-difficult #Rust type system / borrow checker problems would be rather useful. Do you know of one?
