@catzilla ...and I always appreciate that kind of inquisitive approach! It makes problems so much easier to deal with and solve when everyone is looking at them with curiosity rather than with, I dunno, judgement or something. :-)
@Antimony It's always ok to let me know when there's a problem! That way I get a better idea of how it's affecting people. ^.^
@thatdawnperson Much appreciated -- thank you! :tootcat:
@Antimony There was a transient issue with Jortage, which hosts our media -- but Una (who runs Jortage) has fixed it! :-)
(Let me know if anything is still acting up.)
Are some downloaded apps for websites more secure than the websites themselves? Does it matter what megacorps (Apple, Facebook/Meta, Google, Microsoft) the site partners with?
@unascribed These things always like to wait until they know you're not looking, don't they. 😅
Thanks for all you do! ^.^
@unascribed Any ETA on this? :tootcat:
cc: @meatballhat (prior thread -- just so you know)
@gnomon @catzilla Much appreciated information! I guess we'll just deal with the situation for now; hopefully the copy will be done soonish?
@EveHasWords I find that I can't really be functional in a minimally-suffering kind of way without ~4 cans of caffeinated sugar cola throughout the day.
I started logging my consumption a few years ago, to make sure it wasn't getting out of hand and in an attempt to reduce it overall. I've not been able to get it down to three, and when it's hot I tend to go up to five -- probably because I do need more liquid, but either I don't think of drinking water or my tongue doesn't want to.
(I don't have the same intensely negative reaction to water that you do, but there are definitely times when it feels like the wrong thing to be drinking -- though there are other times when I actually enjoy it. I try to notice when I might be in that mood; tends to happen about an hour after eating salty food, like Costco pizza.)
...fwiw.
@catzilla Probably a temporary Jortage outage. If it hasn't cleared up in 20 minutes, poke me again.
(The symptom I'm seeing is that previews come in slowly, and full views don't come in at all -- or at least not after a reasonable wait-time.)
@devopscats It sounds like this is actually a good thing?
@PhilipCJames Parkrose Permaculture has some relevant thoughts
I made a page for Cal and his box! :)
It's become a crap day for a lot of folks and I'm struggling with the news and everything too, and I happened to download my Mastodon archive and realized how many photos of Cal in his box that I have - there are 15 so far, I think more if I keep digging.
So as a small good thing for today, here's our goofy boy and his beloved cardboard friend.
@PhilipCJames If you read the Declaration of Independence, its grievances against King George are almost word-for-word stuff that TFG is doing right now. :blobcatupsidedown: 😵💫 🤯
@Raeyn It's important for your feline[s] to stay in practice hunting household potatoes, so you don't get an infestation. [nods authoritatively]
@amcooper There needs to be a sign that says "This Way to the Egrets" (possibly-obscure P.T. Barnum reference; I apologize)
