just things out for now

Seems the spammers have arrived. ☹️ Is there (or can there be) some mechanism to flag posts or accounts as spam?

You tap on the post a few times until you are at the post page of that post and you click ‘report’. There you can select reason ‘spam’!

I reported one post for spam twice today - there was no indication on re-viewing the post that I had already reported it. I think that some sort of indicator of posts I have already reported would be good. Or, if it's simpler, just don't show them to me in the feeds after reporting. Thanks.

Start with cringy poem, end with cringy pseudocode. At least it comes naturally.

I needed to process 20,000 json files & 20,000 JXL files. I'm pulling together a website from them all. Anyway, started with emacs elisp to handle it all, just because I've not done that before. Went kinda ok, and I'm gonna use org-mode to export it all to a website (done that bit loads of times before). In the end, I ended up breaking out my C programming skills (late 80s->nowish). It was a delight. Nothing more refreshing than writing raw code, that doesn't rely on 3rd party code/libs.

Ubuntu telepítése a VirtualBoxba rendben megtörtént. Már csak egy ügynököt kell bele fogni, és máris kész az "AI torture chamber", ahogy a Futurism írja... Mondjuk, első körben még nem így fogalmaznék...

Ubuntu has been successfully installed in VirtualBox. All you need to do is add an agent and you have an "AI torture chamber", as Futurism describes it... Let's just say, I wouldn't put it that way at first...

replied to:

Uhm, not really. Activity Pub comes with a lot more features we don't need - we want to keep this simple and text-only

کوئی نجراجہ لیکر آیا ہوں میں دیوانہ تیرے لئے

I have brought some Najraja, I am crazy for you

continued:

آپ کے دیئے گئے کی درست اور معیاری اصلاح "کوئی لے کر آیا ہوں، میں دیوانہ تیرے لیے" ہے۔ اس جملے میں 'نجراجہ' کی جگہ درست لفظ نذرانہ (تحفہ) ہے، 'لیکر' کو الگ الگ لے کر لکھا جاتا ہے، اور 'لئے' کی درست املا لیے ہے۔

The correct and standard correction of your given is "I have brought a , I am crazy for you". In this sentence, the correct word for 'najraja' is 'nazran' (gift), 'lekar' is written separately, and 'lay' is spelled correctly.
