:boost_ok: does anyone have a broken Nintendo DSi or DSi XL lying around? (preferably in Europe for shipping reasons)

I need a few more consoles to do the following:

* sand/polish down each layer of the PCB and image them
* document all the testpoints on the DSi XL PCB (which are, unlike the regular DSi's, not properly labeled)
* document the last few remaining unknown pins of the CPU-TWL SoC

this is of course destructive, so that's why I don't want to do this with still-working consoles

I wanna play ratchet on pc but a) it's sixty euros for an a two year old game and b) no raytracing on amd yet so I guess I'll wait

@pup_hime talking bout mainline. awoo has a patch that removes the limit when there's a CW

having long-form text in 20+ posts is one of the worst Twitter "features" we imported, the posts are just longer

mastodon should fold threads or allow more than 500 characters

Okay it's fixed now so I guess I can tell you what this was

For about a week there, after introducing the new link preview layout last Sunday, Mastodon.social had *no limit* on the length of an OpenGraph article title. To test this, I crafted an otherwise blank HTML page whose OpenGraph title was the complete text of the Communist Manifesto. Anytime this page was linked in a mastodon.social timeline, it resulted in a preview with a 6,000 line title. This is how long it took to scroll through:

@mcc a spectre is haunting Mastodon

thanks for your responsible disclosure!

well "well "well akshually" akshually" akshually 

@EveOfTheFuture @elilla the long s isn't typeset at the end of words, you still use a round s there

re: Tech question 

@socks ideally you'd have CI set up that automatically builds containers from your repo

re: Tech question 

@socks a downside is that you have to build a new container to update system packages in case there is a vulnerability instead of just updating the host

@codl I went from a waterproof phone to a non-waterproof one and the only thing that changed is that I stopped occasionally cleaning it with soap and running water

@NoraReed I would prefer if Mastodon had a more robust tagging system like, e.g. Cohost, unfortunately, Eugen
