My favorite (Please do not take it personally, I’m pedantic for entertainment purposes only.)

Not “broadcast”… but “re-transmit”.

Otherwise, yeah. Spot-on.

Did you try it yet? Did it work?

@reisepapa Fiel mir gerade erst auf, vielleicht auch nur ein typo: FL03 wäre 300 Fuß bzgl. Standard-QNH. Der ist auf 3000 ft, gar nicht auf FL (Flight Levels beginnen in Europa erst bei 5000 ft). Zeigt ADSB-Exchange wirklich die übermittelte Höhe an (die wäre tatsächlich FL) oder korrigiert? Fluglotsen bekommen korrigierte Höhe angezeigt.

@jelv @bopp @ramones Of, zoals de eerder genoemde studievriend zou zeggen: het zijn geen bijzondere gemeentes maar Caribische openbare lichamen… Cue de discussie over LGO’s, UPR’s, en de reikwijdte van al dan niet juist getransponeerde EU-wetgeving…

@gechytil Genaugenommen schon seit ein paar Tagen. Es wurde nur morgens später hell, so dass die Tageslichtzeit insgesamt noch kürzer wurde.

Why do manufacturers market battery pack as "battery generator"? It doesn't 'generate' anything. It is just energy storage (e.g. battery of cells).

I guess it's easier to sell this since most people knows what a 'generator' does.

: “For 1 hour” ought to be “For one hour” if you subscribe to the style guide recommendation that integers less than 10 should be spelled out in sentences.

Actually, I think that is the 3rd gen iPod – 1st and 2nd both had the buttons around the scroll wheel; it was astounding to me when the 3rd came out with those buttons I've always considered it among Apple's worst design decisions for a company that mostly knocks it out of the park…

That being said, I have tons of nostalgia for legacy music players; thanks for sharing this!

This oft-shared diagram implies that if I'm following local user @hello, then their toots will *not* appear in my local timeline. (The only path to "Local? YES)" passes through "Following? NO". But that's not so! This flowchart needs more arrows.

I seem to be past my list management problems on Mastodon \o/

But I'd like to see a "done" button to make the UI clearer on the web interface. Instead I just... click somewhere else. Also those gray-on-gray icons and the low-contrast scroll bar are too subtle for my tastes.

@cwebber Presumably glass terminals, and not hardcopy ones?
