Activities for kinta

@pcambra @jeni It'll make a splash!

@jpoesen @jeni well, looking forward for your deposition

@jeni @jpoesen we can compare notes with my chicken dropping study on a panel

@pcambra @jeni Pretty healthy for a couple of nearly 30-year old rosinantes.

The younger one produces nice and round little waxy balls.

The older one doesn't digest as well any more, so hers are a bit looser and wetter with visible undigested straw.

It's been a while since they produced liquid poop, thank heavens for that. Ain't nobody got time to clean that off their hind legs every day 💩.

@jpoesen @jeni were they healthy poops? we want to know

@jon two, I think

@pcambra Yup.

And more and more often I find myself just marking as spam instead of unsubscribing because dodgy organisations have been known to use the unsubscribe request as proof that the email address is actually valid and active and has resell value.

So yeah... a completely and utterly broken system.

@jpoesen subscription metrics are completely broken for marketing teams, I think that's one of the causes of dark patterns related to unsubscribe processes which might or might not be related to anything the organization sends on a particular email

@pcambra Oh totally. That's straight to the naughty list.

@jpoesen what about sites requiring you to login to “update your preferences”

@pcambra they didn't even bother to go with the trope of "exposure"... nope, just for the feels 😂🤷

@pcambra technically it's a private site and it's up and returning a 403 as it's supposed to.

@jeni well, technically...

@pcambra miscatculations

@pcambra Ah I see. Nice.

@jpoesen you mean this? it's a tile that our electrician made and gifted us when he did the installation of the rest of the house, I like it a lot :)

She made it on her second attempt, though

@pcambra Ambitious!

She tried #catsofmastodon
