Yeah I thought I had turned that off too, in both accounts, but it seems to be another one of those things Google just ignores. Like our preference for adblockers.

Yes escape works sometimes, but still.

Yeah? I can definitely help myself at 6AM. That's too early for anything other than coffee.

When your kids are telling you you're being silly, it's time to question your life choices.

@AppleVis @weirdwriter @vick21 @ppatel Anyone criticizing him about how he's handled this is just telling on themselves about how they've never maintained a large and popular community project.

@billyjoebowers @uastronomer It's not just the people are mean part. It's the holier-than-thou-about-social-media part coupled with and followed almost immediately by the being mean part that causes people to decide to not spend their time on Mastodon.

Excellent. You'll be finding the fucking door in no time.

Looking like this is going to come down to a bunch of curl I'm definitely sharing these if for no other reason than someone else trying to fat-finger this stuff on an iPhone screen is going to result in frustration.

Applevis appears to be redacting a lot of this info, including the registrar. Are you thinking about trying to take over the site? Because if you are the domain registrar is the least of the things you'd need to consider.

Sometimes I miss Dos.

OK let me see if I can dig up a tool with a not-too-inaccessible GUI. Alternatively, can you send me the URL? I can tell you who it's registered to if that's all you're after.

@weirdwriter @AppleVis Seconding Jamie. Situations like the AppleVis one are incredibly tricky, from just about every standpoint, but especially the community aspect.

Are you comfortable with the command line?

I have a couple registrars. Namecheap which I've used for years and hate less than everybody else, and Ultradomains, which I have a single domain on and haven't gotten up the gumption to spend the six weeks to change registrars for that single domain. I have yet to find a registrar that's accessible, just ones that are some flavor of not inaccessible enough so as to not be completely unuseable. Namecheap so far as best at this. Hope this helps.

This is correct. We don't have the ability to filter out with Windows clients. Very unfortunate.

Glad you had an enjoyable dinner.

The php is already in place, I'm just trying to alleviate some manual-until-it-hurts problems. Specifically, with tracking the podcasts I listen to.
