Lazy web, is there a way to get Jetty server to serve a single static page and send it with a specific HTTP error code?
I’m wrapping a containerized service in a scripted entry point and want to throw up a 500-series error page if one of the safety checks fails.

Dear #lazyweb I'm on Safari/iOS 18 and want to be able to give people a link to a set of search results.

However, if I search for e.g. "word of the year" then the Safari address bar is set to just "word of the year" and not "hxxps://duckduckgo.com/?q=word+of+the+year" - which is what I want to copy/paste. This happens if I search using the address bar, or if I go to the search homepage and enter the query in the search box.

Typing out the URL myself is a pain. Any suggestions for obtaining it?

#lazyweb. Where can I buy high(er) capacity NFC/RFID cards at reasonable prices? 16, 32 or 64 kiloByte?

hey #atmel #lazyweb is the main difference between the SAM L21 and D21 largely in power consumption and peripheral count? it seems like this is the case

#lazyweb Which powerline adapters work for you? I am thinking of upgrading my current ones (TP-Link with AV500 that does max 500 Mbit/s) with the newer version that doubles the theoretical max. Experiences, anyone?

UPDATE: I have replaced the TP-Link with Devolo Magic 2 LAN adapters. See https://social.wildeboer.net/@jwildeboer/114919773685774736

#WritersCoffeeClub 24 Jul ‘stream of consciousness’

I’m seeking advice today, rather than showcase stuff

please see image

what other punctuation can be used to create a distinction between direct speech and a stream of consciousness?

My nephew is asking whether an RFID-blocking wallet or card is worth it. I haven’t seen much discussion of it in privacy circles, and I’m not finding much reliable-looking reporting on it. So, does it make sense to have one? #lazyweb

Assuming I do not care about commit IDs (I want to rewrite history after all) is there a #git tool out there, that would let me do a `git rebase` but squish/bucket things by date?

Example:
- Anything older than a year, squash by month
- Anything older than a month squash by week

I am using git to watch changes to some files, but at some point, I do not care so much about detailed older history, only detailed recent history.

I'm looking at the <time> HTML element and I'm confused about the datetime attribute.

I have a definite start, and a duration. What should I put in the datetime attribute? According to the MDN page, I can put a timestamp OR a duration, but not both...

Here's an example:

<span>Concert ran from <time datetime="2024-06-15T20:00-0500" title="2024-06-16T01:00+00">8 to 11 pm, Jun 15th 2024</time></span>

Thoughts? #lazyweb #html5 #semantichtml

I want to show my German student the old-school joke "ad" making fun of Apple ads where an evil mastermind in his lair describes how easy linux is to use... notable lines about "recompiling your kernel" etc. I can NOT find this on the internet anymore. Came out in maybe 2000 ish. someone is gonna have a link I know it #lazyweb

dear #lazyweb

I am trying to find #cat toys *identical* to the picture of the two balls.they are tan and beige and polyfill stuffed with some kind of raffia and chicken feathers on them (though the feathers are mostly gone). they're about 2" wide.

these are the only toys one of the cats will play with so I want backups. has to be an exact match. the mouse toy is *very* close but he won't play with it.

the tags have zero useful info and I don't know where they came from. thx

Dear Lazyweb!

I plan to go on a cycling holiday on the long weekend this week. I can't decide where to go

Someone help me choose!
- Andorra - I have been before, lots of climbs, some annoying drivers, good food and shopping
- Puigcerda - easy access to some routes into France. I also been before, but only with others
- La Seu d'Urgell - just driven through so far, maybe new hills?

Any help appreciated. Be it or or random google image search.

can anyone recommend a good resouce for building a strategic plan? I haven't done one before and want to do one for my rfs brigade to put some structure around a few of the things we are doing (and hopefully use it to get some support from other areas)

there's tonnes online but it's all different and, well, I just dunno where to start!

#lazyWeb #comicBook #nerd question.

At the start of the new Superman #movie, they claim in the current iteration of the DC universe, meta humans have been widely known for 3 centuries.

Excluding folks like Vandal Savage, or wearers of Dr. Fate's helmet, who were the widely known meta humans from the 1720s ?

Hey Fedi!

I need to convert a 4TB RAID array. I will move the data off it and then back. Currently it's NTFS (and Windows). When I'm done, it will be LVM+EXT4 (and Linux).

Does the file system of the intermediate storage make any difference to the speed or otherwise? If yes, what would be best? (I might hit the 4GB file size limit on FAT32.)

Also, is this best done by copying files, or would it be faster (probably not safer) to manipulate the existing partition?

Hey Fedi!

What's this thing on the high-voltage line?
There are sections where there is plus one wire for maybe 20m, separated with glass beads from the main one, and it ends with a tube that looks kinda like a fuse.
(Edit: under the big red ball.)

My guess is some kind of sensor or safety device. I see no connections to / from it.

Computer touchers and telephony enthusiasts, a question: my brother who's in Japan needs to call a 1-800 number in the US. What's the simplest way to do this? He has a VPN that can spoof his location as the US, if that helps.

(I don't know how to hashtag this, please boost?)

This is an absolutely honest question. There is a lot to hate about the LLMs (mostly the business around the training and the general-purpose LLMs), but I honestly would like to hear also the positive side of them. If anyone has takes that are not based on their shallow hyped promises (no english is not the new programming language), I am all ears. #lazyweb #llm

#question

If I were looking for historical information (19th Century) about specific #Irish immigrants in Leeds County in Ontario, Canada does anyone know where I might start looking? Is information like this published online by the county or province or is this something that local libraries might be able to help with?

This is a #lazyweb question, but I'm inquiring for my aunt who has otherwise done a great deal of non-internet work on this over the past 20 yrs. Maybe more is digitized now?

I just discovered the ARC-AGI initiative and the associated test to estimate how close "AI" models are from #AGI

https://arcprize.org/arc-agi

While I found the initiative interesting, I'm not sure I understand what in this test really guarantees that the model is capable of some form of generalization and problem-solving.
Wouldn't it be possible for specialized pattern-matching/discovering algorithms to solve such problems?
I imagine some computer scientists, mathematicians or computational neuroscientists have already had a look at this, so would anyone knows of some articles/blogs on the topic?

Maybe @wim_v12e? Is this something you already looked at?
