Haha, no this is just the timer mode.

The seconds hand is supposed to tick backwards and it still usually does but sometimes it just does this. Ticking backwards (or any motion that isn't just forwards) also appears to be what gets the hand out of sync IME.

The "weird mode" is actually what it gets into when you do the reset. The seconds hand was also super janky and went all over the place.

I elaborated elsewhere in the thread why I think a low battery is unlikely.

When it happens, it works regardless of orientation.

This is also only one of the pathologic behaviours the seconds hand exhibits.

As mentioned, the battery should have a year left still. (It was replaced last year.)

The watch is also supposed to tick in 2s steps when the watch detects a low battery and I haven't seen that happen yet.

 

My #seiko #6m25 #watch is great but the seconds hand has been acting up.

It frequently gets out of sync with where the watch thinks it is and sometimes even stuck ticking back and forth in timer mode.

A year ago or so when I got it, it'd work absolutely fine and smooth.

I don't require it to be accurate but it sure is annoying and I'd like to fix it.

I did a reset procedure without removing the battery as it should still have a year left but no change.

Any ideas?

#Emacs is now available in #fdroid

And, surprisingly, it just ..works?

You can scroll buffers by touch scrolling and tapping a text buffer opens the keyboard.

The menu bar is finally useful because it pops out as a native menu.

This is trippy, this could almost be usable..

I'll have to get my config into this; I don't doubt it'd just work.

We humans have no natural predator you might say but that is not true: there is one.

It kills millions of humans every year; about one every 30 seconds.

It's a major contributor to a global conspiracy to destroy as much of the environment that humans require to survive as possible; to kill even more humans at an accelerating pace and make the survivors miserable.

Even without its co-conspirators it's capable of turning entire bustling cities into places unfit for humans.
Humans now plan their cities specifically with this predator in mind; building some defences but with ultimately little success at curbing its free roam.

Worst yet: It has successfully fooled humans into thinking they are dependent on it when in fact the opposite is the case.

It's a predator that we have created ourselves:

The car.

The google play version is unchanged.

It already had the toggle too and, contrary to the current iteration of the F-droid version, it is enabled by default there.

 

My PR adding FOSS fused location support to #organicmaps was merged

https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps/pull/9575

It uses the #microG play-services-location library which is a #FOSS re-implementation of the proprietary Google surveillance services client library that works with both Google #GMS and µG.

Indeed it does not.

Time to bisect my prefs.js huh...

No and that has nothing to do with it. My local font should not produce this icon.

In fact, when I paste the emoji into UI elements in Firefox, it's the correct one.

My red heart emoji (❤️) looks weird in #Firefox

This has been the case for quite a while now and I cannot for the life of my figure out why that is. I never explicitly made it this way.
It's only in Firefox and a machine with pretty much the exact same #NixOS config does not exhibit this issue.

I tried clearing unused fonts out of \~/.local/share/fonts/ (no emoji fonts remain) and updated the fc-cache but it didn't help. (Obviously I restarted Firefox.)

Any ideas?

This is how a #brompton EZ clamp spring looks like after a decent few months of usage.

As you can see, it's quite compressed now and, as a result, not springy enough to hold the clamp up properly anymore.

That lifespan is not bad by any means (easy enough to re-print) but does that happen to y'all too or is it just me?

It's also just the handlebar one; the other is holding up fine.

I remember seeing a variant of this which had an actual metal spring inside; I might look into that.

@brompton

 

After a bit of confusion, I found out why my #Firefox was being laggy on some website despite me turning off Javascript.

Turns out I had set layers.acceleration.disabled while debugging V-Sync.

What this setting does is effectively disable hardware acceleration for a core component of page compositing; making everything laggy.

Mess with settings in a dedicated guinea profile people!

As a little proof, here I am replying to you from Mastodon ;)

 

Printed myself an EZ clamp spring for my #brompton at @cccda yesterday; a must-have for any @brompton rider!

It's *so* handy to have a local #hackspace with amazing people to help you out for this sort of stuff. Much love <3
