    Hard Rock Cafe San Juan #PR closed in 2020, but a new one opened in Poncé on the South side of the island. https://nu.federati.net/url/289348 [newsismybusiness com]

    I used to eat at a place adjacent to the building.

    S is telling me about confrontations that her group has been having with Rich, who thinks he’s in charge of them.

    I’m going to have to flatten and reinstall the OS on the main laptop 💻 some time soon. #Kubuntu usually works well, but I tire of snapd using all my CPU and RAM, shoving all my processes aside (and OOM-killing them). I kill it, and a day or so later, I have to kill it again.

    @fu Is NEU related to NEA?

    AFAIK, teacher srikes are legal ... and they occasionally happen in various places around the country.

    I remember using 3rd party clients to access #Twitter. There was the commandline #TTYtter, the #Flock browser's built-in social client, and many others.

    As Twitter added ads andspewed tons of #JavaScript, leading to a "jumping and twitching" interface that would move underneath your mouse pointer and cause mis-clicks, and as it took 5-10 minutes after logging in for the page to fully load, it was clients that made the site tolerable.

    There was the "OAuth-pocalypse", when they required all clients to use OAuth (v2?) and it intermittently failed for a few weeks.

    Then came the day when clients and other API uses "that substantially reproduce" the Twitter UI were notified that their days were numbered. I remember @evan telling them that Identica and other StatusNet instances had a similar API ... but few, if any, clients came over. Most just shut down.

    Hilariously, there was a trivially reproducible social ranking thing that was cited as an example of the kind of API uses Twitter considered interesting and allowable.

    There were other, lesser bumps in the road, but as Twitter had already strangled most of its client ecosystem, I did not pay attention.

    The funniest thing is that they both sprung up within a few years of one another, with very similar menus and game zones, and have expanded their offerings in very similar ways, but neither one acknowledges any influence by the other.

    The #FTC plans to attack employee non-compete clauses. Better late than never, but they really should have pursued these 30+ years ago.

    The local #pizza and videogames place is gone. It was a franchised company, but I suspect the other locations are also gone. Their somewhat inferior competitor still exists in greatly reduced form, but they don't have a local location.

    I got to #videochat with #GS4 & #GS5 yesterday. #GS3 was watching TV, and did not participate. We’re going to have another videochat today, without any television 📺 to interfere.

    The almost two years old child was at the limit of his verbal expression, but he was clear about what he was saying. “I’m happy that we’re having this chat, but I want you to come back and talk in person.”
