This is utterly fascinating. A few of the restaurants (and in this case a brewery) I've visited while in Belgium use a web service to host their menus, and display a QR code with the url to the menu.

This is problematic on it's own, but the really fascinating thing is you can only scroll down. If you want to see the items above on the page again, you have to reload the page.

Now, this means that somebody has spent time (presumably working hours) on fucking up something that the web browser will do perfectly fine on it's own if you don't mess with it.

But why?

I can only encourage whoever develps the sites for smartendr.be to find some other occupation. As developers you are completely incompetent, but I'm sure there are vocations where you can be useful and make a decent living still. But please stop destroying the web!

how to setup basic LAMP stack GNU Linux Debian 11 - (Apache2 php8.1 MariaDB) (how to install xdebug - step debugging php requests in eclipse (LAMP web development stack))

the possibility to step (!) debug requests, as they appear on the server is a neat feature.

• installed GNU Linux Debian 11 + MATE Desktop
• installed apache2 + php8.1
• installed eclipse
• installed xdebug
  • and as usually, xdebug + eclipse do not like to cooperate out of the box, why?
  • 
  • because they can not agree on what port to use
    • latest eclipse wants to connect to xdebug per default on port 9000
    • latest xdebug wants to connect to eclipse per default on por 9003
    • c’mon guys. get in contact with each other and set a standard
    • (this has cost me about 2h of debugging around eclipse preferences and xdebug.ini files)
• so the below guide is still usable:

• 

  • ``` php -v; # is also a good way to test if xdebug is loaded when php is started vim /etc/php/8.1/apache2/php.ini; # no xdebug related settings are here vim /etc/php/8.1/cli/conf.d/20-xdebug.ini; # they are all here and read like:

  [XDebug]
  zend_extension=xdebug.so
  xdebug.mode=debug
  xdebug.start_with_request=trigger
  xdebug.start_with_request = 1
  xdebug.remote_autostart = on
  xdebug.log_level = 7
  xdebug.profiler_enable_trigger = 1
  xdebug.profiler_enable = 0
  xdebug.remote_enable = 1
  xdebug.profiler_output_dir = "/tmp"
  
  systemctl restart apache; # changes need to be made active by restarting webserver

  - when everything is installed go to eclipse -> window -> preferences

    - releave… good god thanks they are talking to each other!
  

what is btw excellent done is this “Open Source project funding and progress status page”:

so every user can see, what is the progress “where is it hanging” of the software project, is it a lack of funding?

suggestion: what still missing a “still todo” todo list, where user’s can post suggestions and vote on features 🙂

Diaspora CSS tweaks: Notifications pane height

I've just thrown the following into my Diaspora stylesheet using the Stylus CSS manager extention (Firefox / Chrome / Safari, etc.):

.navbar.navbar-fixed-top .nav-badges .dropdown-menu .notifications {
    max-height: calc(85vh - 4em);
    min-height: 8em;
}

I'd found the previous 350px max height far too short, especially for all the love I've been getting. This will dynamically extend the panel to within 4em of the visible viewpane floor.

It might make a nice feature enhancement for Diaspora core.

I've been reminded of just how miserable G+ performance is

I'd been digging through it (mostly removing my posts and comments, some real searching). The amount of client memory it consumes is absolutely prodigious -- 1 - 1.5 GB in Chromium. I constantly have to kill the tab (and associated threads) to recover performance.

Diaspora by contrast is much, much, much lighter. Though I really wish it had search. Sigh.
