@aaronpk GrandStream HT802 works *great* for pulse dialing (optional mode). Have multiple rotary phones in operation using it. https://www.grandstream.com/products/gateways-and-atas/analog-telephone-adaptors/product/ht802
I have thought about using a sidecar (wired) or handheld DTMF (acoustical) generator - they used to have such things. havn't done so yet
That's the one I was testing with but I didn't realize it supports pulse dialing! The retro phone I got is actually sold new and supports tone dialing even though it has a rotary dial! https://opis-tech.com/en/opis-1921-cable-d -

@aaronpk Omfg. Triplex is ready for bidness!
well not quite! This is still temporary power and only for our unit, but at least we can use the lights and even run the fridge now! -

@aaronpk that connector looks really silly. US plugs are something
To be fair, this is not a "normal" plug in the US. This is rated for 240v 50a, our normal plugs are 120v 15a. This one is meant for hooking up an RV or boat to a generator. What would an equivalent look like in Germany? -

My electrician explained how the other end is connected... the white wire is actually the second phase hot wire, and the green wire is tied to both ground and neutral at the pole.
and we're live! Feeding the generator inlet with a 30 amp extension cord that runs to the temp pole at the street!

Hooking up a 3-wire extension cord to a 4-wire plug, what could go wrong π

@aaronpk Is it possible to set up a delayed voice message? It could be fun to call a number, leave a voicemail, and then some time in the future receive a call playing that voicemail.
Ooh good one! I could hook up a motion sensor so that the phone rings when people walk by it on the sidewalk -

@aaronpk Completely agree! Bites me all the time. I assume it's because a laptop can be closed and have an external monitor connected? But that should be part of the "should I use?" logic....
Also the laptop knows if there's an external monitor connected so it should still be able to figure it out! -
That was a rough landing, and not due to the weather

@Luke There is a calendar-ish thing on this page - https://events.indieweb.org/tag/frontend #indieweb
The iCal feed isn't functioning. I'm thinking of using @simon's GitScraper to monitor this page and build an alert from it (partly because I've wanted to use GitScraper for years).
what's wrong with the ics feed? I subscribe to it myself just fine. What calendar software are you using? -
Yeah! Just for one day tho. A very whirlwind trip

@aaronpk and 90 cents will buy you lunch, which requires some reflection.
Where are you in Cambodia? I just got back from a trip there: Phnom Penh and Siem Reap, but also a cruise up the Tonle Sap and along the Mekong. Absolutely loved it.
Highly recommend this street food tour in Phnom Penh if you can swing it.
Quick stop in Siem Reap to visit Angkor Wat on the way to Vietnam next week!
And yes the food is so cheap I almost feel bad buying it at this price. -

@aaronpk Did you have the yogurt coffee at Reykjavik Roasters? We loved it when we visited last year.

@aaronpk Hrm. Subsystem code per user? I donβt still have my Zelle setup email. Do your login codes start with 4? (If theyβre always 4, I assume the crackers already know this.)
yeah normally the direct ones are 4 -

Seeing as we're paving over federal websites left and right, maybe we can finally address the issue of open redirects on .gov websites? This isn't a new issue and it's not going away. But probably we shouldn't see dozens of pages of porn results all getting indexed by search engines by abusing redirects on the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) website, for example:
whoa, that appears to be a compromised azure app on that subdomain. If you fetch one of the URLs with curl, it straight up returns xxx HTML, it's not even redirecting first. -

@aaronpk Maybe adding to the mystery: my login codes always start with a 4 (yeah, Iβm okay making that effectively 7 digits now, whatever), but when they gave me one for signing up with Zelle it was 8 digits with a leading 2. Totally speculative, but I wonder if they assign a leading digit per subsystem.
Oh fascinating, I just tested with Zelle and got similar results, the email code from Zelle started with 8, the SMS was 7 -
omg π€£
