Today's fun rabbit hole: there's a mechanical watch feature called a "hack". Why is it called that?The hack (aka a "hacking seconds watch") is a feature where the seconds hand of the watch stops advancing when you click over to the time-setting function. IOW, as you adjust the hour/minute, the seconds hand is frozen in place until you finish the time adjustment.

Remember Kung Fury?
The crowdfunded, excellent 80s martial arts film spoof that is so absurd, it breaks the cool meter?
The full-length movie - Kung Fury II - has been in limbo for years due to an investor screwing the production team over after they finished filming.
But the film crew prevailed, and the movie is near!

David Sandberg has proven to be an excellent writer, director and actor, so I am pretty sure this movie will be a classic too :)

I would like to mention here Stamps Back, which is also a crowdfunded movie, and it has english subtitles, so if you are interested in the 80s of Central Europe and Commodore 64, it's worth a watch.

Allora, dopo aver visto che le previsioni cominciano ad essere incoraggianti diamo l'annuncio ufficiale per il #MastoIncontri a tema #abbigliamentoEccentrico e #trenò!
Ritrovo giovedì 31 agosto a #Saronno al binario opportuno per prendere il treno delle 14:03 per #Como, all'altezza della carrozza di testa: anche se pochi dovremmo essere vistosi :D (ma contattatemi pure in privato se pensate di partecipare).
L'abbigliamento eccentrico non è obbligatorio, ma consigliato :)

Confy 0.7.0
Confy 0.7.0 has been released
This is the first release with a brand new UI written in Gtk4/libadwaita, using Blueprint for UI definition!
User interaction has been revisited, while being mostly similar to the previous version: gone is the tab switcher in headbar, now starred talks can be found in navbar. Gone is also the map view (for now, at least).
Adding new conferences from URL is now done via a nice dialog, and editing of user-added conferences is done directly in the conference list view. Which is now a window by it's own, used as an "open" dialog.
There are some new shortcuts, like the "<primay>-c" shortcuts to copy the current talk details as plain text in clipboard.
The talk search can now be filtered to match only starred talks and there are two search "mode": the global search, activated by the button over in the navigation header and by the '<primary>-f' shortcut, and the "current list" search, which search in current talk list for
day/room/track.
I'm sure I'm missing something and I'm sure I've missed more than something testing this, so please open tickets on the tracker (tickets can be opened also via email just sending a text/plain mail to ~fabrixxm/confy@todo.sr.ht or
u.fabrixxm.confy@todo.sr.ht)
There is also a fix from ~edwardbetts for events that are after UTC midnight. Thanks!

My brain didn't notice the quotation marks, and I thought you were confessing to having made such a form and forgotten about it. I imagined you of all people would know better.
With my new understanding of this post, I suppose my response stands though.
Edit: grammar

arrivo all'imbarcadero a Torno ore 14.11. la corsa passa alle 14.09. prossima corsa 14.44, che arriva alle 14.57. ora che sbarca e imbarca partiamo che son da poco passate le 15.00. arrivo a Como ore 15.30, pontile di fronte alla stazione Nord. Il treno è partito alle 15.16, prossima corsa 16.16... ortomio!
Se tornavo a piedi probabilmente arrivavo prima.
mica questa cosa che arrivi un quarto d'ora dopo, che quasi quasi uno se ne fa una ragione!
