@eff@mastodon.social I didn't have "EFF being deeply corrupt in the stupidest way imaginable" on my bingo card I hope that boot tastes good

@nixCraft@mastodon.social already underway, glad i already decided to move. the shittiest people in all of tech do be congregating huh

@soatok@furry.engineer you wrote that title just so you could put a biiig tail in the banner, didn't you

@whitequark to people who govern you, pay you for labour, administer public services? yeah but i hope your sense of self-worth isn't predominantly based on how capitalism rolls the dice, or what complete strangers who serve as its minions think of you

@whitequark does that mean that, if you become unemployed and start running out of money, that's it, time to walk into the sea? forgive me, i don't wanna sound mean (quite the opposite), but that seems like a very unhealthy way to view life

@sundogplanets@mastodon.social that is absolutely gorgeous. 💚 (except for the starlinks.)

@gamingonlinux this hits too real and not even because of hardware prices

@whitequark @letsbeworms you're not wrong for saying this is how nation states and the owning/ruling class treat people, because that's true but whether or not a king gives a fuck about me won't stop me from finding the best way forward in whatever situation i find myself in. *i* care about me, unconditionally.

@FlitsFlash @karb same

@mntmn beans 🐾💚

@coreyspowell Not that long of an exposure, as far as astrophotography goes anyway - just 1/4 s. The amount of light captured is thanks to the wide open aperture (f/4), which also made details blurry, and the insanely high sensitivity setting (ISO 51200), which put a ton of noise over the whole image, and made a lot of stars indistinguishable from aberrant pixels :( as a photography nerd this makes me a little bit sad, especially since the settings were manual

@himmis@mastodon.art dawww 💚

@htpcnz@mastodon.social That's like a "finish your food, kids in Africa are starving" level nonsense virtue signal @mcc@mastodon.social

@wrmsr a responsible alternative, if they insist

@letsbeworms @whitequark i think creatures deserve some fruit. i would give fruit to creatures

@whitequark @letsbeworms and that's fair. in my view that's the value you're leaning on to find support for your own cause. but your own cause is there regardless of external support. it may not always be able to make progress, or feel particularly strong, but it's there. at least i hope it is. i think you deserve it.

@whitequark @letsbeworms to me, saying "disaster victims deserved to live" isn't supposed to undie them, but rather to help support the spirits of those grieving, and strengthen community more broadly. its value isn't in "i wanted them to live, but couldn't do anything to make that happen", but rather "you're not alone in thinking that was tragic and unfair"

@ignaloidas @whitequark i think that's part of the line that for me separates friends from strangers, and family from distant relatives (taking things like individual means to help into account, of course) but to me, the sayings quoted at the top refer more to how one perceives their own existence and moral value

@jon that's good, and i'd happily give every good journalist money for every article... if i had it am i in a minority, do people just pay for 7 news site subscriptions these days?

@bearmine i think clownflare controls (and takes down with itself) way too much of the internet

@coreyspowell oh btw, the alt text doesn't match any more, seems like your upload of the image is rotated 180

@bagelcollie@woof.tech they're so adorable 💚

@gabu that's adorable! :3

@sheepfilms@mastodon.social nice. i know a group of people who will enjoy this a lot more :3

@foone@digipres.club does the "disable" / "do not use this device" setting do anything in that case?

@foone@digipres.club @robinhood@yiff.life That's it I'm changing my LinkedIn tagline to "I just click everything"

@FrameOfMind I'll be sure to tune in at 29:00 CEST ;)

@FrameOfMind did you just write "16PM" :p

@acegikmo@mastodon.social oh my god yes please

@AmyZenunim 3 is what doesn't really happen. People who are savvy enough to have a fedi account (be it Mastodon or something else) already are already weighing things like terrible/nonexistent moderation, ads, data collection, etc. that happen to them on big tech social media and don't happen on Mastodon. Others either don't care and never will, or can be encouraged to move to the good side of fedi - especially when a bunch of their slightly nerdier friends leave Threads behind.

@letsbeworms @whitequark i think we're approaching the topic from pretty fundamentally different philosophical frameworks, Catherine's being much more... strictly utilitarian? not sure if that's the right term

@Albirew@soshar.dess.ga @siv@mastodon.praxis.red oh, yikes. i'm glad the infosec community here seems to unanimously disapprove

@dalias@hachyderm.io so like, getting rid of c++?

@jon shame that it's paywalled

@cwebber the railway situation makes a lot of sense in this context

chat what do you use for monitoring your servers? i'm looking for something that's small, light, not "ai-native" (🤮), and is easy to set up to watch http requests and what caddy/nginx is doing with them, and optionally/ideally other traffic like ssh and wireguard 🔄 boosts appreciated #selfhosting #sysadmin #cloud

@ipg@wetdry.world My PC audio experience: Windows: generally works but once in a while decides to fuck up your setup without you knowing, also you can't decide what plays where, also turns devices on and off and switches your defaults completely at random, also had 70 million control panels each doing something different Linux: there's a bit of crackling while an app adjusts volume in a shitty way (e.g. youtube player) and,,, that's it

@whitequark @letsbeworms if emotional support has helped a friend of mine survive, was it sophistry, or a resource?

@sixthleafclover@mastodon.art i first read it as "snack harder" and,, yeah, i support that

@kravietz@agora.echelon.pl you've gone a little far in not understanding the point, mate @aral@mastodon.ar.al @element@mastodon.matrix.org

@tubemapper@mastodonapp.uk huh, i never noticed the different door widths on S stock

@EndlessMason i would hope LibreWolf removes this garbage too, and you can import data directly from ff (or even plop a ff profile directory directly into librewolf... with small caveats)

@ignaloidas @whitequark i don't think that's a helpful indicator. it's loaded with expectation that is often toxic and deeply unfair
