‪women… if you aren't proclaiming “goodness, i must crush them soon”, what are you doing‬

i really wanna do a popup nwc6 session tonight but it's colllllld

You’re being told constantly ‘it’s the end of the world’ by the same people that benefit from keeping you in crisis.

Electron micrograph of a… naw, it’s a rendering of a vector field coded in #clojure.

i find myself less and less interested in building software - translating my permacomputing aesthetic into a form others might adopt; and more interested in simply doing my thing while opening and flattening my permacomputing practice to be more available, relaxed, and (ironically) results oriented.

yes, lots of the things i build are for only me. but what i build on top of those things? that's my art.

i am (download) zim

cleaned and filled my mobile water system! it's ready to hit the road with me next week ^^

The high council of honknet governance is announcing no changes to content moderation policy.

You just triggered my nap card!

played through the opening of Tales of Berseria yesterday with my friend. from the start until Velvet starts breaking out of prison there are:

• a reciprocal hypothetical lesbian suggestion between velvet and niko
• velvet projecting her desire for her (feminine) little brother onto suggesting his ideal partner is basically her
• velvet showing a serious aversion to men in general
• laphicet and velvet sleeping together
• velvet threatening to strap laphicet to his bed
• ceres's "i am his malak no longer"

probably more i missed. definitely the queerest jrpg i have ever played

#mutualAid request

tldr: i need to rent an airbnb for at least a month to spend time and do some problemsolving with my kid and coparent. :turquoise-heart: & thank you

you can donate via stripe: https://donate.stripe.com/eVaaHU8aWfqo4ta6oo

Background: i am a trans parent of a gender nonconforming child. My coparent and child are in Maine living under the auspices of a bigoted family member and i urgently have to go out there and see them, ideally for a couple months so i can reintegrate as a parent and we can make some headway toward getting them out of that situation.

The problem: i have nowhere i can stay because it's too cold up there rn to sleep/work in my van and i'm in debt from all the work i had to put into it, and i can't stay with my family because the owner of the house is a bigot.

The ask: ~2k USD so i can afford an airbnb until my finances get little more solid and spend enough time with my family. Any boosts or contributions are deeply appreciated :turquoise-heart:

(i do indeed craft open source software tools (taro, felt, underbbs, eureka, nirvash, ryudo, zenUtils...) and manage some publicly available infra (searxng and forgejo instances), which is the on-record reason for this donation link; as far as stripe's legal team should be concerned anything to help me and my family survive and thrive also helps me continue to build and maintain these tools with the leftover spoons)

last night i found my solar power bank will get me 7 or 8 hours of topping up the laptop battery while mixing with the wifi radio turned off, and that djing from the tailgate of my vehicle is wicked fun

tired: just enough operating system
inspired: just enough libc

i will dance, but if you dont step it up it's my turn...

Inside you there are two wolves. One is active, the other one is on hot standby and becomes active if the first one fails or is taken down for maintenance. Add more wolves as necessary for increased redundancy load balancing. A quorum badger can be added for environments with multiple active wolves.

my genome and my memory (and those of my kid) already have plenty of encoded family history

so why would i want to hang onto a bunch of random crap that literally gets in the way at every turn?

Don't forget: it's almost time to stop writing 2024 on forms and instead drawing a picture of a skull with blood pouring from its eye sockets

You want to know why people who use FOSS are annoying? This is part of it. There is a constant, feverish, frenzied conversation retreading the same ground over and over and over again, ground I read about Richard Dipshit Stallman walking in the 20th fucking century, and nobody ever learns a goddamn thing.

I spent my whole childhood with the options being either a) to learn how to patch together a working comptuer system from literal dumpster-dived trash, or b) not have any connection to the Internet (and, thus, my only friends, my only queer community, etc.). I was able to do that because of Debian, and local LUGs, and probably a thousand people's work, minimum. Every project that enabled that is chronically underfunded and unappreciated.

Not only *can* we build something different, we *already have*. And maybe that's not the right thing, but it's proof that we can make a different choice.

Ed and all his friends need to get the hell on board.

Ed Zitron went to Amazon and bought its best-selling laptop — a $238 machine running Microsoft S, a hobbled version designed to limit what a user can do

The laptop is janky, slow, awful — and the internet it opens onto is a shitshow of upselling, slop, and con schemes, where the walled gardens are preferable mostly because they offer an illusion of order

His point: for *most* people, computing is psychologically abusive

He’s right

Read the whole thing!

@catsalad OK. I have therapied myself out of this and I can stop looking.
