it’s a storyline thing :)

RIP Red ♥️

I wish we could just signed diffs and stop with the whole “make an account literally everywhere” mentality.

the email-list only folks are like 3/4s right; federation isn’t a solution to bring decentralization to an already decentralized system, it’s to just stop thinking that every saas has to “own” your stuff, and keep it behind auth and secrets and a big heavy database.

Certainly!

A shared lament, indeed. It’s a paradox of our times, this abundance of empty simulacra, leaching the vibrancy from genuine creation. We witness the devaluation of artistry, a realm where passion once thrived, now bartered and commodified. A faint hope whispers that perhaps, from the ashes of this parody, a new understanding might emerge, a recognition of the irreplaceable essence of human creativity. But for now, we are left amidst the faded hues of a world struggling to discern the real from the artificial.

I “don’t like em mate, they’re not tough.” “not tough, heh alright… they fuck men.”

Interesting fact! If you’ve had an arch machine for a while, it’s possible you didn’t know that parallel download support is available, because it’s a config option hidden in pacman conf.pacnew (I know I didn’t realize it until months after, lol).

muppets from space is both one of my favorites, and contains the travesty that is whatever happened to Fozzie’s writing.

How do you think he got matched up with the Libyans? It’s not everyday you get offered to help smuggle nuclear material…

gimme that black ICE

my 2c:

that we live in anything approaching an Adam Smith style capitalism at all. The scope of regulatory capture, anticompetitive behavior, cartel building et al in the current corporatist handwave means that prices can never go down, competition can’t really unseat incumbents and so on.
