@AnarchoNinaWrites Yeah, this is the same people why say Musk can't be held accountable for the DOGE shit because he wasn't duly appointed & thus isn't subject to the rules of someone who is. They think it's a loophole & idiots keep proving them right.
CatSalad $30T IPO coming soon! 
@catsalad
Do you have a vegan option?
My entire life you told me the Russians were gonna get me and it did not ever happen. It was bullshit then. I suspect it's bullshit now. Sorry but even if Trump actually IS working for Russia, I'm just tired of playing this game.
@AnarchoNinaWrites Well Putin is a Nazi and a Billionaire.
@tchaten Oo never picked up one of those
@christianselig @tchaten I’m still using my old lightning one and it works great.

Hast du zufällig eine ungefähre Zeitmarke?
Ich schaffe es nicht das ganze anzuhören, den Typ finde ich so schlimm
@ricci nobody can make me care about whatever CJS and ESM are and i expressly forbid ever knowing about how that interacts with the compiler/bundler
@jonny I assume CJS stands for Crufty Java Shit and ESM stands for Enterprise-class State Machines but eh

*sigh*…
I’m sighing because the “why are you critical of capitalism if you own an iPhone” is such an extremely cliché argument that, believe you me, I hear every freaking day as a political activist.
I’m sighing because it’s the most superficial, plain, and uninteresting way that most people have for dismissing people who have actual things to say and denounce.
I’m sighing because it’s a cop-out counter-argument that’s used repeatedly to disqualify valid points made by marginalized communities.
@brentsimmons, these aren’t tech choices being criticized, they’re political choices. Political choices made in a time of far reaching fascism should be criticized widely and openly, especially by those most impacted.
Hear those criticisms and argue against them for what they are instead of cheaply disqualifying those who make them on the basis that, yes, they are constrained to live in a capitalist society, and to themselves own/use products of that society as we all do.
@nileane @louie lol yeah, big sigh. you go so hard in one direction virtue signalling, meanwhile have blinders on for what pays the bills (louie, is your podcast friend gruber still on twitter? you’ve done a lot of icon/glyph work for meta, no? niléane, do you force your users to declare they are not on twitter in order to use your app?).
Urgent: I'm helping my friend @PaulDitz raise $3K for life saving surgery for his special kitty Atticus (pictured below). The good news is, we're only about $500 short. The bad news is I need that $500 in the next 3 or so days. If you can spare a few bucks to save Atticus it would mean the world to me. If he can get the money, the prognosis is good. We can save Atticus together, we really can. You can send money via Venmo (@PaulDitz) CashAp ($PaulDitz) or Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/PaulDitz

Se lo dice Conte, quello che fin dall'inizio è né di destra né di sinistra, e cioè di destra, io me l'aspetto, ma sta cosa del woke 1.0 l'ha tirata fuori Alexandria Ocasio-Cortes, ed io sono nauseato.
A riprova che non c'è niente da fare, i politici che devono ricevere una delega finiscono per mettere in piedi un teatrino, e ogni tanto cambiano il copione.
I mean I told you they were literally going to say that because we didn't sign the war crimes treaty, you can't call our war crimes, well, war crimes. I said it. And yeah I'm sure some of you thought I was doing a reducto ad absurdim (fuck you, I flunked Latin) but no I meant it and we are in fact now doing it.
Do you get why I can't take the fucking people running our society seriously yet? The opinion makers? The discourse? Because it's like THIS all the way down mate.
I hope they helped.
@lowqualityfacts That is so very meta. My mind is boggling.

The United States is taking aim at Canada once again, with a crushing new set of tariffs.
Ultimately, government will need to solve this. But in the same way Canadians are avoiding US alcohol, produce, and other goods, they should get off US tech products too.
Luckily, I have a guide for that.

@jpm @abstractcode @futzle or not a defined length, but terminated by a null character ;-)
@david @abstractcode @futzle oh hell no. C strings with a null terminator were an even worse mistake than using + to concatenate strings. So many buffer overflow bugs could have been avoided by using bytes + length rather than null-terminated.
@rinmari @AmyZenunim @misty This is me absolutely betraying my "I only really am on the Fediverse and have been observong BSky from afar", but, darn, are there no alternatove stacks of PDS/Relay(/Appview? I don't think that applies?) that would let them just meaningfully choose to be in a space with a better administration policy?
I know that vaguely-some-sorta-"no single control"/"yes options" was a.. design feature they have been publically making eye contact with. Is there still no credible choice there, still yet? Dang.
@gaditb @rinmari @AmyZenunim There is actually! There are a few.
Blacksky, Eurosky and Northsky offer largely Bluesky-ish interfaces but run their own infrastructure. Blacksky in particular is fully independent of Bluesky's services at this point.
Wafrn has a more tumblr-style user interface and has a backend that's completely unique to it; it's not borrowing Bluesky's architecture at all. It also connects to the fediverse. https://wafrn.net
@jonny dawg how did you know I was just looking at https://github.com/bluesky-social/atproto/commit/6873011b2f56f6a82999462686d36c6d93ab85a5
OK its not actually that bad, probably, but really, who can say: +16,875 / -15,899
