  • ah the cookie pop-ups, the wretched cookie pop-ups (that have nothing to do with the gdpr, but the americans always know better).

  • nostr neatly covers all obsessions of dorsey. it's literally fash-tech (original dev, fiatjaf, is a right-wing nutjob; and current development is driven by alex gleason of the truth dot social fame), deliberately designed to be impossible to moderate (“censorship-resilient”); the place is full of fascists, promptfondlers and crypto dudes.

  • at least the dude who writes most music for elder scrolls online seems to be decent enough.

  • if you enjoy older elder scrolls music, don't ask too many questions about jeremy soule either.

    Python Software Foundation withdraws $1.5 million NSF grant proposal due to actually having been driven by ethics

  • unfortunately. hard to say if this is caused by them being primarily contrarians or because alice is too much into warsaw pact nostalgia, or because it's edgy; edgelordism and reflexive contrarianism cause so many people to lose the contact with reality.

  • unless they talk about ukraine, then they're just a bunch of sorry vatniks.

  • coffin's a grifter with a narcissistic streak. they surfaced around gamergate and then quickly shat the metaphorical floor.

  • paraphrasing, it was “i have exactly the traits mentioned around and i think i'm perfectly fine and rational”.

  • they tend to disappear from here rather quickly

  • oh, and someone quotes a blog from felipe contreras, an active xfash contributor, as a proof that there's no problem with dhh at all.

    how fucking convenient.

  • omarchy, a set of configuration files for arch, is curated by a well-known white supremacist named heinemeier-hansson^[also known for his other works]; as to hyprland, it's a project led by an edgelord arsehole who doesn't shy from insulting a blind programmer, and happily allows queerphobes in his community.

  • one nice thing is that the migration process to the bluesky is painless and straightforward. if we had the ability to not only take our toots (export does exist) but also move them to a new mastodon server, that would be a very nice boon for the fediverse. (it's also one of the oldest open tickets in mastodon's github issues. and yes, i know of slurp, but that's not really frictionless.)

  • in short, the whole moderation team resigned because of interference from the steering commitee; inb4 palmer luckey crowing about how no-one in the project will stop anduril from using nixos to build american military domination.

    you know, just another day of the fascist takeover of the nixos project.
