  • Who are some people in powerful positions or 1%ers that are genuinely good people?

  • There are no good 1%ers. Doing philanthropy with your excessive fortune isn't worthy of applause, it's simply the easiest way to give. And more often than not they still do not. Using your influence (acquired through fortune) is hollow as hell too like why should we listen to you? Because you're loaded?? Nah but thanks for the dono.

    There are good rich people but they are rich in other resources, usually immaterial.

    Also Cosby Cosby'd himself....

  • Scientists of Lemmy, how would you standardize or improve cooking recipes?

  • avoid rigid recipes and prefer cookouts

  • Where can I find a debugger with a GUI for Linux?

  • Emacs is a crazy good GUI debugger I've heard but I've been invested in Neovim for years

  • John Oliver promoted alternatives to big tech in last night's episode, including Mastodon and Pixelfed

  • You hear that? It's the sound of dozens of normies storming stux instances. Stay calm don't panic, the algorithm will take them back in a week.

  • what’s your favorite constructed language? any of you created your own?

  • It's been our biggest error since the Scientific Revolution, assuming the universe can be broken down into its simplest most precise parts. Materialism has many strong achievements but it's not the whole picture. Perhaps it is the interplay between polarities that brings us closer to understanding precision as contextual and nuanced...

    Recognizing how our consciousness permeates our percepts, and how language is the synthesis of this... Everyone is being as precise as they have the capacity to be, colored by spirit and with their soul.

  • Why would'nt this work?

  • You're gonna want a powerful laser probably and ain't no stick that big like not even fkn close not even if we tried so that's why would'nt tbqh

  • What do you use for writing HTML by hand?

  • my hands

  • What's the most alarming thing you've done while drunk or high?

  • I was reading up on Aaron Swartz once before bed while hitting a weed pen and I had somehow convinced myself I was facing felony charges and had to go to court to fight jail time and I lost it... unplugged my computer from the wall and shoved my face in my pillow until I was able to calm down and realize my foolishness before going to sleep.

  • Should I join "free speech" alternatives?

  • Free speech enthusiasts are exercising hatred. Before non-hateful people realize this they sometimes conflate it with the inversion: speaking truth to power. Or sometimes simply "freedom" which isn't perfectly absolute when we live in a society. If you wanna witness hatred then follow the free speech thread.

  • I broke my flatpack

  • oh I do that all the time. tbh just alias flatpack=flatpak and you should be good to go.

  • The US Army is pushing adoption of Agile (2024)

  • and yet y'all are also gonna keep trying to use Agile too

  • I had a journey

  • Whats your favorite free open source software that everyone should try?

  • Only because CTRL+F had zero results: Krita. Everyone complains about GIMP having a bad name and Krita is actually good!!

  • Neovim 💚 Fennel!

  • This is certainly the closest I've ever been to trying emacs... but for better or for worse I probably won't get around to even trying it until a decade from now and then just like LISP I'll probably think damn I should have tried this a decade ago.

    I've got a few fennel projects to get to a good place and then I'm really excited to look into Lisp Flavored Erlang!

  • is there a fediverse imgur?

  • Indie and self-hosted object storage providers could help diversify who is storing the end data (ideally less Amazon and big corps). I've heard things about https://min.io but haven't dug into it beyond that. And pict-rs instances using filesystem/sled are already set, although cost for disk is more expensive than objects I think?
