edit: unclear whether riot cops have live ammo or just rubber bullets

i'm fucking scared for them, the crowd is not ready and the people in the building have not had any time to set up barricades or exit routes

cops dismantling the few barricades that do exist, only about a dozen people holding a line thats already been broken, insta just cut the live streams

jonny,
@jonny@neuromatch.social avatar

cops are cutting off the occupied building from the plaza outside it, most people are in the plaza, so a dozen are now totally on their own and people seem to be barricading them in from the back to they can't fall back and rejoin the others. ugh i am so scared for these students

its kind of an indictment of space that the main reason to go to space is to look at the earth

EDIT: Think I'm good, thanks @nyquildotorg & @jonny for the pointers!

I'd like to find a way to automate it so that people on a social media team can fave tweets and those automatically get compiled into a google sheet. I see github has some Selenium X scrapers that could be useful, but none of them seem to have an option to load someone's faves. I guess I could try to figure them out and retrofit this myself.

Shouldnt be that hard, right? Just add a /likes to this https://github.com/godkingjay/selenium-twitter-scraper/blob/475393809a6abf626842fe4b61dcb8f1581ae317/scraper/twitter_scraper.py#L322

And that should be all you need

Genuinely wondering how this is a crime. Ethereum is not a currency. This is like stealing 25 million robux or runescape coins

@blake
I mean if by without restriction or moderation you mean "through the restricted moderation of a coin exchange" then I mean
https://odealo.com/games/runescape/gold
https://chicksgold.com/sell/currency/roblox
Among hundreds of other means. Every virtual object can be bought or sold and there is nothing special about cryptocurrencies in that regard, they are just pure commodity virtual objects without an adjoining platform. Parking all your money in robux would be exceptionally illiquid and volatile... but so are cryptocurrencies.

@blake
Even in this highly sophisticated ethereum scam they still had to find a strategy to convert to real money through a series of exchanges. I dont see a meaningful difference between what they did and finding a bug in roblox that let them intercept transactions, transferring robux through a series of accounts, and selling them on coin exchanges. If this is a crime then basically everyone who finds a bug in a video game that has assets that can be transferred between players can be considered a criminal.

Currently thinking I might move this account to hachyderm.io, as that server seems to be LGBTQ+-friendly, and fairly diverse in makeup.

While this account has served me well for the past few months, I'd like to consider myself sympathetic to the transgender cause, and hopefully helping such a server will get me to enjoy and understand these people more.

Good morning yet again!

Today I found out my #SmartHome thermostat hasn't been working because of an ISP outage in the area. While I am all for #NetNeutrality, this one takes the cake for me; how can people be expected to have functioning smart houses if they keep prioritising internet leeches (such as "self-hosters") over actual customers, overloading their networks?

I'm on the phone with my provider right now, the waiting times might take a while, but this is something that's gotta be said.
