If you are at an event with a strict "no acronyms" policy, and you need to set up the projector and mouse do you say "Where is the High-Definition Multimedia Interface cable and Universal Serial Bus cable"?
some terms seem to be spreading from the crypto sphere into more general conversation and one of them is the suffix -pilled. I have been hearing it around enough I keep almost using it by mistake. Is there a better term (slang preferred) to refer to someone who has entirely bought into the propaganda of a thing?
@tripofmice I like -core and -coded but I feel there's quite a bit of drift symanticly. If I said someone was cryptocore I feel that would imply more astheticly and cryptocoded feels like it would imply more subtlety
Back to work today at #MNT after a 3 day weekend submerged in the peer to peer mind virus at an event called #p4p that was at @offline. Today is a bit special cause the first finished Pocket Reform arrived in the hands of its new guardian!
my "H" key was stuck this morning and didn't work and I hadn't tried to remove a keycap on a modern macbook before but its actually super fucking easy! thanks to this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ED7pX_1Aa4_) for showing the process hhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Wrapping up day two of an amazing #p4p! Showing @osprey around the fediverse for the first time. A bit exhausted after hours of discussion of protocols and methods and dilemmas and food.
Our names come in all shapes! Both #fediverse projects #Streams and #Kitsune now support Unicode usernames! This is something I have been talking about since I first joined the fedi in 2017 so I am very excited about this. I can't wait till I get a mention from someone with a username like @王李 or @դմիտրիԹբիլիսի@ժայռեր
I just discovered that @dweb and @internetarchive are doing a "virtual dweb camp" tonight at 7pm CEST (Berlin time) hosted by @mai with presentations by:
I just stumbled onto something horrifying, neo-Nazi symbolism seemingly hidden away in #Unicode. The first Unicode #Hebrew codepoint, corresponding to א, is u05D0. The integer corresponding to the hex? 1488. You can't convince me that was a mere coincidence.
