Chief Emoji Officer on is-a.cat instance

Too chaotic for a paladin

Amateur artist and junior IT administrator. Mostly self-trained in chaotic and often destructive ways. Opponent of mainstream social media and nasty digital surveillance, wanna-be cypherpunk. Linux user since 2013. Fully degoogled since December 2019. Fully BigTech-free since March 2024.
Synesthete. That weird freak who sometimes uses Daedric alphabet. Even weirder freak who use bare IP address instead of some server name.
Cryptography is my only religion - does Church of Wael look for new members?
In my free time I draw or write stories, first of all for my fun.

I publish my works under CC BY-SA 4.0 license.

One day I did this #crab - because crabs are meme, right? :crabmadlad:​

Inspired by "tropical style" turtles on graphic in local supermarket.

So I want to leave .social for a better server that doesn't federate with Threads, but the ones on the fedipact website either actually do federate with Threads anyway (looking at you mas.to) or they're invite-only. :(

@tokyo_0 @pinkdrunkenelephants @trumpet I saw posts related to this. Initially mas.to blocked Threads but later changed this to limited. And lists could be not updated after this :/

@madargon@is-a.cat avatar

@tokyo_0 @trumpet I understood it wrongly and thought they changed it already, now I know it they didn't it yet.

So I had few photos of this #bird - not mine, found or received on family chat group. With notes saying it's called Ringed Plower.

AAAAAAA!
[loud screaming and all possum memes]

I try to create #account on Polish site for publishing stories. Tried my Proton, Tuta and Disroot #email addresses and every time I get #registration error like "Use another email account, we don't trust this".
What. The. Hell?!?

I guess using Simplelogin alias wouldn't work too.

hi !

just wanted to let you know that art posts as a whole will slow down, as its starting to take a toll on my mental health to keep trying to post things everyday

it was between this or taking a break, and I honestly prefer this over that

sorry for the inconvenience

madargon,
@madargon@is-a.cat avatar

@anubiarts it's okay. It's impossible to keep daily frequency long-term :ablobcatheartsqueeze:

model :blobcatmelt:

The same cat slightly closer and from different angle so grass is visible in the background. Cat is holding paws closer to its face, with eyes still closed.

@SurrealSeal thank you :ablobcatheart:

Yesterday desktop app nuked my main long-lasting session and reminded me that correct address of my server is 159.89.115.225:5055, not 159.89.115.225...
:blobcatjoy: ​:blobcatmlem:​

Huh, but in the past it worked both ways?

madargon, to drawing
@madargon@is-a.cat avatar

Inspired by logo. I want to draw it in slightly different style but failed during working on this :/ At least I kept a bit of Privacy Badger vibe.

@volpeon Few years ago I had fanart of some fantasy book character as phone wallpaper. And he was licking his mouth looking at point where Protonmail icon was. It looked like he wanted to eat Protonmail app :blobcatnomtomato:​

@interfluidity@zirk.us avatar

the practice many browsers have adopted of truncating URLs in the address bar to the hostname is emblematic of the decline and commercially driven infantilization of the web.

understanding URLs — their roles and the ways and whys of how they are constructed — was an elementary skill of the original view-source web.

hiding complete URLs encourages people to become ignorant consumers of mysterious information services, rather than informed participants in a public forum.

@interfluidity and at the same time they constantly warn us about phishing, malaware, social engineering attacks and disinformation... Maybe they should finally choose one.

@SceNtriC @Zenek73 Ja trzymałam konto dość długo mimo zaglądania co pół roku z powodu "a co jak będę szukać pracy". W praktyce i tak wszystkie dotychczasowe prace zdobywałam innymi kanałami. Dopiero niecały miesiąc temu pozbyłam się całkiem.
A te inne sposoby używania, w połączeniu z wyglądem ich interfejsu i sponsorowamymi postami widocznymi mimo paru warstw blokerów to były właśnie powody, dlaczego zaglądałam tam tak rzadko :blobcatjoy:

Lygodactylus lugubris #gecko, based on photos my cousin sent me. Planned as more realistic style, but it turned out like that.

Must delete Google.

I am nearly ready to delete my Google Account. The 1 thing taking forever is changing my e-mail address on all my many accounts.

@Linux @dan_lerch Ouch, I still remember that pain. Reason why it took me about 4 months even if I didn't have important data in account. And some services required contact with customer support to do it.

This one is Eurasian bullfinch. And it's one of few works I was really satisfied with final effect - finally something turned out as I imagined :blobcatjoy:​
