@ramin_hal9001@emacs.ch

I'm just some kind of nerd: software developer, big fan of functional programming, especially Haskell and Scheme. I also love old Macintosh computers. Haskell programming since 2007, Linux user since 2008, Emacs user since 2018. Currently working as an app developer at a small machine learning consultancy. You could call me a "full stack" engineer, but server-side is where I am really in my element.

1️⃣ - started setting up obsidian for interstitial journaling

2️⃣ - got some advanced french books to study, in hopes of unlocking that part of my brain (all my schooling, k-12 was in french and haven’t spoken it to anyone since)

3️⃣ - the general sentiment here in the that the internet, as it is, sucks a big fat one but we can build things and work together to make it better. that shit is punk af and i’m here for it.

@noc @3goodthings @weirdfolks glory to all things punk. Especially the Fediverse and Linux.

For anyone looking for a stable and easy to use (Desktop Environment) that just works:

Give it a try! 😎

The project and all it's dev's and maintainers do a great job at producing a working desktop that is a breeze to use. :xfce:

@jhx I have been using it for years, and it is so simple and stable and reliable that I honestly forget it exists most of the time.

I do like other desktop environments. I would like to give Cinnamon, and even Gnome and KDE Plasma a try, even if just temporarily. But then whenever I think I might finally switch, I think, "well, why should I?" And there is really no reason to, because all of my desktop environment needs are 100% satisfied, so I don't.

@daviwil I can't wait to see the reference manual for the in-game scripting language.

Pre-warning to my followers: I'm going to leave #reddit for good and I'm blogging about the reasons - mostly because reddit management gone crazy (latest: my #firefox isn't working any more for reddit) & also because of https://karl-voit.at/2020/10/23/avoid-web-forums/

If you did not already, organize yourself a decent #Atom/ #RSS aggregator and follow good content from there. My blog has also feeds to follow: https://karl-voit.at/how-to-use-this-blog/

I presume you could use Mastodon as a feed aggregator as well: https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=mastodon+as+rss+aggregator&ia=web

  • No Backup, No Distribution
  • User Interface Dictatorship
  • Rule Monopoly and Subjective Censorship
  • User Account Hurdle

@publicvoit those are all good reasons, but the biggest reason I gave up Reddit was that they are selling my writing on their website to companies like OpenAI to train their large language models. I believe it is extremely exploitative and unethical to take this information that was given to them for free to develop this technology that they use to generate massive profits for themselves.
