Hey, which app allows an to be used as a ?

tyil,

@smallcircles I'd assume all of them, emoji are just characters in the end anyway. But the real question is, why would you want this? Its just a less accessible means of using regular words for hashtags.

tyil,

@smallcircles

thus far only streams app supports them

Seems to work on .> They can convey meaning well

If everyone agrees on the meaning of the picture, sure, but this is not the case. Various emojis can have vastly different meanings to different groups of people. If you're also going to add in custom emojis this is going to be even worse, you're throwing around emojis that are literally undefined by the majority of the world population.

With your example "boosts appreciated", making a hashtag BoostsAppreciated is clear, concise, and accessible to all. I've never even heard of a dedicated emoji for this, and if you suddenly started to use those I'd have to wonder what you're trying to convey, and use the alt-text to actually get anywhere. Seems like more hassle than just using text in the first place.> They can be used in addition to other textual hashtags

This is true, but do you expect people to just use double the hashtags going forward? One with readable text, the other in image form which you then have to hope works in every context?> textual hashtags [...] aren't always as accessible in their meaning either

Everyone can make "bad" hashtags, but I don't think making the pool worse is going to improve that. If any, it'd make it worse, now people can make bad hashtags with both text and images.> There are cultures around emoji use, that give meaning in certain contexts, and those cultures are part of social fabric and cohesion then

That sounds like a rather big assumption. Are you aware of any cultures that are currently unable to use hashtags, that have a strict need to use basically any image they can think of? To me this sounds incredibly unlikely, especially in the context of the .

@sophiajt just introduced : an systems language that is easier to use and learn, possibly quite interesting for application development. Will supposedly have interoperability. Very interesting!

An example of a circular linked list
Lots of roads ahead: Continue building reference compiler, better abstractions, Rust interop and more exploration of easy-to-use safety mechanisms

tyil,

@arendjr @sophiajt It's hard to due to its name, especially considering the time of year, so it'd be nice if people stopped re-using common English words for their pet projects. The language itself looks quite interesting, though

Waking up ​:YerinTired:​

tyil,

@dwarf Waking up isn't so bad on a day off, but of course today is shit weather... It just started raining, too 😮‍💨

tyil,

@dwarf Rain or no, I am going to smoke some meat on my bbq today. They can take my sun, but they cannot take my hobby of good food

Man I ordered something from a store and I can pick it up 2 hours later. The future is here.

Kinda want to nap with these kinds of temperatures

tyil,

@dwarf What's stopping you?

tyil,

@dwarf You have colleagues who can pick up the work when you nap, don't you?

tyil,

@dwarf You sure are special!

I ate.

@adiz lol my bad - my tut client mixed up the threads.

The only alternative I see to Matrix right now is XMPP. I still run my own server. But it doesn’t come even close to compete with the number of available bridges (that’s actually the main thing I use Matrix for).

The only thing that can still compete with Matrix when it comes to bridges/integrations is still IRC+bitlbee. But that ecosystem is literally falling apart, it’s largely based on libpurple extensions that often haven’t been touched in years, and of course you can forget decent mobile-native clients.

Or maybe just run alternative servers to Synapse, but so far I’ve had a mixed experience with them - Conduit is definitely snappier, but I’ve had trouble to set up many of my bridges, which seem to be primarily designed for Synapse.

tyil,

@fabio @adiz Are you following slidge development yet? For me it offers pretty much everything I might need in terms of bridges except for #IRC, but Biboumi already exists to take care of that one.

Slidge doesn't look very mature yet, but given some time it may be the thing we were missing. I wouldn't mind some cleaner #XMPP clients for desktop use either, but the existing options aren't all terrible at the least.

Short work week this week, but apparently it's also a holiday for some people today? Such luxury.

tyil,

@dwarf What kind of holiday is today? I know 4th and 5th are holidays, but those were also weekend days this year so it didn't matter

tyil,

@cnx @dwarf Excuse you I'm a fan of the k-pop girls specifically. The fact they make music is largely a bonus.

And in the Netherlands we sadly do not get bonus holidays if any of them fall on the weekends. The cattle needs to keep working.

tyil,

@cnx @dwarf Can Koreans legally only have sex on holidays or something?

tyil,

@cnx But you guys have regular weekends, right? Besides that, with how cute the average Korean girl is surely the men just get energy when they see them walking around?

tyil,

@dwarf @cnx We don't want you to feel left out!

tyil,

@dwarf @cnx It is a Monday after all, I have to do something to get through the day. Besides, I enjoy learning about different cultures!

tyil,

@cnx @dwarf

women also go to work

Bad choice tbh. For sexual purposes, however, the women don't have to put in as much physical labour as men, so it shouldn't matter too much to begin with.> most men wear a horrible haircut

This could be true, I don't really look at male Korean haircuts. This should be easy to fix, too. Hair grows automatically and you can reshape it as needed.> just weekends are obviously not enuf

Maybe for you young people but at my senior age its plenty.> why did thou leave @dwarf out of this convo tho

I gathered from his previous responses he did not wish to indulge in the sexual proclivities of the Korean population.

tyil,

@cnx This is correct, but not by my choice! I'm working on convincing the cute little indo girl that is currently considering herself my girlfriend to let herself become impregnated by me personally.

So far we've gotten to "next year" as a compromise for babytime, but she also wants me to visit Indonesia first so I can meet her parents in person.

I’m going down the wooden cutting board rabbit hole :bunowohop:

tyil,

@cnx All cutting boards drink up a lot of oil in their initial seasoning, it is a hidden cost when you buy one. I used almost the entire bottle of oil I bought with it!

But I think it was worth it, I have a nice, large cutting board now and its a joy to cut on. I have since also invested in higher quality knives, which makes the prep part of cooking much nicer in general.

We're looking for some new maintainers to join the org 👀

Our GTK port is currently minimally maintained, due mostly to our reliance on the Colloid theme as our base.

We'd ideally use a more flexible base, or write the theme from scratch. This means we'd welcome maintainers who have pre-existing knowledge with GTK theming.

More details can be found @ https://github.com/catppuccin/gtk/issues/164, or you can join the Discord for real time communication (https://discord.gg/catppuccin)

Boosts appreciated for visibility!

tyil,

@catppuccin If you're using your project is not worth supporting. Use a free software platform, and preferably drop while you're at it.

Ofcourse its a fosstodon user that goes hard on making sure as much proprietary garbage is used in their lives...

tyil,

@catppuccin is free software and has CI capabilities. Discussions in email have worked fine for decades, and still works for quite large projects.

As for real-time chat, still exists, and doesn't even need me to register an account to ask a question. There's plenty of good webclients to keep the barrier lower than Discord could ever do. Creating a bot for IRC is perhaps one of the easier tasks an aspiring programmer could work on. I have no clue what "forum channels" are supposed to be, but I'm quite certain it is not a required feature to develop software.

It seems incredibly bad faith to pretend these things don't exist or aren't known about.
