I play strategy games, write software, and stream on Peertube (not necessarily in that order). Also, sock monkeys! Preferred pronouns: he/him/his.

Is Xcode actually a program, or a fractal zipbomb of nested installers?

Software update: "New Xcode!"
I fill with dread.
Two hours later: Finally launch Xcode.
Xcode: "Oh, did you want a compiler?? Update tools! Update components!"
Two hours later: press "Run".
Xcode: "Suddenly you have no simulators! Those old ones, they were no good! Download a single simulator!"
Four hours later...

Everyone should immediately stop contributing to the stack overflow and its network. The human touch is what made it unique. Delete your profile from SO AND all your answers. Freeloaders are making money out of human contributions.

OpenAI, Mircosoft, and Google together kill the open web. Thousands of independent blogs and forums are now nowhere in search engines or pushed back to page two to support their AI and partnerships with Reddit, StackOverflow, and more. Many humans contributed to these sites hoping to build a knowledge base for humanity, but now greedy people like Sama and OpenAI are taking over everything.

I want to record an audio book that's just 8 hours of breathing and page turning and then right at the end I say, "Oh, you mean out loud?"

Hi fedi colleagues, let’s see if I can get #FediHired.

I was laid off from my previous role due to a slow burn company strategy of reducing expenses to improve margin and reach profitability. I survived the first layoff of 25%, and then multiple quarters after that, but eventually, the day after completing my largest project, my role was eliminated due to a change in strategic direction.

I am now seeking a bioinformatics or data science role in the life sciences / biotech.

Well, I got my first white supremacist reply from the fediverse after posting an article about Elon from Flipboard.

I reported and blocked the account. I also looked at the instance admin's account and it's clear he's also a white supremacist. So that instance will be blocked on flipboard.com and flipboard.social as well as shared with other instance admins as a problematic instance for them to take action if they also deem appropriate. Took all of 2 minutes to help make the fediverse a bit better for everyone.

And the best thing is that anyone in the fediverse can do this too. Decentralized moderation FTW.

If you think that Biden isn't harm reduction from Trump, I don't even know what to say.

I don't like the man, and I have more reasons to dislike him than most, he wasn't even in my top 5 in the last election.

But the difference between him and Trump is night and day

"It's just cryptofascism" no, no it isn't, but even to the degree it were, the amount of damage that Trump can do is orders of magnitude higher and claiming these are identical is accelerationist at best and genocidal at worst

Don't like Biden's handling of Israel and Palestine?

Great, neither do I.

But. If you honestly think that the situation will be improved by Trump I have shares of a bridge to sell you. Same with Ukraine.

Now, what this does mean is that voting is not sufficient. It isn't enough to vote. It isn't enough to just show up once every four years and check a few boxes and then go home.

So go unionize your workplace. Get involved with mutual aid organizations like Food Not Bombs.

We have another , y'all!

Pass around the collection plate, and I'll distribute the mix tapes? Two albums and a 3-track sampler are up for grabs.

Boosts are the best! Thank you!
