a lot of the debate around defederating seems to place a weirdly sacrosanct value in global, complete federation, and that seems a bit silly tbh. Defederation still allows interaction for individuals, but also there's nothing special or magical about global federation that makes it more worthy of protection that the people being protected by defederation.

subtoot, gab/nazi defederating 

kinda sad that the guy from feneas.org is complaining about instances blocking instances that refuse to block gab

like a bigger federation network is somehow more important than protecting people....

Why are you loggin into the Hetzner admin console?

1% actually doing vps stuff
99% copying their border-shadow style I love so much

just bringing hot water in a thermos to refill my tea mug was such a good idea I can drink so much tea without going downstairs

also I love how you can see the sheen from my rainbow tube light on the thinkpad

I feel like maybe I should write a blogpost/thingie about my perspective on JavaScript. The thing is, I am both a very firm believer that sites should use a minimal amount of JS and degrade as smoothly as possible. On the other hand, I enjoy writing full-fledged web-*applications* with frameworks such as React. I do this because it's by far the most accessible, and nicest to use language for writing such software.

Anyone has good/bad experiences with the Gatsby static site generator? It seems alright

@f0x Omg so much!!! I’ve just been playing around with Sass trig functions to animate the main nav section of my website across an elliptical arc leaving a trail of rainbows behind it
