I hope everyone except my landlord has a great day

The code I'm trying to write never worked, doesn't work, and will never work. I am the worst kind of fool, a clown, a knave. The audacity of thinking I could simply understand exif encoding by reading papers and looking at code!

printed them at uni yesterday (A3 size) and they look great, but the scaling was wrong. Corrected for that and printed again today, good to know the scaling is consistently wrong across printers across buildings hah

nl pol, police violence 

So in NL, leftist/climate/social/etc. activists consistently get beaten up by police and arrested overnight to break up protests, with zero recourse or consequences

Meanwhile a bunch of nazi-adjacent farmers in tractors have been blocking highways all day today, endangering drivers, and issuing explicit threats of violence to politicians, and the police are "in talks with them" and "do not have the capacity to break it up"

Sitting downstairs w the breeze listening to drum and bass and it's such a Congress vibe I'm so upset I can't get high rn and vibe forever

And, just to clarify: The Open Collective is here to stay for the foreseeable future.

We just wanted to do a little bit more of a concentrated fundraising this first month, so that's why we have donation matching up to a total of €500 donations. Which we have about €90 left of!

We're approaching the last week of this month of kickstarted fundraising on our Open Collective!

So let us tell you a little about the thought behind one of our tiers:
Stable Sloth

The idea is that if everyone who uses GoToSocial to some capacity pitches in with €1/month (in this case once a year, to reduce fees) will go a long way. And it was inspired by @Tusky having that as an option.

So if you haven't yet, you too could pitch in with just €1 / month (once a year)
