meds 

hmm so that's a bit of a pain, most likely going to 15mg methylphenidate (pending blood pressure checkup on Wednesday), but now my prescription fulfilled with 10mg and 5mg tablets I have to take one each

instead of “hey i made this tool”

try, “hey i am thinking of making this tool” first and get opinions before you do the work that you’ll inevitably have to delete bc you didnt ask for opinions

free software advocates when you ask them to take an intersectional view on the ethics of using certain software, going beyond the question of 'is this thing foss or not': ⁉️ 😕 😠 🤬

me: look, i made a thing, it would be cool if others got use out of it too

*others start using it*

ahhh why would you actually use my software

Kinda nice to click to a remote post link and see they're running Mastodon 4.x but disabled the unauthenticated API

The UX is abysmal of course, with Mastodon just spamming a list of 401 errors, but good that they prioritize user safety.

Wonder if they'd be interested in FediFox Shield, of course :)

Does your ruling class spark joy? If not, thank them and throw them away.

the opening poem with the same title, Collapsed in Sunbeams, is really nice

LB - the expectation and blaming I've seen from techbros on here about how if people don''t want X, then they should do "niche settings thing / cultural thing" (e.g. turn on no index, add nobot or whatever the noresearch tag is to your bio)

Most of the world does not live in your little space and has completely different specialist and niche knowledge than you do.

Saying them not knowing that is consent to act on them is beyond irresponsible.

another 40+ notifications.. i wonder if that toot will reach 4 digits. pretty wild given how many (very large) instances are suspended here

Bigger ND Filters for the new camera arrived, long exposures are on the menu again! Conditions were not ideal for these two and I messed up a bit but I still like the results.

hey if google does ever show up on the fediverse i'll be well prepared

Shoutout to @jalcine@todon.eu for hipping me to Gitea going corporate.

sigh This is why we can't have nice things.

:boost_requested:​ A question for folks who *aren't* developers:

What would be the most important things/qualities for you in a website/page builder? Specifically, in the kind of builder that lets you build in some limited amount of interactivity (like forum functionality).

Developers, sit this one out please. Boosting is of course appreciated, though.

Wow. Minnesnowta@universeodon.com jumped in my mentions, clearly feeling called out by the idea that wanting massive police operations to attack unhoused people might be fascist, got tired of telling on themselves, and blocked me.

What icon do I use for "This domain is already in your list of suspended instances", I'm at a loss

options: forkaweso.me/Fork-Awesome/icon

I think it should mostly be an informative hint, because it won't prevent you from including it in your import (you might even want to, to change the metadata to that from the import)
