@redstarfish @schratze Fascist folks will write very useful software for fascist folks. I can’t believe there’s even a debate about whether it’s good to work with fascists if they agree to slap a GPL license on their work.
“Hey, let me introduce you to my friend Chad. He’s a Nazi, but he sure writes some sick code.”
Yeah, no.
*smh*
@darius @ckie I think it depends a lot on context and presentation. In this case though, I'd definitely say that "you have ended up on my timeline. i will now show you nix" is a needlessly smug way to go about it. The whole thing would read very different if it were introduced as "maybe Nix would be an option? as it works out-of-the-box there" instead, for example.
(With the understanding that you'd only need Nix here and not NixOS)
@evelyn@misskey.bubbletea.dev This is not that surprising, considering that any means or understanding of genuine community building has been violently hammered out of 'western' culture, and therefore "affiliating with a corporate Brand" is the closest thing to community-building that most people still have available to them
@f0x I think you have a case of academic kink

much like 2020, a lot of "the left" is ignoring the need for drastic action that needs to be taken wrt attacks on queer people and reproductive autonomy. don't pay attention to people telling you that we need some ultimate "mass movement" all we have is now and right here
@TakeV Almost certainly nowhere near as much as is spent on unnecessary *work*, such as nearly all analytics, marketing and advertising related work.

We've literally got shortages of the materials used to make a load of technology, and corporations are manufacturing non-serviceable, and even disposable versions of that technology.
Fucking capitalism.
re: no context
@maia Then again I am 0% surprised that some Google service's Dutch translation is bad
re: no context
@maia (And if it were an *appointment*, then it wouldn't make sense to say you've been "invited to", because it's something you *made* yourself :p)
re: no context
@maia Oof. That's a bad translation - they seem to have translated 'meeting' to 'afspraak', but that only really makes sense if it's an *appointment*, rather than some sort of collective meeting, which you'd generally translate to "vergadering" (and then the sentence would be correct)
no context
@maia That doesn't even make sense in Dutch

y’all where is the safest place for lgbtqia people in the carribbean
@evelyn@misskey.bubbletea.dev And of course "stranger danger" itself has historically mostly been a conservative political hobbyhorse rather than a genuine significant risk...
@evelyn@misskey.bubbletea.dev The bigger problem with that 'education' IMO is that "who" was always defined as fellow humans, not exploitative corporations, who it was apparently totes fine to send your blood sample to

lol my fucking (stock AT&T) router ran a whole scan of my network and tried to log into my NAS repeatedly until I got an email from my NAS saying it had blocked a local IP address 😅

Things autism research could be about:
- How does autism radar work?
- Do we have an easier time communucating with other autistics because our ways of communication are similar, or because we've all had to learn to accomodate the people we're talking to?
- What can be done to prevent and treat autistic burnout?
- What even *is* autistic burnout exactly?
- What effects does masking have on your mental health?
- What autistic traits are actually traits of autism, and which ones are trauma responses?
- How is a non-traumatized autistic brain work?
- How can we better accomodate autistic people?
What autism research is about:
- How do we make the autistic people stop existing?

I keep thinking of the reddit post along the lines of "wait, in the US you can actually punch a hole in a wall? i thought when that happened on a tv show, it was like a meta joke on how everything was filmed on a set made of cheap materials, but actually all their walls are like that?"
@evelyn@misskey.bubbletea.dev In fact, it's so interesting that a (rare) second-hand unit nowadays can easily sell for more than it used to cost brand new back then!
