My spoons are limited, so I may not always have the energy to respond to messages.
Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.

It really annoys me when people go "well, big companies are complicated, they are not single entities with consistent decisionmaking" in response to criticism of such companies and their actions
As if that's somehow a justification, rather than a clear sign that they've clearly grown to a scale where they are unaccountable and fundamentally cannot be trusted, and without ever asking the question of "wait but then how can we ever hold anybody accountable for anything?"

misskey-forkbomb.cf should be suspended and purged not just on Misskey and its forks, but also all other software instances because it puts a lot of empty noise into all databases.
@charlotte @meena The "Tag across Europe" series on YouTube very quickly got hilarious once they entered Germany as well
@esther@strangeobject.space More seriously, I vaguely recall someone actually making a vtop-like tool called 'bottom'
lewd?
@esther@strangeobject.space Unfortunately the top/bottom ratio rarely seems to be 1:1 like that
Though I guess that if it was gonna happen in any show, this was always a pretty good candidate
Well, I sure didn't expect to find "OpenStreetMap contributors" in the credits of a TV show
ableism rant
@shrinkthinks That sort of take is also just incredibly ableist, from a neurodiversity point of view. "People cannot possibly have different equally valid ways of experiencing social interaction from the ones I have, society would fall apart without eye contact", to paraphrase the general sentiment.

not now sweetie, daddy is trying to match the font that a corporation uses in their promotional materials so that he can abuse them in their own language

You know what's really lovely about having a post favorited by someone here on Mastodon? It means something I've said resonated with someone. And that's pretty damned priceless as far as I'm concerned. So, yeah, favoriting doesn't 'do' anything except make someone feel good. Isn't that reason enough?
re: ADHD-friendly notetaking software idea
@pinoaffe I specifically don't want to look at existing things, because it will take me entirely too many spoons to untangle all the stuff I *don't* care about

@f0x Isn't there some limit above which it breaks federation?

mutual aid request; begpost please boost; 
; trans gal in dire need.
now that the cat begging has ended, here comes the regular begging :')
these last two days I've been completely shattered. I've been mostly sleepless and unable to eat properly because some people decided I was rude online and because of that I deserve slander and harassment. When I'm able to eat two meals a day I take it as a win.
I need money to cover my monthly bills and my father's abusive demands and I just can't find any work at all.
if you could spare anything i'd really appreciate but a boost is already good enough.
also, I'd much rather work than keep on begging, but I'll do what it takes to... survive.
if you have any work that need to be done in traslation, pixel art, game design, audio treatment, text revisions, tarot readings and whatever that you could send my way I'd be really happy.
thanks everybody once again for your continued support.
@f0x I honestly would not assume Safari to be correctly isolating the cache
@whatanerd I do not understand why language auto-detection apparently isn't implemented. There's a well-tested library for this from Google(!) that has been around for a decade by this point and works *completely* offline, with a shockingly high accuracy rate.
(Source: used to run a multilingual activism site where I used this library to classify articles)

I was not kidding about this being long, I had like 70 characters left of the rather generous character limit on here
