Decades of media about lone saviors stepping up in the moment of deepest need has really not aged well.

The nice thing about using a simple string-based light flickering system from the 90's is that you can share patterns really easily, across completely different engines. Here's one from Kitsune Tails in UE (thanks to @eniko)

@mynameistillian Once it's all said and done, you may want to run a cleaning cycle on your washer to make sure it doesn't retain any fungi growth inside.
There's commercial washing machine cleaners for this, or you could just toss in a dishwasher tablet, which is what I do (and which seems to be equivalent).
(Most washers have a specific 'cleaning cycle' mode of some kind, on my machine I activate it by holding a button combo, but it varies by machine)

@mynameistillian Probably also a good idea to let them dry in sunlight afterwards, fungi tend to not like direct sun

Predicting a bubble burst is notoriously hard. Shilling’s adage “markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent” is popular for a reason. Pretending that the AI Bubble is unusually hard to predict serves no purpose except to protect the egos of those prone to spurious prediction

HostEurope, a formerly European web and e-mail hosting provider acquired by GoDaddy in 2016, just informed its customers that it will move their IMAP folders and everything e-mail to Microsoft's MS365 offer.
This move does not only incur additional fees for many customers – it also raises privacy concerns.
We recommend you empty all of your IMAP folders now and move your e-mail (domains) to one of the trustworthy e-mail services listed here: https://switching.software/replace/gmail/
Trademarks used by HostEurope Group include 123-reg, Webfusion, Heart Internet, BrandFortress, Host Europe, Domainbox, Domainmonster, Domainfactory, DonHost, Sign-Up.to, velia.net and RedCoruna. Their users might also be affected.
PS: HostEurope has published the following FAQ:

My neurodivergent plea:
If you would like me to do something, please tell me the thing that you would like me to do AND that you would like me to do it. If relevant, specify when you would like the thing done.

@ryanboswell now I read something a while back about “right wing prepping” (doing it along to save yourself) vs “left wing prepping” (doing it as a community to help out each other). And I guess you could apply that to the self hosting movement as well 🤔

@eloy Embed an older version that doesn't support certain PDF forms features, and make sure the embedded PDF uses those features?

hmm so PDFs can embed JavaScript, has someone tried embedding pdf.js in a PDF?
re: nudity, jumpscare?, cute
@tastytea@very.tastytea.de Very cute and cuddleable :3
Nog een leuke anecdote: een van de lastigere dingen om kwijt te raken in een weggeefwinkel, is vierkante/rechthoekige borden.
Waarom? Omdat ze nergens anders mee te combineren zijn, en de reden dat ze bij de weggeefwinkel terechtkomen is meestal omdat het dus geen complete set meer is...

Pressed the wrong button and discovered a new feature in the tiling window manager I have been using for almost a decade. Feels like accidentally doing a backflip.
TIL: You can make window containers fullscreen in sway.
(in hindsight it's obvious, but woah)
@bumblebeedc (Organisatorisch is het verschil dan ook dat een goederenbank heel erg voor 1 groep mensen georganiseerd wordt door een andere groep, terwijl je een weggeefwinkel doorgaans 'met elkaar' organiseert, het heeft die hierarchie niet)
@bumblebeedc Goederenbanken fungeren als een 'goed doel' waarbij je spullen op mag halen als je arm bent; daar is een inkomenstoets, en het gaat echt om de spullen, net zoals een voedselbank om het eten gaat.
Weggeefwinkels zijn voor iedereen, arm of rijk, en hebben primair ook een sociale functie, het gaat dus niet alleen maar om de spullen maar ook om de onderliggende waarden van zelf dingen organiseren en sociale ruimtes creeren.
Dit gaat er nog iets verder op in: https://wiki.slightly.tech/books/een-weggeefwinkel-beginnen/page/wat-is-een-weggeefwinkel
Ik ben inmiddels zelf maar begonnen met wat te schrijven over hoe je een weggeefwinkel begint: https://wiki.slightly.tech/books/een-weggeefwinkel-beginnen
