Bitcoin mining operation Riot Blockchain earns more money in July by not mining, effectively mines without paying for power
So I went to Pride in Amsterdam and I have to say it was pretty disappointing to see less trans flags than I saw at MCH2022 (also there were cops)
@bgcarlisle Ah yes, the delicious "cheese" snacks that have a composition so suspect that they might actually end up being unintentionally vegan

inverse grump, in defense of looting
Also, I'm fucking fascinated how long colonizers have been doing what they did with "lút," "woke," "cancelled," "identity politics," etc. which is to appropriate language of the colonized, load it with negative connotations or exactly invert its meaning, and then weaponize it against the people it was stolen from. It's a few hundred years past time to clock that tendency, I feel fucking vindicated in grumping about that

@savanni It will never stop frustrating me how Webpack displaced Browserify entirely on the basis of misleading claims, despite actually being *worse* on every single point at the time

The problem is not with Electron.
It's entirely with how Electron is used.
Well, and webpack. Webpack sucks.

Someone on here was saying that his late dad had had a load of stuff on punched cards, but he didn't know what they said.
I said it wouldn't be difficult to write an image processing routine that would read them if you scanned them.
I can't now find the email. If you're out there, did you? I can help if you like.
@thufie Oh, I didn't even read the article - it's Bloomberg, so I assume that it's the usual faux-neutral "rich white guy" bullshit. Just thought the photo was interestingly, uh, informative.
@mu @polymerwitch The "free software" movement is not actually any less affected by this problem, and the real-world ideological differences between "open-source" and "free software" round down to zero.
Mh?
