@davey_cakes Dissenting data: I've had one case of a woman doing so. But yeah, definitely primarily seems to be guys.

Did you know there's a large raccoon mural in Lisbon that is made out of trash?

Now you do!

@researchfairy Or the online equivalent: rainbow flag in your chat display name. Brings 'em all out of the woodwork in minutes.

colorado mass shooting, my thoughts. 

what happened there makes me angry. it makes me fierce.

we need to talk. i urge you to open the thread if you care about the lives of queer people.

re: injury, ph-, ph+, blood tests 

This makes at-home blood tests an absolute nightmare though, the pinprick wound basically insta-heals, can't get any useful amount of blood out of it whatsoever

injury, ph-, ph+ 

My skin heals so *absurdly* quickly. Spilled near-boiling water over my hand less than 24 hours ago, first-degree burns on my fingers, and by now it's almost fully healed again, not even heat-sensitive anymore.

me: working from home gives me the opportunity to focus on tasks free from the the distractions of a noisy office!

TROUT

LET IT ALL OUT

THESE ARE THE FISH I CAN DO WITHOUT

@pingiun I more mean the actual setup and maintenance part of NixOS - it's already trivial to get it running on pretty much any VPS (see eg. nixos-infect) but that's not where most of the complexity and learning curve is

Please suggest: instances with non-white admins or mods 

I would like to be able to make recommendations to BIPOC who have been scared off by the (non)moderation of mastodon.social and some of the other bigger instances.

If you know of an instance where there are non-white people who are doing the moderation (and also that the moderation is good) please let me know.

Thank you, comrades! <3

Minecraft tech help question 

Minecraft won't launch. I backed up .minecraft and tried reinstalling. The launcher hangs forever at "Cleaning up". No obvious errors in the logs but can paste them up somewhere if anyone thinks that'll help.

KDE neon 5.26, Linux kernel 5.15.0-52
#minecraft 🐘

Does anybody have like, an actual LIST of known-good instances with decent moderation and not of full of chuds (nazis/terfs/swerfs/etc.), that are accepting new users?

(For sharing with users who are currently stock on mastodon dot social or w/e)

boosts appreciated, also if there's a hashtag that obviously goes with this kind of question let me know

@jerry@infosec.exchange Oddly fitting that the edit history on this post shows "-1 edits"

@trainingmontage@hachyderm.io I don't know about COVID specifically, but there is @disability as a posting group

Blackface, police, intimidation of protesters 

@doorbraak

In the toot above 👆 I'm replying to is a link to youtube video of a violent group in blackface that are targeting antiracism protesters in the netherlands on their way to protest blackface. Video is a collection from various sources about what happened.

The police stood by and didn't intervene to 'avoid escalation'

The netherlands is a racist cesspool

I wish I had the option to require a message along with a follow request. Kind of how when you sign up for a server, sometimes you have to give a reason for why you wanna sign up. I wanna do the same thing with all the anonymous newbies trying to follow me

@stevelord The unfortunate thing about corporations is that, unlike your typical nazis and the like, they tend to do a lot of damage subtly and *without* loud explosions to notify people of it :/
