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

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
@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
@pingiun Learning NixOS takes more than 7 hours though :p
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
@trainingmontage@hachyderm.io I don't know about COVID specifically, but there is @disability as a posting group
Blackface, police, intimidation of protesters
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

@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 :/

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.
