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.

Ah, Github's trying to fix that branch name vulnerability with a sledge hammer:
The head ref may contain hidden characters: "\u{1F980}\u{1F980}\u{1F980}"
(U+1F980 is 🦀)

I hate that so many news sites treat online content like this. “Someone” made this? It’d make a lot of people’s days to get credited for their work on a big site like that instead of it just getting credited to “someone”.

consider writing to Luigi to take the meme posting and the jokes to the next level of directly expressing your support to him
tips on how to write prisoners here: https://www.liberationlib.org/become-a-penpal.html
write to:
Luigi Mangione 52503-511
MDC Brooklyn
PO Box 392002
Brooklyn, NY 11232
assume all your letters will be read by the feds before he gets to read them. accordingly, consider using a pen name (and tell him, "my pen name is XYZ"), and a return address that isn't your home.
check the mail guidelines before you write/send to ensure your letters get to Luigi:

@hazelnot When in-ear earbuds became a thing initially, I remember people being pretty divided about whether it was pleasant or unsettling, for what it's worth. Especially because of the air pressure thing.

Things that seem to get missed in "how to solve the housing crisis in Canada" discussions:
* Abolish Airbnb
* Abolish multiple home ownership
* Fund housing co-ops that exist to keep housing prices low for their members, not for-profit solutions that exist to do the exact opposite
* Minimum density requirements to prevent and roll back unsustainable suburb development
I'm not trying to start a big thread of housing policy or "well actuallies" about how my ideas are bad, I'm just venting

I wish there was a way for me to communicate to a certain demographic
That their enemy is not the immigrants, racial minorities or the "blue-hair-and-pronouns" crowd as they see us
It's the rich bros who are trying to turn all our jobs into gig economy style exploitation

@morgann Another member of the optical-drive-having club! 
@mynameistillian Ah, that's probably gonna be helpful for some other stuff, thanks!
It doesn't help much for my immediate problem, though - I am watching House and it has, uh, quite a few gory scenes, and if you skip the ones that have no gory scenes, there's no show left :P
@elilla (Obviously I did wait for the parcel delivery guy with a handtruck because fuck making them carry all that shit by hand)
@elilla Lidl had a particularly strong version of those racks for 20 EUR a few years ago (much less flimsy than the typical 25 EUR fare here!) with, unwisely, flat-rate 5 EUR shipping. So I ordered like 10 of those racks at once, and they ended up shipping me all 250kg of it by parcel mail.
I've pretty much had no storage problems since, and just occasionally pull out a box from the stack and set it up

If you don't in the WordPress ecosystem, you may not understand how HUGE this post is
https://joost.blog/wordpress-leadership/
Joost is probably the second biggest figure in the entire WP ecosystem, only after Matt M himself. He is the biggest voice from the "Enterprise WordPress" world.
This is not anymore open source contributors complaining about governance. This is the Business WordPress demanding a leadership change and suggesting it either happens or a hard fork, backed by big business, is on the way.
gambling-related
Watching Coffeezilla's latest video on CSGO gambling, and it strikes me how much honesty there is from a lot of the people involved. I don't know what I expected, but it wasn't that.

You ever see someone say something else and go "oh, so other people go through this too, huh?"
