Technical debt collector and general hype-hater. Early 30s, non-binary, ND, poly, relationship anarchist, generally queer.
Sometimes horny on main (behind CW), very much into kink (bondage, freeuse, CNC, and other stuff), and believe it or not, very much a submissive bottom :p
Feel free to flirt, but if you want to actually meet up and/or do something with me, lewd or otherwise, please tell me explicitly or I won't realize :) I'm generally very open to that sort of thing!
Further boundaries: boosts are OK (including for lewd posts), DMs are open. But the devil doesn't need an advocate; I'm not interested in combative arguing in my mentions. I am however happy to explain things in-depth when asked non-combatively.
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.

You know that sci-fi trope of "some mysterious historical event resulted in the deletion of all research and humanity regressed by decades overnight, but we don't know how it happened"?
... yeah.
@scanlime Can I learn this power of being removed from meetings? That seems like a useful skill to have under my belt

I think it's kind of fucking insane that not absolutely, positively everything is open source. Cars are a great example. Every time a new model of car comes out, mechanics around the world have to collectively reverse engineer on it, and find out what the car company broke this time around. The amount of time and effort that is wasted by these extremely talented people that could have been spent just fixing the fucking thing, if only they had specs, designs, firmware source code, etc is abhorrent.

Meshtastic is absolute garbage driven by youtube and preppers, and I am frustrated that its eating all the oxygen in this space.
Please stop making out that it is practical for usage anywhere other than countryside with line of sight and seven other users who all have baofengs anyway.
@riley So what I'm getting from this is "it's only really worth it if you are literally Amazon" 🙃

Warum die KI fragen, wenn du dir auch einfach selbst eine falsche Antwort ausdenken kannst?

When I talk about how Black people of all genders experience an ungendering in an antiblack world
When I talk about how gender is always about race
This is a good illustration of what I'm getting at.

Perhaps a bold take, but: if your organization can't put together a comprehensive manual for your software - to say nothing of readability or user friendliness, just _a_ document that tells people what the software does - I actually don't think you know what your software does, and that's scary as hell

The mirror image of RTFM is that many software companies - most, probably, at least among B2C firms - refuse to Write the Fucking Manual in the first place
People keep claiming that they use AWS because it's "easier than running my own server" and then I see them an hour later running into the most asinine and specialized issues and, honestly, I just do not believe them

Note to white fedizens: Your takeaway from @CaribenxMarciaX 's article should NOT be to witch hunt all Black fedizens named Jay, or to police YOUR perceptions of peoples' Blackness (see my prior post on this). Plenty of Black people named Jay on the Fediverse are real people, not scammers. The ISSUE is most of you, to quote Dr. X here, "do not know nor engage with communities of color," and ESPECIALLY not in a meaningful way as equals, and ESPECIALLY not with any nuance.

@smveerman "De minister wil de pluriformiteit in het nieuwe stelsel waarborgen door de nieuwe omroephuizen te verplichten alle geluiden in de samenleving te laten horen."
Ah ja, zoals de NTR dus al deed, door onderbelichte zaken naar voren te brengen. En die wordt dan opgeheven.
Wat een gelul ook weer van een uitermate racistisch kabinet. Ik zou er geld om verwedden dat "alle geluiden" hier vooral both-sidesism betekent dat voornamelijk de gevestigde partijen ten goede komt.

there's some kind of morbid fascination in me about how so many fucked up things that are happening to us right now make amazing lore for some ruined grimdark cyberpunk world. we might forget important data on climate change and technology and agriculture because we stored all our data on cloud servers that belonged to megacorpos? holy fucking shit this is a fucking ttrpg campaign right here. with scathing critique of technocapital!

@alina I take full responsibility for the horror that I have created :p
@alina Nope, BuyVM - but this is a really cursed setup (LV that glues together local disk and network attached storage for root fs) so it's probably not quite the provider's fault
@navi I made a similar choice around the same time, and it's remarkable how well it can work, and how quickly you become uninteresting as a target once someone realizes this...
