classifieds nonsense (2)
I should see if my "hide commercial spam from the classifieds site" browser plugin also supports just hiding every single commercial seller, probably
classifieds nonsense
Bid 30 EUR on a pile of 6 second-hand board games that all frequently sell on classifieds for 5-10 EUR each. Got a response "no, I want 70 EUR for those". Looked at profile; "commercial seller".
Should've seen this coming, I guess...

re: grapheneos
@aroacemagicalnerd It reminds me an awful lot of that thing that bullies and abusers alike do, "look at what you made me do", and how that shifts blame to the most vulnerable person in the exchange

May 2025 be the year when people collectively agree that capitalism is just not worth it.

And it's not like the claim here is vague or in dispute either. It essentially boils down to "GrapheneOS could include espeak, but doesn't, because of the license". That claim is *directly* confirmed by the linked post from the project, which states as much.
So where is the misrepresentation, exactly?

me: "I shall organize my cables into boxes. this box is for AC adapters, this one is for ethernet"
someone who wanted to troll me, specifically: "behold, I have invented power over ethernet"

The most important factor when selecting which hat to wear is, very obviously, does this coordinate nicely with the socks I'm currently carrying? Do not worry Bella, I've got you covered @madboy99
@njion I bet that approximately none of those people would consider it acceptable if a cyclist were to have an airhorn on their bike.

Like, don't get me wrong, I certainly understand the frustration of being criticized for (often unpaid) work, particularly if the criticisms are inaccurate in some way.
But when you're writing lengthy and loud posts about how you've been "attacked" and "harmed" and "misrepresented" and whatnot, but none of those posts ever actually make a concrete point about *what* exactly is being misrepresented, then I suspect there's something else going on.

Anyone else getting "looking for an excuse to stop doing it" impressions from this?

"You attacked us [by criticizing us publicly] so now we're pausing all work on accessibility" sure is a stance to take, hey

LB: you should be an organ donor if you can. They do typically wait until you're done with the organ in question.
(Typically, there are some living donor things you can do, which are also awesome and good)

@bumblebeedc Heh, Vogelrok feels like they kind of *tried* to do a gradual brake and then realized halfway through that they ran out of track

@bumblebeedc It's just baffling, every single Vekoma coaster no matter how unique or special or old seems to have this exact same behaviour, and only theirs 😅 Sometimes you at least get an (ineffective) courtesy speed reduction before it then slams you back into your seat anyway at the end
"Does it give you whiplash in the brake section" is an entirely too reliable way to identify a Vekoma coaster
