If your "solutions" offered to disabled trans people - a demographic that, historically, does not have much in the way of financial stability let alone disposable income - deciding to protect themselves online in ways you find uncomfortable boils down to "spend money," you didn't understand the fucking problem in the first goddamn place.

it's really ironic that since ms acquired sysinternals they put a bunch of their old documentation on their website
because now you have a microsoft documentation website with a sentence that starts "Microsoft doesn't document it, but"

@joepie91 I've heard that the victims and survivors of true cults and pyramid schemes generally don't appreciate those kind of jokes either

Paw Patrol snacks from Lidl under urgent recall because the URL on the pack has been compromised and is serving hardcore porn
Like, joke among yourselves all you want, of course, and I have no problem with the self-deprecating 'pyramid scheme' jokes. But you need to be very careful not to become That Guy From The Meme Distro Who Won't Shut Up About It
Once again frustrated by a handful of people trying to push #NixOS recommendations and/or memes into inappropriate places to try and drum up hype
It's good enough to solve real problems, it doesn't need this sort of shit, and it just turns people off from it, please stop doing this, thank you

Boomers always say “dress for the job you want, not the one you have” but I always get kicked out when I come to an interview with a maid outfit and my collar. This is fucking bullshit :papika-angy:

feels like there should be some kind of clever human-organizational process ritual/hack that can organically and without explicit paid management hierarchy tap the skills of tens-of-thousands-strong masses of laid-off computer-touchers, to build various not-necessarily-profitable software artifacts capable of utterly obliterating their former shitty employers
and like a math proof or a geometric tiling it's just a matter of discovering it

Gotta express my appreciation for the pixie.town mods here - 300+ boosts on my KF post (that I can see) over the span of a full day, and yet I only got one shitty comment from an obscure single-user instance, and only a couple of "missing the point" responses.
Those numbers would likely have been *much* higher if moderation of shitty instances wasn't so strict here (as was the case on eg. Twitter).

leftist antisemitism, anarchists
I hate the dread I feel when I see an anarchist profile pic or emoji in the replies to a post about leftist antisemitism.
Someday, that dread will prove unfounded and I will be pleasantly surprised by the reply.
Today was not that day.

Writing research: first aid for drowning
I seem to remember being told that a person who's been drowning should be placed on their side, knees drawn up, so that they can cough out the water. But none of the online resources mention that. Is that advice wrong?
I'm writing a scene where a character has been briefly submerged in water and breathed some water in. They are lying on their back, starting to regain consciousness, and they're starting to cough up water. What should the other characters do to help them?
There are no other injuries.
