- they/them, he/him, whatever, it's not like I have any idea either 🙃
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.

type of guy
Interprets every single direct criticism of their views as a direct personal challenge and affront of their character... even when they weren't even the one being talked about
type of guy
Absolutely refuses to consider the needs or experiences of someone who doesn't look like them, even if it wouldn't cost them anything to do so, and insists on being Objectively Correct solely because their claims align with their own experiences and beliefs

technology rant
@elilla Reminds me of this powerful kunstbüro poster I saw at GPN. It was for an artist talk by @charlotteeifler titled <<IMAGINE ALL TECH IS MADE BY PEOPLE WHO LOVE YOU>>
Didn't see the talk, but that poster stuck with me. Just imagine.

I don't necessarily disagree that phones might be harmful for kids' development.
I just don't know if they're nearly as harmful as say, repeated covid infections, a collapsing biosphere, a justifiably bleak vision of their future, or even a prevalent lack of agency, independence, and spaces for socialisation.
I'd focus on those first. Then phones.

delivery options in the UK:
UPS: our drivers are wearing shorts 365 days of the year. this magically results in packages arriving. we're not sure how this works either.
Royal Mail: is it a letter? we're good at letters. haven't quite got the hang of boxes though.
Yodel: we thought about delivering it and it's the thought that counts.
Evri, wearing a fake moustache and a t-shirt that says "totally not Hermes": your package has been thrown in a bush just off the M6. fuck you.
A while ago, Aldi in NL recalled some cutlery set due to "having sharp edges which can result in injury".
Like, I understand what they were going for there, but I think they could've phrased the problem a little more clearly 
health
Yeah so I'm fairly sure by this point that I have *some* form of EDS. But I'm not sure what exactly, and it doesn't help that I don't have the infamous bendy limbs

Guy at the store kept making comments about Monday and although I had been under the assumption that it was Sunday when I headed out this morning, it's hard to keep track this time of year.
So I continued on with my Monday until I reached another stop on my errands, that is closed on Sunday.
🤔
All I know is that it's January.

it's sort of remarkable that despite the entire internet being designed to sell you products these days, the actual process of buying anything on the internet is absolutely awful. like if someone told me 15 years ago that the whole point of the internet would be to sell people things i'd assume that finding what you're looking for would be incredibly easy and every website would look like mcmaster-carr. but instead every website looks like a online casino held together by duct tape and every company is constantly lying to you about everything

There is no justifiable reason for so many different extensible (yet mutually incompatible) bundlers to exist, given how trivial of a task bundling is, and the fact that they *do* all exist should raise some uncomfortable questions about why

i hacked a led backlight into a thinkpad r61 this weekend. was kinda pissed at myself because i did the same thing years ago with a x200, but didn't keep notes, and had to basically reverse-engineer myself. so this time i kept notes, which means that in case you need some guidance for hardware crimes, i got you covered:

This is the most nail on the head version of this meme I've seen.
