Linux UX opinions
Seriously
Can you tell if this window is scrolled up to the very top, or is it just close to the top?
Linux UX opinions
This terrible window is a great encapsulation of a lot of problems with modern Linux design choices (see image description for details)
There's three unlabelled menus in the title bar; guess what options are in what menus! There's literally no other way to know
What part of the window do you click on to move the window? There's no visual cues to tell you that either
And there's no way to add a theme to fix the parts that make it difficult for use for people with bad eyes
this morning i was reminded of the HALL OF GENDER FORMS which i made eight years ago after getting mad at gender forms. thanks to michaelsoft it's still up eight years later
re: medical history, racism, cops
"The police felt like Freedom House had taken their jobs away, but Freedom House believed that the police — with their poor training — were a threat to the patient. Moon says that Freedom House would have a police scanner on to monitor the calls and would try to get to emergency situations before the police did to make sure care was given properly."
medical history
Basically the first real ambulance service in the United States, bunch of young black guys from the hill district in Pittsburgh who were treated as "unemployables" were the ones who are the reason there is a proper EMS service over there (and they influenced it internationally!) today.
At that time an ambulance was usually a cop or a coroner, these guys were some of the first to do actual medical interventions in the field.
I don't know what I was expecting, but have a list of the chief exports of some countries and you can raise your eyebrows a whole lot like I am
Germany: Cars
France: Planes, helicopters, and spacecraft
Italy: Packaged medicines
Spain: Cars
United Kingdom: Gold
Netherlands: Petroleum gas
Belgium: Vaccines
Switzerland: Gold
Austria: Cars
Sweden: Cars
So I was asking for some help with finding #CreativeCommons #graffiti art, and so far have not received help, but I decided to revisit an old project of mine where I actually created a blender Graffiti design and give it a refresh.
I know it is pretty rough, but hey, you can have it. I don't know how well protected @Blender s Suzanne is, but in terms of my original art, I consider this to be public domain, so CC-0

Something to keep a local copy of.

@joepie91 "capitalism is the most efficient system to allocate resources"
Yah, I bet it's efficient to just not allocate resources to the majority of people
Like, this one point basically defeats the *entirety* of the pro-capitalism talking points and rationales. "Efficiency", "beneficial self-interest", none of this crap works anymore the moment you realize that monopolies are the most efficient.
It defeats the ideological support structure for capitalism wholesale and leaves no viable remaining arguments. Zero.
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.
