what up biorxiv, if you care about the survivability and accessibility of your data... this bucket is 7TB. you could buy one (1) flash drive and one(1) raspberry pi, run qbittorrent, distribute this as torrents, and make this data available for $0.00 to you and to everyone.

It's actually kind of bizarre how a second-hand cargo bike is more expensive than some second-hand cars

I found the serverless infrastructure everybody keeps talking about. Magical.

hey anyone have recommendations for programming socks that don't break easily? I've been using mysocks but they're so thin they break within a few months of use.

#gaming reminder: People can enjoy different levels and kinds of challenge. If you want to, it's ok to get a mod or something to alter the difficulty if you find it frustrating or otherwise unpleasant.
Or increase the difficulty, if that's what you want.

Hooray for International Womens Day etc, but really, it's an utter embarrassment to society that it's still necessary in 2025.

We need a Gaia-like parent to tell the tech bros that they're not allowed to play with their shiny scifi toys until the basic homework of human equality is sorted out.

very nice, a 88x31 for Forgejo

fediverse, does anyone of you know a good website with vegan recipes?

So in a series of events that I'm too tired to go into, the still-President of #Korea was released from detention on a technicality that stinks of collusion. The shocking development sent the country's relative calm plunging and my and many others' anxiety is spiking in the face of the misinformation, cover-up & violence he'll whip up while at large. His criminal trial proceeds apace and his dismissal proceeding at the Constitutional Court has already concluded arguments and is in deliberation, with the decision hopefully upcoming this week. It can't come soon enough ugh. 60% of the country is hoping the Court will do the right thing and fire him, and if it somehow fails to do so the fight is just going to get that much harder, but it won't end.

At least going to a protest today helped with the terror I was feeling. The news of his release actually came during the protest, but it was easier to bear with a huge crowd of people who felt the same way. The size of the crowd there was unbelievable, like filling the entire road of downtown Seoul for blocks and blocks and the air thick with waving flags, and it lifted my spirits a lot. No matter what happens from here, I know I won't be alone in my determination & resistance.

Don't you just love heartwarming stories like this one that restore your faith in humanity

White people should be showing up to marches and protests masked up en masse so we could actually see how far mask bans go and cops’ reactions to masks/respirators in large numbers. But no, white people are too cowardly and would rather perpetuate ableism and comply with the shitty policies of the very people they ostensibly claim to be protesting/marching against. Because it’s not the policies they abhor, it’s the current poster boy.

Maskless white people at marches and protests surprised to discover the foot in boot on their neck is their own
