The plural urge to refer to your own system as "[hostname] et al".

Somebody studied A2-level psychology, and now it's EVERYBODY'S PROBLEM 🤣

(The last bit is referencing this, if you don't recognise it.)

Are there any Android distributions that work on cheap, easily-available smartphones, and that still try to do the best they can to protect the user's privacy and security, without being absolutist about it?

("Cheap" here means "$100 or under", to be clear)

#AskFedi: I'm looking for games with similarly satisfying building and management mechanics to Project Hospital and Airport CEO. :boost_requested:

Please only reply if you've actually played either of these games; this is not a genre question, it's about the *feel* of the games!

Anyone is welcome to boost, though - and it's much appreciated, these are obscure games and so it'll probably be difficult to find folks who have played them!

"CC signals" is so out of touch its embarrassing

POINT OF CLARITY EDIT: the CC licenses are the same as they always have been. The "signals" thing is an unrelated proposed alternative to robots.txt for scrapists to continue to ignore.

@luckytran Also normalize wearing a mask when YOU are sick. I first had this explained to me in Japan in the early 90s when I was traveling there on business frequently. This is such a sensible and prosocial practice.

@davidrevoy @creativecommons from the 4 proposed signals (credit, direct contribution, ecosystem contribution and open), none of them is about forbidding the usage of the assets to train AI😬

@StroomAfwaarts @joepie91 Doesn't have to be "a standing thing". For example, I have trapkast, which I guess is technically more like a small room. Even has the same kind of door as the other rooms in the house.

@joepie91 Or even kastje, the universal word for something that does something and is roughly box shaped - or not.

@joepie91 This seems to have worked with Unique Vintage a couple years back. They got tons of, "super disappointed to see you all supporting hate, I won't be shopping here anymore" public comments and then all the stuff was just gone from the site in a week or two.
