Dat standaard "dames en heren, hier spreekt de politie", he, wanneer een protest uit elkaar getrokken wordt... betekent dat dan dat je je als enby niet aangesproken hoeft te voelen? 🤔

Rust compiler flags? Oh! You mean like 🏳️‍⚧️?

Ghost kitchens really are just capitalism'd soup kitchens full of deception, aren't they

Should I be horny on main (with appropriate CWs)? Why / why not?

Psa: don't just boost the first post of a good thread. The entire thread won't federate on its own!

Include at least the first and the last.

why can't we have stories about ordinary people surviving and trying to rebuild society into a better form where they can help each other and be peaceful now that the oppressive capitalism is gone

trying to find something good even after the world went to fucking shit

i hate a lot of zombie movies because they are essentially copaganda/military propaganda disguised under the sauce of post apocalyptic aesthetics

re: NL politics, but in English 

Information is still trickling in, but at least this time it seems there's *less* of a gap between enforcement against climate protesters vs. fascist farmers.

Oh look, one of the arrests was for, loosely translated, "offending a cop". Yes, that is a thing here.

"Rijkswaterstaat heeft op verzoek van de gemeente Den Haag een deel van de Utrechtsebaan van de A12 vanmorgen besproeid met een hete zoutvloeistof. Die voorkomt dat actievoerders zich kunnen vastlijmen aan het asfalt en zorgt ervoor dat het wegdek niet beschadigd raakt."

Volgens mij lokt de #politie en gemeente #denhaag alleen maar escalatie uit.

TIL that there's something called "Silicon Valley Bank" at the same moment that I learned that every assumption I would have made about something called that would have turned out to have been correct.

Nobody:

Every hotel: *renovates their bathrooms to put in shiny chrome-plated showers more complex than a petroleum processing plant that nevertheless flood water all over the floor*

Nu crises zich opstapelen, dreigen jongeren het vertrouwen in het Nederlandse overlegmodel te verliezen. Waar dit bij sommigen tot cynisme en apathie leidt, roept het bij anderen vooral strijdlust op. Zo zijn het ook vandaag vooral jongeren die met Extinction Rebellion de A12 in Den Haag bezetten. ‘Er verandert pas wat als er buiten de instituties om druk wordt gezet.’

NL politics, but in English 

In case you missed it: the government has sent military police to intimidate climate protesters, as well as a water cannon, and seems to have started arresting people again

meta, grumbly 

It's "funny" how in some people's eyes, known bad actors always deserve more benefit of the doubt than the people who block them - "we should wait until it's proven that they're evil"

naming question, software dev 

For an API that lets you define the structure of a database, which of these naming schemes is better? It should be clear and *feel* nice and unintimidating to work with.

How come there isn't any game using ActivityPub?

I should probably search for that before asking 👀

Comment on FDIC takeover of SVB 

The culture that prides itself on moving fast and breaking things and insisting the government is too slow is now experiencing a government agency that is famous for moving fast and breaking things.

Oddly they seem displeased.
