The latest proprietary #VSCode extension that no longer works in non-Microsoft builds of the MIT licensed VS Code source code appears to be C and C++ support.

Your regular reminder: every day more of VSCode functionality is proprietary, and increasingly #FOSS hostile.

PLEASE HELP ME ESCAPE!

Please #boost and share to other platforms.🙏I don’t have energy left (see below).

Seems I’m famous (and real!) and desperate enough to go to the media for help. Yes, the trapped woman in the articles below is me.

👉Last year:
https://www.thecanary.co/global/world-analysis/2024/05/03/me-cfs-anna-australia/

Now things are worse, I’m much sicker, being neglected and will die without a safe stable #home. Doctor’s words.

If not mentioned in the article, my father is a diagnosed #narcissist with #psychopathic & #antisocial tendencies by a #psychiatrist. He urged me get away from my father asap because he is not a ‘safe person’ & neither are the other family members who lured me back through the promise of help.They didn’t help they made me progressively worse to the point of almost incapacitation at stage of #illness.

👉A year later:
https://www.thecanary.co/global/world-analysis/2025/04/01/anna-severe-me-cfs/

I’ve tried every level of government, every service and they simply won’t help.

Are able help? Please ask people in real life if they have somewhere for me to go. Could they take me in (I can pay small rent)? A lot people have ‘big house, not enough money’ problem. I can help!

Is anybody an #advocate? I desperately need help.

I would be incredibly grateful for any help beyond words.🙏

Please read articles for full information.

Thank you for reading.

Y'all, I know we've learned the terms "white passing" and "colorism", etc. and there are appropriate times for us to bring them up. For instance, when discussing who is given opportunities and why: it's important to understand the realities, and it's important to communicate those to others.

But if you find yourself making determinations about who is "white passing" and what that should mean to people in Black communities, back the fuck up.

I suspect very few people appreciate how much patience and discipline it takes to rest.

To do nothing.
To allow yourself to be bored.
To let socializing wait.
To ignore your to-do list.
To tell yourself over and over again:
'I am not doing nothing I am resting. Resting IS a verb, and it is the thing I most need to do right now."

gardening sucks for so many reasons but I can certainly be swayed by low-effort gardening that results in plants that attract bees

There are some design choices made by Trenitalia for the interior that make little sense

Worst: luggage space. Most carriages have no rack for large bags at all! What were they thinking?

They don’t sell 2 seats per carriage as a temporary solution for this

Sorry if this makes me a lazy leech on society or whatever but I think we should chuck the Puritan work ethic, hustle culture, grindset mindset, all of that crap. I think people should have time for rest, leisure, self care, family, friends, and civic engagement. We should be letting people enjoy life, not expect them to spend every waking hour working for the sake of work because idle hands do the devil's work or whatever modern paint job you want to put on that 400 year old bullshit.

Well, at least the SC did *something* against the fascist arms manufacturer recruiting on the forums, but again with the both-sidesism and the seeming deathly afraid of doing anything that might be deemed 'unfair' by fascists.

It's almost as if this is an entirely predictable outcome when you try to emulate a nation state in your governance structure and refuse to settle on any actual value system!

#groteKleinLeedVerkiezing

Wat is het KLEINSTE kleine leed? Waarvan zeg je “doe dan dat maar”?

VOORRONDE 2

Er is veel groot leed in de wereld. Maar (gelukkig?) ook heel veel klein leed! De komende dagen ben ik op zoek naar het kleinste kleine leed. #annaWilGraagWeten

Als een van deze dingen je moet overkomen, welke moet het dan maar zijn? Wat is het minst erg?

#groteKleinLeedVerkiezing VOORRONDE 1

(Vereist enig inlevingsvermogen van mensen zonder baarmoeder, kurkentrekkers, een fysiek lichaam, of een combinatie van deze)

And here’s SNCF inviting harassment of passengers by telling them to display sensitive information

No, legally you DO NOT need to put a mobile number on your luggage!

How dare SNCF exceed what’s legally necessary in this publicity?

"open data" or "open information" has very little to do with milliseconds of UI latency or fractional uptime and much more to do with "what happens when it becomes profitable to weaponize my dependence on you as an information source"
