The topics discussed here are not unique to the alt-right in the so-called United States of America, but that sociopolitical environment is used as the basis for the majority of comparisons to modern politics.

Hey. Furries.
Watch this.
The integrity of our fandom depends on being able to identify this bullshit for what it is and *stop it.*
(If your first response to this is something along the lines of "there's nothing to learn" or "yes the valuable lesson is that JS is bad", then I am talking about you here, and I ask that you sit and think for a moment about *why* that was your response)
re: nonsense with more misinfo
@networkexception thumbs.db was created bij Microsoft after a ruling of the European Commission to increase competition
going through more old magazine scans - found this that I'd found a very beat-up brochure scan from the launch of the original TGV of so I spent a few hours cleaning it up in Photoshop so I could make it into a poster for myself. never did, of course, because that would require me living in one place for more than eight months, but someday maybe.

I want to make a PCB that could hold the following connector
could I put some surface mount metal pieces on top so the board can hold the connector in place? how do you call these parts? I tried looking on AliExpress, not found something that looks like what I want
I could not find the original specification of the plug, but according to my own measurement the pins have a diameter of around 4mm (measured with ruler, imprecise)
boost appreciated

ableism, the second rule of thumb we want everyone to learn
ableist insults are still ableist even if you're insulting yourself. including the intelligence-based ones.
it goes against both self-loathing and social modesty, yes, but you're just going to have to learn to accept your mistakes and idiosyncrasies and find new, healthier strategies to acknowledge your fallibility. we hate it, too.

don't use medical language as an insult
that's names of personality disorders, developmental disorders, widely-documented neurodivergences, classes of injury, none of it
go ahead and get rid of references to drugs, too, while you're at it
talk about what people do and are doing and keep doing, not about what medicalized group you assume is sufficiently inferior to 'normal' people to do what they do

hey did you know that since 2017, the PNG format officially supports embedding EXIF metadata?
did you know that even prior to that, because PNG is an extensible format by design, tools like ImageMagick could preserve EXIF metadata when converting to PNG by embedding it in a nonstandard chunk?
in the context of some of my recent posts, can you see where I'm going with this?

"De [Voetgangersvereniging] werd in 2000 opgeheven in verband met de fusie met twee andere verkeersveiligheidsorganisaties: Veilig Verkeer Nederland en Stichting Kinderen Voorrang. Ze werden hiertoe gedwongen door het Ministerie van Verkeer en Waterstaat, dat de organisaties subsidieerde. [...] Ondanks de intentie van de fusie verdween de bredere benadering, waaronder bijvoorbeeld de specifieke behartiging van voetgangersbelangen steeds meer uit zicht. [...] In 2012 vond een verdere reorganisatie en verdere koersverandering plaats waarbij de laatste medewerkers van de kleine fusiepartners werden ontslagen."

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.
