Welcome to Fedi! Some quick notes!
hi birdsite folks welcome to fedi.
- mastodon.social isnt the "big place" or central server.
- nfts dont fly here period. full fucking stop.
- please cw nudes and stuff, theres kids here. also kids are people too, unless you have a good reason (like primarily posting lewds or nudes) try not to exclude.
- clout doesn't exist here, dont pick fights lest you find yourself ousted
- read people's bios before following
- at least tell us your pronouns
- you're not a refugee
- if you're homophobic, transphobic, or whatever you might as well just leave now, spare us your petty whining.
- enjoy yourself here
- hashtags are ok to use and encouraged like #caturday which is cat posting on Saturday usually
- mh means "mental health" and ph means "physical health"
- please be respectful and remember that we are all creatures here, human or not
- caption ur pictures (i have blind followers so i try not to boost pictures that aren't described either in post text or the cursor hover box)
other experienced fedi users can add on to this or correct things i got wrong
mutual aid request
i guess its my turn to ask for help:
im a white, trans-femme chiptune artist thats running low on funds and is seeking some help.
my monthly payments right now:
college tuition bullshit(basically debt from daring to try higher education): $50
phone bill: $30
i would appreciate greatly if anybody could help me in any way until i get a stable source of income (either from music or part time job or something).
Im trying to get beep borps and meep morps (chiptune music) out soon for debut but my janky computer is not helping with that much.
my kofi is linked in my fedi profile!
personal "scavengers code", longish
1. take only what you need, leave what you dont for others who do unless the material is in danger of being lost
2. if you do take extra material, share freely when possible, and especially for those who cannot easily go out and scavenge traditionally
3. computational power can be shared. friendship is power.
4. competition over the "best" materials: if disputes arise over a bit of material they should be settled peacefully if possible. propose your uses and see who would benefit more, or share the material between the both of you.
5. scavenge equipmemt may require a bit of love and care to become resiliant. be prepared to make repairs.
6. share the knowledge of repair with others if they show interest. keep the line of technicians going.
7. if gear is destroyed due to failed repair or other unseen catastrophe, not all is lost. make backups, and often. data is more fragile than hardware, and in many cases, more valueable
8. use power wisely, rechargable cells don't last forever.
9. handle rechargable cells with care. if a punctured cell is found, try to not carry it over great distance. clear an area to prevent any potential fire from spreading, or better yet, contain and prevent. id you see a burning cell, stay away from the fumes, they are dangerous to your health. try to contain the fire. sand is your friend, do not use water on lithium cells.
so a long time ago I was making a game inspired by Yume Nikki about my struggles with mental health and also my generally weird ass dreams.
well i'm gonna actually make that, instead of in gb maker i'm doing it in text because then I can just skip graphics (which I fuckin suck at) and focus on the writing (which i'm pretty good at i think after years of rp and some fanfiction writing among other things).
possibly fiction but tbh this could happen
the year is 2028 and I sit here on the train dedigitizing things from the latest data batch on a junker laptop, listening to old game soundtracks on a CD Walkman, on the train to the commune. no more running. I hug my plushie tightly, part of me refuses to believe that safety is within reach.
Heya Fedi! Need help with computer repairs or maintenence? Tips? Questions? I can help with both modern and older systems if need be but it'll have to be remote because of transportation issues. I can list my certifications if need be on request. I'm not currently charging for this but tips are appreciated!
