and the longer story is that the problem I'm having (which is that the device behaves as if there's no battery at all) still happens: it just crashes completely when i unplug the USB cable. i conclude it is the power controller that is faulty, and i have 0 clue on how to fix that

Here's something cool about Mandarin Chinese pronouns.

For any trans people who need to hear this:

Your body is beautiful. You're worthy of being desired, if that's something you want.

Whether you choose to transition (and in whatever direction you want), and wherever you are in that process -- you're seen, you are believed, and I'm proud to be your sibling.

When you look in the mirror, you deserve to hear, "Hey, Beautiful." If you don't hear it in your voice, hear it in mine.

Your strength is incredible. You come from a long tradition of transgender people, stretching back to the earliest days of humanity.

Let the haters shout into the void. You don't need to. The Void already loves you. ✨​

(cis people please boost)

Back in my day we'd consider us lucky if we could afford one pronoun and now everyone has like three or four. These kids don't know how good they have it

Food, New Restaurant 

Due to some excellent decisions by Past Wally, we attended the soft open of Owamni, a new restaurant by Indigenous chefs that incorporates pre-european preparations of local ingredients into a fine dining context. They're bringing an experience the local dining scene lacks and the food is *delicious*, I think it's gonna be a big hit

Minneapolis mastodon!

The Cyberia Computer Club will have a booth at pride this Saturday and Sunday in Loring park! Come visit!! Booth , boosts welcome!

We will have a solar powered server, ascii art flyers, whatever project I bring (tarot reading generator?), and many cool friends! We are a local computer club/hacker collective and we figured it was time to do a little outreach. There's also a very exciting collage project that I'll post about later.~

We would LOVE to meet you! Yes you! Come by and say hi in person, and you're welcome to stop by our matrix, too.

i saw a really good programming joke one time like

"one of the hardest things to get used to when i got a job in the US (i'm from canada) was that boolean properties have the "is" prefix, e.g. object.isVisible. i'm used to the "eh" suffix, object.visibleEh"

After a really stress-filled day yesterday, I'm really looking forward to spending time with online friends in #CircusInPlace tonight.

Thank you all in advance for coming to visit the clowns as we practice throwing ourselves at the floor, acrobatically speaking.

See you starting at 8pm UTC-5:

@qdot if you haven't heard Dorian Electra, I highly recommend them. Very fun, totally worth going for the music video for some context.

I haven't heard of amnesia scanner before, would you recommend any particular album?

@qdot I think some of it morphed into neon retro wave (like The Rain Within?) But I'm not entirely sure. If you haven't seen it already, you might wanna check out hyperpop, too, though it's a little less industrial.

Watching my federated timeline and seeing weird domain names makes me happy

I mean, like, godforsaken.website? plush.city? magicalgirl.party? cybre.space? chaos.social?

This is the good internet
