OK, you’re gonna need some things:

A heat gun, A wire brush, Bandaids, A stiff drink

Huh, that’s not what I get:

New Game+: speedrun it

“internet parents” is wholly unsearchable without some kind of proximity syntax.

If anybody is looking for a side project, build something that allows you to use advanced search syntax to search the fediverse. Please?

Ah yes. Who hasn’t dropped a tab after a long day of work to unwind and rela…

Wayland […] will really mess up NVidea gaming

What? I use the proprietary drivers and Wayland just fine? What am I missing here?

re: Distros. Tuxedo is a strange one. I’m not saying it’s bad or anything, it just doesn’t normally feature in these discussions. I don’t know much about it, so I couldn’t say if it’s a good option or not, but I’m curious what drew you to it?

What? I respectfully disagree. The reason I struggled to stay on Pixelfed, and recently Loops too, is because as a new user all I was seeing was classical art, and landscapes (and the odd weirdo) but nothing actually entertaining. Loops at least has people copying stuff from TikTok. I’m not condoning that behaviour, I’m just saying as a casual new user, that was pretty much the most compelling content.

Maybe I was doing it wrong, but IMHO the content creators are the core of any social media. Pixelfed and Loops will both live or die by the creators they attract

ETA: I love weirdos by the way, that wasn’t meant as a negative. If anything, more please!

The best piece of I was given, that I seldom see repeated is this: learn how the filesystem is structured.

It makes everything else easier

I believe if you put an exclamation mark in front of that, it should create a direct link

The first time was like shitting the bed. It was an unpleasant mess for everyone involved, but potentially forgivable, assuming the mess was cleaned up.

The second time is smearing shit on the walls.

It’s all you can eat though, so there’s that

Is it just me, or is that ermine RIPPED?

The fediverse is too new and niche to say that with certainty.

The legality is likely untested and certainly not enforced by pubspec yet.

I don’t know enough to speak to the technicalities with certainty, but my surface level understanding is that that is exactly how it works, and it is one of the known flaws of the fediverse as it currently exists.

You might be making a statement, but server B is just a node and, frankly, doesn’t care. If you federate with them, you federate with everyone they federate with as well.

It’s uncomfortably like an STD in that regard.

No. Threads federation should be treated the same way as a wolf joining a “sheep’s right to not be eaten” meeting. Deeply unsettling, highly suspicious, and troubling. Facebook does NOT want the fediverse to succeed, and any claim to the contrary is fucking sus.
