low-drama... or normal drama? people who are prone to histrionics can be
exhausting, and it's often exhausting for them as well. Drama and excitement is
what gets them through the day, while most people are driven by something more
inertial or instinctual or goal-focused.
you don't have to be on all the time. if you're tired, then rest! if you're
hungry, then eat! if you're thirsty, then drink! if you're lonely, then speak,
if you're sad, then cry, if you see some friends at a party, then dance like
tomorrow you might die. That's how I like to be, and I think it's a decent way
to be.
it can be prone to dramatics though... YMMV

Why are you buying bumper stickers and flair? You could be spending that on 3d
printers!
Unrelated, but companies are wasting their time at pride. Wanna know how you
can help? Pick 15 attendees and pay for their entire Amazon wishlists. Then,
have a competition with all the other companies for fame and prestige of who
bought the best gifts (that are explicitely asked for and randomly assigned)
while they work to secure the rest of the things they need. The things that
can't be bought, the things which utilize gifts from Amazon shopping lists, the
organizations and groups of people working toward a common goal. The common
goal that queer people share, the liberation of all of mankind. Corporations
could actually help them work toward that by tangibly improving their material
conditions. Like by buying everything on their Amazon wishlists. (that's just
an example, doesn't have to be amazon, but that kind of vibe. Giving them
everything they have previously had need of, but couldn't access. The idea
being that they would then implement those newfound capabilities, through their
own usage or in the guided manipulations of another's will. Like a teacher to a
child, bringing forth understandings the child may use in their future lives,
people may be given new capabilities and taught how to use tools that the
teacher might have placed on their Amazon shopping list, and were subsequently
provided by a corporation sponsoring a small segment of pride, but did not
possess the time to use. They may possess the functionality (skills and muscle
memory and such) yo utilize those new tools, but without the time to do so they
cannot. So, they might teach another, who then might provide the same impulse
that the sponsored person (with the fulfilled Amazon wishlist) was initially
guided. (by). Like, if bought a 3D printer, I might spend a hundred hours
learning how to do it, I might spend 50 if I was taught one-on-one. But someone
who already knows how to use it could use it (have it instead) and fulfill the
need that I had which initially encouraged me to reach for a 3D printer I
neither possessed not owned nor could operate. The need remains, and may be
fulfilled by the person who was given the 3D printer who can use the 3D printer
by the person who was fulfilled it from their Amazon wishlist by the
corporation who believed in the same common goal as the queer liberation of
humanity and eternity.

Many autistic people will identify one particular way to do things and then be
only capable of doing it that way. Like, falling asleep on the left side with
their legs just so, and never learning any other ways to sleep on. But what
happens if for example they are wounded in the arm they rest upon? They would
have impaired sleeping capabilities! Not ideal.

An image means nothing, for it is just an icon.
like a picture of a floppy disk corresponding to writing memory from RAM into a
hard disk platter, even tho those have three different tasks, so too does my
icon gesture at something.
On the other hand, art is necessarily divorced from it's meaning the moment it
leaves the pen and is written to paper. So there cannot be a meaning in my
flag, not one that I define of course.
The observers of the artwork, of whom I am but one of, can possess their own
ideas of what it means, of course. Here's mine, feel free to take your own:
Sea, land, sky. The crimson of a fading light, and the bright beginnings of a
new day. Man(kind), with our vivid red internals, stands astride the border of
the ocean and the surface. We walk where we will, perhaps into the black depths
of the cosmos beyond, but forever do we anchor ourselves and owe allegiance to
our earth and our star. Sunlight casts crimson light upon our externals, as our
hearts do beat through time.

If I follow correctly, the reason it's not is because you're dividing zero by

@user-246
so... if infinity is the inverse of zero, then when inverted would infinity
also be zero?
if so, it follows that the [spectrum/dimension/cardinality/direction] that the
inversion is occurring upon might also have other steps inbetween. Unless it's
a binary thing, like "top and bottom" or "present and absent".
I wonder what those steps might look like? Clearly, since infinity minus
infinity does not equal zero, the steps inbetween (if they exist) would not be
numbers. If they were, then one single step from inverting infinity would be 1,
but I don't believe that would be true.
On the topic of rings, the axioms would be things like "a ring is a ring if you
can trace a continuous line with a length of infinity across it's
ring-like-surface"? I wonder what the inverse of a length is... Or perhaps you
cannot invert a length, as to do so would give you a length of zero (in this
particular ring-like-case)

normalize in your mind the fact that it is impossible to tell if a picture is
fake or not.
Maybe it's not true, maybe you can still tell, but you might get tricked.
-- al so --
everything they accuse us of doing is something they perfected themselves. "why
would my enemy do it if we didn't do it first?"
But I want to caution you and state very clearly that the things they accuse us
of are NOT the only things they do. They are clandestine. They only speak
publicly of the things that we have noticed. They are much better than we are
at keeping their damn mouths shut and only talking about their operations
behind closed doors.
meanwhile, for us it's like "check out these T-shirts I made isn't my sign neat

I think it'd be neat to have two tiers of follow lists - like, "close follow"
and "far follow" - the close one would have a cap of like, 70 people or so and
be primarily used for coordination or close friendships, while the far one
would be more like "I like this person and I want to see them on my main feed
because they make funny memes"
then they could be sorted into different sections, sorta like how you can have
"local timeline" and "federated timeline" and "home" and "instance timeline"
etc etc
sooooo weird how the "local" timeline doesn't show me people who live near me
in relative proportion to their distance from me. That'd be neat too, to have
the ability to talk about regional things in a specific place on a website
without losing the benefits from using a cohesive platform.

bad people are cursed with evil.
a person cannot be evil. they can deal with such evil in their lives that
twists them, and causes them to spike out and harm others, but they are not
evil themselves.
some twists are too hard to mend. some healings leave people a shadow of what
they once were, or might have been. but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try.
deprive power, supply kindness, in that order.
if you cannot deprive power, then reduce harm.
if you cannot reduce harm, then contest, defeat, or overcome.
A twisted person may be slain if death is on the line. You get what you wish
for, but you don't always get to choose who. Don't let them choose. They will
choose poorly.
... I find that death is very rarely on the table, though. Generally they'll
make their intentions apparent.

also, a wide net catches many fish but the fish we're catching are the size of

plus, what are our efforts going to do besides build organizational capability,
solidarity, and collective power that we might use to larger and more urgent
ends? they will not change their behavior based on our demands, they have shown
they will not, and they do not care. But that means our efforts are all the

I know it's not like that but I'm intentionally framing it that way to make a
point about societal exclusion.
nobody should be excluded.
nobody should have to harm their friends to come by making them sacrifice their
[time/labor/paycheck] in order to bring them along.
we live in a post scarcity society that insists on commodification of everything
we don't have to. A better world is within reach. It sits there, twinkling like
asbestos resting at the base of a snowglobe, while we search and ponder and
endlessly analyze how society sucks.
there is nothing left to analyze. all that we need is to put our hands to a
task and our feet to grass.
the rest will come, and it'll come easier with time and focused attention.

a screenshot of the Goron's Ruby from Ocarina of Time.
A smooth, flat stone comprised of two materials. The hardened outer shell is
thick with spiritual energy, and it radiates light the way a rippled piece of
silk folded over a malleable piece of gold.
the inner jewel is crystallized like the purest ice, but a bright shade of
crimson white. it seems to radiate an aura of affection and the yellow-gold
back-piece can be seen peaking through it's mostly transparent core. (think
like fog or thick mist or steam or smoke).

yeah, I mean, I agree, but try convincing them of that.
I believe that there must be no non-consentual application of power, in the
general sense.
I also believe that one person's rights end where another's begin.
Because of those two axioms, it is impossible to contest people who consent to
being enslaved. Who am I to take their chains from them, if they grip them to
their chests so dearly?
But I will not tolerate them clasping new ones around the necks of our future
children. I will not allow them to desecrate our home. They are welcome to join
us, when "us" finally gets our shit together. But they can hold no dominion
over us, nor anyone else - that is the crucial core of my belief.

my grandpa died. now I have none.
I realized I miss old people. I miss their friendly culture.
I realized I hadn't talked to him for a decade or so. He didn't know I
transitioned.
I wonder if he missed me. I realized he missed seeing who I became. Is it
unfair of me to not give him the opportunity to know me? truly?
... I am quite different now than I was 10 years ago. He probably doesn't
remember.
I miss him, but I hardly knew him. I don't like that feeling.

my family has always been the black sheep of our families.
I've never lived in the same state as my extended family
(with a few minor exceptions)
I was raised to know that family is an earned status, and my mom took us on
road trips every year to visit them, to give us kids the chance to earn that
affection.
and for them to earn it from us.
I guess it wasn't enough. I wonder if they think of me.

low key kinda pissed that all my ideas for starting a business require funding,
because funding tends to be controlled by the "business major" types, and all

means they're unlikely to invest in me or utilize my ideas.
unless of course it's crowd-funded, which makes me feel bad because it's taking
money from the people I'm trying to empower.
thus, power accretes in the hands of the wealthy, as the poor are too sick with
capital-deficiency to develop ventures that would heal them, and the rich would
not be rich if they did so themselves.

that was hundreds of years ago, though. Plenty of time for it since to twist

my understanding of the police force in america is that it's like, 15% racist
misogynistic assholes who pull people over for stupid reasons and try to start
shit, and 75% people who just want to do a good job and support their community.
problem is, if their community is racist assholes then they tend to align as
such.
the remaining 10% are idealists who have the power to sway their comrades in a
way that the 15% racist assholes don't. I speak to them.

the fascist's plan requires them to lose. Their whole business model is to dupe
a succession of rubes and get rich in the process. Trump being elected the
first time was a surprise, which is why they couldn't manage to get much done.
The infrastructure needed to legitimize fascism was resisted at every turn by
the lawyers and government workers who were in place.
however, due to a recent supreme court ruling, they no longer need to worry
about people resisting their rule through the powers granted to them by their
stations. All they have to do is ask if they're loyal, and if not, they can be
replaced.
In 2016 they just wanted to get rich. Recently they had a shot, thank god that
Biden is a savvy politician and knew how to tank their attention and focus
their attacks on weaknesses that Kamala did not possess, like his age and
mental lucidity.
They are going to lose, they know it, and they're going to be pissed, so... be
ready for that.
on the bright side, they will lose each time

On Reddit, you talk about ideas to faceless users whose names are almost
entirely irrelevant.
on Twitter and Mastodon, you speak to people and "sound your barbaric yawp"
into the void.
on forums, you have a continual conversation that ebbs and flows and
occasionally returns to the main point, but often will spiral out to random
places that the responders decided were worth exploring.
instagram and facebook and the like are designed to share your real life - your
experiences and your masks.
tumblr and cohost are designed to blog about topics and interests, abstracting
the "communal" aspect away and essentializing connections to the tenuous ties
between people who enjoy similar pieces of pop media.
reddit's style encourages discussion.
twitter's style encourages expression.
forums encourage conversation.
instagram encourages perfection.
tumblr encourages culture.
I'm from Reddit, so please feel free to tell me how and why I'm wrong.
Here on Mastodon if more than 10 people reply, it'll be impossible.

I think forums would be great if you could collapse replies to particular
comments, sorta like how you can on Reddit.
I think this would encourage discussion and conversation the same way that
forums do, while making it easier to get up to speed on topics.
Far too often I've looked at a forum and thought "oh hey I'd love to reply to
this 40 page long thread, but I don't want to read 40 pages because I want to
speak rather than read"
... I don't think that's unreasonable, which I guess is why I gravitated toward
Reddit where people are encouraged to speak... downside is, repeated
conversations, like you said. There's no perfect solution for everyone =P

you know how SSH password login is deprecated because the password needs to be
transmitted in cleartext or whatever?
what if we just... required two passwords?
the first initiates the conversation, and sets up an encrypted line. It doesn't
matter if anyone sees the first password because they'll get a new set of
encrypted keys, meaning each session automatically is encrypted in a different,
randomized way.
the second password is the one that actually authenticates you.

alternatively, when you initiate an SSH session it sends you a randomized
public key whose private key is the password that you need to login. By
decrypting the string of text it sent you and sending it back (plus the
password at the end or whatever) you can ensure secure authentication without
bothering with the passwordless keys which are wayyyyyy more trouble than
they're worth and lack the "something you know" authentication method.

it might be, I don't know much about it (hence why I'm asking questions) but I
have heard that ssh keys are more secure than password authentication and it
never made sense to me. If availability is important for security purposes,
then wouldn't SSH keys (which are much more difficult to carry around than a
password) be less suitable?

if you give everyone science-fiction tech, they're going to just make a bunch
of guns and nuclear weapons and destroy each other.
worse, they might grow to fill their cosmic shoes and destroy others nearby who
didn't make weapons.
it takes a while for the Federation to get anywhere. Plus they're stretched
pretty thin. If they gave everyone the same technology as they had, they'd
quickly find themselves in the company of despots and warlords who were
empowered to subjugate and control. Not ideal.
Personally I think they should announce their arrival and offer citizenship to
anyone who asked to be uplifted, while barring them from ever returning home
and breaking the prime directive. I think that would be a decent middle
ground...

"Alright I'm not great with syntax so I'm going to write it in pseudocode

But first - do you want a robust solution, a quick solution, or a rapidly
deployed and cheap solution?"
using this trick you can pretend to be competent in any programming language,
except maybe ancient ones like Fortran or strange ones like lisps or Haskell
if they ask you to use a framework or something tho you're kinda boned because
you need to know which functions to call and how to initialize context and
such. When using a framework, the boilerplate is the code, which is why
frameworks suck

Marked complicity in sacred syncronicity, sing me your songs untold
Adamant penitence of saccarine similance, wanters of futures unknown.

a man walks into a library, picks a book, takes it home (legally), and begins
to read.
halfway through, he realizes there are three pages missing.
"How queer!" he thinks to himself, and takes it upon himself to fix this book.
So, he finds another copy of the book, scans those three pages, prints them out
at just the right size, and attaches them to the library book.
when finished reading the book, he returns it to the library without mentioning
his good deed.
if this action he performed is to be considered legal, then it should be
considered a transition of the medium that the media was inscribed upon.
Similarly, if the book was digital, and inscribed upon the owner's hard drive
using magnetic storage of zeroes and ones, would it be legal to repair said
book if one of the many .txt file chapters were missing?

... I do believe it should be, and if it is, then I do believe it should be
legal to transfer digital media, as the inscription upon one hard drive or the
other is as easily changed as a book might be handed to another.
the difference, of course, is that any move on a digital medium requires a
copy+delete operation. You cannot move a file on your computer, you first copy
it to the new location and then delete the original. This dual-operation is
abstracted away for the user, but that is how it must be done on a mechanical
level. There is no other way to do it.
Therefore, software piracy only applies if a person copies their file and does
not delete the original. Surely, to move a piece of digital media from one
folder-directory to another is legal? If so, then the mechanical process of
giving that media to another must be legal as well, so long as the original is
deleted.

Much the same way that it is legal to create trash in a public park, but
illegal to leave it behind, so too should it be legal to move digital media
files from one owner to another, and illegal to not delete the original.
The dual operation of copy+delete must be legalized, while maintaining that the
copy operation alone is illegal, aside from personal backups.
How could you enforce that? Well... You can't. Your computer will do whatever
you tell it to, and if you change that fact then you necessarily remove one of
the primary use-cases of computation - the ability to command specific
instructions and be delivered a perfectly mechanical and deterministic result.
(random number generation aside, which isn't truly random at all).
Therefore, just as littering in a public place is generally considered to be
enforced by the "honor rule", so too must this new legislation governing the
transference of digital media be enforced as such.

If I, having watched a DVD, handed it to a friend to watch, would I be
committing piracy? Only if I sold it to him.
The material being transferred is that of the copyright holder - they hold the
sole and monopolized right to sell their copy of the work.
But if I, having created my own recording of the same digital media DVD but
spoken in my own voice, tried to sell it, should it be considered legal?
My mind goes to the production of after-school plays that high-school children
will perform. The scripts that they use are licensed for a single purpose - the
performance of a single play, performed a single time (or a few times over the
course of a couple weeks). The owner of the play cannot require them to not
perform the play more than a certain amount of time, it is however honorable to
buy the scripts again if they want to perform it in 5 years time. I know for a
fact there is rampant piracy that goes on for the beautiful works that are
created by assholes or stingy companies. A script is just words.

Similarly, if someone wants to "perform" a piece of digital media, via a "let's
play" or perhaps a ROM hack or public screening, the copyright holder cannot be
allowed to prevent them from doing so. They must only be able to demand a
reasonable and non-exclusive fee in return for the privilege of performance.
These performances are considered derivative works, but they are still works on
their own, and therefore should be able to be sold.
The greater the difference between the original and the newly created work, the
less the price must reflect the necessary "tax" levied by the original owner,
until eventually the work is so distinct that it cannot be considered to be
deriving from the original at all.
Consider a mod for a video game that replaces the dragons you typically fight
with giant cartoonish train engines. A silly sight to be sure, but people do
that. What percentage of the game is replaced? what percentage tax of the new
mod's price must be given to the original copyright holder?

... the trick is, depending on how many train-engine-dragons you fight, there
will be a greater or lesser proportion present in a particular playthrough.
Perhaps, potentially, people should pay for the original work, and then a small
sliver for the addition or modification? Why, I do believe that's how it works
now! Except, on the honor system, as people can download the mods for free and
pay (or not) through the creator's patreon page or whatever that they
definitely set up and which definitely shouldn't be able to levy a tax based on
"transaction fees" for a process which definitely should be handled by the
government, which claims to regulate our economy and provide the means by which
we engage with said economy through their de-facto nationalization of the banks
and other economic entities.
where was I going with this? oh yes software piracy is ethical so long as you
delete the original. Let's end with that because that's what I originally had a
dream about and wanted to write about.

I think I understand exactly what you're saying. I empathize a lot. I'm afraid
of responsibility, sure, but who isn't? However, the responsibility has to be
held by someone, and who better than the one making the decisions...
I don't want to make decisions because it feels good. Honestly it feels kinda
bad.

It seems to me that the people that become the most vicious, the most furious,
the most indignant are not those who have been oppressed for a long time but
those who privilege from that oppression who feel that their privilege is
threatened.

shallow conversations are hardly effective, I find. Unless they're logistical,
and then they're just passing information - they're hardly conversational.
To me, a conversation is a back-and-forth. It needs to have change, people need
to consider, to argue their ideas, to wander through thoughts, to share
emotions, and / or to resolve conflict, whether internal or external. It can
have some of those, all of those, or none of those, but that's what comes to my
mind.
So a shallow conversation wouldn't really count as "effective" for the purposes
of the original toot : )
... hehe toot

review of one of my favorite books, The Deed of Paksenarrion.
"Elizabeth Moon's trilogy feels like it comes from an alternate history or an
extinct branch of the evolution of fantasy. It has a bit of a cult following,
from what I can tell it has been more or less continuously in print since its
release in 1988, but it -- and its author -- have mostly faded into midlist
obscurity. It offers a ton of things that are uncommon in fantasy nowadays, so
people looking for something a bit different might check it out."

if you're just learning how to cook, I highly recommend "Ms. Dash" and "Better
than Boullion" - focus on getting the ingredients and mechanics right, and then
work on seasoning them.
Level 2 is paprika, garlic powder, onion flakes, lime juice, and red pepper
flakes for spice.
level 3 is learning the difference between basil, oregano, parsley, and other
herbs.
be careful with salt and pepper. They can do a lot, but they can also easily do
too much. better to salt to taste.
also, MSG is wonderful for savory dishes. Your body breaks it down into sodium
in your stomach acid so imagine you're adding salt when considering MSG for
healthy proportions.

Nazis could never claim America because the European Jews were very
isolationist. They lived in their towns and lived blessed lives but knew only
each other, as was typical in pre-industrial times.
In America, nazis would have to fight the queers, the blacks, the mexicans, the
liberals, and many more besides. Each of them would fight their own battles but
god is on the side of the plurality of humanity, not the genociders who seek to
prune the trees of the garden of Earth to suit their own shallow fancies.
Though god is a bloodthirsty kind at times, only with righteous anger does he
proclaim that souls must be reaped. Such a time is rare, and comes about when,
for example, an entire people is slain in Europe in the mid 1900s. justice will
be done, though the heavens weep...
There are better and brighter days before us, and there is room for all, should
they not fall on our swords and perish. The far right is a death cult, and they
intend to take all down with it. We cannot allow that, they shall not prevail.
This has been forseen, this is why we convene, and together our perils will
unveil.

the fact that Tolkien is considered "low fantasy" in this day and age is only
because we've conflated "prevalence of magic" with "thematic purpose" - high
fantasy is meant to speak to the human nature and spirit, while low fantasy is

well, if your partner doesn't want to change their mind, they won't. And if
someone's mind is being changed, or if someone is attempting to change someone
else's mind, then there must always be a changer and a changee. So it's okay to
be the changee sometimes! In fact, that's my default state. I only change
someone else's mind if they're wrong and hurting others. But that's rare.

republicans vote based on culture, which is unfair to the rest of us with our

they can go down the street and eat vietnamese food, and yet they vote for
their own culture in isolation.
voting for those who represent you is fine, but those who represent them have
non-cultural agendas as well. their plans are designed to hurt others, an act
which grants them power over others. usually financial power, but there are
many kinds of power, and all of them are unethical when applied
non-consentually.
and if you vote for a democrat, you do not consent to them.

liberalism is capitalism with a dash of globalism. they are of the right, and
it is important to have a right-wing party because a one-winged bird cannot fly.
there are legitimate benefits to their philosophies, and they may be applied to
all kinds of systems, even those that do not utilize currency at all.
however, in modern america, there is another party, a party farther to the
right, a party which is voted into power based on culture, something
unassailable and inalienable and yet always perpetually under threat. or so
they make it seem.
this "farther-to-the-right" party is duplicitous in it's ideals. their persona
is that of businessmen, familymen, and journeymen. they claim to be farmers,
pastors, and step-fathers.
but they are something more, something behind their mask, that those who vote
for them cannot see.
for they were all of them, deceived...
another plan was made. a project, if you will, to be implemented posthaste, in
merely a single-year's time.
it's cruelty indeed.

I have this notion about a math/CS curriculum where students build and program
their own calculators. Once you make the calculator do it you never need to do
it yourself again.
for the same reason that "writing is thinking" is true, so too is "programming
is calculation" true.
by working through the steps required to produce a result, and fully
understanding each step, they have a much more solid understanding of what's
going on than if they practiced rote memorization (worse) or continual
computation (better, not best tho)
especially if every step of the way is accompanied with visual elements which
show exactly what is happening. Some people are more visual, some people are
more algorithmic, and finding a way to teach all types of people is a truly
difficult and rewarding part of teaching.

just to note this type of link is not the only way they could implement

a more insidious way that we need to be aware of would be to generate a unique
URL for every person that visits a link. LIke, for me it might be
"youtu.be/abcdefg" but for you it'd be "youtu.be/hijklmnop" and there'd be very

I mean, if you consider the past as despotic in nature, then it makes a bit
more sense that we'd lean left as time progressed. All things are defined in
waves, after all, at least until they reach escape velocity.
the goat is talking about math, ritz
oh yes of course. the issue is that if you're coming from a math background you
start with the calculation and store it in a variable as an afterthought. but
programming is more algorithmic than computational, meaning things only reduce
at runtime (hidden from the user of course by the compiler)
an algorithmic perspective is "here's a box. Put this value in the box. Use the
box later." while a calculating perspective is "here's some complicated,
difficult equation. Let's wrap it up with a single name so that we can easily
use it later."

I think they should be viewed in whatever resolution they were recorded in,
otherwise they look fuzzy as the pixels need to smush themselves together to be
correctly represented on screen.
videos should be recorded in whatever resolution your monitor supports, and
ideally as high as possible. Unless storage space is a concern, in which case
1080p is more than sufficient.
Storage gets cheaper and cheaper every year, but people across the world upload
like, 200 years of videos to Youtube every day or whatever (made up that number
but it's absurd) so maybe curated collections of videos are more important than
scraped archives?

gotta start somewhere! and where better to start than here? someplace people
are familiar with, because "here", while not shared equally or equidistantly,
is still common enough knowledge that people can feel comfortable with some
slight, yet incredibly impactful, alterations.
... though "comfort" in the short-term isn't always the most important thing. I
do believe it can be useful sometimes. How are you going to get people to
consent to something if they don't think it helps them, and how can you show
them that it helps them if it makes them uncomfortable?

I love the concept of this! Maybe if HTTP is too complex, you could try another
simpler server? I don't know the complexity of the programs I use every day,
but I'm sure there's one that's very simple. Even just a simple IRC style chat
server that just... sends text from person A to person B depending on their
username (like a glorified Router or Switch)

that's totally fine, a fish does not do well in a tree, and so too does a
leftist not do well in an environment without the potential for stable bonds.
Essentially all you'd be able to do is "hey leftism right?" "oh yes I also
leftism" "neat" which isn't very productive.
I also live in an environment like that. I do my best to identify people who
stay, because in my experience there are often people who stay. I do this by
walking around the neighborhood when I can, making up excuses to walk to the
dumpster or mailbox at random hours, riding my bike around the area, using the
communal spaces like gyms, swimming pools, and picnic tables, and sitting in my
hammock on my porch lazily noting people who walk past.
People who stay will tend to remain in your mind the more times you see them.
They are better people to talk to than the renters who disappear after 3 months
or whatever.
I don't always do all that stuff at once. I take breaks. I do one at a time. etc

also "your neighbors" could mean people in your general area. It doesn't have
to be explicitly people who live in your building or the one nextdoor.
Networking professionally can also be a decent substitute. Visiting churches or
D&D groups or hiking groups or whatever can also work.

If you want to install something on Linux but you have difficulty, talk to me
and I'll write you a script like this. I might even make it fancier.
This one installs a programming language that is useful for parallel computing
across multiple clusters of computers which could be useful if you want to
leverage multiple CPUs and GPUs with ease to compute tasks which are far beyond
a normal computer.

If you want to clean your room, try pushing everything loose into a pile in the
center. Then, sit down next to it and sort things into piles.
"here's a pen pile, here's a paper pile, here's a rubber band pile, here's a
trash pile" etc etc. Then, when you can't reach anything more or the piles are
too large, find a spot for them in the bookcase or drawer or wherever.
If you can't, then reorganize. If you still can't, then pick things to get rid
of.

But GPUs are legitimately cool, aside from Bash's purported funkiness /

nachos
cast-iron skillet (or other deep pan)
throw in some butter or vegetable oil (not olive oil)
heat it up a bit
crack four eggs in there
cut some slices off of a hunk of cheese
add some chips on top of the eggs
add the cheese on top of the eggs
cover it and leave it on the like, 2 or 3 out of 10 heat setting
come back whenever it's done
transfer to plate
add salsa
boom nachos
(optional but recommended: beans):
for the beans, if you want, throw a can of refried beans on the stove and add a
TINY can of tomato chunks and a big hunk of butter
let it cook until it's smooth consistency, stirring and such. Add paprika,
cumin, and a bit of oregano.
then put the beans on before the salsa, and BOOM even BETTER nachos.

"When you are logged onto a system as a non-root user you cannot create a

make sure you clean grease and such from appliances too! Like, sometimes
previous renters will spill something down the side of the oven and you won't
notice because it's right up against the wall / cabinet / fridge...
if you can, pull them out a bit and check to see if there's anything you can
clean. Cockroaches will eat grease and can live off of it for a long time.

if you want to solve EVERY housing issue in the United States, at least in the
short and mid-term, add a ramping tax penalty for unoccupied houses that
doesn't reset to 0 upon being occupied but rather starts ticking down at the
same rate that it increases.
Something like 0.5% to 1% of the property value for every month it's gone
unoccupied as a primary residence.

you can't start a game of chess with a checkmate. you're not wrong on the goal,
but the timing would only be possible if a significant amount of other unnamed
"effects" were in play. Or rather, if a whole lot of other conditions were made
to be true.
I find the best strategies are the ones that rely the least on externalities
and potentialities. Fewer points of failure, smaller attack surfaces.

I had a dream about "what if people listened to me" and it was a melancholy
kind of sad, the kind that comes after a great tribulation as one picks up the
pieces.
Food is so important, people grow tired of the same thing every day. They say
an army marches on its stomach, and our stomachs these days are accustomed to
variety, taste, and plenty.
It would get better, give it time, and in time our wounds would heal. But
wouldn't you rather persist in this timeline, the one that isn't doomed, and
instead flourish in the ways inertia brings us? Capitalism must fall, of
course, but it will fall of its own accord after we've done our best to
maintain the world we live in.
"better to be starting from scratch, than lose your path"
... Yeah, okay, true, but just like justice is its own reward, so too is
hardship it's own burden.
you can't eat justice
No, but at least you aren't enslaving anyone.
they would be slaves still, without your patronage
Liberation for all comes later, I guess. First up is building a safe and stable
home for us.
safe and stable... Like the one you have now? Like the kind the Democrats
promise?
Yes, but ideological purity calls me to believe that slavery should not be
accepted. It should not be something we condone. And yet they do, albeit
indirectly, and so I am perplexed.
if you want good food, live in the country. Hence why all the suburbs are
empty.
... Anyway, 3am musings, gonna program a bit and go to sleep again...

A wherewolf and a human stumble into a bedroom in the dark of night, their arms
clutching each other as they make out in front of the window.
Just then, the moonlight appears, and the wherewolf's form begins to shift, as
strangled cries turn into a cacophanous mess.
The moment passes, and the wherewolf collapses onto the bed, exhausted.
He rests there on his back for precious moments, before throwing himself to his
feet and putting on his socks and sandals.
Ha glances in the mirror.
He straightens his tie.
He goes to fucking work, again, just as the laundry dings.
When he gets back, it smells musty, so he washes it again with bleach.
exhaustion cares not for form, only exertion.
The wolf collapses once more into bed, tired from a day of accounting. He
thinks to turn on the TV, but he slips away before getting the strength to rise
for the remote.
In his dreams, there are children clutching at his skirt with big bright eyes
begging him not to sleep. Not to dream. Not to feed. He brushes them aside as
he always does, and fixes her makeup in the mirror. She glances back at them,
quivering on the bed like a bear, a shark, a dinosaur, before she sweeps to her
feet and goes out for a night on the streets, looking for a bar and a stranger
to meat.
The moon once more reaches it's zenith. He is awoken with a pang of humanity as
his hunger transforms him back into an ape with lust in her eyes.

Paying your employees more makes them better workers.
An extra 2$ per hour might mean they can eat out an extra night, they might be
able to afford a car, and they might be able to focus just a bit more without
crying in their sleep about an unexpected bill.
With less stress, employees perform better. They are more loyal. They work
harder.
Pay your employees more. They are your greatest resource.

remote jobs are less common these days because they're realizing which parts

the entire capitalist machine runs on like, 50,000% more labor than it needs.
It's not that complicated, it's not very revolutionary, just a lot of
duplicated effort and meaningless communicational transactions.
I'm kind of glad they're getting rid of all the jobs. Maybe it'll free up
people to do something productive, for once, if only we had the capital to

cool! my tip is to walk down the aisles and look at at least one book per aisle
- whichever you feel called to, don't question it too much. Then just grab
whichever one you're most interested in learning more about and BOOK IT out of
the store before they can tackle you to the ground while yelling "STOP THIEF"
if you're lucky there'll be an old grandma in the background crying and maybe a
kid saying "mommy why are they tackling that poor person" and the mom will say
"hush now this kind of thing happens, say would you like some icecream?" and

low key kinda surprised they haven't made an animated robot friend that
narrates whatever chatGPT says in a back-and-forth conversation.
though I kinda get why, because setting up the context is the expensive part
and generating 100 words and generating 1000 words is basically the same
computationally.
somehow, that doesn't feel very human. Maybe, just maybe, LLMs aren't
intelligent?

It's similar but it's not the saaaaame... Plus it's only one color I think. And
a lot less bright.
Maybe we can find some kind of bacteria that can be genetically engineered to
produce one type of the chemicals, and another that produces the other, so when
they interact it'll produce light indefinitely.
(what about conservation of energy?)
um... maybe make them photosynthesize or something? so you have to charge it in
the sun and then it'll glow all night.

the reason Discord won't allow you to join their communities via 3rd party
clients like TUI's and CLI's is because they're worried games will just bake a
client into the game and hide all the community stuff. They're worried because
there's no reason why a fighting game needs to have a button for viewing a
puzzle game's community.

Growing up, I started with 3 video games - Super Mario Deluxe, Dragon Warrior
1&2, and Asteroids. For the gameboy color. Then, a year or two later (what
felt like forever), Super Mario 64 and The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time.
Classics. I was so lucky. Not because it was more expensive than my peers, but
because I had the right games.
Others joined later, Tetris, Mario Kart, Star Fox, etc... But having so few
that were so good for so long made me adore them. I would play for about an
hour a day, any more would cut into my imaginative play-time.
I did not dream of games. But I craved their moments.
These days, I play games for so long that I dream of them. In my most
vulnerable moments I treat them like my baseline state, rather than a
prescribed appointment of delight.
I miss wandering around without thinking of my objective. The games seemed to
change, rather than progress. They felt alive to me. I never beat them, because
I didn't need to.
I'll raise my kids the same way, if I ever having any...

This Reddit thread is wild to me. Like... Why did the designers of Androids and
iPhone just... stop designing ways to safely and easily transfer files? Why the
heck doesn't every android have a built-in SSH server that automatically and
permanently pairs to your PC using an automatically managed private key the
first time you plug it in? The user doesn't care about security, they just want
to click on a picture, click the "view on PC" button, and then open up their
downloads folder. (paraphrasing the comments) - so why don't we make that
happen. What happened to tech, that we stopped working as soon as the consumer
decided they wouldn't pay for it? (it being a file transfer service)
It's like healthcare. You don't stop treating someone when they're healthy, you
ask them how they'd like to feel and you make it happen. (hormones).

I got one desktop
one laptop desk
two on the couch
one in a comfy chair
one on the bed
and two outside on the porch
so (1 2 4 5) that's 5 indoors, 6 if they're familiar enough to lounge on my
bed, and 8 if we're allowed outside.
Could also pull the hammock and chair in from outside but it might get a little
cozy. Call it 8 or 9 depending on how close we are.

beep-boop look at me, building up my computer and setting up a new TV
I like making things work, I like making things turn on, I like the way they
glitter when they light up the room at dark
it feels good to build up
this new functionality
it feels good to make things work and go
"beep"
when they turn on
... I should get a buzzer for my motherboard. Like, a really quiet one, that's
just louder than the fans.
looks at dwindling bank account
oh right, nobody will hire me, so.
I wonder if they would if I could still pass for a man?

playing one of my 4 gameboys, reading some of my books or journals, using their
own brought devices, playing with my cat (she's not sociable but if you don't
mind her claws she can fight and that's kinda fun) watching something on the
TV, talking with other people, making / eating food, um... sleeping... and
"sleeping"... idk what else tho. Drawing? Getting stoned? I have lots of bad

I am currently in the stages of applying to work at a multinational corporation
primarily located outside of America. It is a respectable institution that
commands great respect.
However, I am borderline incapable. If I am chosen to work there, I
will fail and I will embarrass America on the world stage. I
am not one of our best, nor am I one of our brightest and boldest. I have
unique perspectives, and those are valuable, but the society
and the systems I find myself in has proven incapable of utilizing me to my
utmost potential.
I must work. I cannot work. But I must. I am disabled. But I must be able.
Capitalism compels it.
Would that our system could be something consensual. I am worth more as a
writer than a laborer. Yet laborers are the only ones being hired.
I am not an engineer. I enjoy engineering.
I am not a laborer. I enjoy labor.
I am a writer, and perhaps little else besides.
When I die, nothing remains of me but my bones. My words are not desired. My
life is not impactful. I am not special.
Well... Not special since I have given up cannabis. If I started smoking weed,
if I felt secure and enough to do so, perhaps I might utilize my instability
for great (GREAT) artistic ends.
But art is labor. And labor is difficult.
Where am I to go from here? I cannot pay rent. I am isolated and alone. I am
deprived of affection. I crave it. I am lost in my own heart, begging the world
to give me a start, but the start has passed long ago. There is nothing to do
but what I've been meant to do, what I've been hiding from myself and the
world. I have been wasting my talent on tweets. How mundane.
... I can do better than profane.

Witches ride bikes everywhere (now that they've been invented) because they're

our stems are grown from the same nutrients, the same soil, the same climate
but we blossom differently, and we should live in an ecosystem co-interactively.
I don't really use labels that much. Hence why I clarified in the original

organizational ones.
At the end of the day, people are people, and we meet and greet in much the

There's 4 shoulder buttons, L1, L2, R1, and R2, so you can push one of those to
swap between screens. You can also push another one to swap between top on the
left, bottom on the right, and top on the right, bottom on the left, and a
third mode where there's only one screen shown.
Of course, the easiest to play games are the ones that only really use one
screen, or where switching between them isn't that big of a deal (turn based
games for example)
the touch-screen uses one of the analog sticks, and it's... not BAD, but it's
not the best.
However, for games like Final Fantasy 3 it's great!!

when I think of crowd sizes, I don't think "we're winning! hooray!" I think
"okay so what are they up to, where are those people, what caused them to
disappear, are they busy or are they dead" because questions like that provide
strategic value, while statements like "we're winning! hooray!" improve morale.
I'm not in charge of morale. I'm not in charge of anything, but mostly because
I'm too public for that kind of thing. Morale is important, it's perhaps the
MOST important thing. But strategy is also important, and must not be
forgotten. Honestly though, I do believe we're winning, and I think it will
crush the spirits of quite a few people. How sad... But war involves a lot of
crushing, whether it be fought with blades, bullets, or words of madness like
mine.

what if instead of sending "cease and desist" notices, corporations sent "hey
you need to transition to publicly owned assets" notices?
if progress is slow, they can pour funding into the project. If they're
intentionally going slow and not meeting their reasonable deadlines, then they
can be sued, and that's a whole process during which the "cease and desist"-ed
project can't legally be used by anyone.
the deadlines are set based on the scope of the project and the capabilities of
the team, capabilities which may be augmented by the infusion of dosh by the
parent company.
At the end, the product must be completely publicly owned, as in
free-and-open-source, so that they cannot be allowed to compete with the parent

potential for good and benevolent ends, and to that end we must begin by
dismantling capitalism!"

you are what you eat, and if you're alive, then you animate what you eat into
your form.
