(as does Linux) they're all Turing machines after all, why would they not be interoperable? Even if there's a translation layer, as long as the functionality of the software is the same, why would there ever be considerations as to whether or not a program would be able to be run on a particular computer? lack of hardware capabilities I can understand, that just means you need a better computer. But why, if the code is visible, would your computer not develop understandings about how to run each and every conceivable program written using known languages like C or Python? Seems like pretty basic stuff to me. (endless sufficient backwards compatibility) ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1122 ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── @user-831 @user-832 it's like how they solve problems in Star Trek - there's a bridge crew, and they exchange their opinions with each other of the situation as it unfolds. In doing so they can help guide one another through the problems they are tasked with solving in order to resolve the difficult diplomatic situation at hand. sorta like how with your method, people suggest their desired option continuously until they find an option that everyone wants. Or if only one person can't decide, they can pick any of the other options suggested (not by them) (as long as they can eat there / utilize the outcome of the decision being made, for example a vegetarian not being able to eat at a steakhouse or perhaps a librarian being tasked with something other than the storing and dissemination of vital information) ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1123 ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── @user-835 kinda feels like that type of work, the kind that people rely on, is more important than... whatever they were having you work on at work-work. (assumption on my part) and if that important work is not provided for, in the allocation of resources applied toward the developer who is developing security developments that develop required functionality for the development of people's communication/interactions, then perhaps resources should be allocated for resolving those difficulties. Or maybe not idk I'm broke, shows how much I know about money ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1124 ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── ┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ CW: re: Transposting, request for advice │ └──────────────────────────────────────────┘ @user-255 we are our own worst critics. But hey assuming he's right, trusting the validity of his experience, then I'd say: some people are born short and ugly, just gotta be confident and people will gravitate to you. "he may be an ugly son-of-a-gun but he's pretty good at [insert thing he's proud of being good at]" that kinda vibe though I will say there's very few truly ugly humans, we're all beautiful in our own ways. Just gotta find a presentation that you like and that aligns with the expression of your innermost form. That's how we express ourselves to the world in a way that others can understand and make sense of - the quality of our representation of our selves determines how it's perceived. especially for trans people... "passing" is essentially "how much does this person A. confine to gender norms and B. go above and beyond to hide parts of themselves that typically are associated with their opposite gender (the social role they were raised to perform) ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1125 ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── @user-838 x2 scales exponentially but it will never equal 3 (using integer values of x of course) perhaps the force can do things that make the destruction of a planet seem... childish and arbitrary ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1126 ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ CW: re: plurality question, boost appreciated but optional cannabis-mentioned │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ @user-841 ┌────────────────────────┐ │ CW: cannabis-mentioned │ └────────────────────────┘ for me my identities are sorta like masks that an actor would play while performing multiple characters in a scene. The actor still knows the totality of all the lines each character delivers, but they give a performance in a different voice and from a different perspective. like, "moods" a person might be in, or perhaps just frames of view. I don't talk to other plural system people, and the ones that I do talk to tend to have a more disassociated conception of identity politics than I do. Either I haven't met someone who was built like me or I'm just strange : ) that being said, I have a pretty bad memory. maybe it's related! or maybe it's the cannabis. oops better add a content warning. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/231 ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── A Firefox add-on / plugin that lets you open up a comment section on anything on the Internet. Your comments would be saved and you could sort them by "new" or "best (most up votes and fewest downvotes)" or "hot (most recent upvotes)" or "controversial (biggest differential)" The idea would be to create a shared collective experience of the Internet that was exchanged using an open standard or protocol that could not be ignored - it was synced by everyone who used the add-on for every website you visit, torrent style. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ |
