@xgqt I just realised I wrote that and not "HaTe MyLife" which is both more adequate for HTML and directly inspired by your post.

@xgqt mentally thinking of it as HaTe MyseLf from now on

Being the responsible parents we are, we have Carbon Monoxide alarms in the house, because hey, it’s what you do. Right?
Of course, they have never gone off (knock wood), so you do tend to forget that they exist at all.
Well, yesterday one of those alarms decided that it needed to really remind us that it exists, and that it’s been ten years since we activated it. Because it’s now time to replace it.
Of course, nobody was home - except for the dog. Who is now traumatized by that beeping hell-box that suddenly decided that it was a good idea to tell everybody out of the blue that it needs replacing - at 95dB, just to make sure.
Kidde - I’m sure you could at least start out with just a mild chirp, instead of going full “the bark collar from hell” crazy. No?
@freemo there's a chance for Betelguese
@coolboymew apparently it's completely fake and valve had no hand in creating this website.

That's not rhetorical. I'm really open to the possibility that I'm missing something. It seems like people who have more concerns about privacy and safety have the ability to organize their mastodon instance so it is locked down by default. And they can open up selectively. Yes, it puts more onus on you to make decisions rather than depending on other people to do the right thing. But again, I guess I thought that was the tradeoff people were making intentionally.
@tsugumi I tried to watch it until it loops. I can now add "lost a staring contest with an anime girl picture" to my achievements.

Mozilla neglecting its core product for years and losing marketshare while the suits that run it flail around wildly feels really true to its Netscape heritage.
@icedquinn honestly rossman does the same, one of his semi-recent videos was hard to watch for me since he repeats every point like 5 times at various portions of the video and actual deduplicated content could fit in ~4mins
@decodecode thanks!
On the topic of amazing instance administration, what was the anarchist-aligned instance the unencrypted database of which got seized by police from an admin's home or something like that?

no centralised social network could ever produce "the taliban deleted my account". that's a mastodon special.
They set up a queer instance under Afghanistan TLD XD
The next time you purchase an domain, It's important to see the TLD of who it was belong to and if the owner was a currently problematic country, I...
@BrodieOnLinux yes it is, I was astounded that nobody recommended it to me when I was going through Arch, Gentoo and the like when NixOS has all of their advantages and none of their PITA. At the same time if you know what you want it's both easier to use and more stable than "easy" distros like Ubuntu that shit the bed as soon as you try to venture off the beaten path. 9/10
@rad pamiętam jak za dziecka byłem ciągany po zabytkach, pięknej architekturze, sztuce, historii. Zdychałem z nudów. Wpadnięcie do mcdonalda było bardziej interesujące bo przynajmniej mogłem się bawić na zjeżdżalni.
Dzieci nie są przystosowane do doceniania takich rzeczy, to przychodzi z wiekiem. Żadnych reklam i tiktoków do takiej sytuacji nie potrzeba.
@jason @fribbledom you can literally put a piece of plastic in place of the screen, saving the cost of the screen without changing anything else about the manufacturing.
