So im gonna start a website from scratch.. it will need some sort of database,not just static site... Im considering trying a new language and techs.... Im looking for suggestions, convince me!

For some background the site will be similar to aprs.fi in nature. There is an already written client that is in ruby that will talk to it through an API.

I generally support mask-wearing reflexively, but I appreciate your perspective

interesting & unexpected take - thanks for posting

It amazes me this moron managed to get the exact opposite out of what I said, and now im a pro-republican in hiding... these people have lost their fucking mind.

@freemo you’re the best freemo - stay hard & look to better days ahead 🚀

I made a robot that runs on physics, moving only through the application of force and torque. It's a bit top-heavy and wobbly when its turret is deployed though. Maybe I need to add training wheels...

@freemo

Understood, but my point stands: you are both more invested in this and have a thicker skin than myself; I trust you to weigh the alternatives and do what you believe is right. Anyone who doesn't (myself included) - well, they have lots of other options. I figure if you reach instance-blocking mode, they probably deserve it.

Well the number of trolling hate based instances has just got too overwhelming for to rely entierly on its users to suspend at this point. That said i dont want to force blocks on our user.

I am prioritizing sone sort of opt-out block system where we as admins can do server wide blocks but users can still opt out...

Sure sounds like bitter jealousy. Am I hearing bitter jealousy?

@freemo I have no problem with servers defedding Threads, it seems like a good move for some. I don’t like the “we’ll defed you for not defedding” movement, it’s coercive and against the strengths of federation.

> They're dressed up like psychotic sex freaks you asswipe pedo

In Italy, from 1995 to now, there is Platinette (it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mauro_Co), who is a drag queen appearing frequently on TV as host, and conducting his radio programs daily. He is very smart, provocative and sometime fun. He is very famous and well respected. He can do very serious and analytical discussions, or he can surprise you, telling something "out of the box". Probably being a man, with female aspects help him in being original.

All children of Italy of many generations know him, but I can assume that the damage he has done to them are zero.

When he speaks, you listen him, because he has charisma. You never think that he is a "psychotic sex freaks".

@freemo the difference is from technological advances in metallurgy and the change from black powder to modern smokeless powders

Modern ammunition designs just don't need anywhere near the same amount of case capacity to generate the same amount (or more) energy.

The .38 vs 9mm is a good example as they have roughly the same diameter bullet but the 9mm has almost ~30% more energy despite being ~30% shorter overall.

@freemo Correct, although the story is a little more involved in detail.

For the rimless .45, the Colt's original name was ".45 ACP" (Automatic Colt Pistol). The Colt's competitors tended to stamp their guns with ".45 Auto".

For the revolver .45, Colt's original name was ".45 Colt". However, since other revolver calibers had "Long" in the name, users of the cartridge called it ".45 Long Colt" and basically overcame factory's opinion. In part it helped to disambiguate it from .45 ACP.

There's no point in knowing any of this.

Has anyone experienced it on ? Its the second time @ClaraListensprechen4 had this happen but I'm trying to figure out if its specific to them or a general problem.
