I'm brand new here. Any tips on finding likeminded individuals would be extremely welcome! 💜🖤

I have to admit, python isnt really all that painful to use despite its ugly syntax...

One hint at what I'm watching today as I program.

"1,000 years ago, superstition and the sword ruled, it was a time of darkness, it was a world of fear, it was the age of..."

"I just like to know that the people in the instance are somewhat similar to me, as an approach to things, the sense of humor, the sensibility in general. That doesn't mean the ideas, the opinions, the alignment at all, but the approach we can use to talk about it. It's like the coffee machine outside of the lab."

Perfectly summed up there!

This was a very dense topic. I managed to read most of it, but I'm still having a hard time figuring out the core of the discussion,

I don't think we should invite users to not list posts. We could invite them to not public posts at a 3 seconds rate, but that's it.

Also, about STEM, I'm totally with freemo. I study in a scientific field, I am in a lab most of the week, but when I write here I don't feel like always talking about it.

Also I think that posts about etiquette should be shorter, I have a hard time going through all this messages =D

I love when a software projects develops with no glitches. Today I got GnuPG working and integrated, key generation going and integrated well into the docker-compose pipeline. Everything is going surprisingly smoothly!

Have a look at those two screenshots. See the differences? 

I am looking forward to the enhancements in GlitchSoc to percolate to other versions and forks.

Our sys admin here, @freemo has already mentioned he would like to merge some of these into the QOTO fork itself.

Time to do that is the problem, but the idea stands.

Cheers, ! 😉 🍾 🍷

@freemo I did take a course ages ago, when we HAD to learn CW to apply for a license.

One of the instructors brought in a vintage WWII commando radio set, and that was exquisite.

Lovely piece, all black, small and rugged by necessity.

WWII is a fascinating period, and I love it.

Similar to this one.

@freemo ok agreed, if kids want to strike they should do it in the weekend. That’s a reasonable compromise. I think you’ve just won me over

A poll the OP asked me to share, it asks "Which OS is using as your development environment?"

@freemo that makes a whole lot of sense. Didn't really know the climate strikes were _in schools_, despite hearing a lot about it. Thanks for enlightening me.

@chaos_hydra The most notable issue is her anti-education stance. She promotes kids play hookie from school in order to bring about climate change without a very clear set of objectives or demands to even bring it about.

The equivalent to this would be an educator starting a movement that said "We need to dump toxic waste in a river every friday to bring awareness to education". It is destructive to one cause in a vain attempt to bolster another.

More importantly though is that it is self-destructive to the climate activism in the first place. Climate change denial is rooted in people being uneducated, not being critical thinkers able to reason and understand the situation. So the very movement she is creating in the long run will perpetuate the problem rather than fix it.

Why is it so hard to get a good Role-model for climate change activism.

I used to be fairky active about climate change but now that Greta came along I had to distance myself from most organizations as many seem to praise or support her. It is such a shame we cant have role models in climate change we can look up to.
