Welcome
#TIL The C preprocessor is actually Turing-complete if you try hard enough. There's even the Order programming language, a functional programming language built entirely upon the C99 preprocessor, with first-class anonymous functions, partial application, tail recursion, reflection, arbitrary-precision arithmetic, and more! https://github.com/rofl0r/order-pp/tree/master/example
Its author also found there were only two C compilers in the world that could run Order correctly, one was GCC, another was the Wave C++ preprocessor library, everything else violated C99 (and even C89) in some ways.
I used to not care much about which words people use re: discord, but with the twitter/masto meta, the amount of people who are truly convinced that discord servers are decentralized and people who go "oh like discord" as soon as they see anything decentralized, even when it is in no way even slightly similar to discord, has pretty much convinced me that discord calling their guilds "servers" was very much a deliberate choice, and long term, a disaster for the average person's perception of the internet

Dishonored Sound track: Honor for all
https://youtu.be/gFQwn6M1RMc
Song Name Jon Licht and Daniel Licht -- Honor for All
LYRICS
Oh well, honor for all
Of the big and the small
Well the taller they stand
Well the harder they fall
We live for today
But we die for the next
With blood in our veins
And the air in our chest
So we step into war
With our hearts on the line
Dirt on our boots
It shakes free over time
The music it fades
The violin slows
The darkness it rises
As the sun goes
Love is a distant aroma at best
A withering smile that's stuck deep in your vest
The night air it wraps its fingers around
Your body it shakes from the now distant sound
Oh, the sound of her voice
A sweet symphony
Played over and over
Until you are free
The music it fades
The violin slows
The darkness it rises
As the sun goes
Can you feel the new day rising
Climbing up the east horizon?
They can't hold us
Now we'll fight through
Each and everyone will start new
Well, we shall not stumble
No, we shall not fall
We shall not crumble
No, we shall stand tall
With death it will come
As sure as a night
But we will not run
No, we live but to fight
With blood on our hands
And dirt on our knees
We tear at the ones
Who brought the disease
The music it fades
The violence slows
The darkness it rises
As the sun goes
Can you feel the new day rising
Climbing up the east horizon?
They can't hold us
Now we'll fight through
Each and every one will start new
Can you feel the new day rising
Climbing up the east horizon?
They can't hold us
Now we'll fight through
Each and every one will start new
Dang it, I meant to attach this to the episode 38 post of the #LinuxOutLoud #podcast post.
Score!

Just to give you an idea of how bad the whole "we block anyone who doesnt block who we block" has gotten, someone sent me this:

I would **love** to give M.A a script that goes over all the instances in the fediverse and alerts them of every instance that doesnt follow the exact same block list as them and spit it out. I'm sure they will realize they have to block 99% of the fediverse... its getting laughable at this point.
@rybaz same but this one is more about legal issues. Twitter is subject an FTC consent decree. *All* top people in charge of compliance with it just quit. This is a HUGE financial risk because twitter is now just winging it on the issue.
Time to eat might feelings as I work on my resume some more before bed...
