Assuming lack of helm control, what kinds of maneuvers would you consider?

@niconiconi

Audio games are a thing, see e.g. https://store.steampowered.com/app/989790/The_Vale_Shadow_of_the_Crown/

In a world where fedi is more of a set of sometimes-connected communities it's much more important to make the choice of community(ies?) to be part of less permanent. Already today people fret a lot about the choice of instance to join and sometimes join none.

(Somewhat tangentially related, I found the description of desiring a community while having doubts about it in https://clarkesworldmagazine.com/kritzer_05_23/ though-provoking, in that it describes an, I think, common problem that is rarely described in this fashion.)

@foone

Is it usually the amplifier or the coils (I assume this is a CRT with magnetic deflection) that fails? Also, did you ever have horizontal deflection alone to fail?

@ellenmorrisprewitt

A reason why I try to phrase things differently is that "privilege" often carries the notion of something that's very much not a right or should not be a right (compare: "driving is not a right but a privilege"). People sometimes refer to things that I think _should_ be rights as privileges (e.g. being safe when walking around at night). I feel that I'm normalizing the not-a-right status of things when I call them privileges (or part of privilege).

I just realized that I don't have the same impression when I see the word underprivileged. Thanks for making me notice that.

@Rasta tbf it's not the case that animals can't be frozen (they can if they are small enough: you can freeze and thaw rats)

@b0rk

I really appreciate that, in all cases I remember, you are more specific than "don't start weird arguments", and would be happy if you continued that.

(The reason for my appreciation is that being more specific (a) helps me not fret on whether what I intend to do follows the request (b) intimates that specificity and directness are part of norms of the space, so let's me fret less about people being unhappy with what I'm doing without telling me that in an effective fashion.)

@amin

This might even be solidarity with yourself at some future point in time.

A funny place where that happens in imo many cities is buying paper public transit tickets (as opposed to using some kind of app).

@janboehm Was ist die Besonderheit des Pistaziencroissants? Ich kann mich nicht erinnern solches zu sehen, aber würde es nicht ausserordentlicher als ein nüssiges finden.

@gsuberland

Ah, wait, the macro seems to affect the names of the functions that are compiled into libgcc, and not the names used to call them.

@gsuberland

WDYM by address? If these functions were dynamically linked, the address would be found at dynamic linking time, so I assume they are statically linked and included in the piece of code you're generating.

You probably could mess with a custom linker script, so that the relocations that address those functions would be handled differently. You could also use DECLARE_LIBRARY_RENAMES (https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/Soft-float-library-routines.html) to point them at other named functions.

I'm not sure what you want to happen when these functions are called. I presume you'd want to write your own versions of them (that will e.g. proxy to ones already-present in the target). That you should be able to do with either of the approaches above.

Disclaimer: I might be unaware of some additional specialness of softfloat functions from the POV of gcc.

@grrrr_shark does it also affect thirst?

@grrrr_shark have you considered asking at a Brocki? This might be out of their league, but they do deal with at least some large objects.

@dalias
Or, have the instance promulgate different contents of the toot to different people without making any indication that it was edited.

@mjg59 @penguin42

nordtronic seems to be making such: https://nordtronic.com/shop/box-relay-zigbee-890p.html

I have never seen one irl, so can't say anything useful about them though.

@mcc

Such sinks exist at least in medical settings (as an alternative to an elbow-operated tap, so that you can wash your hands and not touch the handle afterwards).
