Email mastodon+swiley@swiley.net (this makes all of my computers beep and turn on an indicator light and is always the fastest way to reach me.) I was on octodon a while ago but abandoned my account. I've never been a member of gab or parlor.
If you’d like to learn to program I would consider the SICP [1] more or less the peak of American CS pedagogy (at least as far as beginners go) along with “The Practice of Programming” once you get through that.
I play ukulele, I’m ok at reading music and decent at improv. I learned from Walter Piston’s “Harmony” and some of Adam Neely’s videos.
My main phone is a pine phone so if I don’t pick up when you call the battery is probably dead, the modem is probably dead, or I’m currently swearing at calls/pulseaudio/alsa. I’d strongly recommend sending an email instead.
Dispite what my web page says I’ve stopped uploading my scratch projects to GitHub once I started to understand the basics of collaboration with git. I was using the flamegraph as gamification/motivation but it doesn’t work as well with feature branch/squash merge workflows so I just keep most things on my VPS until I’m happy with publishing updates.

@geotechland Don't use non-federated and closed social media, it's not good.

I'll agree with your recommendation and say that not just white men but all men should do those three things. All men are dangerous by nature but the useless ones become tools for the wicked.
I'm not sure I agree with your argument for it. It's clear that many (most?) universities are actively racially discriminating but not all do. You'll likely find that the ones who don't discriminate based on race (like the one I went to ) behave the way they do on principle. These institutions recognize their purpose in empowering the most capable people to improve the world around them.
I think you're fighting the wrong fight. You should fight for Civilization and Principles, not race. There are two reasons:
One: A principled civilization detests genocide. There's no better way to secure the future of *any* race than principles. People of all groups and races can recognize how abandoning principles potentially jeopardizes their group.
Two: fighting a war on race can only lead to destruction. By dividing us racially the architects of terrible evils like genocide make the fight even harder. This is what the Germans chose in the early 20th century and it worked out in a predictable way: they were beaten and an incredible number of them were raped by Russians.
If you reason with materialism and not principles you end in ruin.
If you fight for your race and not Civilization you'll damn it.

@MissLane The solution to the copyright issue is simple: publish the source. I expect they'll do that since there's no good reason not to.
I think waiting to enable the thing and just presenting a billboard is probably more marketing/PR than anything else, I'm not sure what kind of sabotaging that can really prevent.
@NEETzsche @lichelordgodfrey @RoyalJohnny242 Yeah and that's part of why I didn't want poa.st blocked. It seems like we can still talk though, it's not clear to me what exactly happened.

>morally disgusting.
I think the only answers you'll accept involve reject absolute morality.
My answer is that life is difficult and unpleasant and sometimes there aren't nice answers. Sometimes the bad people win.
@lichelordgodfrey @NEETzsche Yeah it is gross, that's why I said I'm not really convinced it is legitimate.
@lichelordgodfrey @NEETzsche I'm not convinced it is. I certainly don't think we should be fighting for them.
@NEETzsche @lichelordgodfrey @RoyalJohnny242 I don't think there is a nice answer to any of that other than preventing mass migration.
@NEETzsche @lichelordgodfrey @RoyalJohnny242 Yeah, deporting illegal immigrants is a reasonable thing to do (I was under the impression that was the law as well.)
