@lydiaconwell my take: I can't stand Starmer, and labour as a whole has been engaging a bit too much in identity politics which possibly disengages a lot of white working class families who used to be their primary voting base. Weird times in the UK given the history of labour party.

Notes: criticism of Labour =\= praise for Tories

Aim is to become so unique that I crash the simulation so when the programmer of the universe looks at the stack trace of the program, she finds me so interesting that it will be inclined to replicate my source code, thus, I shall pass on my essence to other simulation instances.

Hi @freemo, it seems that for some reason, qoto.org doesn't like my IP address?

Are you aware of other members having similar issues, and if so, how might I fix it? It seems that I'm only able to connect to qoto.org when using a VPN. So, either qoto is banning me, or my ISP decided to ban qoto. The weird thing is that my mobile carrier also seems not to allow me to go to qoto.org either (different provider to home internet). Additionally, I could not join using my university wifi either.

@underlap @theDoctor yeah (I'm also, admittedly left-ish), so naturally have more bias towards Johnson. Still, I think it's pretty objective at this point that he needs to go, irrespective of where you are on the political spectrum. Him brazenly breaking covid rules while ordinary people were being fined £10,000 for the same and, in the case of uni students like me, also being kicked out as well. So, if there are terrible consequences for doing something like a regular person but none if you're prime minister, that seems too unfair for me to let go.

@theDoctor @zpartacoos

Boris Johnson misled the British public prior to BREXIT, oversaw a BREXIT deal which is unworkable in Northern Ireland, mishandled the early stages of the pandemic, lied about parties at No. 10, and misled parliament (a resigning issue according to the ministerial code) on at least one occasion.

The irony ... I just wrote a toot about software being crappy and mastodon app (tusky) crashed

Hands down the most stressful week I've had in years. Pray for me fellas

@lucifargundam I wasn't trying to take a shot at you and I understand where you're coming from perfectly. I was trying to highlight that in the fedi there is a weird hatred towards people that work in big tech companies, almost as if we're supposed to all be independent freelancers or work in some super niche startup or something.

Not Invented Here? Guys, we have the and already! (No need for BS for this.)

@publicvoit @temporal@mastodon.technology dude clearly emacs shouldn't be randomly deleting or not saving changes made to org files... So, while git-based workflow is certainly a great safety net, that doesn't mean that it should be needed.

@pho4cexa could you elaborate on what was wrong? Whenever I've tried embedded rust I end up giving up because stuff just doesn't work. Even when following the original discovery embedded book there were tons of stuff that didn't work even when following instructions so... Deff an area where rust can improve in general.

do i know anybody who has done an #embedded #rust project? could use another pair of eyes on mine

i got a bootloader onto my atsamd21-based custom board, got my blink-a-single-led with custom bsp code to compile

but when i load it onto the chip, from what i'm seeing in gdb, it seems like it's stuck in a loop somewhere in peripheral initialization (cortex-m/src/peripheral/mod.rs) never even reaching my main function

frustrated 😕

Everything is bullshit. Life is meaningless. Hedonistic pleasures have consumed me. I now crave death so that I don't have to look at myself. I can't stand myself.
