Yeah I’m basically Einstein without the whole “smart enough to literally change the world” thing, too! /lh

What a shame. Well, thanks anyway!

@andy.baio.net Did you ever talk more about your ~4 year old implementation of NUS AutoLyrixAlign on AWS? I saw it ages ago on the bird site. Kinda curious because I run a website where people might want to align text lyrics to audio automatically

A terminal window showing an SSH login session to a VPS. The screen displays a user presence confirmation message for an ED25519-SK key. A "Big Chungus" ASCII art logo and matching text saying "chungus" is drawn, followed by the Ubuntu command prompt.

fun fact: my server is named chungus because it is big

I’m not fond of capitalism. It has felt increasingly impossible to yearn for “honest” success when every successful company is morally deplorable. At least, ever since I became aware of it. More likely, though, it’s always been like that, and I just grew up and realised that.

One of the darkest thoughts that haunts me is that if it weren’t for my morality, I would become very rich, very quick. Scamming, fraud, other despicable methods of obtaining wealth are concerningly common, especially where I come from. The dark part comes in when I harbor regrets for my morality

Depression is like being colorblind and then constantly told about how colorful the world is

i can't see the community note could you add a more prominent circle so i can definitely see it? /j

I hope he actually does it justice and tries using the phone instead of hating how things in a different OS are in a different place. A lot of people coming from Android demand and persist that the way Android does things is objectively better. It’s subjective though. But I wouldn’t hold my breath.

He’s going to hate a bunch on how Apple does things in iOS compared to Android while completely disregarding the fact that every OS has established UX paradigms that users are used to (think window controls being on the left in macOS).

Alongside actually valid critique like no sideloading.

wow whenever I open Shitter I feel genuinely dirty, the people on there really do suck now.

IMO, the broader Linux community has always had a massive problem with elitism and critique. Sometimes, the user really is stupid. Sometimes, though, maybe it’s worthwhile to listen and consider a newbie’s struggle. People are always being weird about it and choose to die on random software hills.

Can I get money for content then

Andrew Tate got banned from Bluesky in less than one day.

Another reason things are so much better here than Twitter.

with every day I’m on here I realise more and more just how toxic EVERY other current social media is

lofi girl if she was BASED

such strong cozy vibes ily

1. Go to Discord or others, this is microblogging
2. Maybe but who wants to know only 0.001% ever engage? Useless.
3. Trends are always full of BS and are bloat. Useless.
4. Sure
5. Maybe for ‘official’ (.bsky.app) domains, but favoritism in terms of federation
6. Not for everyone, not like X

Did everybody enjoy that video streaming marvel that was the Mike Tyson fight last night?

I do keep tapping see less but it really doesn’t help, in fact I think it’s making it worse (or there’s just more people)

Bluesky gurus, is there like a way to just exclude US (and preferably, world too) politics from my Discover feed?

Like I simply want Discover minus politics for the moments when I’m not feeling like seeing how awful all politicians are

unironically probably one of the most relatable things for anyone with adhd (ofc not anyone anyone but (also multiple parenthesis btw like you get me a lot of people are gonna relate

‎Croissant - Cross-Posting ‎It's a social network explosion! And you can now post to all of them in one app.  Croissant solves that oh-so-2024 problem of wanting to post to all these great new social networks — Threads, Bluesk...

If you use iOS, there’s this. Apparently it works well and is a good app, but costs $60 for lifetime access; or $3/mo, or $20 per year. The free tier is utterly useless 🥰

a person is using a smart phone with a temperature of 42 degrees celsius on the screen . Alt: clip from the Black Mirror episode „Nosedive“: a person is using a smartphone, with everything around it being designed in an overly perfect, smooth and polished manner. their clothes match their light pink skin tone, their phone is light pink and has a darker pink background, the shot is colour graded to be rather pastel

modern ui has lost charm, soul and humanity. everything is aligned, nothing is janky, all is perfect. AWAKE, YOU ARE LIVING IN BLACK MIRROR NOSEDIVE (gif related)

BRING BACK UGLY OLD JANKY UI
