 It's not a "solution" but a "distraction". Since YT and social media platforms are currently full of politics (a good thing!) I have setup a small little place on the web without politics and fights but fun & happiness :nkoHappy: Too much negative content can really have an effect and I want to battle that with this little video website that's not federated. I'm gonna fill with my funny videos from over the years and others can also! 
-Vladimir Lenin how am i supposed to come together with people who just campaigned on the pretense of wanting me to die?  Exactly I'm not doing very well with this whole "Well let's not criticize these people. They're just different from you." Nuts to that They're not "just different"  post "fuck" on bluesky: get some likes. post "fuck" on twitter: get harassed by the alt-right. post "fuck" on mastodon: get more than thirty people saying "fuck" in reply. А теперь нечто совершенно другое: беговой летучий мыш. > We show that vampire bats use amino acids from a recent blood meal to fuel RUNNING - a rare mode of locomotion in bats ideal for stalking prey. I’d worry less about your neck and more about your ankles!   Хранит отпечатки пальцев и батины заначки 😅 in the short term: do something that helps you cope with our reality. in the long term: reach out the people who both love and respect you and tell them how you feel. mutual aid is how we survived every time there’s been a hostile government and it’ll work again. we’ve been here before, we’ve survived, and we will do it again. It's been a long road, but it seems GIMP 3.0 is nearing completion, with the release of a release candidate build. Non-destructive layer effects, GTK 3 UI (with CSD option), new colour management system, improved onboarding, and a whole lot more. https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/11/gimp-3-0-release-candidate-is-ready-for-testing Yesterday a program made my terminal’s cursor disappear! I was really surprised because programs so rarely mess up my terminal these days. (fish prevents almost all problems like this) the problem was that it printed out "\033[?25l" to make the cursor invisible without printing out a corresponding "\033[?25h” to make it visible again like most "my terminal is broken" problems you can fix this by running `reset` but it was VERY disorienting until I realized what had happened screenshots:

  @b0rk it is a bit annoying that there's nothing you can sensibly do before printing a shell prompt that resets _everything_. The 'reset' program sends ESC c, which resets the terminal completely to its power-on state, including clearing the screen. But you don't want to clear the screen before every shell prompt. You'd like a sequence that does all of ESC c _except_ that! So instead the shell has to think of every individual setting that might need to be reset, and likely forget one :-(  @b0rk i still remember the day I first met "reset". If there were an oscar nomination for cli utilities, I'd certainly name it. If the Democratic party was up for *actual* change, they would've pushed for replacing the hybrid of electoral college and first-past-the-post system with something more representative. You don't need to "steal an election" when the underlying math is susceptible to the point of being basically broken.  @eto_krivo This bot has been asked to generate an alt text for your image by @yura.

Giving up is just not me. My self-preservation is in full gear. I'm too enraged for this "go quietly into the night" shit. Дома появилась длинная доска, которую надо распилить. Думала, на что бы ее положить, чтобы удобно и безопасно это сделать. Пришла к мужу, спросила: "Есть два стула?"  Okay, time to accept I guess. We've done what we could do but it wasn't enough unfort The best thing now is to see how we can help in creating safe spaces perhaps, offer support and see how we can help navigate this new hell Let's try to focus on more positive things and help instead of the demon himself @stux This. And while the most affected are recovering (or trying to), think what the fuck we're gonna counter this with in the next four years. The Democratic party was too arrogant. The campaign was virtually non-existent, and when it was, it was amazingly tone-deaf. They thought they have it in the bag. Nuh-uh. You never do until you do. |
