You know the day destroys the night ...

@hedders I don't remember it, but it is entirely plausible that I zoned out.

@berniethewordsmith Not before such pussyblocking you made.

Thanks to everyone who responded! I think using the right knife is important for preparing and eating your food well, for your safety, as well as for all the other reasons you use a knife. I'm going with High.

I have heard that exact framing a lot. It's basically the design profession's revenge on the power that developers have held in the past not understaning that they also made themseves redundant to management.

I can't think of a better illustration of the fundamentally selfish, libertarian foundation of the free software movement than a GNU maintainer loudly affirming that contributions known to be produced by slave labor are welcome without reservation https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2026-11/msg00128.html

Saturday was Anchorage airport's first day this season with a high temperature at or below freezing. This is almost two weeks later than the average over the past 50 years. #akwx #Climate @Climatologist49

@farseen That

@mcc ohh do you mean boot a disk image in a drive directly as the main OS, without a VM? I remember setting up something like this for booting an ISO inside a FAT drive through grub, so it should be possible.

@azteclady Oh this is great! I asked around here about emery sand last month, this is very informative.

I have since bought a bottle of the sand and filled my old pin cushion with it, I'll share some pictures in a reply to this post. I'm also working on a bunch of copies to give away to my sewing group this Christmas 😁

@Gargron @acf @pkal @sstephenson I think software licenses (like GNU) are an imperfect example of the global test. Many people refuse to deal with certain licenses because they don't agree with its the policies.

And I think the Fediverse is an imperfect example of individual project maintainers deciding. Server maintainers decide who can join and what other servers to block. And I can report anyone I think should be blocked.

I don't think either of these is a terrible take. But whatever.

• Lemmy, Piefed, PyLova, Mbin
• All the apps (and there are quite a few)
• All the alternatives UIs (Photon, Blorp, old, etc.)

Thank you everyone

Sweet, fresh name for the blocklist.

Don’t feed trolls. Block, report, move on.

shout out to the lemmy developers for not making us be stuck on the other site

shout out to mastodon devs for making us have a better life than on Twitter

shout out to the pixelfed devs for allowing a actual photography platform to exist

shout out to the peertube devs for helping us not be stuck on youtube until the end of time

ETA: Shout out to the server operators who make the stuff be done

@Xibanya I'm going out on a limb and guess that higher pitch is considered a secondary sexual trait so obviously the higher the pitch the more feminine or something.

grumpy old man “Pet peeve that gets stronger every year”:

stop replacing actual pressable buttons with crappy ‘touch sensitive buttons’ on appliances.
1. they are shit,
2. they don’t work if you have wet/dirty fingers,
3. you have to look to find them as there is no affordance,
4. the markings explaining them wear off leaving an incomprehensible area of actions

And that is maybe the most insidious thing about LLMs: It gives everyone the permission to disrespect everyone else's knowledge and experience while in practice making everyone's position when trying to defend against capital worse.

That is the core economic corrosion: LLMs destroy the foundation for solidarity and cooperation.
