healthy masculinity is being gay for your air traffic controller

Idk about that man I played kickball for the first time in like 2 decades and it was a blast

Saw a post saying some shitty Christian lemmy instance was spamming bullshit on one of their latest posts, I said something along the lines of “probably Russians”. Come to find out my comment was removed and I was banned… then to find out they effectively have a CCP agent running town… lol.

I’ve seen people mention they were a garbage instance, now I know why! They said I broke rule 1 … this might just be the app I’m using but they don’t even have any fucking rules to look at lmao.

Glad they did the work for me and made it easy to avoid them.

ChanHaeng Lee (@2chanhaeng), one of the @fedify maintainers, is asking the #fediverse which of his two projects he should present in the Social Web devroom at @fosdem 2027.

@drfed is an #ActivityPub debugging tool that he is building with @z9mb1, @gaebalgom, and me. fedi.blue (https://fedi.blue) is a library for servers that interoperate over both ActivityPub and the AT Protocol. Both would make good talks, which is why I would rather the audience picked.

The poll closes on 13 November 2026, so vote for the one you would rather sit through. #Fedify has three maintainers now, and all three of us are going to #FOSDEM 2027 and submitting proposals to the devroom. (The CFP is open until 27 November 2026 if you have a talk of your own.)

@sashabilton Currently work on games, but I used to do interactive media at the intersection of government / academia, with a specific focus on accessibility for the sciences (particularly astrophysics)

@fireborn why does everything suck so much aaaaaa @guilevi @Kaliah

I stayed up way later than I should have last night but due to having bonkers bananas dreams it actually feels like I slept for way longer than I actually did.

“Home security can now fly.” Ring has announced an AI-powered drone to patrol your home’s interior.

If that’s what you want. There are a few home features that might cause some problems. PetaPixel has the details:

@talon @guilevi @Kaliah That's not to say Android is much better. System events, such as scrolls, are queued behind app animations that block the main thread. So an app can block scrolling buy just animating on the main thread and your screen isn't usable.

I'm not going to sign #HumanEmacs because I *want* discussions about LLMs effectiveness in particular with open weight models, for example.

You can't put the genie back in the bottle.

LLMs are here to stay. Ignoring their impact without any discussion as proposed on https://human-emacs.org/ is the wrong approach in my opinion. Blocking is not the best thing here, discussing the terms would be better.

If not, what's next? Block all people who use hardware where its vendor has some connections to unfair workforce policies? Block all #FOSS contributors whose electricity supplier as a certain amount of nuclear energy?

It's never black or white.

I think we've got enough experience with #cancelculture, over-stressed #policitcalcorrectness and similar movements already.

I acknowledge the good spirit behind it, I disagree on the chosen method.

YMMV.

"Armistice Day, later known as Remembrance Day in the Commonwealth and Veterans Day in the United States, is commemorated every year on 11 November to mark the armistice signed between the #Allies of World War I and #Germany at Compiègne, France, for the cessation of hostilities on the Western Front of World War I".
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armistice_Day

This is an official explanation of the "Armistice Day". The reason for both of fire camps to sign the Armistice is not written in the articles of wikipedia.
The real reason for the war to stop was the Revolution, which started in May of 1917, by the russian working class and its soldiers on the front and its spreading in some other capitals of #Europe. The same time the European and US regimes were still imprisoning those who opposed the useless bloodshed of the Great War. The fear of spreading the Revolution and an unwavering stance by the Bolsheviks on ending the war were the only factors for the rest of the powers to cease the fire.

Commemorate those who really contributed to end the war, not those who signed it.

Sounds like a great summary of the reddit experience.

I signed up for the Reddit secret Santa once like a decade ago. Spent a bunch of time researching what to get, and made a really thoughtful gift bag of candy and toys from Western Canada based on what my recipient told me he liked.

The person who got me as their recipient sent me a $5 Amazon comic book for a video game I’ve never played. It looked and felt like the grocery store fliers you get in the mail.

Oh and whoever I sent my gift to claimed he never received it.
