@desea@akko.cuddlegirls.cafe asked:
what does being a person mean to you?Reply:
I hate being a person. It's awful. I have all these physical needs to eat, sleep, breathe, use a toilet, cook, clean and a brain that's just a mental health issue magnet. I never signed up for this. The only meaning it has is a constant, painful reminder that we have not yet elevated humanity to a higher state of being.

Stop doing phones

Humans were not meant to be reachable 24/7

Years of calling yet no real-world use found for transmitting voices over distances

Wanted to reach someone anyway for a laugh? We already had that: It was called letters

"Yes, please call me at 3 am. Please spend hours with a strange device attached to your ear"—Statements dreamed up by the utterly deranged

They have played us for absolute fools

Go faster
Go slower
Go standard library

Fast for JavaScript is like clean for a public urinal

You wouldn't sell voice packs of your meows

fedi

a place where "unleashed" associates negative emotions because they'd rather be leashed

The bigger the hat, the cuter the witch

Someone too lazy to do something about it

The floor is no longer lava. You can walk freely. You've been liberated from this curse.

Why do corporations love to tout flat hierarchies? Because they have a board of directors.

Servers are expected to run 24/7. But they don't have to be. Sometimes, they can also walk. Be a good server operator today. Let your server walk for a bit.

I wish I could hover over an emoji and it would tell me the canonical Unicode name for the codepoint

@alyx@void.rehab That's just called an "orgy"

@julia@snug.moe @thememesniper@wetdry.world Hear me out: Maybe someone's uploaded it to the Interwebs

While on the subject of making Windows executables do unspeakable things on non-Windows platforms, see https://github.com/taviso/loadlibrary
This repository contains a library that allows native Linux programs to load and call functions from a Windows DLL.

As a demonstration, I've ported Windows Defender to Linux.
