@flyingsaceur @screwtape in the vi vs emacs wars I'm a vi guy. but when it comes to anything else I'm +1 on emacs. we are brothers in arms

@screwtape graphviz is the vi of graph/node diagram tools

@cstross

"Hey buddy, have you ever used Eva Braun?"

"Who hasn't?"

EvaBraun.io: A site like the Nazi version of Ashley Madison (TM)

honorary spokesmodel:
Melania Trump

tired: IoT

wired: IoE (explosives)

@Nonilex Trump's plan eerily echo Nazi German tactics. I did graduate level study of Hitler and Nazi Germany back in my university days.

@HunterZ I trust Firefox a little more by now to not spy on me, compared to Chrome or Safari

@shojiwax clean water. both ice cold and hot. useful for sooooo many things

The Super Bowl is one of the days each year which reminds all Americans of a barbaric part of our culture which we should -- if we were truly a wise and sophisticated species -- finally abandon.

Yes, I am sorry to say it but even I have to admit just how dumb and awful it is:

Roman numerals

#NFL
#football
#SuperBowl
#SuperBowl2024
#RomanNumerals

@chas JFIF sounds meaningful

@freemo btw your profile says you think Biden is racist and senile. curious why you think so

@feditips rainbow theme has been ruined unfortunately. when I was kid it was just a pretty and innocent thing. maybe meant hope or dreams. but in recent years its been adopted to mean certain very specific sexual and political things. which are not as wholesome or as easy to accept for everybody, let alone SFW

@nixCraft the one place where its always been the Year of Linux on the Desktop

@grumpygamer VP of Marketting prob was *long* on the pajama industry. so just Talking Their Book

(eg. long johns)

@GrimmReality the one thing you said about Musk which doesn't seem like a fair criticism or character flaw is that if he does believe in making lots of kids

theres a good argument in favor of it, from his perspective -- they'll inherit genes which favor higher IQ, they'll likely get lots of nutrition, edu, exercise, & have less stressful starts in life than the vast majority of ppl. regardless its a personal choice & part of his private life

the Nazi & Nazi-adjacent stuff is fair game. heh

@e_urq I assoc the word genocide with perhaps the most canonical example of it: the Jewish Holocaust by Nazis in WW2

think we have to be careful to make distinctions about situations where someone simply isnt allowed to do some thing X they wish to do, vs, like a Holocaust with gas chambers & death camps etc. are lots of things that I'd love to do in life but I'm not allowed or would be otherwise "oppressed" by others. I dont call it genocide

There has been a rise in hate & cruelty, certainly!

@e_urq translate that as "not being allowed to be 100% myself or allowed live my daily life exactly as *I* wish, or not allowed to be 100% happy, because Others preventing it"

which is a constraint for everybody, though prob more of a pain for some than others, and varies by individual
