@moira @lolgop At least in 2016 you could hypothetically say there were doubts about if he'd rise to the occasion and/or would become like a normal adult if he won. We know now that the worst case projections were either spot on or not pessimistic enough. There is no benefit of the doubt left after 2020. -

My first fediverse experience and my first code contribution to the fediverse was the Diaspora project. While I am Friendica based nowadays it is great to see that D* 0.9 is released. D* finally having an API for clients is a big deal. Congrats to the team! #diaspora #fediverse blog.diasporafoundation.org/77… -

The latest beta of the Relatica mobile and desktop Friendica client (v0.11.0) has just been released. This has some big updates including: better support for Bluesky and Threads content, the ability to limit yourself from sharing/commenting on/liking content from specific networks (like Threads, Diaspora, etc.), spellcheck on mobile platforms, showing network data for all posts/comments and federation delivery status for your posts/comments, and lots of other bugfixes and smaller features. It is in review in the Apple Testflight for iOS and macOS as well as in the Google Play beta system. Downloads for Android, Linux, and Windows are on the install page of the main project. See the CHANGELOG on the project page for more information about this release too. #relatica #friendica #fediverse

I think this totally nails it. I'm not sure why I never thought of it that way before! #uspoli #MSM

@thomasfuchs It was so futuristic that we took pictures with no film etc. But then when we needed to do something with the images the quality was such shit and it couldn't store many. Polaroids would have been better but then you had to scan it, etc. It's the usual caveat of being ahead of its time. -

@thomasfuchs I used one back in the day! Simultaneously impressive and underwhelming at the same time :( . -

I wholeheartedly approve of this message. Until we make progress on unfucking the Republican judiciary fuckery of the last 20 years, made orders of magnitude worse today. No more bringing knives to gun fights. #rant #uspoli -

@ljrk @lisamelton Yep. Grace Hopper was the only exception to that in my experience too. -

@osnews I fire this up on my physical Apple //c as well as in VMs to use it as a file manager environment of sorts. It's amazing how much they can squeeze out of that old hardware. It would have been cool if they had implemented an API layer so that apps could have used it for their UI layer like what GEOS did. #RetroComputing #Apple #Apple2 #Apple2Forever -

@darnell I have moments of reservation when I get on a Boeing plane at this point. I can't imagine trusting my life with them getting me into space. Then again I think people are way too optimistic about the reliability of all manned spacecraft systems we've ever built, yes including the SpaceX capsule. Invariably we get into a sense of complacency until someone dies or nearly dies. -

@LeaBug "The reaction is a signal for us to pause, adapt and learn so that our future approach to these moments balances celebration, inclusivity and broad-based appeal," Christina Hennington, Target's chief growth officer, told analysts in August...so throw LGBT people under the bus as usual. I am never delusional enough to think that any mass marketing campaign is ever anymore than a money grab for a market. It's still disappointing they caved as they usually do. -

@tchambers @shoq @evan If someone on the fediverse likes or responds to a post that federated over to their server do those interactions make it back to threads? Or does even that not happen so it is just a one way data flow right now? -

@carnage4life @goatsarah I'm watching some snippets of the latest quarterly earnings call and apparently mid-sentence Musk switched from calling it "full self driving" to "supervised full self driving". Something is up...maybe the sting of that lawsuit they just settled or maybe more. TBD. -

@carnage4life @goatsarah Agreed that people need to understand the limitations of things. But Musk didn't just have them call it "autopilot" or "driver assist" they had them call it "full self driving". He also put out BS videos of the cars supposedly driving themselves. I know a few Tesla owners that basically just put it in FSD mode and then browse the internet, read their phones, etc. in rush hour traffic. These are people that should know better too. They bought into the whole Tesla BS campaign on this feature. It's sort of like the friend that insists that they are actually a better driver when they are drunk because they pay attention more. Maddening. But at least the alcohol companies weren't pitching that mentality as a feature of their products. -

Today I checked off the first of my running goals by strongly finishing the half marathon in the Delaware Running festival. Ironically the marathon winner pulled in just behind me lol. I’m very pleased with my performance. #running -

The comments on a video about solutions to solving political divide in FOSS includes scolding him about acknowledging that LGBT people do actually exists is being political really highlights where the problem lies and it isn’t with the openly LGBT members and their supporters. Nor is the solution buying into the “apolitical” solution of erasing the open existence of minorities either. Fuck that noise. #foss #OpenSource #lgbt #politics
