@binarydigit fingers crossed!

@binarydigit btw, do you mix live on Twitch or elsewhere? I remember listening to your sets on YT but I would blow the dust off my Twitch account if you do

@binarydigit sick tee

@harrybo93 @binarydigit I hereby request one

I'm having my own moment of "this platform feels like it's dying". So many folks outside of my usual interest bubble went MIA for weeks and I miss having balance to whatever I'm seeing in my feed these days.

@binarydigit Oh okay, looked similar. Still a lady of culture.

@binarydigit What’s that camera on a stand and is it a Nikon Z fc?

Dear friends,

If you automate stuff like books you've read / films you've watched / etc. to be posted to your account, please use a hashtag or a predictable pattern (emoji? text string?) I can use for filtering these out.

Reading a more detailed review would be nice, but the sole fact you consumed a thing or gave it some arbitrary number of stars is rather uninteresting + I'm more likely to miss that important thing you actually want me to read and react to.

Thank you.

@cjerrington @lene @bobmonsour Hey, thanks for the recommendation!

Also, hi @binarydigit, I lost you from my radar when I moved off mstdn.games and I’m glad to see you again. Gotta see if you’ve recorded another DJ set since then ❤️

@multiverseofbadness I low-key hate you but I deeply appreciate self-awareness 😅

Some time ago, while discussing something of little relevance, I pointed out it takes more effort to debunk false statements than to express them.

Today I learnt this unfortunate phenomenon has a smart-sounding name.

"Shit, we could have made those params optional"

The @auschwitzmuseum has been posting photographs of individual victims of the camp.

On #Facebook, 21 of those posts were flagged as 'nudity, bullying and harrassment, hate speech, violence encitement'[^1].

As of November 2023, Meta had 65 Polish-speaking moderators for a monthly avg of 23,5M Poles on FB[^2].

Apparently their work on AI-based moderation tools has been going swimmingly well since the Rohingya genocide in Myanmar. 😓

@multiverseofbadness aaah, the classic. I feel I'm gonna listen to LOTS of piano music this week. 😄

Every time I hear boogie woogie played on the piano, it's a strange experience.

To my untrained eye and ear it sounds and looks like folks just spam random keys and they don't even need notes to consult. And yet it all sounds weirdly coherent.

@emocoder I love this saying, I'll calque it to Polish and use it casually.

I run an Eleventy template and two sites that consume it.

I'm tired of manually updating the template and then porting changes to the two sites I run.

It would be great to replace two sites with a script that would pull the latest version of the template and load the configuration data or stuff.

🤔

@me take it as a confirmation your instance is indeed federated and recognized as a legitimate actor in the ecosystem 😄

Elon Musk and Ben Shapiro arriving to Poland to visit Auschwitz and speak at antisemitism symphosium.

Life imitates comedy.

Dear #lazyweb,

Does any of you use any over-ear headphones with an exceptionally good built-in mic?

I'm okay to pay an arm and leg but they should be comfortable and offer servicable voice quality for long video calls. Can be wired. Preferably no software component needed, plain ol' mini-jack plug desirable.

I'm thinking about downgrading from Blue Yeti to declutter my desk but I don't want to compromise too much on mic quality. It makes tons of difference to me when others use good mics.
