working with Linus must be insufferable

My Boss Is A Literal Child

Emily coming out as trans is career ending because LTT does not retain female hosts

@kaia@brotka.st is Germany still weird with what payment providers are accepted

they turned women into a pronoun

@SuperDicq@minidisc.tokyo @james@pl.starnix.network cult mantra
trying so hard to pretend u dont know what theyre talking abt

@SuperDicq@minidisc.tokyo @james@pl.starnix.network the FSF is tho, and the part of the movement associated with it is.

like vro you pulled this from forcing GNU down someone saying linux, as is common for the cult, to "free software is not a cult".
if you didn't do that sleight of hand consciously, you should consider why.

cel just said electrons are massless

@duponin@udongein.xyz @Jain@blob.cat @doti@pl.catboyindustries.co parasocial network

@duponin@udongein.xyz oh my god I need this

@Jain@blob.cat ah yes, horrors within my comprehension.

I know, instead of having a federated social network work based on social relationships, let's encourage people joining instances at fucking random for no reason and have them leave when they don't fit in cause it's an instance chosen at fucking random.

theres not technical solutions to this shit unless u got some minority-report-esque tech. and, if you do, please destroy it.

@Jain@blob.cat yeah, I'm sure that incredibly contrived example where maybe it can help a trivial amount if the stars align is worth the shitshow previously mentioned.

@Jain@blob.cat theres no power given to users here. the best power you can give them is encourage them to make their own instance. and I don't mean that sarcastically.

@Jain@blob.cat because that's a real scenario.
not to mention, uh, federating blocks still does not help charlie here, he'd still have no clue whats the underlying issue.

what's the actual thing you want? cause it sounds like you're trying to argue for something else (cause the scenario makes no sense at all. or, at best, absurdly naive)

@Jain@blob.cat You wanna expand on that? detecting blocks is a consequence of the information being publicly available.
for being "transparent" here, as you said, it doesn't matter whether Alice federates her blocks or not. if bob wants to check, he can check for himself without Alice shouting out the entire list for no fucking reason.

@Jain@blob.cat The "if there's any way around it, it's pointless" train of thought is completely besides the point. Not to mention that instances that federate this information (or have it be scrapeable) will inevitably have it be scraped by block databases, like fba. The complexity increase in figuring out the network of blocks is huge between openly shouting it and not.

@Jain@blob.cat federating instance rejects or having them be public creates social issues. People cannot behave on the internet and will assume all kinds of shit about a block, which leads to rumors, pitchforks, "reeeee u block me" shit, etc.
And for what? So you can check if someone will get your reply by going out of your way to do so (when fedi software doesnt make that apparent on the user end anyway).
Then you have people actively obsessing over being blocked. Whether its because they want the drama and are like oh no woe is me im blocked again, or the braindead "haha look how hard i can piss" type. Why feed that kind of derangement? It's absolutely absurd.

It's literally not that deep, the issues caused by the lack of publicly available block info is not even worthy of a tiny violin.

@Jain@blob.cat no

@chjara@snowdin.town when u think abt it churches really are kinda like fedi

haha im not getting anything done :)
