@sun I've had a damn ebay account for close to 30 years 🦶⤵️🪦

@sun thank you for being you, dude

hey, I can vouch for this guy's mutual aid request, he is a friend of mine currently having a real rough time:

https://fedi.jrlenz.net/@ralf/113773470502476448

I could only send $5 due to Paypal reasons which is below the minimum for him to move it out and buy a meal or similar, if anybody can drop him even say $10 more it will make a big difference.

as somebody who is in part safe & warm today due to fedi generosity, thank you all!

@strypey yeah, I mean @element should probably focus on shipping products that work properly, don't have dogshit UX, and don't take a nuclear powered data center rack to run once there are more than 5 users

I hear they're getting closer to some of the above (after a LOT of work), so that's good, but maybe get a little further before spending time on making such posts

@sun watching this, even from a distance, has been glorious

@sun still trying to purge feelings on such which were instilled upon seeing that Rivendell scene (on a CRT television, god damn how is it one quarter thru the 21st century right now)

@sun she is a horse girl and about as far a distance from cute as can be imagined, at least dispositionally

man I'm catty today

@sun if I introduced you to my biological half-sister, it would cure you of this illusion for ten lifetimes

@sun a youtuber whose delivery I dislike but who makes decent science content, kind of like Anton Petrov

@sun oh wait duh, nm I run a pruned node. still gonna check it tho

@sun wait what the fuck? was there a sudden increase in size?

@sun dammit I opened this thread hoping to read about Greta

@sun when I was a kid my mother subscribed to Uptime, a monthly "magazine" distributed on floppy disk, 360KB DS/DD in our case. it was annoying to try to get the software off it bc they used a special compressed format + loader.

@sun @faoluin @Nudhul I remember yelling at the TV that day about all the shit that was gonna happen (and did in fact happen) for like 5 hours with one of my very good politically-aware friends

@sun good to know you'll be updating it because I saved a pdf print of the original in case it disappeared

I've become a digital pack rat after having far too many online things disappear

@sun @rysiek I am begging you (or anybody) to make a less shitty frontend than all the ones we have

this prompts me, today might be a good day to *finally* make use of that document you created and set up the surfhosted instance so I can finally get this account off Mastodon

@sun it's a massive impediment to us tumblr draftposter transplants, I actually have never run into the issue @rysiek mentions

the one guy upthread is correct tho, every open tab counts against the rate limit

@rysiek mastodon's rate limiting is the dumbest implementation of such that I've ever encountered. it's atrocious

@nyanide @sun

what disappoints me most is that TAILS OS uses it, although at least theirs is quirky ones of users secretly communicating with each other while camping

@sun @lanodan I watch a ton of sci/tech/engineering/maker stuff and a couple creators happened to share their (reported by youtube itself I guess) gender split over the years, ~98% male
