    @izzy right? I get why these weren't popular when they came out (expensive, no clearly defined purpose, etc.) but now that they can be had cheap second hand I'm always surprised I don't see more of them! (or any of the CB range, for that matter, I feel like I only ever see CBRs)

    @izzy I was actually looking for a CB300 or 500 when I got this, but this was the only thing on Craigslist at the time that met the bill and I got super lucky and got it *really* cheap. Ended up doing 90% highway commuting with it, so it worked out (heavy enough not to be blown around, but not a 900lb Harley Fatboy or whatever where I feel like I'm riding a boat). I've never even heard of the 400SF, that really does look like it would be the perfect size!

    I had completely forgotten that there is a a Star Trek episode from the early 2000's where the doctor finds out that an insurance executive is rationing healthcare so he poisons him and holds him hostage until he agrees to treat the poor patients. Then he feels bad and tells Seven that he did something unethical and she literally tells him that it seems perfectly ethical and not to worry about it.

    @ghostdancer @clacke I had a similar feeling with "Raised by Wolves". I absolutely loved it at first, but after a while it felt like too much setup for too little payoff, which was sad because the first season was a lot of fun. I still really enjoyed it though, but I get why they canceled it.

    @ghostdancer @clacke was coming to say the same thing. Scavengers Reign is like if Raised By Wolves had been written by Adrian Tchaikovsky and it was amazing.

    @cwebber I feel that. Mine is normally "why is Vim freaking out" and it's almost always "somehow caps lock got turned on"

    I gave myself a dedicated "Picard" button that I can reach over and hit any time a company tries to make me use their new LLM.

    Got one half of my tape deck working (and it's the recording side!) using extremely precise and carefully calibrated percussive maintenance (the motor relay was stuck, so I whacked it). Now listening to an old CrO2 tape that my dad apparently recorded at some point. The labels are clearly typed out with a type writer!

    @flancian @edumerco @edsu @Matt_Noyes @mako @ntnsndr @dazinism I'd like to push back on "why not" as a reason to do anything. More specifically, I think we'll have different requirements depending on if this is for all users or just for a few working groups to use (I suspect if it's for all social.coop members as a service those requirements will be a superset of the requirements for if it's just us). We should decide what we want to do here and have a good reason for it up front IMO.

    Okay fedi! A friend just brought up the idea of having a mutual-aid bicycle repair fund. Donations to it would be set aside to pay for repairs if someone couldn't afford it. I've seen this in coffee shops, but is this something other bike shops do? Is it only valid for some things and not others? Do you need to setup a separate entity for tax reasons? How do you manage such a thing? I'm very over-excited by this idea, and can't believe I've never even considered it! Ideas and suggestions please!

    Finally broke down and got on Discord. It's every bit as trash I as I remembered, and I feel vaguely gross ethically, but I've just got to keep remembering that you have to meet the community where it's at and I can't selfishly expect the community to change just for me. The work of organizing is more important than my dislike of the tools that don't match our values.

    That being said, I will be limiting my use to #IWW business only and will *not* be joining "just for fun" discord servers.

    Update: Discord was even worse than I imagined and I deleted it again, but at least I can say I gave it a fair shot. I get that I'll never actually be helpful to any group because of this, but why in the world is anyone on this capitalist hellscape of a messenger?

    Has there ever been a situation where the small community network allows the bigger commercial network to bridge, interface, etc. and it has resulted in the smaller community network growing and becoming a viable alternative the commercial one? I feel like I get in this argument every few weeks on fedi, and, to my knowledge, there are literally no examples of this happening ever. But I do want to be fair if I'm just wrong and they exist.

    • Phil (ascentale)

    @moira @ascentale for my part, I take the exact opposite stance: I suspect cross posting does the opposite and creates serious harm for the people of the fediverse by creating "too big to fail" instances that can't be moderated appropriately, and providing them with a path to embrace-extend-extinguish us. I'm strongly against bridges to corporate social media in general and would caution us from defaulting to assuming they're helpful. That said, I also have no proof that they're doing this here.

    @tim @arnoldboer somewhere in the depths of my feed I have a post where I was thinking something similar. How this would be organized is an interesting question; would it be a union of anybody against AI? A union of users of a specific service? A union of users who agree to use some version of open source and pressure companies to open source stuff or pay for the open source they use by getting employee unions to coordinate with them?

    @ATLeagle now that's a new years tradition I can get behind! Maybe I'll walk over to WaHo instead of boiling these black eyed peas (I'm all about the collards and corn bread, but black eyed peas were always my least favorite pea…)
