finally getting more time off from work versus the 60-70 hour weeks i was pulling before, so i started participating in a game jam and trying to have a presence on fedi again.

There is no should or shouldn’t, they’ve always had and been entitled to that choice. People who develop and host those platforms can make whatever choice they want.
ActivityPub/the Fediverse is only a protocol. If you philosophically disagree with how a platform makes use of that protocol, then you can (theoretically) just use another platform.
not so hot because things are tense around my house, but i’m moving out towards the end of the week so hopefully it’ll be over soon.
Genuine question: what happened last time?
Yup! If the software supports it, instance admins can usually add relays from their control panel.
It does work that way, but Mastodon and some other microblogging software like Firefish (fka Calckey), Pleroma, etc. can also use relays to populate their federated timelines.
What’re they mad about? 🤔
What an audacious request. I hope it’ll be rejected — this just has “bad idea” written all over it.
Respectfully, how on earth did this design get cleared? 😭
Cloaks are really a cool idea and I miss them, not that I was ever alive for them being en vogue haha
A great look despite the obvious hazard of them getting caught on things
omg happy belated birthday!! 🤠🥳
i give my week a 4/5, been busy the past few days trying to set up a Firefish instance with my partner which has been just awesome and i’m super excited to open it up and get people on it! rly inspired by beehaw’s community-building style.
in less awesome news i’m moving back home at the end of the week and i’m not looking forward to it. moving is so stressful and i don’t want to be back home with my dad either lol.
If you are commenting in a Beehaw community, yes, you are using Beehaw. Please be nice in our communities – it’s the one rule we have, and by posting/commenting here, you’re subject to that rule. If you don’t want to do that, you’re more than welcome to find other communities and instances to participate on.
thank you for your service chris 🫡 you are a pillar of this community
I’m surprised to hear that anyone would complain about this with C. Even the Wikipedia page about encapsulation cites C as a non-OOP language example.
Respectfully, I just don’t think this is the right post for this kind of humor.
The cake looks beautiful! I love how the intentional misspelling pairs with how y’all nailed just about every other aspect of the cake. Hope it tastes as good as it looks 😊
lemmy.blahaj.zone might have some of what you’re looking for. Not sure if they offer anything specifically filling the same niche as r/me_irlgbt, but I used to be subscribed to [email protected]. (Overloaded my feed though sadly so that’s why I unsubbed.)
Houseless people are suffering through some of the most dire consequences of living in our capitalist hellscape (which is itself built by wealthy people many of whose wealth is ill-gotten through lying, swindling, and other exploitation). They don’t have proper shelter, many deal with food insecurity, many are just desperate to have some kind of stable life or just have someone treat them like an equal, like a fellow human.
They shouldn’t have to jump through hoops, prove themselves to be the “good” type, perform some kind of perfect victimhood, or pose as saints for us - and, being real, many of us are only one emergency away from also becoming houseless - so that we can pass what fickle judgment we have and decide they’re worthy of aid and assistance. We don’t really have the capacity to judge them off a small, often one-time interaction, and even if we did, what kind of message is that? “I’ll give you five dollars, but only if you do a little song and dance and show me that you applied for a job”?
Frankly, people deserve housing and food, no matter their moral character; houseless people shouldn’t have to demonstrate their character to us in order to deserve even a small parcel of what we’re fortunate enough to have. It takes some arrogance and lack of compassion on our part to expect that of them, especially when many of us with housing aren’t exactly saints either. Given the messaging we get from society, I understand some of the misgivings people might have, but still. Most people in general shouldn’t have to do anything special to be worthy of our kindness.
