When someone acts like a jerk on IRC then says "The internet is probably not the place for you" when called on it, they go straight on my block list. The rules of humanity are not suspended simply because the Internet is used as a communication medium.
Psst, #Fediverse dwellers. Anyone wishing to contribute?
Jason Robinson, #Socialhome developer, is calling out for help
"to make The-Federation.info more into a nice landing page for all projects. This would mean not being constrained to just following servers running the #diaspora protocol, but also including servers from #ActivityPub and #OStatus side".

Last week i was sick in bed. So as always, although i had a lot of work to do anyways, i need some entertainment. Usually i try then to play some video games.
So i finally managed to fix up my Amiga emulator. Installed hwdload, amigaos3.9 and started getting all the demos, modules and games i remember from '90s.
Ended up with over 5000 games.
Yesterday me and @antilopa finished another world.

What is Slack?
> It is IRC with a base RAM consumption of roughly 2 GB.
If you see benches designed so one can't lie on it, you know something is very wrong in that place.
There are more empty houses then #homeless people, and yet more effort is being done to 'protect' with force that those houses stay unused.
And that not enough, authorities spening energy to make it impossible for someone being homeless to lie down on a bench.
Caring more to upgrade the price of their houses, then to focus on what houses should be for.
A home for someone to live.
May I suggest that every instance administrator suspends the Instance preteengirls.biz ?
Yes, it is exactly what you can guess from the domain name.
you know what looked good? early/mid 90s amiga games. fuck.
it can be a little confusing here at first, so i hope this helps!
@YesIKnowIT Now at least we know what the "INTEL INSIDE" stood for: "INTELligence agency INSIDE your hardware"...
Netflix is everything wrong with America. They're trying to compete with sleep.

It gets on my nerves that people use WhatsApp or Signal or Threema or Telegram or whatever hip new thing they came up with for instant messaging because "it is too hard/weird to create an XMPP account".
XMPP is a protocol for federated instant messaging in case you never heard of it.
If we are already getting people to use Mastodon instead of birdsite, how about we made it really easy for instance owners to also run an XMPP server using the same credentials as Mastodon for user authentication?
Every now and then I see the argument that people shut down their XMPP server because they communicate only with a handful of people over it.
This has been the main reason to keep my XMPP server as it is a great way to hook up all kinds of people to chat with me in real time through one of the most secure e2e encryption schemes we have available today.
2-3 people's chat less on the record is still a win imho.
No greater turn off than a show off.

Thirty days has November. April, June, and September. Of twenty eight is but one. And all the rest are thirty one. Of course leap year comes and slays. Every four years got it right, and twenty eight is twenty nine.
