At last, I've found a meme that does *not* apply to my experience of entering 2021.
Here's to a new year.
At last, I've found a meme that does *not* apply to my experience of entering 2021.
Here's to a new year.
I am looking forward to seeing a mini-explosion of new #matrix users.
🤷
I've found that if I ask someone to "switch to matrix", we have a big conversation about "best" platforms and other tinfoil hat things which, while enjoyable to me, turn off normal people.
If I send them a matrix.to link with no explanation other than "so you can have a conversation with me," they join up.
Likely so. I've been here long enough to get comfortable with it, but these tools are seldom what a person used to mainstream platforms would call intuitive.
That we need an analogy to explain decentralization, for example, is both telling and worrisome.
"It's like email"
"Then why don't we just use gmail?"
*sigh*
agreed.
Another list of reasons to look forward to the new year:
Any idea how big the dl of mp3s is?
I'll randomly sample in the meantime. :)
An amazing find. If you figure out how to grab just the mp3s, please share!
@lohang Have you checked out keyoxide.org as an alternative?
People keep telling me that computers can't think, and yet they seem to respond directly to threats like these...
Can you qualify what you mean by non-tech savvy?
Depending on the strictness of that definition, I qualify and love the simplicity of plain text.
Even better: I was interviewed about it.

A new one for me... Thank you for the introduction!
Vey?
vi/vim pronouns...hmmmmmmm.
A reminder to all creative people:
If the RIAA's recent actions have reminded us of anything, it's that you cannot guarantee you have a copy of any of your work unless you have backups of it on your own system.
The 'cloud' is someone else's computer, and there is ample evidence that the someone else who owns that computer does not care at all about the hours of passion you've poured into things you make.
Act accordingly.
Enjoying listening to Hackers.Town radio while working on computer-y things. Feels thematically appropriate.
Incidentally, it's also especially weird to hear yourself do radio spots periodically.
I've been described by reliable sources as a zen fool, benevolent super villain, misanthropic community leader, clown father figure and Impish Cabaret Rasputin.
