Meep :3
They/Them, also “It” when a critter I like is being cute ior affectionate about it :3 Very cute, but also weird and sometimes kinda sharp
Hates this world, hates being stuck in it. Needs rescuing, needs understanding. Not happening. Only misery and extension of said misery happening.

  • (I’m just yapping and nitpicking the OP pic, don’t mind me unless you’re bored I guess 😅 )

    A bunch of stuff I don’t recognize even with the name on it, lots of stuff that’s just the name itself. Visa’s in there twice. Bleh! Could’ve done better, I think.

    That said, complaining that most people recognize more corporations than plants because we all hate nature and love corps is kinda ridiculous. I agree that humans generally are far too friendly to capitalism but recognizing, firstly, what’s present in the environment and secondly, threats present in the environment are important parts of human development. 80% of USians live in urban areas. I doubt this number is that much lower anywhere else the creator of that image would be complaining about. Which has more representation in urban areas: corporate logos or species of plants? Which is easier to learn the name of? (Hint: the pic in the OP shows numerous logos with company names in them)

    I’m imagining a person comes by spraying herbicide and this person’s upset that I know the brand of the sprayer better than the plants that don’t grow where it goes.


  • Very agree here. Less and less is actually GNU, so by what metric do we have to include things? “GNU is an OS?” I’m running two at once? No, it’s three, some of this software comes from BSD. Or is it more? Maybe I’ve got tools developed on/from/for other OSes still! Hell, I’ve got Windows software on this system. Gotta tell everybody I’m running GNU and Linux and BSD and Windows and (…) 🤦

    This naming “debate” is absurd.

    Edit: I meant to say, it’s really getting too late to push the naming issue as a means of making people recognize how much of “Linux” is GNU, considering the connections are decreasing. Even the kernel builds with clang these days, GNU tools and libs get replaced… I don’t know that I’m happy about this, but it seems plausible (at a casual glance from a non-expert observer) that GNU’s practically on its way out. On the other paw, I’ll be glad to never hear about this naming “issue” again if everything GNU gets buried.












  • Sounds super cool :o … Am still kinda salty about M$ blocking my account and holding my copy of Minecraft (that I paid Mojang for, well before it was Microsoft’s!) hostage because they want my phone number, though. 😠

    … Also I kinda wanna know if it’s got the moddage I love about Minecraft, but am afraid to ask because I’m stuck on a laptop that can’t really run much without getting all melty 😅



  • Only connections under five bits per second? Whew, where do you even get one! Seems near useless… ;P I assume that’s some kinda typo, at the least.

    Kinda curious about the tech, though. If it’s not bullshit it could be interesting. … Though how they’re gonna do much at five bits per second… gonna fill up a ton of memory quick unless it’s just for tiny messages and load-balances very well. Actually, this just smells worse and worse as I think about it. Hmmmmm. Will have to poke my snoot in there when I get home. 🤔


  • [Very sarcasm] Noooo, don’t feed the poors hot food! They’ll, uhh, Idunno, it’s like feeding gremlins after midnight or something! Probably!

    So I just got my EBT card and I’ma go use it tomorrow. Will hopefully get to have some variety and even snacks! Woo! Hopefully the cash assistance thingle comes through too or I’ma get scared again 😅 😰 … Dunno why I’m saying any of this here. Hi! Hello. It’s good that somecritters are working around dickish law :3
