“One core difference between the fediverse and the AT Protocol seems to be that AT decouples many key building blocks – identity, moderation, ranking algorithms, even your own data to some degree – from your server. The fediverse, on the other hand, ties them all to your server and sees that as a desirable feature.” —

This is 100% spot on: https://snarfed.org/2023-05-04_50157
This pathological payment pattern I can't wrap my head around why it exists, because it just happened with STRIPE, who should know better: 1) default method is expired and has failed, 2) add new method, charge goes through, 3) expired payment method is still default, fails next time.
Uh oh
One of my musts for any next president is the full prosecution for war crimes for any armed servicemember that follows illegal orders to participate in extrajudicial murder.

Sen. Mark Kelly: ‘No’ I wouldn...
🧵 A few months ago, my best friend told me about this idea about remaking Clue (the 1985 film) but with Muppets. She’d already scribbled some notes with characters, but I insisted that we fully develop this re-cast in a way that would be Correct to both the Muppet characters and the cult film. I rewatched the film myself, we collaborated in a shared note, let it simmer for a bit, then the other night we got high again and rewatched it together to validate (and tweak) our choices.

Malá nedělní zajímavost -
Kapky prince Ruperta
Jde o vědeckou kuriozitu nejméně ze 17. století. Vyrábí se kápnutím roztaveného skla do studené vody.
Hlavička vydrží údery kladiva i výstřel kulky menší ráže. Narušením tenkého konce se ovšem celá za milisekundu rozsype na prach.
NixOS 25.11 has been released! 🎉

The #northernlights gallery has switched for a limited time to a #plushtodon gallery.
Very happy to give a sneak peek into the latest developments of LILA, the decentralized Nix reproducibility tool developed by 
@raboof and me!
We know have a ✨user friendly interface✨, where you can see reproducibility reports published by trusted rebuilders!

"podcasting"? the only casting i need is my fishing line. the only streaming i need is the local river. my onlyfans are mounted to the dang ceiling. my web site is in the corner of my shed and my "net" is for catching tuna. the only vee-tuber i know is the weirdly shaped tater i grew last year

All by virtue of soft-ware and hard-ware, implemented with semi-conductors and formerly thermo-ionics. Bless electro-magnetism!

NWS has two scenarios for Tuesday. One means mainly rain on the coastal plain. But the other shows a more than chance probability we could get whacked with 6 inches in the Greater French Toast Area. Frankly, we're no longer used to large amounts of snow, so we're getting vexed - and raising the alert to 3 Slices.

It's our birthday today. 🎉
Two years ago today, we filed the paperwork for Mirlo to officially become a legal entity. We're so grateful and humbled by everyone who has contributed to the experiment since then. Here's to many more years making music together on the internet! 🐦⬛🐸🎺

I understand why some creators, including myself, don't leave #YouTube. However it's *vital* now more than ever to also make yourself a #PeerTube server. You need an accurate archive of your work that YOU control, even if no one watches it there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrwJgDHJJoE
Seriously, what's up with this on 
@github's packages UI?
There's clearly a latest version, and it's not the one that is highlighted under "installation", but rather the version tagged "latest"
