The happiest kids in the world have social safety nets. “In a country like the Netherlands where parents like my sister receive ample parental leave, childcare stipends, a four-day work week, and universal healthcare, the low-level anxiety that many American parents feel isn’t as common.” mother.ly/parenting/social-saf…

it is also important we teach kids that the outside world is not their enemy. Japanese kids are taught that if they have a problem they should ask any adult. In contrast, we spend our time telling our kids to beware of strangers because they are nasty. Leaving aside the fact that a child doesn’t make a distinction between people they know and people they don’t, it is terrible to bring children up believing the world is evil.

I really like the setting, writing and visuals. Just couldn't get into the gameplay, sadly. Maybe this time around...

I asked DALL-E to draw me a flowchart that explained how to make a decision. Look closely. This is spot on.

Paradox confirm no Linux support for Prison Architect 2 but investigating Steam Deck gamingonlinux.com/2024/02/para…

It's completely anecdotal, I know, but:
Last time I tried playing Stanley Parable, the 'native' Linux version just did not run for me.
Running the windows version using Proton, it ran flawlessly.
Basically, Proton is great, not sure why people have issues with "oh but it's not native so bla bla"

#noretr because i accidentally retranslated thing i already drafted



Ranting About The GNOME Desktop #Linux youtu.be/liPLDWro7QQ


excited about our upcoming CHI paper [PDF being finalized soon] ... it turns out that programmers often draw a wide variety of ASCII diagrams in their code as a form of documentation and knowledge-sharing ... they're inline, checked-in with version control, stays with their code, and can express ideas that are hard to do in text alone



authy just moved their desktop app EOL date forward - authy desktop will cease to function on the 19th of march!

they have no official way of exporting your data (of course 🙃), but there's an unofficial tool for getting your data out. i'll probably move to keepassXC to prevent something like this from happening again

Remember the new @mozilla CEO whose first action was to post a link to her Linkedin profile?

Some said I was harsh that we should let her the benefit of doubt.

So here are the first true actions: firing 60 people working on useless products to focus the company on its true mission.

The useless products?
- Relay (privacy, protection against spam)
- VPN (privacy)
- Mozilla.social (Mastodon)
- Monitor (privacy)

True mission to focus:
- AI (???)

You can’t made that up

currently writing a mastodon bot thing in rust using megalodon

it is... a very okay API wrapper. for some reason it takes ownership of everything you pass into it in every API call, so you have to constantly clone string parameters, which is very much not in the vibe of rust.

i found elefren, which has a much nicer design and properly supports pagination (unlike megalodon), but it hasn't been updated in three years, and the upstream repo was deleted, so i can't really use that

i miss mastodon.py :blobsob:

ok so apparently wasabi says you shouldn't use them if your egress exceeds your stored file size, and that if it does, they reserve the right to "suspend your service" (?!)

but they also provide no way to check your egress on the dashboard

so i looked up how to check, and found this: knowledgebase.wasabi.com/hc/en…

what the fuck, wasabi

in reply to Lynnesbian

is there any reason to use wasabi over backblaze?
just curious to hear experiences :neocat_cute:
in reply to december flower

@likeazir back when i set my instance up, almost everyone who was self-hosting ended up going with wasabi because they were really cheap

looking at backblaze's website, they seem to be about the same price as wasabi was back then, so either they used to cost more, or people just didn't know about them, which seems unlikely given how big a name they are

who knows :blobcatgooglyshrug:
