    Oh, christ. The upcoming reCAPTCHA v3 is even more cancerous than reCAPTCHA v2. Just die already, Google. Please.

    And so it appears that #FontAwesome v5 can't be distributed with #Debian anymore because they don't provide source files and build process since their latest update. Making it a potentially non-free package.

    Because of that, some software are missing icons.

    So Free Software developers, if you want to be included in Debian and use Font Awesome, you should probably switch to #ForkAwesome. ;)

    @brandon Now that would be interesting! Would be a big societal change going from dealing with annoying drunks to annoying stoners! They'd probably be less belligerent tbh

    @retrohacker @brandon I'll have to find the article again, but this one does activate the THC and they're aiming for the dose to be similar to the amount of alcohol you'd have in a beer.

    @brandon Never tried edibles either, but I've heard they're never *that* great because of the taste. I do love IPAs though, so getting a bit high instead of tipsy would do for a change of pace :P

    @brandon I heard there are some Canadian scientists working on making weed beer that's supposed to taste like an IPA. Their hope is that having marijuana in the same setting as alcohol will help lower the stigma.

    Now that's something I would try as I never got behind the smoke aspect.

    1. An open letter
      from Loomio
      Dear fellow members, the events that unfolded over the past few days have put our cooperative to the test, and we failed miserably. Many voices calling for change were silenced in the past, be it by negligence or by sheer lack of commitment by those, whose position of privilege allowed to disregard such calls. By failing to listen, we became the people MLK warned us about: the white moderates who are more devoted to order than to justice. We wasted precious time and energy in endless debates about trivial details, calling for the creation of ever new committees and processes, and we eventually lost sight of the only true reason our cooperative came to existence: to wrestle control of our social media out of the hands of the rich, white, capitalist elite. I am writing this letter to extend my personal apologies to all the people who felt betrayed by our failure and to promise them I am here to put my energy, time, skills and reputation on the line to repair this institution and turn it into a place where they will be safe again. A place for them to call home. But promises are not enough. Words, however strong or emotional, are but empty utterances if they are not followed by swift, honest, transparent action guided by total commitment. And, with your help, I intend to trigger a new course that will shake social.coop at the foundations and turn it into something we will be proud of for years to come. First of all, I invite all those who revel in relativistic attitudes towards racism, sexism, homo/trans-phobia and any other form of bigotry to instantly leave the cooperative and never come back. You are not welcome, and you will never be. Second, I propose we close down registrations for all the time it will take us to heal our cooperative. This might sound like an aggresive move, but I believe it’s the only reasonable thing to do in this diffucult moment. A joint statement will replace our homepage for the time the instance will be closed, to inform people about our struggle to improve. Third, we will follow the advice of those fellow members who chose to weather the storm with us despite being part of those groups we failed to protect in the first place. I will not name names here, but if you have been involved in the chat, you know who I am talking about. We shall reboot the cooperative with a core group of collaborators, deliberately chosen, and not all white men. I invite all men, including myself, to take a back seat in this process unless explicitly asked by the core group. We shall make sure we have social infrastructure in place for handling conflict and abuse before launch, including a rock-solid code of conduct that will state our absolute rejection of any form of hate speech, racism, bigotry and *phobia front and center. We shall grow our core user base deliberately, in small groups, and attempt to tap more diverse networks, to combat the network effects that brought social.coop on the brink of collapse We shall make sure all the skills and resources needed to maintain the organization are in place from the start and focus on sustainability. We can never find ourselves again in the situation where a single member leaving or being overwhelmed with external responsibilities exposes the instance to the risk of downtime, poor performance or sluggish maintenance. We will make sure at least one of the core collaborators is an experienced community manager, with previous experience handling diverse, international communities across many timezones. I chose to stay because I believe we can do much, much better than we did so far, and because I am deeply committed to the idea of platform cooperativism as a means to achieve liberation, justice and equality for all. At the same time I am painfully aware that my position of absolute privilege, which I am granted under the current capitalist partiarchy, puts me at a distinct disadvantage when it comes to understading the needs of those who are oppressed by the same system. My position in the new social.coop will therefore be that of an enthusiastic contributor and ally to those who will be part of the core group and nothing more, unless explicitly asked for, as intellectual honesty demands I give up any position in which I could wield even the slightest bit of power. With respect, hope and unchanged enthusiasm, MK EDIT 02/09/18: replaced "take the instance off-line" with "close down registrations" as many members reported it was misleading and suggested we were going to shut down completely.

    I feel like there are so many things I want to get to that I won't have time to start messing around with.

    Mostly with self-hosting the following:
    * Static blob with Pelican
    * FreshRSS
    * Gitea
    * Pleroma
    * XMPP

    Mastercard is selling anonymized data collected from users' purchases.

    If you own a mastercard or maestro card you can opt out here: https://www.mastercard.us/en-us/about-mastercard/what-we-do/privacy/data-analytics-opt-out.html

    The wording is confusing, as it sounds like you are deactivating anonymization, but the page title is "Data Analytics Opt-Out". It must be Mastercard final attempt at preventing you from doing it.

    It's fucked up that the web is just okay with propping up google's hegemony over the web and allowing google to abuse the web's labor with reCAPTCHA.

    In the past you could say that there was a true cultural benefit as it was scanning books and old newsprint prior to Google acquiring the company behind the tech and quickly abusing it to train their self driving car models.

    Finding out new vim keybindings by accident is a great feeling.

    The '.' key will paste the last text you inserted!

    @codesections I do like the plaintext feel, makes it simple and easy to parse. But then again, emoji are here and those are illegible without support.

    It also irks me that markdown is considered "difficult" and most mainstream sites either don't have it or disable it when they get more popular. I get that it can seem geeky, but it's so easy to grasp that it shouldn't be shunned so much. At least give an option! :P

    Now for regex... that can be confusing but I'd be nice as an option again

    #Pleroma having support for Markdown is yet another reason pushing me to self-hosting my own instance.

    Maybe once the internet at my home works again I'll look into it :P
