My wife: "Starting to see a lot of good houses in our price range."
Me: "Yeah, but there's really no rush to buy, things are not going well economically-"
*five minutes of me babbling about household debt, interest rates, and the Bank of Canada*
"-2008 all over again."
Wife: "Honestly, that all just sounded like static to me. But ok."

Brutaldon is good. Django server that run a completely stripped down, JS free mastodon UI.

@ink_slinger I can't think of anything more anarchist than starting a Kickstarter, then making it free to print.

This weekend I got a report on the state-of-the-art of exclusive underground p2p sites and I gotta say, if you're looking for the non-depressing cyberpunk future present, that's where it's at

@zigg Might also check out the Pygame library for Python, or look into Minecraft modding.

@xvu Its a habit, and takes practice. The most important thing is that you're aware of it and trying to improve.
If you're interested and in the KW area soon, let me know and I'll buy you a beer. 🍻

@thor In my experience, every time some someone says, "we only do things the X way", where X is a group, company, or nation, its wildly stupid and ineffective strategy papering over more fundamental organizational flaws.
In this case, American hypercapitalism.

"On a Saturday...a group of Toronto-area residents posed as local voters at a candidate nomination meeting in Ottawa. The next day, the power broker who led the journey was working at another vote in Hamilton, where a printer secretly churned out fake identity papers."
Add in the fake news and race-baiting, why the fuck would anyone ever vote for these people?

Okay, I just came up with a great hashtag for the fediverse, regarding #FollowFriday, also known as #FF.
🐻 Bear with me, while I explain why it's so good, and why it will stick.
It's been suggested that we need a #fediverse specific ff-hashtag, but nothing interesting ever came out of it.
Today I saw #FFOS (Follow Friday on Saturday), and I was like, what if, instead of forgetting, we could do it every day, and #FFED was born. Follow-Fediverse, and Follow-Friday Every Day, rolled into one.

Google can now be unapologetically evil in the US, but in Canada, they have to be apologetically evil.

> "Well, [Centralized Platform] is a business and can run how they want. It's not censorship if they simply decide not to serve you!"
Ok fair. Tell me again how your "it's not censorship since they aren't the government" argument operates in a society where the commons is being systematically walled off and aggressively captured by business interests with monopolistic practices? Organizations who end up taking on the role of private police forces governing what once used to be a public area?
