Since I shared a #DeviantArt link, I wanted to update you on its latest incarnation: they ran a machine learning program on their entire body of images without the artists' consent. As a result, on top of posting pictures from other websites in your name which was a common practice, you can now post pictures in your name made from other Deviants' work! #AI #ThisFuckingSucks -

Just in case someone else stumbles on my Axiom Verge (2015) post, but it can be fun for anybody else, here's an incredibly detailed #map of the game world, with 1 pixel = 1 basic block.

I finally gave up after obtaining the red coat last in the most eastern point of the map. I hate having to double-tap to dash, and the prospect of going all the way back to Goodness knows where is repellant to me. I also may have done things in a weird order so walkthroughs are useless to me at this point.
Very well made game, but I feel like they mimicked Metroid a little too much and I don't have it in me to play retro games, it's just too rough. -

TIL wealthy people are buying US public lands in a checkered fashion to prevent access to the remaining public parcels that no law forces them to maintain public access to. #ThisFuckingSucks ♲ @pzmyers@octodon.social: Can we all agree that walling off public lands for personal gain is wrong and bad?

No, you are still obsessing internally about this mildly negative social media interaction your provoked more than 24 hours later, including losing some sleep over it. -

Skrillex, reaching the apex of the dubstep genre age he helped usher, performed a final massive drop, out of relevance. -

Ok, we're keeping the link, this will remove some code which is always good. -

@Eric Shields | 🅜assTransitKrow It’s not Facebook I’m mad about, it’s TaxAct that I’ve been using the past few years, already to avoid the scammy Turbo Tax. -

Wealthy people making decision to maximize profits is bad enough but wealthy people making decisions without any intention of them being profitable is arguably worse. ♲ @BrentToderian@mastodon.online: “Elon Musk admitted to his biographer that the reason the Hyperloop was announced—even tho he had no intention of pursuing it—was to try to disrupt the California high-speed rail project to get in the way of that actually succeeding.” — #ParisMarx #Gizmodo

@Grischa Yes, but @Matthias Moritz has been working to bring public event to anonymous visitors: github.com/friendica/friendica…
And while reviewing his work I noticed this present issue. -

@Grischa Yes, but the bug was introduced more than two years ago which seems to defeat the "we are used to". I believe most Friendica users don't remember not seeing this link.
Besides, there's an additional issue: I don't know how users are supposed to access each other's public calendar without that link because no other link exists. -

@Grischa Friendica has a theme-controlled switch to display the "Calendar" link in the user profile tabs (between Media and Contacts or Personal Notes for your own profile). Both frio and vier have turned off the display per their configuration, but since October 2019 we've been ignoring these directives in favor of the default behavior which is to show the link. -

My first contact with Texas culture was assless chaps, so I was quite surprised when I subsequently learned they're raging homophobes. -

@Marek Bachmann :friendica: Yes! Open source community social culture is pretty much "do what you can on your own". Even inaccurate answers are better than no answer at all. Adding your support for new features or enhancements go a long way to motivate developers, acknowledging bug reports is good etiquette, and assisting support requests by gathering as much details as possible often helps troubleshoot the issue.
Finally, correcting existing documentation or guides or writing updated ones is absolutely stellar. -

@Andy H3 @ar.al🌻 @Yellow Flag It entirely depends on the density of the social graph, but the maximum values are scary. -

#Unicode #bidi question: Is there any reason for Right-To-Left language users to use the “#RTL override” character xE2\x80\xAE
at the end of their display name?
It’s making #Friendica ‘s notifications look funky and we're considering trimming the character from the end of display names to avoid that.
