I use xmonad and won’t switch until there’s a viable alternative (probably never).

Remove the subsidies on agricultural products that get sprayed with glyphosate to increase yield. Corn, wheat, and potatoes in this country are poison because of the chemicals they spray them with…then they go and put that tainted product into sugars like HCFS.

cool. I probably wouldn’t have started this community had I been able to find it in a search.

Could you possibly link it? Even knowing it exists, I am STILL unable to find it in a search even when I search from my kbin account.

KBin’s cool and all (might even end up being better than lemmy in the long run) but it is in a WAY earlier stage of dev than Lemmy and it shows.

Capitalism turns anyone into a fucking soulless ghoul.

Blue in Green

written by Mr. Bill Evans

It is not only the absolute best track on Kind of Blue, it is also the most beautiful, cathartic song in all of jazz history, IMO.

It’s the ‘Claire De Lune’ of Jazz!

Randonneuring

long-distance unsupported endurance cycling. This style of riding is non-competitive in nature, and self-sufficiency is paramount. When riders participate in randonneuring events, they are part of a long tradition that goes back to the beginning of the sport of cycling in France and Italy.

shouldn’t be be required to use a cloud service in order to use a piece of hardware that you bought and paid for.

of course. I didn’t really insinuate that it should.

But surely, a 3D printer could/can. It’s just that the software that runs on it shouldn’t have shit security and there should be multiple safeguards and redundant fail-safe systems.

I can’t wait to hear what noises Fredrik makes on Special Defects 2.0 from his studio in Sweden.

This title is very misleading. Actually Argentina voted in a presidential primary, and one candidate who advocates dollarisation got 31.57% of the vote.

iPhone 14 Pro w/ iOS 17 developer beta.

Honestly, if NixOS ever comes to a phone in any real way, I’ll probably eventually switch.

iOS is solid as hell compared to Android, IMO and I have a love- hate relationship with swift; wish I could use Haskell for a native iPhone app.

I have MPV setup to play any YouTube link when I press ctrl cmd m with a YouTube video url in my clipboard.

I did this with /r/Cardano mods back before Reddit was blocking all mention of the fediverse even in PM’s. I managed to get one of them to help mod my Cardano communities. I’d wager that it’s exceedingly hard to get in touch with mods over there now that Huffman is blocking fediverse recruitment.

It’s hard to find instances that offer what world offers, so I get it.

OTOH, I ended up moving or handing over most of my communities that I had created on world because this instance is TOO popular and bogged down all the time. Plus, they make arbitrary and drastic decisions without discussion on matters like defederation and often banning. It’s smart to go to a smaller instance but it’s also risky because any instance could go down at any moment. That’s why many of my communities are duplicated (across world and infosec) because it would be devastating to lose all of those quality links and engagement.
