@tk have you tried Bang? it's zero-cal and the flavors are better than any other i've ever tried
@HighlandArrow this is not only easily falsifiable, it's false. i get that the anti-cryptocurrency zealots are, well, both anti-cryptocurrency and zealots, but why with the very plainly objectively false claims of fact?
i really like that several of the best things i liked on twitter and reddit are now mirrored by bots into fedi, specifically
@foone and @it_meirl_bot
@tk runs a pretty good instance over there! i especially like the amber phosphor color scheme. <3
@treztrez i think it's insane that an instance admin can unilaterally decide for thousands of instance users that they can't follow/read/see certain content. if you don't like a user you should mute/block them from your own account, you should not silently prevent users on your instance from ever being able to read them. (it also has the side effect of meaning i can't follow anyone on a hugely popular instance)
@treztrez he doesn't like that i think that defederation is not a good tool for moderation. i followed like 4-5 people on his instance (of 17k users) and he flipped out and decided i was a stalker or something. (note that when i was on birdsite i followed over 10k users)
ugh, i keep my apps in ~/Applications so as to keep the systemwide /Applications not needed to be backed up. Then I just back up $HOME/. The problem is if I exclude $HOME from spotlight indexing, it won't let me command-space launch apps in ~/Applications. I'd happily make an /Applications.mine or something but you can't make directories in the root of osx anymore because the root is readonly and all user data is on an overlay fs.
@dlb funny but false premise: all high value content via legal channels still comes with more DRM than ever, same as in 1999.
hooking up displays to a mac is sort of a pain in the ass. despite adopting usbc for laptops, pcs still don't use usbc for high res desktop displays. i have 3x 4k hooked up to a pc with displayport, hooking them up to my 16" m1max rmbp would use up all of the i/o i think? maybe i can do two with displayport to c adapters then maybe the hdmi will do 4k@60hz and i can just switch the third monitor's input?
@cnx never tried, i only play a very small number of fpses. that's a meme tho right?
@treztrez instance admins can still declare themselves king of everyone who trusts them not to censor their media. you have to pick a good instance, or run your own.
@vidister you must really love that model to put up with a (factory) non-type-c laptop
