Love Heather Cox Richardson’s essays! I wish more people read her work! Maybe we wouldn’t be where we are today…


New instance, time for an #introduction !

Hello 👋🏼 I'm Juan Luis (he/him/él), everybody calls me Juanlu. I've been on Mastodon since 2021 fosstodon.org/@astrojuanlu/105…

I work as Product Manager for an #OpenSource project and have 10+ years of o̶b̶s̶e̶s̶s̶i̶o̶n̶ experience with the #Python ecosystem. I'm interested in #Degrowth, #Cooperatives, the #SolidarityEconomy, and anything that can offer an alternative to capitalism. You'll see occasional posts about #techno, #birds, and rants in Spanish.




I finished up my "Red Star" Soviet starship, personal project, when I should have been working on stuff for customers.

@Nick Stevens Graphics This looks good, but I can't help but think it could have been made more striking with five fuel pods instead of four, to emulate the five-branch star pattern.

That's perfectly normal @Gary Hill the mainstream media never want the general public to know the real truth. Luckily there are some people who are aware of the truth and tell others and not everyone rejects the truth thank God..... The mainstream media are sharing information everywhere about evil Hamas Muslims, who are supposed to be Palestinian people attacking everyone, when I have read that Hamas was created by the Israeli Zionists.... each one to believe whatever the mainstream media publishes, or they do their own investigation, it's up to them.

“I genuinely believe Oasis are the most damaging pop-cultural force in recent British history. It’s easy to attack them for being musically regressive: after all, they didn’t just Stop The Clocks, to quote the title of their 2006 best-of, but rewound them by 30 years. But the real problem is that they set social attitudes back even further.

It’s no coincidence that Oasis are the band of choice for flag-shaggers and Reform voters”

I remember when Noel slagged Jay-Z off ahead of his Glastonbury appearance in 2008, who dissed him on stage and went on to deliver the best performance at that year's festival. Then when Oasis split up the following year, Jay-Z joked that he wanted to collaborate with Liam (clashmusic.com/news/jay-z-oasi…)

@unknown8bit @olleolleolle It does deliver a rather cathartic barrage of brilliantly bristly burns.

Ren slump att färgerna på Grüntek trädgårdsredskap matchar de på Chuckit hundleksaker.

They aren't actually doing any worse on their inspections than average, but all the inspectors agreed that they'd like to continue being bribed.




Heather Cox Richardson notes that she normally takes Saturday night off from her magisterial commentary, but this Saturday, she has chosen to comment on how bonkers Trump is becoming and was in his beyond-crazy speech in Wisconsin yesterday, with wild, reality-oblivious claims that Democrats are murdering newborns and children are going to school and coming home with sex-change operations performed on them.

Artist Chelo depicts what we see - and what we don't see - on social media. I like the full-circle nature of this comic.

Another comic by Chelo caught my eye. How we present ourselves to others on social media vs offline. #art /2

You Can't Join Mastodon

I think a concerted effort to change how we talk about "Mastodon" would benefit the Fediverse as a whole, as well as the Mastodon project, by clarifying responsibility, setting more realistic expectations, and allowing for concrete answers where currently there is a lot of hand waving.

I was trying all sorts of solutions to run #android on #linux (without #wayland, so no #waydroid) and it turns out it's easier to just connect a real device and use #adb #scrcpy...

@freechelmi still can't get #nvidia to play nice with #wayland on #ubuntu. I simply get no 3D acceleration (no gpu detected) when I try to run on wayland. So I can't use #steam and I can't use #blender/#godot both of which I need for my job. I really wish I could switch though.

Dankeschön! Die Intervallaufnahmefunktion der Kamera hat vor Ort alles gemacht außer 90 Minuten Däumchendrehen. Und Batch Processing der RAWs und Stacking in Sequator geht auch in einer Kaffeepause. Was 3h ätzendste Handarbeit war: Aus jeder verdammten Einzelaufnahme die Flugzeug- und Satellitenspuren entfernen.
