Btw, #alpinelinux is not primarily a container #linux distro. It even predates #docker by some years. It's a general-purpose #distro that happens to be well-suited for #containers because it's small, safe, fast and efficient. It makes a great host os for (not only low-powered) servers (#raspberrypi!) and it's also well-suited as a base for desktops.

"muslo" would also work, but I've not an abiding interest in the subject.

so apparently there's an official commodore linux distro?

this is certainly a desktop... honestly kind of confusing to me that they decided to go with a 2000's era looking desktop instead of something more 80's inspired? they probably could have riced it to look like amigaOS or GEOS or something







Ohio’s Secretary of State, Frank LaRose, helped craft the ballot language for Issue 1, redistricting reform — language some voters are saying is so confusing that they accidentally voted against a measure they intended to support.

in reply to BoltsMag.org

the political signs and commercials clear things up. Trump supporters have vote no on issue 1 and the commercials say that Trump wants us to vote no on issue 1. Reading the actual ballot issues when you are in the voting booth is the wrong time to first hear about the issue. They are deliberately written to confuse the reader.


Dark Brandon is the best. #Biden has no more f’s left to give.

Ticker-tape synaesthesia – when real life comes with subtitles


in reply to ToastedPlanet

For some, it might feel as though their mind is mimicking the physical act of writing the word, a phenomenon known as motor imagery. “Some might notice typing words on a phone or a computer keyboard,” says Price.


I have this, really interesting to know there is a term for it. Actually, “had” is more accurate, as it slowly diminished over the years and has essentially gone away now, probably stopped happening in my mid 20s or so. Sometimes it was handwriting, but usually QWERTY keyboard typing or even T9 dumbphone typing.

Also experienced other mild forms of synaesthesia too, but those are gone now as well. Kinda miss it sometimes. Being a kid was kinda magical.

in reply to FrostyCaveman

Fellow synaesthete here but color grapheme, not the type of the article. May I ask what's your approx age now? I've also noticed a mild decline in my own, but it's still there. I'm in my mid 30s.
in reply to Mothra

I’m early 30s now. Interesting yours is still there. I also previously experienced color grapheme synaesthesia (more specifically just numbers which were coloured) but that went away by the time I was about 12.


Me flopped on floor having brutal pain day. Boy spending all his time with me. Again.

Bless his little dark grey socks.

Love the new PFP and banner image.

Floofs are such a wonderful comfort. 💗



“That’s driven by the strength of independent women, who back Harris by a 28-point margin.”

“[S]enior women support her by a more than 2-to-1 margin, 63% to 28%.”

Women don’t forget fighting for our rights just because we’re not having kids.

“Kamala #Harris will make a surprise appearance during this week’s episode of “Saturday Night Live,” an insider exclusively told The Post.

Harris will appear during the show’s traditional, politics-skewing cold open, the tipster said.” #SNL

@bodhidave Everyone has. AP posted an alert, but when I linked over, it didn’t have the info which was weird. So I Googled and came up with the Post. Right after that, it broke everywhere.

This is gonna drive Trump insane. Is he rage-tweeting already?

[android; help] custom unexpected keyboard layout

in reply to birdcat

also what fucking cancer is github? apparently my account is "flagged". i literary made one single "issue" before where simply i asked how to donate. now this trash company needs my phone number to allow me to contact the support or delete my account lol.

anyway, if anyone has an account there, would be cool of you to comment the following (or something similar) on this issue:

I agree that it's a bit useless right now, but please consider removing it. Because auto-repetitions with a (custom) limit would be super cool. Certain languages contain countless words with double letters.
Simple example: typing the word better equals touching the display 6 times. With the feature "key repeat on long press until the character is typed 2 times" it would just be 5 times.

Often you can circumvent that by creating a TOTP if you can still log in. Worked on discord and google account for me
in reply to mathemachristian [he/him]

yea, i saw i need to enable 2fa it to contact the support, then i set up TOTP and a passkey. but they still "needed" a phone number for "my security". and then even "needed" a phone number to contact support to ask them to delete my account, absolutely idiotic. had no idea that gituhub is so shitty cuz all the open source stuff is there.
in reply to birdcat

they do this to all new accounts now, especially the mostly inactive ones. I think one way to get around the phone requirement is to use a proton email and setup 2FA immediately after creating the account. Then again, proton is flagging new accounts with signup confirmation emails too, so... yeah... leave github asap


More Day of the Dead celebration.

The neighborhood of West Adams in Los Angeles has a big celebration every year with a community ofrenda.

Here are some photos of the event.

#LosAngeles #DayOfTheDead

in reply to Chip Unicorn

I've had billions of years to be dead before I came to life and in a few more decades or less I'll have trillions so I'll celebrate death then, for now I'm going to celebrate life.
