some time ago I run into a talk from some #libraplanet (or something) from some years back

It went on about how the average number off contributors to #freesoftware projects is 2 (or quite low anyway) and sometimes Free Software projects are crap

I'd like to find it again

I'd be grateful for any hint

There's this boy on youtube, he has a lot of videos about tech

Wordpress, nodejs, Sass...

and GTK mainly form a ElementaryOS installation

he has a few tutorials about how to start a GTK based project with Vala

He seems to be Italian and living in London

I can't remember the name of his youtube channel

I'd be grateful for any reminder

reminder that im very, very poor rn (to the point of not eating healthily, im probably lowkey malnourishing myself) and that you can always give me money

im a navy vet who got tricked out of my benefits, im constantly submitting job applications and finding nothing, and i really wish i could afford to just treat myself once in a while

there's a good chance i cant withdraw my retirement savings from my navy time fast enough for next month rent, in which case ill probably have to crowdfund or well, i dont really know what the alternative is

please help me survive

im trying so hard, and hope is scarce to find.

anything helps including boosts, thanks for reading

I voted today! Since you don't get "I voted" stickers when you mail an absentee ballot, I'm sharing this picture so I don't miss the social credit of participating in our democracy (to the limited extent I can).

VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! VOTE!

if you’re cis and comfortable with dealing with government and/or medical institutions, consider accompanying your trans friends there.

if your trans friend tells you they’re nervous about changing their government ID, offer to go with them.

likewise if your trans friend is nervous about eg. filling their hrt prescription.

a fair bit of the bs we trans people have to deal with can often be mitigated when it’s clear that we have a cis friend with us.
