GCU Prosthetic Conscience 💀 @jfm@mastodon.social
Morning, fediverse. Splitting from this instance, find me at @gcupc. Follow requests are coming your way.

I'd say this rule in RFC 1855 has held up well over the years:
"Never send chain letters via electronic mail. Chain letters are forbidden on the Internet. Your network privileges will be revoked. Notify your local system administrator if your ever receive one."
Kids these days don't know how to use Bittorrent. I used to laugh at the war on piracy but I think it has actually been quite socially successful.
Fucking crushing dude.
I'm also pondering what it would take to make a no-front-end OStatus server in Common Lisp.
I'd like for things to remain at/around Specious but I feel that we're at Exaggerated. #ThreatLevel https://noagendasocial.com/media/xp1REb7G7nhXB6YE-C0
I miss the groups on old identica. How do groups federate on GNU Social?
Should I set up a postactiv instance on DO and re-add all my Mastodon peeps from there?
I think if I were to setup a gopher instance, I'd make it IPv6 only because fuck you
This is both remarkable and sad. A scheduled suicide blog post: https://willopines.wordpress.com/2017/04/19/punched-out/
I get his reasons. It's tiring to be an obligate social creature when you're not good at being social.
But if you go down that mental road, consider that the opinion of "the masses" will always be irrelevant and usually somewhat dumb. It's okay to be bad at social interactions, too.
It's not that "nobody cares", it's that it's irrelevant if anybody cares as long as you do.
Earlier I was complaining about having too much RPG material stockpiled...too much to actually read. And then today the mail dropped off my copy of the new "Paranoia". :persevere:
S’il vous plaît, n’oubliez pas de marquer vos statuts en utilisant le bouton « Content Warning » si leur contenu est susceptible de remémorer à quelqu’un une expérience traumatique, de déclencher une crise phobique, etc. C’est pour ça qu’il a été conçu à la base.

Please everybody, if your posts contain something that could recall a traumatic experience to another user, remember to tag them by using the "Content Warning" button. That's why it exists.
Thunderstorms going on here, expected to continue throughout the day. Why is staying home and drinking coffee and looking out the window all day not an option?

ANYWAY POINT IS
Block the Nazis and bigots. Or don't!
But if you don't, I'm gonna block you so I don't have to hear their subtoots.
And if you're an instance admin, I'm blocking your instance if you refuse to acknowledge the problem.
If you don't like it you can kiss my ass.
learning to take care of each other can mean a lot of things and it doesn't necessarily need to be anything crazy. Things like spotting each other crash, providing emotional support, and even just hanging out with one another in non-organizational settings goes a helluva long way.
Basically, organize with your friends, don't just build relationships solely on the context of organizing. You'll be able to pull off a lot more shit if you actually know and trust your comrades
tired: listing out your entire CV in your mastodon bio so people know who you are
wired: shitposting in your mastodon bio about how gay you are
The final remaining patent on the MP3 format — "METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ENCODING DIGITAL SIGNALS EMPLOYING BIT ALLOCATION USING COMBINATIONS OF DIFFERENT THRESHOLD MODELS TO ACHIEVE DESIRED BIT RATES" — has expired today.
Interesting piece
"Employers exercise vast control over our lives, even when we're not on the job. How did our bosses gain power that the government itself doesn't hold?"
