One of the weird things here is that a lot of people misunderstand the federated timeline. They think it represents the whole world, or some subset of it. It's not. It's just the world your instance knows about.

There's actually whole worlds out there in the fediverse that are nothing like our world here.

When we talk about how "mastodon is so awesome," what we're really talking about is our little corner of it. And that is something I love. :)

I have an old 286 with both FDD sizes I needed to clean up anyway. The HDD was already formatted & empty, so I installed DOS on it (verifying my DSHD floppies work), & I'll bring in a bunch of DSDDs to make one bootable & sneakernet the installed OS over.

Aw, crap, these are DSHD disks, and my PC's only drive is DSDD.

We need more spaces for trans masc folks. We need them to feel welcome, and we need to support them, especially during their transition.

Even I admit I could be doing better. I keep trying to. I want to learn more about it, not just through medical documentation, but experiences of people who have gone/are going through it.

Call me out if you feel I'm ever being insensitive to something trans masc folks go through, please!

My sandwich of 5.25" MS-DOS floppy disks order came with a free side of 512 MB RAM stick because MS & eBay require all OEM software to be distributed with hardware. All it's missing is a bottle of Jolt.

I have a 1.6 GHz desktop computer made in 2017 that takes longer to pass POST than the 4.7 MHz desktop computer made in 1981 that it's a long-descended clone of. I don't know where we went wrong.

@pixl@snouts.online I misread sims as sins, & IDK how bad I should feel for misreading it.
