@shekkiesqueaks I'm only aware of one, a personal one-user instance, being shut down.

I actually like the program xcal, but not only is it not in FreeBSD ports, the only place I can find a copy of the source is in Debian's source pools.

And the source won't build because clang doesn't translate ancient imake rules/macros right: X11.rules exists, but it's trying to include ' X11 .rules' (spurious spaces).

@Vann@glitch.social I didn't even know the feature existed until you mentioned it.

I for one would rather have real interactive people than one-way token celebrity endorsements in my social network.

I just noticed that what they're wearing during the comparison dances are...

...sorting hats.

YouTube is recommending folk dancers illustrating merge sort and bubble sort, too.

I need to sort these Hungarian folk dancers as quickly as possible. What computer algorithm should I use? youtu.be/3San3uKKHgg

Oh are the new users asking about how to get the check mark again? LMAO listen:

You're important, you're valid, & you don't need that check mark 💝💝💝

There's no checkmark procedure on Mastodon. You're already verified real and valid.

My workstation is misbehaving so badly, clicking on "Boost" turned the page into a solid black screen. I'm going to take this as a hint. Happy weekend, everyone.

Happy Friday the Thirteenth, folks.

Things are getting accomplished and work disasters are getting resolved successfully, but the curse is apparently exhaustion. (And my workstation is lagging on things it shouldn't be.)

fascist shit 

@soft_chomps@glitch.social Fascists use flawed logic and faulty reason as weapons. The only meaning words have to them is as a weapon to use as deftly as their anagram, a sword.

Periodic reminder: malvertising on otherwise-trustworthy websites has been such a large problem for years, and shows no sign of getting better, that an ad blocker is Internet security software.

If a site you visit asks you to disable your ad blocker, take it the same way you would a demand to disable your antivirus just to view their site.
