@toomanyfoxes it *looks* like maybe it worked this time, it now says "unfollow" instead - I do not see the user icon, but that could be unrelated (the media in the posts does seem to load, at least in the account page)
@toomanyfoxes just tried to refollow (utc 07:44), let's see what happens :) correct, I do not see posts from the new account!
@toomanyfoxes@botsin.space I poked the follow button a day or two ago for @toomanyfoxes@icy.arcticfluff.eu and looking at it now it shows as "follow requested", dunno what's happening there :)
@faoluin @erin_kitsune concur fully there, Qt would fit that description very nicely :)

Guess what just launched? https://writingmonth.org
I'm proud to announce #WritingMonth, a challenge to meet your writing goals in the next 30 days. Pick your own goal that best challenges you and write your novel, short stories, poems, stage or screen play, blog posts, or any other writing project as part of a growing community of writers.
Note: I had to rush development a lot to make it by the November deadline, so there are a few things still missing or incomplete, but overall the site is ready to start up our challenge. I'll be continuing to fill in new and upgraded features as time allows over the coming days and weeks.
Boosts are very welcome!
@darkfox @lettosprey most of my stickers are made by Aspentangle (telegram) :)
@Plus_Ultra ...so many spelling mistakes in that post, goodness!
@Plus_Ultra and he's just... a bug gamer need person, and I could see hum put on a hat and sunglasses and just, you know, drop by cituzencon unannounced next year ;)

Tapping the sign again:
Being autistic does not make anyone sexist, racist, eugenicist, an advocate for gendered violence, an apologist for child abuse, or any of the things that white dudes in open source technology are starting to be held accountable for.
Being an *asshole* makes someone an advocate for abuse.
Stop infantilizing grown-ass adults.
Criticism of a sexual harasser is not ableist. You know what's ableist? Your colleagues who refuse to prioritize accessibility in FLOSS.
@sosh argh! *rips off head-masto-phones, scowls* ;)
@Plus_Ultra @Saufian way simpler, they went into it in isc and the q&a scl after: no, you get spat out at the edge of one of the two systems, likely with a damaged ship, but not an exploded one :)
@quidcumque @irina I basically came here to say this, yeah, I'm very in :)
@shaan7 I have been known to buy the game plus ost pack, and then never play the game... ;)
@admin thank you so much for the updates, and the work :)
@Plus_Ultra we will, thybwent with these studs for the first go, simply because rings etc come with geometry problems :) they talked about that on the isc when they went through the new character creator stuff

We are happy to let you know that 49 fantastic free and open source projects will receive NGI0 Core grants.
It's a wide variety of projects covering all 10 layers of the technology stack, from open hardware to applications.
But what unites them is they all contribute to alternatives and improvements to core internet architecture.
Together they are working on an open, resilient and trustworthy internet for all.
Come over and meet the projects! https://nlnet.nl/news/2024/20241003-announcing-Core-call.html
@Plus_Ultra hehe, yeah, I've found myself introducing people to the concept of mechanical counter-pressure suits, and asking them to watch some clips from The Martian, about how living in a suit affects his skin in that, and then consider whether they really think CIG aren't going to do that as part of hygiene gameplay ;)

Can I tempt you to a story of transformation, injustice, war, and discovering your true identity? Join Rhys as he learns the world is not how he always understood, waking up in a new body with new struggles. #scifibooks #furryfiction
@balloonpup and... does Esset particularly disagree with this clearly very reasonable observation? ;)
