social media is anything but and mastodon has not ever been and will not ever be better than twitter or any similar contrived microblogging platform for as long as it retains the favourite button

if you like a post where a person is talking about killing themselves that means that you like that that person wants to kill themselves, there is no other interpretation for the wording x has liked your post that i can infer in good faith and this is why i tell people not to like my negative posts unless they like that i'm in misery because if you want to convey anything else you have 26 letters and punctuation at your disposal

The latest game poem by @alienmelon hits so hard.
It's time to throw the horrors away and plant gentle flowers.
killer tofu by the beets is unironically like the perfect rock song

As much as I'm all in favour of blaming AI bros for the RAM shortage, there was always going to be a squeeze on RAM prices for some reason eventually, and we really did make sure it would be maximally painful for ourselves when we started treating RAM as functionally free.
RAM prices in 2026 are about the same as they were in 2008 when the original MacBook Air launched. It had 2GB of RAM and it ran like a goddamn dream. There is absolutely zero technical reason we couldn't ship an even better computer with 2GB RAM today — except everything these days is a JavaScript app running in a dedicated Chromium instance and needs at least its own gigabyte to run around in.
That said, it's probably pretty safe to blame AI bros for everything being a Chromium instance — I'm willing to bet it's largely the same people trying to ship something that just about works with the absolute minimum of time and effort now as it was then

a while ago someone pointed out a page full of free VST instruments that emulate/simulate vintage synths, in a group chat i've since left
does anyone know a page like that? it was not the usual suspects like synth1, each vst was aimed at a specific synth, i believe at least one was roland

re: Linux rant
My only choices are extremely niche, which will be supported for who knows how many more days, and vintage distro versions with the certainty of no more updates.

Linux rant
"Got a dusty old laptop you wish you could use again? Don't want to throw it out? Just run Linux on it!"
This is total BS, now that every major Linux distro has abandoned its i386/i686/x86 32-bit editions. I can't even find one to put on my Atom Netbook anymore, let alone my early XP era Dell Inspiron tank.
Especially don't promise such BS with a stock photo of an obvious Commodore PET 4032 with the nameplate taped over to make it look like a generic old PC.
house house please finish big walk :(

One of the ways that LLM-authored code improves productivity is by merely SAYING it does things. It's way faster than the whole time-consuming process of actually doing things. This is real code someone sent to me for review.
