on Linux, is there a way to switch off "Tamagotchi Mode"? specifically i mean the thing where you set up linux exactly how you want, and every 2 weeks you run package updates and some obscure part of your system which you didn't even know existed now no longer works the way you set it up, and you have to spend 90 minutes fixing it, and it's always a different thing, and this happens every 2 weeks, forever. how do you switch that off? (ideally in a way where it won't switch back on after 2 weeks)

For your safety, the current list of instances that Ro uses to attack queer people on fedi is:

- rage.love
- queer.group
- indiepocalypse.social
- blackqueer.life
- queer.garden
- mastodon.art
- solarpunk.moe
- colorid.es
- cathode.church

Blocking as many of these instances as you can will minimize the risk of your instance facing transphobic harassment from Ro.

It's best to block all of them - often harassment escalates when a new source is added to the list (not yet blocked). #fediblock

Ro is now fantasizing about murdering his internet enemies with guns and/or the US military.

This is deeply, deeply, weird behaviour!

Back home!

Now, what was the point of this exercise?

Receiving death threats as a 20 years old isolated trans girl is fucking terrifying, it’s probably your first time getting them and you think it’s serious.

I’m twice that age, with all it entails. So i’ll tell you: the guy who sent them to me, the details are here: https://mastodon.social/@fedilore/114281481113969158

Look, he puts his damn wallet name online! It’s on this page by @nivenly - https://nivenly.org/docs/papers/fsep/ - it’s Roland X. Pulliam

You literally never do shit to people when you threaten them from your wallet name. He did that because he was angry I talked about his horrible attitudes about survivors of rape and transgender women, that’s all. He also brings up chaser allegations i didn’t bring up, fuck if i know why.

But anyway: someone wants to fuck up your life, he does it, no warning. Someone threatens you means he hopes to spook you.

Everyone, point and laugh at the death threats he sent me.

I made a little thread (on main) about the death threats (the most recent ones, those i received) and pointed out that Nivenly has his full name on their pages, to show to younger people they have nothing to fear from this, even if people half my age might find it traumatic. I also told that company to clean up their act. It's here: https://fedi.aria.dog/notice/Asn3nOecqQHE1EHZPk

Tariffs making your game consoles too expensive? Thankfully this problem was solved years ago. Simply set up a factory to manufacture the Sega Master System in your country

I don't particularly care about the preservation aspect of freeze drying, or how high-protein meat snacks are. I just want crunch dry meat. Please!

Is there anywhere I can get freeze dried meat nuggets like the stuff you get inside Cup Noodles™? I know Nissin did their limited-time haha-just-kidding-right box of "mystery meat" but that was Japan exclusive and I'm thoroughly upset I didn't get to try any.

Let me introduce you to Ferretcage: a silly little mini-ITX computer that I'm never going to finish. https://netizen.club/~wildweasel/blaugh/posts/2025-04-02-Let-me-introduce-you-to-Ferretcage--the-project-that-may-never-progress.html

have you heard of #webgbcam ?

it's a web tool (PWA even, add it to your home screen!) that uses your device's cameras to simulate the look of the game boy camera! you can record short gifs with it and there's also a 1bpp atkinson dithering mode!
