In honor of the celebrations, please allow me to share @noelle's excellent post on the timing of New Year's Day https://gist.github.com/joyeusenoelle/3754e00a37fe81aa43aad3eb9543f3ce
like the chinese calendar has year of the <creature> and it changes every year we should have a fediverse year of the <fursona>
like year of the bunny, year of the cat, year of the eldritch abomination from beyond the stars, year of the octopus, etc.
right then, what's the first meme of the decade we're going to run into the ground?
HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎉
@taweret probably one of the penguins
@InspectorCaracal I'm not familiar with fraggle rock but from what I've read, yes, probably
seriously though, bunch of communists living in a squat scavenging stuff to make cool stuff with?
punk as fuck

@envgen basically adobe premiere pro can have a little GPU
as a treat
@envgen I think some of the newer software can use a bit of GPU these days but I don't think it's enough to worry about upgrading or anything

If you're new to Mastodon: welcome!
Here are a couple guides I've put together:
An Increasingly Less-Brief Guide to Mastodon, which tries to explain what this place is all about: https://github.com/joyeusenoelle/GuideToMastodon/
So You're A Mastodon Moderator, which has some information on the tools at your disposal and some best practices for using them (it needs an update, but is still generally accurate): https://noelle.codes/so_youre_a_mastodon_moderator.pdf
@horrowfide@mastodon.social @taweret the mos eisley cantina band is played by electric mayhem

"sam, is that just a raspberry pi taped to a firework?"
...yes
@plsburydoughboy the talk at the moment is what can be called the year 2038 problem
It's a potential issue in how computers store dates and times at a low level, because computers it's possible that when the clock hits 03:14:08 on Tuesday, 19 January 2038 software might misinterpret it as being some time in 1901
Also the reason there weren't any issues in 2000 was the sheer amount of remediation work done, not that it wasn't a problem
@noelle yes!
we're not on an old version! we're mastodon classic!
