Dragon Ball characters are named after food that's why Goku's rival is named Fajita

if you use the word clanker it says a lot about how YOU SHOULD NEVER USE LLMS THEY ARE HARMFUL AND BAD AND SHAMEFUL

if you make that kind of hate normalized pretty soon you'll NEED TO STOP USING THEM YOU DWEEB NEVER USE AN LLM

Folks in digital preservation looking for a chill place to hang out off here - I run a digipres mastodon instance, digipres.club. I try to keep it running well and low stress. All are welcome.

Hometown is adapted from Mastodon, a decentralized social network with no ads, no corporate surveillance, and ethical design.

i am catching up on the moderation discourse and it’s really annoying that this episode basically goes back to leadership trying to have a goof and a gag. there’s not a lot of room-reading happening which comes across as immature and unprofessional

It's like they're posting bait here and then sharing it in the Marc Andreessen rationalist Signal chat for validation and the hope that someone from there will be in the next funding round and remember them as a rationalist martyr

Which, to be clear, the people they're virtue signaling to are mostly not in BlueSky, which is part of why I find this strange.

Bluesky staff have a bubble around them here, sure, but they post such obviously dunkable stuff in a place where it will get dunked on.

More seriously, what it _actually_ is is virtue signaling to other techies that they are the rationalists getting attacked by a woke mob and aren't afraid to speak their mind

which is a lucrative thing to be under rising fascism and increasingly openly conservative venture capital

Crashing out about how mean the users are being to you publicly instead of in the company Slack like the rest of us do is entirely a skill issue on Bluesky's part

The only federal intervention Portland has ever needed was someone to step in and stop them from building that fuckin hotel over the Alder street food cart pod

there should be a way to tell if you're venting about the worst interpretation of a mild comment you saw or if you're posting about real danger and trying to inform your community

what I'm saying is we should bring back "how I'm feeling" statuses on each post

Osmose @osmose.bsky.social · 13d

it really sucks that the format for complaining online about other fans of a cartoon you like being unreasonable and the format for complaining online about masked government agents kidnapping people are the same format

twitter is now the digital Heartland and the media lauds itself for going there to connect with Real People and it's as valuable as when they do it offline
