Just HOW drunk on Carbon are the Weather Lords?

NOAA knows. And here's a hint: We keep handing them the bottle and they can't put it down. #repent

There has been a departure from X in many waves since Musk took over in November 2022.

Every departure filters the network down to the people who are comfortable with everything he does to amplify hate.

Whatever Twitter once was, X Is now just a test for what people are willing to tolerate.

The fact that a user can forward a report to the instance where the reported user resides, but then those moderators can’t discuss the report with the report originators’ moderators within the report is a weird system.

Bunch of people freaking out about the "new" #twitter ToS that steals your posts & contents within (images, video) & feeds it to Grok, allegedly coming Jan 15th.

But surprise, #x put this into effect back in 2024. So it's NOT new, people are just finally […]

A cowboy-shot digital illustration of a young woman styled in an anime aesthetic. She has long, dark black hair with streaks of vibrant red-orange towards the ends, framing a face with large, expressive pink eyes and lightly freckled skin. Her mouse ears match her hair color, positioned atop her head. Her outfit is a dark purple, low-cut corset top with delicate lace detailing along the edges. It's paired with black high-waisted pants and a thick, red-white belt cinched at her waist. A silver/bronze necklace with a heart-shaped pendant hangs around her neck. She's posed with one hand raised, lightly touching the top of her head as if pulling back her hair. Her expression is somewhat coy and inviting with a light smile and partially closed eyes ("jitome" in Japanese). The background is blurred, suggesting a crowded indoor space with indistinct figures and a spotlight illuminating the floor. A cowboy shot anime-aesthetic of a young woman with prominent mouse features. She has pale skin, large pink-violet eyes and dark hair streaked with red down to her neckline. She's wearing a revealing outfit: a dark purple leather-looking short corset with metal detailing, low-rise black-purple pants with gold wallet chain, and red-white belt. Notably, she has large, down animal ears – specifically mouse ears – and a thick, red tail curled on the floor behind her. Her arms are raised above her head in a pose that emphasizes her exposed stomach, arms, and underarms. The background is blurred; she's in a dimly lit indoor space with other people present. The floor is a polished and reflective aqua tile, creating some light flares.

Mastodon 4.5.X has been a lot of trouble for servers that need to be in a different user space for reasons.

Permissions issues abound! Can’t upload files! Thanks to @enovmusic for reporting it! The hard part is looking into it…

Well, tried to upgrade Mastodon from 4.4.3 to 4.5.2, but strange errors such as:

"Could not locate Gemfile or .bundle/ directory"

During the pre-upgrade step using Docker on Debian caused us to fail. We went to 4.4.8 instead - something changed in the 4.5 branch which is stopping us from […]

#usda is showing their partisanship on their website in the biggest letters possible. And the statement is absolutely unhinged. It gets more unhinged as you read it, which is impressive. Equally mentionable but not shocking: it's full of bald-faced lies […]

USDA website, with USDA banner, main links on the top page, and the following statement in large, orange background, and white text which encompasses the whole page: "Senate Democrats have now voted 13 times to not fund the food stamp program, also known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Bottom line, the well has run dry. At this time, there will be no benefits issued November 01. We are approaching an inflection point for Senate Democrats. They can continue to hold out for healthcare for illegal aliens and gender mutilation procedures or reopen the government so mothers, babies, and the most vulnerable among us can receive critical nutrition assistance."

We’re not dealing with brilliant strategists cleverly laying traps, we’re dealing with impulsive whiners whose advantage is contempt for laws, norms, and morality.

They’re not pulling some elaborate trick, they’re just willing—even eager—to do things regular, principled people consider off limits.
