Need to make a primal scream without gathering footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
welcome post is pinned on some remote instances without obvious reason https://awful.systems/post/61
yeah thatās cos itās still pinned ;-) a year is probably enough Iāll unpin it now
i mean it didnāt show up as pinned ever before, at least for me
maybe awful.systems talking better to discuss.tchncs.de for obscure reasons? WELCOME TO FEDI WHO KNOWS HOW THE HELL ANY OF THIS WORKS
I just want to highlight that lemmy decided that .de domains were obviously legit, and the instanceās own domain does not get the autolink treatment (probably because the inner crate hasnāt been updated against IANA roots? who knows)
bless this jank
and here is a rare instance where Iāll be, like, 30% gracious. modern zoneroots are a fucking trip.
for instance, you may think you have an idea of how many there are. maybe even a guess? go on, have a guess. write it down. then open this link and post your delta
(side thought: this could be a drinking game)
I guessed 500. Thatāsā¦thatās not how many.
mastodon and bluesky are conspiracies by Big Janky Offbrand Domain Name
Wild, isnāt it? And thatās just the raw TLD config, ignoring all the weird ccTLD etc things going on
And not even mentioning the once-again-grift-rich world of altrootsā¦
thatās only desktop, jerboa autolinks both
Well fuck, now Iām going to have to dig into that, because that sounds like a wonderfully cursed divergent behaviour
Iām gonna get this tattooed on my knuckles. yes, all of it
I suspect whatās going on is discuss.tchncs.de probably updated lemmy to the new stable version? Iāve seen a couple of things federate that didnāt before, now that the new version is out
the confusing thing is, weāre not on the new stable version yet
how many fingers do you have
an accident with a teleporter and Midjourney
there was a perfectly good abyss/cthulhu joke here and you just DIDNāT
david.
maybe it was triggered by somebody responding to that post idk. nothing works, but it works reliably enough
iāve noticed that federation to kbin got significantly worse
