@surtvittvin du får väl en notis när någon nämner dig, som nu när jag skriver det här till exempel?
och du får väl en notis när någon klickar på stjärnan (favorit) eller boostar något av dina inlägg?
@barbiche Visst har gurkan varit ovanligt dyr ett tag?
@surtvittvin mm "Krist"-demokraterna som verkar stå för ungefär motsatsen av vad som var Jesus budskap.
Krist-"demokraterna" som om de skulle stå för demokratiska värderingar.
"Krist"-"demokraterna" har ett mycket försljuget namn, ingen av de två delarna stämmer ju.
Sen har vi "Liberalerna" också. Suck.
Det blir en hackträff nu på lördag den 26 augusti i samarbete med Studiefrämjandet. Vi har inte bestämt något särskilt tema denna gång, men förslag emottages gärna. Det finns också utrymme för att hålla föredrag i något ämne vilket brukar vara uppskattat.
Vi öppnar dörrarna klockan 10 och håller öppet till klockan 15.
Plats: Ljusbärargatan 2, https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/52073039

@libreoffice Nice, great to see #PeerTube used for this! ⭐
@yummysandwiches Well done!

Great that you are leaving reddit.
> so much open hostility to all things crypto here
True, I have seen it a lot here, it's like a "cancel-culture" type of phenomenon. But that is stupid and needs to change, and I think the proper way to make that change is to interact with people here and explain things.
Thanks, I see. Good job!
By the way I am glad to find you here, it has bothered me a lot that Monero folks seem so attached to Twitter (or whatever its name is now). That is a centralized platform and being dependent on that seems to go against everything that Monero is about, I mean censorship resistance and so on. Relying so much on Twitter means being vulnerable to censorship. Same with Github.
Are there others from the Monero crowd here (in the fediverse)?
I think this discussion boils down to the following two things which people may want:
(1) ability to build everything from source
(2) ability to enforce memory-safety
In my own opinion, (1) is critical, it is what FOSS is all about, while (2) is more a nice-to-have kind of thing. I would never sacrifice (1) to get (2).
People who like Rust sometimes seem to focus on (2) so much that they are willing to throw (1) under the bus. That's not good.

Kul! Synd att jag missade det, hade velat vara med men det gick inte denna gång.
Thanks, such gift cards is an interesting possibility.
Still, physically going to a not-too-local store to buy a separate gift card for each purchase is pretty inconvenient. So there is still an advantage with cryptocurrency, in my view.
Then there is also the issue of censorship resistance, allowing the store to function independently.
@Mayobrot Noooo! Who does that?
@megmac quoting from one of the comments in the github issue:
> the idea that the act of compiling software
> downloads and runs blobs feels wrong to me
I agree with that, but hasn't this been a problem with rust all along?
When I was building a Linux From Scratch (LFS) system a while ago, having all source code in place first and then building everything offline from those sources, it was rust-related things that gave me problems because rust insisted on downloading binaries.
Joined Mastodon only recently and am eager to connect with the Science and #openscience community!
Especially, as I would like to share that we are organizing an #openscience workshop in Bordeaux with the registration deadline right around the corner. We have eminent speakers confirmed and I'll be sharing more about them in the coming days. If you know someone who might be interested, please spread the word!
