It's 2023, and I am honestly perplexed that sending custom request headers is still a pain-in-the-ass with some #JavaScript #web frameworks.
Custom request headers were supported by *#ActionScript* in 2005.
(walks away grumbling to self about javascript frameworks stuck on an innovation threadmill, reinventing #ModelViewPresenter, #DataBinding, and component frameworks over, and over, and over, and over again)

Privileged white guy who runs toot.community publicly declares “outrage culture is slowly taking over my Mastodon timeline… outrage about protests, police, climate, big tech… I don’t care.”
I call him out.
Other privileged white folks: “But did you hug him first? Discuss it over tea?”
Another black man was just ruthlessly murdered by police in the US. Climate change is an existential threat. Big Tech is destroying democracy.
But you’re upset I didn’t coddle your fellow white guy?
Fuck you.

Cause I’m caught underwater, breathing
Breathing is hard
Have I gone too far?
It’s all I know
More than just a little hard
Caught in the undertow, reaching
It’s pulling me down
Have I gone too far?
Can you reach me?
I’ve gone too far“

#OxygenNotIncluded c341
Second set of battery rooms are now hydrogen filled and connected to the first set. Here is the thermal overlay: 24 batteries, under 30C.
@GeePawHill 🤣🤣 too true
#OxygenNotIncluded c335
Here is the gas overlay for the battery boxes. The top room is filled with Hydrogen, and already in-use. The room below is being vacuumed out. When the second room is all vacuum, the pump will be disabled, the insulated tiles between the two rooms will replaced with airflow tiles, and the hydrogen will fill both rooms.
The wheezeworts were planted using Pips. Which is why I'm vacuuming out rooms, instead of digging out vacuumed rooms from the start.
#OxygenNotIncluded c335 This play-through, I started out with the Super Sustainable achievement in mind. I've since surpassed the achievement, but continuing with the sustainable constraints (no polluting power). This screenshot shows my current solar power array, and initial battery boxes.

While other big tech CEOs are cutting head count, Tim Cook is cutting his pay.
No crocodile tears about “taking full responsibility” either.

Not really. I prefer Fedifed over the other Android clients, but none of them have the pizzazz of the iOS clients.
Wow. #IceCubes is a delightful #iOS client to the #fediverse.

An oft cited study claims that the magic number of things most people can memorize easily is 7. A 7-word pass phrase, using a sufficiently large dictionary, would be pretty strong.

i was laid-off twice early in my career in very large reorgs / cost-cutting.
the thing that wld have been helpful for me to hear then was 'this is not abt you. you were a number on someone's spreadsheet. they wanted that number to go down by 1000 or 2000 or 10,000'.
so, to anyone who needs to hear that today:
it's not abt you. you did nothing wrong.

Unfortunately, I have no job leads, but I offer solidarity from another Ohio parent who may have to do the same. 💙✊🏻

Because it’s never a matter of IF there’s a bad apple in the group - there’s ALWAYS a bad apple in the group - when you’re a community leader, it’s a matter of: what are you doing to amplify or quiet that bad apple? How do you take away their power to ruin it for everybody? It may not be possible in a stadium, but it’s sure as shit possible online.

(sarcasm:) It could be worse, you could be a PG&E customer. In addition to rate fuckery, they set a random neighborhood of customers on fire yearly.
