#Microsoft is killing the #BSoD 😭
No more blue screens... it's now the Black Screen of Death 🥲

But the #tradition though... aw.

@Lioh @kyle No, the US isn't the enemy nation to the US (I'm from the US).

@flacs 🤔

@0x10f Nice

@kyle I'd pay 20% more for a made-in-USA laptop (or specifically, a not-made-in-enemy-nation laptop), easily.

@programming_quotes "a debate with a compiler" ...

I may have not phrased that well

@mike It would be a cool trend if open-source projects changed their licenses to say that businesses with over a certain amount of profit have to pay a certain slice of that profit.
Like what you're saying, right?

@mike One one hand, governments and corporations shouldn't have to pay for using open-source software since it is explicitly provided Free....
On the other hand, it's not really fair when some poor maintainer finds themselves maintaining a project that a lot of people really depend on (the #XZbackdoor comes to mind).

So frustrating, #ZenBrowser crashed and I lost a post I was typing up :/
(Might have something to do with Nvidia, I've been having #Nvidia woes as usual. Maybe it has something to do with that.)

Arguing online is annoying, it seems like my points never get across

@jbiserkov @tshirtman @xale @sop For some reason, Mastodon seems to label all video as "GIF", which is frustrating to me

@strypey Frankly, it's not a hill either of us need to die on because even in the screenshots you gave, you can see that all your clients actually *do* display a server. Take a look :) we're both talking about @ mentions but when it comes to viewing a post, *all five* of the screenshotted clients show the poster's server, which is what matters for following a news source.
At any rate, @ index isn't the best name, so they could change it for *that* reason, as you were saying.

@citrus_marine Hey I mean it can go from 6mil to 14mil in one day too in theory, right? But don't burn yourself out ;)

@programming_quotes ❗

@strypey @mho @tangle_news @feed @index @index @feed @index @feed @index @index @index @index @index @index @index @index @index @index @index @index @index I've used several and they usually automatically show or hide the server part of the handle depending on context, which is usually enough.

@andros Neat. What I do is put a leading space before the command, like ` echo 'secret sauce' >> .secretsaucedb`. Works on most shells and shell configurations, though I haven't always found it enabled so I might do ` echo test` first and then hit the up arrow to see if it was remembered.
