The new #GNOME console's chrome turns red when you run commands as root. Neat.

Economics: Humans only value things monetarily.
Sociology: Uh, I don't ...
Economics: Humans are always rational and value is calculated by a complex inner calculus.
Sociology: Uh, Psy, can you help?
Psychology: That's not how humans ...
Economics: ALSO MY SYSTEM WILL GROW EXPONENTIALLY FOREVER!!
Physics: *drops teacup*

Jumping off what @blaine is saying here:

mastodon.social/@blaine/109400

I work in professional fact-checking and content moderation for my day job at meedan.com and I have begun conversations about ways to do content moderation as a federated service that admins can pay to subscribe to (where moderators are paid a living wage, maybe in worker owned coops even, as opposed to big social media companies using basically sweatshop moderation labor)

@chad I have lots of Azure credits, I can run and administer a sidekiq worker VM for you if you want. Happy to discuss it further

RT @rob_sheridan@twitter.com

This is *exactly* as I imagined, and provides the most straightforward explanation for anyone still trying to grasp at complicated theories on how the "SpaceX genius" could possibly be so bad at this. tumblr.com/numberonecatwinner/

@drewdevault@fosstodon.org Surprised you didn't do in Hare! (also sorry if I'm adding to your sideprojects pile)

Right now, someone at Google is looking at Mastodon, thinking, "mmm, this could be a chat app...".

@marcan@treehouse.systems slight tangent but @pipewire is on the fediverse too!

I just deleted my twitter account. I actually feel sad about it. It used to be this amazing hive mind where I could learn or laugh at any interaction, but I can't stand seeing it becoming the platform of cyberbullies.

At the same time, I have never been this hopeful about the fediverse. I have been here for years, and it feels all the twitter magic is pouring here all of a sudden.

also the admins of birdsite and zucksite could read your DMs too so why is this even an issue you care about now

This seems like an appropriate first comic for mastodon.

@clemensv You really should! Spreading the load helps everyone. There are a lot of azure/microsoft people on hachyderm.io if you are interested

What's missing from these pictures?

No on-street parking makes all the difference in the cities of #Japan. The 1962 "proof-of-parking" law means you buy a car, you've got to show you've got a placeβ€”off public streetsβ€”to warehouse it.
