cleaned my kitchen trashcan with soap and water and waited like two hours for it to dry and then I finally call it a night at 3 AM but APPARENTLY the outlet that I used to charge my phone just died for no apparent reason so I had to rearrange the power strip in the corner that's plugged into the only remaining safe outlet on this side of my room to account for this and now it's at 5 out of 6 plugs used and in an awkward spot and it sucks. I just want to rest

@buherator you say this but on linux I have had way too many incidents where I wanted to open calculator and got LibreOffice Calc instead

@vozercozer I hate it because I am actually really close to how sheldon is but I still feel offended when I get compared to him. I simply cannot win

@gavi yeah I looked at the feed and it was entirely either stolen meme videos about technology or entirely in german and also about technology because these are the only people who actually care about using an open source tiktok alternative

people get so caught up in ideology that they fail to see the forest for the trees. nobody's going to use your thing if there's already a thing that does what looks like the same thing but way better

I think what a lot of these decentralized/open source whatever projects don't get is that they actually need unique things to sell people on. you can't just say "oh it's FOSS and decentralized and you have control over your own data" and expect that to win people over

@approxamatrix10 unfortunately this is a bit of a self own because I haven't really gotten into things and I've found myself to be a bit more of an old-school guy but I think del the funky homosapien/deltron 3030 is pretty good. I think I liked a bit of denzel curry from what I heard but not enough to form an opinion on it. and if you measure how good something is by how many people like it then check out kendrick lamar

@swiftyshq I think that this is emblematic of most games with crafting systems, in that it's just a mechanic designed to make you do more chores most of the time. minecraft's system works because it gives you room to experiment with all the grids and smelting instead of just saying "ok so in order to get this item you have to craft an item to use with a machine that requires you to craft several items, two of which also depend on crafting several items" which just gets annoying

is michael bublé actually an established artist or is he just some guy that they let out of the vault every december and then put him back on the 26th

@yujiri hey, if you feel offended by this then maybe it's a sign to broaden your horizons a bit. listening to more genres of music from different cultures and understanding its history gives you a deeper appreciation for the art form

I can't say for sure but there's a non zero amount of bans over being anti-zionist from what I can tell and they clearly aren't doing anything about the ones on the other side. methinks that it's the german "overcompensating for the holocaust" thing

@swiftyshq @crestofthebeast huh, I guess I'm not really seeing it. I can't really say for sure then, especially with the "but copy/pasting from discord works" thing. very weird, maybe you could try different image formats sometime just to rule that out
eblu @eblu@wetdry.world
after looking through the results for "mastodon" on bluesky one too many times I kind of get the feeling that mastodon.social moderators are zionists

@swiftyshq @crestofthebeast are you sure that it isn't just the overlay that lets you set a focal point for when mastodon crops the image?
