I'm usually all for fediverse folks shitting on big corporate social media platforms, they definitely all deserve it. But unless I'm mistaken, and I very well might be, TT seems like it gets wayyyy more vitriol than the other big bads. Hopefully that's not for "old man yells at cloud" type reasons.

Anyway, definitely looking forward to Loops when it's ready!!

I'll have to take your word for it, but I have my doubts! Regardless, I feel like it's better to focus on whether you are doing or have done bad things, than to worry about whether you're an inherently bad person. You can always work to do better in the future, and to make amends.

No, absolutely not. At least, certainly none of my own, even if I were capable of it... I don't really see the point in procreating with the world on such a catastrophic trajectory. On the other hand, if I find myself in a situation where I have a home and resources to share, and some unfortunate already-existing kids need those things, I'd certainly offer them a place. That would be just as true for non-kids though, so I dunno how much of a "parent" that'd really make me.

I came to say the same thing about Camellia sinensis, thinking "am I about to be more of a tea purist than is even encapsulated in this chart?" So I'm glad somebody else got there first lol

Mostly I'm onboard with what you're saying here. Although, like others have said, don't forget there's plenty of people on OF who aren't women! If there is any problem at all, why isn't it also a problem for them? Second, I definitely wonder how many of the opinions in this thread are coming from other women who've done sex work. Those are mostly the only people I wanna hear from on this topic.

As far as the "fakeness" not working for you personally, I might have some good news for you. While of course capitalism does tend to suck all of the joy out of everything, like all professions, there are sex workers who definitely do enjoy their work. At least as much as anyone can feasibly enjoy working under capitalism anyway.

You'd be surprised, attractiveness is subjective!

I was saying the same thing as you a while ago and somebody told me that I'd be surprised and that attractiveness is subjective. And you know what? They were right!

An old PS1 fighting game called Unholy War. It had a lot of really unique mechanics I haven't seen since.

My boss would be really mad if I tried to not come in for that long

Lowe Mill in Huntsville, Alabama. It's like a giant collaborative art space in an old factory building. Pretty much the most anarchist space I've ever been to, although that's a very low bar for me.

It's been great honestly. I've got two boyfriends I love very much. While it's not all sunshine and roses all the time, they're the only people in my life who I feel like truly have my back, and I have theirs. Of course that's not something that's unique or inherent to romance, you could have the same thing with friends, family, etc. Just worked out that way for me.

Obligatory scaly lizard man of course.

I don't really understand this stuff super well, but... I suspect what it means is that Google can track you while google maps is open, BUT since it doesn't have access to the rest of your phone, they'll have no idea who you are anyway?

So about half a year ago somebody posted about Faircamp, a self-hosted open source alt for Bandcamp. It's really awesome, but I thought people might also want to know about a new one called Mirlo. This one is also open source, so it could ostensibly be self-hosted if you wanted, but the main thing is that it's got this flagship hosted option. Very similar to the Bandcamp experience, from the musician side. No techy stuff required at all, so I think this one might be way more user friendly for non-tech savvy folks!

AFAIK, neither Faircamp nor Mirlo have integrated ActivityPub support yet, but it seems entirely possible. Both do currently support subscription via RSS. Honestly I kinda feel like both platforms should collaborate, if they aren't already!

Maybe they could even get hooked up with RadioFreeFedi and do like featured artists and stuff.

Running Haxe on Gitpod? (hub.docker.com)
submitted 11 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Some friends and I are trying to learn Haxe together by working on a simple game. We're all like pretty much total amateurs at this stuff. For collaborating I set us up a repo for it on Gitlab, and I've been trying to run the actual code through Gitpod, but I can't get it to work... Has anyone else done this successfully?

Just to focus on ONE error at a time, here's this: I get a workspace loaded up seemingly successfully, with Haxe installed. But when I try to run haxelib setup for all the requisite libraries, it asks me for an install directory, and I apparently do not have write privileges?
