tech dystopia 

@julialuna To be fair I dont know a single real person who doesnt have a facebook or twitter account... just saying.

"if you don't have any of these you're not a real person"

@Raccoondude It appears to be, the UI is identical to mastodon suggesting as much.

He broke the licensing agreement that requires a person keep all copyright notices and also that he is required to release the source code along side any modifications he makes to the server.

I will get a great amount of pleasure if I see the mastodon project sue trump, make a bunch of money, get him to shut down his server, and then use that money to improve the network/project.

I have to say, it's pretty great how: A) The Fediverse is quick to block Trump's fork and instance of Mastodon that violates the AGPL3 licensing B)...

@freemo My other project is a Potentiometer board

I made this as pushing potentiometers in to breadboards can make the holes too big, however with the headers I can attach leads from a multi meter (you can get some that can clip on to headers) which is handy, this one has 1k 10k and soon 5k,

@freemo THis is a small project to build a modiule to help determine Plankcks Constant.

I got the instructions from cleapss.org.uk/ who produce resources for schools. The idea is that you power this, up and can light up either the RED Yellow, Orange (Once soldered on) Green and Blue LEDs, the potentiometer (1k) allows brightness to be adjusted, measure voltage across the lED, then from all that + the wavelength of the light (from daa sheet) you can calculate or Plankcs Constant.

I cant' share the instructions as they are copyright, i downloaded this while on work experience at a school as I also downloaded other resources in relation to a short course I did during the work experience.

@blindscribe Neither have any federation in place, I just checked and one isnt even online yet.

I totally get why someone would block these servers once they get on the fediverse, or any political server. No one wants to hear politicians spam their feed. So I'm all for blocking it.

But can we at least wait until the server is actually federating before we start the drama of infighting about blocking this or that and blocking anyone who doesnt block and all that tiring crap we had to deal with before.... lets wait till it happens (as it may not).

Orange Light Emitting Diodes have now arrived. I can now complete my module that helps to determine Planck's Constant. However before i fire up my soldering iron for this, I am waiting for some 5k potentiometers which I need to complete my little potentiometer board. So may as well solder everything up at the same time.

@swiley

for some people, myself included, this is true. Not sure how true it is in general.

Also with cad being a fundementally 3d visualization sort of domain I feel like its less beholden to that then other creation tools might be (like software development)

@herag

@herag

Considering it requires you to know a DSL and therefore one of the most complicated on the list, the fact that it was the only one you got comfortable with says something in its own right.

@swiley

@swiley well there are only 3 votes so far, so give it time.

OpenSCAD is where im leaning but i dont have much experience with any of them.

@Pat

I know I havent. I think he was being sarcastic to show the absurdity of affirmative action dialogues. I doubt he meant it at face value.

@matrix

What is your favorite ?

@matrix

lol, I'm not one to like affirmative action for any race, and certainly not whites. So even if this were true I'd find it a bad reason.

That said while Pat's point is valid that there is bias against blacks to some degree I want to point out when i see movies intentionally made all black, like that all-black version of wizard of the oz I personally find that equally unacceptable.

To me a good measure is where race isnt really a big issue (except to achieve accuracy with a setting_ The screen should be a relatively honest representation of the same demographics we would see inr eality in the same setting. Again unless the plot is somehow explicitly about a race in an unusual setting for that race.

I havent watched this move but if your comment is serious then it would depend on if the movie really does sell that narrative, of a white guy who is experiencing resistance in baseball due to his race. Like white men cant jump movie, that is partly that, so having a white man as the main character made sense despite blacks dominating that sport.

@Pat

@icedquinn It always is... This is why everyone loves dogs, they cant communicate shit. You either love them or get your face ripped off, totally up to you, but there will be no discussing!

@ringo I think she sees all these goofy absurd stupid sort of funny people making a shit ton of money, like that asian chick who makes and eats weird shit, that she wanted to try to replicate it. But she just failed.

Either that or she was trying to mock the asian chick im mentioning and do a movie in her style that was intentionally bad.

Whether intentional cringe or accidental cringe either way the cringe is strong. She is either a moron or a genius and I cant tell which.

@mushambo I would love to see him use mastodon just so I can see the whole of the fediverse loose their shit... its been about a year since the last major all encompassing fediverse drama, so would be right on schedule :)
