@lispi314 @izaya I do enjoy a good beige box. It's not small and it's not pretty, but it is super easy to work on.

@foone You probably can. BGI is a statically linked library with a C API. Rust supports both of those things out of the box.

@ManyRoads He says he's focused on saving America from Harris. That sounds like he's planning to help Trump steal the election.

@barney If she picks Josh Shapiro, it won't be only bots that are angry. Gen Z voters will be alienated as well, and we need them. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josh_Shapiro section “Views on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict”.On the other hand, if she doesn't pick Shapiro, polls say she'll lose Pennsylvania, without which she is unlikely to win the election.We live in scary times…

@ThePsyOfLife > Is anyone really surprised that a Jewish politician of a major American political party toes the line on Israel?Yeah, I am. Massacring civilians is always wrong, no matter who does it. After what Jews have been through in WW2, I would expect them to understand that better than anyone. Many do, but sadly not all.> If … then they aren't using good democratic calculus.Indeed, they're not. If they were, Trump wouldn't be tied with Harris right now.

@ThePsyOfLife People would rather do what they feel like and rationalize as needed, than carefully consider the consequences and morality of their actions before committing them. Easier that way. Weaklings.

@ChanceyFleet On the rare occasion I post an image, I do try to write alt text that's both descriptive and a bit whimsical. I hope someone sees and likes it!

We didn't have none of these new-fangled light-emitting doohickeys when I was young. If you wanted to see a picture on a screen back in my day, you'd point a 27-kilovolt death ray at your face, which came with a screen attached in front of it, and the death ray would light up the screen. This contraption somehow didn't kill us. Usually.#CRT

@NanoRaptor The picture shows a lithium battery. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that those don't leak.

@benroyce I doubt it. If that were going to happen, it would have happened already, after Trump lost in 2020.

It just occurred to me that none of the classic #InstantMessaging systems are still running. #ICQ, #AOLInstantMessenger, #YahooMessenger, and #MSNMessenger are all gone. I have lost contact with all my old friends there. I doubt I'll ever hear from them again.The #OpenSource, #federated competitor to these protocols, #XMPP, remains in operation and has outlived them all. So did #IRC, the protocol that arguably inspired them.Proprietary software and protocols come and go, but #FOSS endures.

This occurred to me because I was looking at the #Pidgin website https://pidgin.im and the classic instant messengers are conspicuously missing from its list of supported protocols…except XMPP.
