@thenewoil This explains why Proton has seemed so jumpy and has brought back their Visionary plan, I'd bet.

That horrified moment of realization that a 5k line shell script (no shit, it sucked to write but the alternative was worse) may still be in use at an old company I worked for.

If you're thinking about boycotting Raspberry Pi my biggest question to you is this: Where are you actually finding shit to boycott? It's like pulling teeth to find a pi zero 2 around here. That said, https://pine64.com has some great SBCs. Do it because you can get the hardware. If you're going to boycott every product that has hired an ex-police officer, you're going to have to stop buying a lot of stuff. But yeah, someone at the foundation's social media department needs to learn to read the room. What a shitty intro.

@jshmlr I'm a fan of the input box that has text of that sort in it. the text clears when input is focused, or remains greyed. Something like[ input tags here. hit enter to create ]and then when I click it goes blank.

@jshmlr That might be a bit much for on instruction line, but that's pretty much the idea I had yeah.

I hope people start considering putting tags/cw on some of the banking news that is coming out. Yes, the system is broken, and built around infinite growth and much bullshit and... lots of decent people who work these startups are wondering if their paycheck is going to clear. Compassion. Please.

I humbly submit that The Illuminatus! trilogy become standard textbook to give people defenses against dumb fucking conspiracies.

@Language1230 And what I am saying, if you had read the post, was that we need to be sympathetic towards people impacted through no fault of their own. This isn't an invitation for a lot of hot takes, which are ultimately the problem I was complaining about.

@tek 100% this. It can literally save someone's ass at review time during a down economy too.

@tek Yeah, I doubt there's a lack of bus driver demand. I'm just thinking of a time back in the bad days of dotcom when a manager had to make a keep/layoff decision and the thing that flipped their decision was positive reviews from customers on support cases.

@controlfreak @feditips I think we all knew this was coming when Eugen doubled down on his "local timelines never mattered" bullshit a while back. I am not surprised, but remain disappointed. This mirrors a lot of the islanding and fracturing that happened in the early days of irc and then chat applications (Rest in... obscurity? XMPP)
