On Thursday, Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva accused Israel of committing premeditated genocide in the Palestinian territory of Gaza during a joint press conference with French President Emmanuel Macron in Paris.
When an ominous cosmic event swallows the icy home of a small space critter, he must find refuge among a group of luminous creatures watched over by a mysterious celestial being.
Israel arms ISIS-jihadists to fight against Hamas just like they armed Hamas to fight against the PFLP.
You may ask yourself “when will they ever learn?” but that's assuming the Israeli government's goal is to live in peace. Why should they need to learn, when arming terrorist groups that destabilize and escalate this conflict isn't a mistake?
Considering how much genocide, ethnic cleansing, settler colonialism and hence the expansion of their borders they have been able to justify due to hamas; considering their main argument behind stopping the entry of humanitarian aid was because they were sometimes raided by terrorist militias, which as it now turns out they funded, it was a worthy investment.
never forget that benny n. said explicitly how much he/israel had benefited from 9/11. terrorist there, terrorst here... benny n gets to win no matter what.
@unknownpseudoartist we both put out music with cats. you and i understand the internet 😛 i also like that you have your own site! im at work but got a tab open for you. ill be checking out your tunes when i get home!
also, you should check out indieart.support and shout out with your artist details @hello to get on the directory!
so im inclined to scold you for all your self-deprecation but then i would be a hypocrite. but i do like this part:
"Basically this is that kind of music you'd expect to find in a random MySpace or Soundclick profile in the 2000s. That kind of thing you'd get 128k MP3 downloads in a static HTML site. That kind of stuff that would normally be done by some passionate young person who just discovered they can do cool stuff to share online in a cyberworld full of people willing to discover and listen more random, creepy stuff like this. "
and i think you'll find plenty of company around here. especially as a #caturday-er.
anyways, you do a really good job with bass sounds. the overall tonal quality and just getting bass synth sounds. often times better than actual bass guitar but let's not awaken the bassists, right? i aint tryna die right before the weekend. favorite track on the placeholder of something... i think gotta be absurd. ill check out the other album after this last listen.
hey thanks a lot for listening! this means a lot to me ❤️ (even if I don't agree with my fake bass sounding any better than real bass haha)
Regarding the self-deprecant comments... well, it's complicated, but let's say I was in a bad time and dealing with a bad situation in certain communities regarding harsh criticism and I was tired of that, and just felt the need to break with that and go more my way without any pressure. Feeling a lot better about that already, so no worries 😀
thats good to hear. theres a lot of pressure from our economic and societal systems to make the creation of art something that turns a profit, or needing to be a certain amount of prolific. all nonsense. the point of making art is the part where you are making it. that journey, that mindset. the best therapy, imho (or at least thats what i keep telling myself bc hell no i;m not paying for therapy lol).
heck yeah! Couldn't agree more. In fact sometimes it's not even about economic stuff but more like some folks pretending to be Yngwie Malsteen (even when Yngwie seems to be not that arrongant anymore haha), or obsessing on production/mixing (which can be kinda elitistic, since oftentimes that's more a matter of money and expensive tools rather than simply doing stuff). Art should be more about having fun and expressing things, not about bratting or obsessing on getting better at it!
and yeah, I like the idea behind the paragraph you quoted! I can't say I was a huge fan of everything that was done in the internet in the mid-late 2000s, and it wasn't the greatest times for many people (too much of bigot bullsh*t, you know). But when it comes to art and creatives stuff, definitively missing that special charm and the prominence of more amateur-ish attitude, in the best way. I just love the underground side of music and art 😀 and it's a pity some of that got lost.
lost or at least buried by all the gloss and shine of the corporate internet. there seems to still be a decent amount out there, you jut got a dig for it a little. like the artists we have here on the fedi, and all the artists @hello
yeah, that's my suspiction. After all, you wouldn't expect a random artist with 20 views/listens to get noticed by the algorhythms, right? It's a huge relief to find a place where that couldn't matter less 😀 in fact I'm kinda overwhelmed by the lots of messages I got all of a sudden when I posted that post the other day haha
totally! I'm glad I decided to jump into this place. There's a vibe that reminds to that late 2000s internet (like forums and blogs) in cultural/entertainment terms while keeping up with the times for the more important stuff (like ethics, diversity, etc). So it's like combining the best of both old and current times without the bad of neither 😀

The team working behind the scenes on ActivityPub at Ghost grew from 3 to 8 in 2025, and now we're ramping up our work to launch things officially in Ghost 6.0 in the next month.
Yet another site or project where you read endless paragraphs that talk abstractly about ideas and concepts instead of just showcasing what the delivered product/app actually is or looks like. Drives me up the goddamn wall sometimes. Why should I be interested, you know what I'm saying?
Edit: alright guys, every person doesn't have to reply saying what it is. I'm not actually interested anymore. My point was to whine about how it wasn't clear from their home page. 👍 When I realized it was too hard to figure out what this is, I lost interest.
At least WP is free, Ghost is as “free” until you find out its only useful with the rest of the payed platform. editorjs.io is much better in that sense.
OP linked to an entry in their newsletter. If you check out their site, they are being pretty clear that they're in the business of "Independent technology for modern publishing", stating in pretty big letters that "Ghost is a powerful app for professional publishers to create, share, and grow a business around their content. It comes with modern tools to build a website, publish content, send newsletters & offer paid subscriptions to members.".
Reading their newsletters would get boring fast if they started every single one of them with repeating what they are.
Beautiful, modern publishing with email newsletters and paid subscriptions built-in. Used by Platformer, 404Media, Lever News, Tangle, The Browser, and thousands more.
Ghost is a powerful app for professional publishers to create, share, and grow a business around their content. It comes with modern tools to build a website, publish content, send newsletters & offer paid subscriptions to members.
For me, this first paragraph from the site says clearly that they are a tool to build sites and sell content.
It needs a show case, to show me what it can do! Like, what is the output? Does it spit out a React project? Does it post directly to a hosted CMS type service? What!
There's just too much of what we in Sweden would call "word shitting". Lots and lots of words that say fuck all.
I ended up subscribing to @feed@404media.co (404 Media) after following them on Mastodon. It just feels like a more direct way of following media that fits with how I consume stuff online these days.
It’s easier to understand conservatives when you realize that they operate on a system of vertical morality while we operate on a system of horizontal morality. In a system of horizontal morality, something is right or wrong based on whether it causes harm, violates consent, etc regardless of the social status or class of an individual. In a system of vertical morality something is right or wrong based solely on whether an authority figure says so or not
This is why they say things like, “without god what’s to stop you from going around murdering and raping?” In their system of morality, those things are only bad because an authority said they were bad. And when the authority says they are okay, they’re okay. Which looks inconsistent to us, but makes perfect sense to them.
This is why they also think that abolishing the police would result in the purge for example. They can’t conceptualize morality independent from authority
So when you wonder, “How can they flip flop on liking Elon?” It’s easy: Elon is good when their authority tells them he is good and he’s bad when the authority tells them he is bad. It doesn’t matter that Trump is a rapist or a cheat or racist or anything else, because the authority said he is good. That is the only requirement. Everything is built on appeal to authority

So some Democratic politicians actually got the memo, but clearly others are flailing. To help them out, I’d like to offer my sage political wisdom. Try the following message:
1. Kick Trump out. 2. Tax the living shit out of billionaires. 3. Use the money to get folks back on their feet and clean up this mess.
Just that. Simple and direct, no fussing around. Give that a try and see how it lands. Float a trial balloon in some minor swing district election and see what happens.
Just to clarify: this is not a complete list of things I want for the world. This is not even a complete political platform. It’s just a single simple, clear, core message that I suspect would work much better in elections than that fash-lite mush all the Newsomesque political consultants are oozing out of their pores right now.
It has not occurred to anyone that a person who acts inconsistently with an oath of office never genuinely bound themselves by it. Revisiting the fundamental conditions for giving power has never been seen as a ground for simple action. And yet, that is what all this is about.
It requires reading the Constitution in a way that allows a betrayal of the people, and a lack of integrity, to act as grounds for dismissal.

i don't think i can ever go back to watching those shitshows tbh not now knowing that majority of it is slop(with denuvo mind you) if not outright subversive leftoid shit
its not nearly as bad as the last couple of years (still mostly shit tho) im too apathetic at this point and just get satisfaction knowing most of them will bomb

Occasional renewal of the prediction that Trump will not finish his term, and I think it's even plausible he'll be out by the midterms.
The current situation is unsustainable, even for the people who are benefiting most from it. Those people will, of course, try to keep him in place as long as they can, but it's a losing battle. With a lot of ugly tradeoffs in the meantime.
Sadly, Dem leadership are among the ones who believe they benefit. They don't even try to hide it. Schumer and Jeffries, like the fash faction and theocrat faction, want to keep Donny Littlehands in the Oval Office as long as possible, because they think that's what's best for them. Lesser techbros will start turning on Trump now, with Musk and Thiel paying the bills, but they can't do much harm without getting hurt back. And the bigger techbros (Goog, MS, FB, Apple, Amazon) are basically part of the Big Bidness faction. That faction isn't going to defect until the very very last minute.
BTW if you want to be horrified go look for Jeffries's response when a journalist asked if he was planning to do anything about Trump having crossed Jeffries's "red line" of congressional arrests. When I say he'll be much worse than Pelosi that's what I mean. Pelosi was good at procedure and knew how to use money to whip. The only things Jeffries is good at are passing the buck and reassuring donors.
That means the rest of us just have to hope we survive, and that midterms don't get derailed by a terrorist attack, and Trump doesn't get martyred in a way that cements GOP power, or any of a dozen other obvious that could wreck the possibility of Dems regaining control of one or both chambers.
only correction, i would say pelosi was good at reassuring the donors, jeffries is not. which makes jeffries incompetent both to us (the people) and the donors. remember that after the election, jeffries went begging the tech donors for money and direction (bc what else is dem leadership good for?) and the donors pretty much told him to f off, they're team trump now. play stupid games, win stupid prizes. but its truly incredible that jeffries is an even worse orator than pelosi. imagine what he'll be like when hes 80 years old.
I kinda felt like defending him with "yeah but what donors want now is probably for him to be as completely incompetent and useless as possible, like Schumer" but I get what a crappy defense that is 😁
fyi all you tech bros salivating over some kind of "ai assistant" that's intelligent enough to understand you and act on your desires, but for some reason doesn't need to be treated with respect or be given any sort of compensation at all...
hate to break it to you but you're reinventing something again, and it's definitely not something good

Been off my anti depressants since April now and now I feel like I've reached a state of craziness. I've developed an unhealthy obsession with someone (who hopefully doesn't know, but I did send a Facebook request), and am not sleeping at night. If I don't work through this over the weekend, I'm afraid it is back to the Zoloft for me.
Keep checking my fb to see if the request is accepted, and I'm guessing it will not be. Keep checking said persons active status on Teams at work. Keep trying to walk past said person. I am a psycho.
Also in the strangest coincidence, when I tried messaging said person at work, it actually failed to go through. You can't block internal people so that was fucking weird.

@notype @barubary well im a third of the way through the course, the lesson is on regex, although they already covered /regex/g and /regex/i in a earlier lesson. it doesnt seem to complicated for where i am at right now, its just they didn't really explain it. just threw it out there along with a method that they didn't teach me either. that's what really threw me off is i didn't realize the .match() method was also returning the search elements.
@notype @barubary I came at this a different way, and wondered what the heck the /d modifier is doing. Turns out:
1) W3schools is completely wrong about what it does (shocker, I know 🙄); and 2) All it does is add a particular extra bit of information to the return value.
I'm getting my info from stackoverflow.com/a/73947884, to which I am greatly indebted, and major props to SO user Andrejs. I reproduced their work with the text and RE under consideration here. 1/2
I set txt to 'aaaabb', then ran these. Note that the only difference in output is the presence of an "indices" array when /d is used, and its absence otherwise. That is all.
I've been using JS professionally for 20 years now and never needed anything like /d. You can safely ignore it. 2/2
@kagan @notype @barubary oh wowwwww. yeah i think i need to give up on w3s. its just... it seems like a much better "intro to.." resource than mdn. mdn seems much more accurate but its sometimes kind of dense when starting out from scratch.
@notype @kagan @barubary no. shit. ive been learning from a damn robot. ugh. i just need to grab a for dummies book or something. internet searching is fine for specific answers but i need some sort of syllabus to go off. i got problems staying focused without one.
@notype @kagan @barubary plus searching is how i ended up on that crap. the corpos own all the top search results. i learned html and css from a billboard.
whatever you do with these old documents, skip over the software specifics (which are outdated) & go directly to the regex syntax (which has barely changed since).
once you understand the regex basics .[](|)[{,}?*\ you'll find easy to move to the tricky parts. you can use regex in pretty much every computer language there is. even adobe indesign uses regex. good luck 😀
also, what your script seems to do is return the full string as found (aabb) followed by each parenthetised segment (aa), (bb). if you want it to return only the whole string, you have to query result[0]
@notype well you've certainly put it to good use ;) this is me learning programming like i promised you i would... over a year ago? i keep my promises but my timeframes are always whacked lol

Xorg and Wayland competing with one another to be the best. People choosing whatever they like like.
What's really happening:
Intentionally not merging pull requests that improve xorg. Closing merge requests and issues en mass. Apps dropping support for xorg and forcing people to use wayland.
Instead of "let the best person win", it's "let me win".
@istvan @bonifartius Yes, Wayland, LLVM, JavaScript, Canada Anubis, Rust and bloating up Linux are all proprietary schemes to slowly make software slower and slower and more bloated, with the end goal of the user not being able to run anything without the latest hardware that is carefully handcuffed to only run proprietary software.
There is no need for one size fits all. I will never ever run "40,000" programs on my computer. The one size thing and many of the assumptions made about how computers are designed and built are corporate priorities of scaleable lowest cost, not the concerns of humans that want to use computers.
@istvan @bonifartius Support for more than 4GiB of memory on a system that runs many programs is necessary - after all a computer with the power to run 40,000 programs at the same time cannot do so if there is a 4GiB memory limit.
Although that can be achieved even on a 32 bit processor with nasty hacks, such kind of cruft is best avoided.
The x86 instruction set and the way arguments are passed is horrible - the AMD64 instruction set solves many of the issues and is quite pleasant in comparison.
The X32 ABI may be of interest to you, as that is mostly 64bit, except with 32bit pointers - meaning the AMD64 semantics can be used, but programs are limited to 4GiB of memory (but you can also run specialized software that needs more memory than that with 64 bit pointers too).
