Nice, same! Was also really positively surprised by how great the Android app(s) for XMPP feel.

Only thing not working yet for me is group chat creation. Oh well. Maybe this weekend.

On the other hand though, voice and video calls have worked flawlessly.

Awesome! And good job, looks great!

Why are there no screenshots in the README.

Yes I know I can just install the app, but for an app that primarily seems to define itself by its UI improvements over the established competitor, the screenshots are the deciding factor in the question “Should I download and install this?”, and no screenshots defaults to “no”.

So which is it: has this topic been taught as super important since childhood, or does no-one know about it?

Also pretty sure a 4 year old would have little problem understanding “gender expression is how you act and dress and talk, gender roles are what people think you should act and dress and talk like”. So, IDK, maybe have your nephew checked or something?

Are you confusing gender roles with gender expression again?

Spent 3 months in New Zealand on my own at 18. Had an absolutely fantastic time. Also came back home much more adult than when I left.

True… But I still would love to feel excited about the game again, and jump back into that “good” feeling. It’s a fun world!

I mean, how can we feel superior if we are not wasting huge amounts of time setting things up!?

Why, by boasting that it’s so easy, just look at that, it is only two options you need to set thanks to the 80 custom modules I’ve written to abstract the abstractions from nixpkgs!

I WISH I could put an /s here, but I cannot.

Interesting discussion on this from yesterday on the NixOS forums:

https://discourse.nixos.org/t/compliance-with-u-s-age-verification-laws/75791

Ehm… I’m also on Nixos and I’d say it’s super trivial.

services.openssh = {
  enable = true;
  settings = {
    PasswordAuthentication = false;
    PermitRootLogin = "no";
  };
};

users.users.<name>.openssh.authorizedKeys.keys = [ list of pubkeys ideally read from file in repo ];

Eh, the machine is actually in one of my wireguard nets anyways, but for different purposes.

The nice thing about SSH key-based access is, I either have the key and login succeeds, or I have no business trying to log in.

That’s why my remote root server bans via fail2ban after a single failed login.

Yes I’ve had to write support to get a KVM. Yes it’s still configured like this.

I actually had a fantastic time with ESO in the early game, because everything was new and fun and magical.

1k+ hours in I started feeling like that.

Yeah the UX for setting it up was not great. Conversely though, the UX for using it has been fantastic so far. My biggest concern was that the clients would feel dated (on Android esp), but no, they’re surprisingly polished!

Oh no! And just when I finally got around to setting up an XMPP server, too!

Yep.

Grew up with a steadfast pacifist / non-violent mindset. “Use words, not weapons”, “if you resort to violence, you’ve already lost”,…

The past 10 years have, well, awoken me, if you will. There’s an entire class of people that needs to be tabula-rasa-ed for the benfit, no, for the survival of the remaining 99%.

There literally is no other way.

More scary than that is that the technologies are starting to keep up or exceed their expectations.

Your last point resonates with me deeply.

It’s also one of the main drivers for my frustration with / rage against the unfair economic system we live in. Working 10-20hrs/week should be the goal, so we can have most of our days to ourselves doing the things we love.

I think the trans movement dug a deep hole for itself when it promoted transition surgery for minors.

We didn’t. Noone is even advocating for that. That is 100% a right-wing straw-man.

That works both ways though, when an “F” on the license is for someone who is 6’3" with quarterback shoulders and five-o’clock shadow.

Exactly, and now there’s gonna be a ton of beardy, muscly men who are forced to revert to an “F” on their licenses.
