Dear twenty-something app developers with perfect eye-sight: Stop putting tiny light grey on dark grey text. Someday you will understand.
Every programming language has a way to do a thing that is simple, straightforward, well supported in the syntax, and widely considered to be bad practice.

Oh and by the way, do you know what telegram azov supporters' reactions to this was? I'll paste it here:
"Guys, we clear some things up, we get some a lot of messages about why an organisation connected with Azov sent a delegation to Israel, I’ll try to explain this as best as possible.
Organisation “defenders of Avostal families” recently sent a delegation on a public relations trip to Turkey, America, Europe , Saudi Arabia and Israel to showcase a documentary about Azovstal and spread awareness about release of Mariupol defenders. Of course we don’t agree with this and have to strongly condemn this, especially Israel, being no friend of Ukraine and the white race, on the comments of the post is many disappointed militants and former volunteers, after all Israel doesn’t even recognise the holodomor as genocide and Jewish journalists have spent years trying to undermine the regiment.
Now Azov is not what it used to be, Azov started as small unit with 300 guys from Odessa and Kharkiv mainly with strong radical politics, since a lot has changed, Azov is one of the biggest military formations in Ukraine, Maybe around 10-15k soldiers, we never say Azov itself is an openly NS or fascist regiment, in fact now probably only 25% of soldiers and volunteers hold radical and fascist views, still, this is more then you’d find in a military formation anywhere else in the world.
The fact is - Azov is the only place an openly fascist or NS could go to learn military skills, you would not be allowed in your own counties military nor FFL or anything else. Military skills and discipline you learn in the army and Battle conditions will be much needed for the coming struggles of our race, much more then political discussion and arguments on telegram.
Since the war other military units like MD and Nord Storm have formed which is good to see.
We had many comrades, friends and some of our guys from Madrid who fought in the battalion over the years and risked their life’s, we are disappointed in this latest political stunt by some outsiders and spokespersons who have never stepped foot inside a trench or had to dodge incoming artillery attacks but our support for Azov and Ukraine will never change.
We hope it clears some things up, thanks 88

Oh. my. god.
Madison Square Garden used facial recognition to identify and stop a mom from attending a Christmas show with her kid because she's an attorney at a firm who is engaged in litigation with them.
This is why it's not enough to just ban government and law enforcement use of #facialrecognition. There are so many ways private companies and even individuals can abuse #biometric #surveillance tech.
#BanFacialRecognition entirely. Yesterday.
I have to admit, it' a pretty nice little community we've got going here.
The local timeline is pretty nice to browse.
The winter solstice is tomorrow at 21:48 UTC. This is the time that the pole reaches its maximum tilt away from the sun.
Given that:
Is it the shortest day (sunup - sundown)?
Which night is the longest night (sundown - sunup)?

The problem with prediction markets is deciding the outcome. If you base it on an authority's decision, your market is a market on in the authority is captured by liars.
Has there ever been an algorithm invented that improved performance so much that existing hardware went from Unable to do the thing to Easily able to do the thing?

It’s never not going to be funny that after years of hype about crypto-metaverse-subscriptions disrupting web2 incumbents, the backstop to Twitter’s sudden implosion was volunteers recreating Usenet with RSS.

According to all known laws of society, there is no way a meme like John Mastodon should be able to federate. Its referent is too niche for the necessary momentum to get off the ground. #JohnMastodon, of course, federates anyway, because John Mastodon doesn’t care what humans think is impossible.

John Mastodon Meta
John Mastodon posts are happening literally across every instance I am a part of and they look extremely different depending on where I am on the fedi and this is why meme culture is so much cooler when there isn't a monolithic platform.

I expect the failure mode to look like email spam. Open relays being squeezed out of the network.
But we'll see.
The #nostr design looks nice.

It is just so hard to believe that we have had computers for this long and there is still not a common easy way to send a file from one computer to another.
These computers are on the same network. But what most people would do because it's the simplest, is to send it halfway across the world to another server just so it can come back to another computer sitting within reach of that person. That is the simplest way.
