cybre.space end of life update; tldr delayed to jan 1
some users have had issues exporting their account backup archives, so to make sure i can communicate with users until all issues are resolved i will be delaying the read-only phase of the cybre.space end of life to january 1st, 2023. (also because there's a lot going on in my life right now and i want to make sure i can respond promptly to issues that might arise)
to be clear: you will still be able to export backups after the site goes read only. i just want to make sure people have a way to reach me if they encounter problems.
it's a framework laptop. really good laptop. i don't own anything more expensive than it otherwise i would offer to sell 49% of that too
if you own a "stock" and think it's worth anything i would like to sell you 49% ownership of my laptop. see what you can do with that

What the 76 in System76 stands for
I learnt this the other day and ugh..
Please tell me I'm not crazy for thinking this is... I don't even have the words for it.
"In reference to the American Revolution, the 76 in our name declares our independence from proprietary empires through the freedom that open source technology provides. Will you join us?"

MP3's IDv3, and by derivation OGG and FLAC can store pictures of type "A bright coloured fish". And there is LITERALLY NOTHING on the internet to explain why picture type 17 is a fish. I've asked the FLAC mailing list, but if you know anything please let me know!

Decorated Streetcar, from the series The Enthronement Ceremony in November 1928 (Tokyo) A.D. 19283 Japanese Color lithograph
going back and forth on whether I want to replace this account
i will happily give up my pirated movies if it means that it's virtually impossible for nazis to organize over the internet
what i hope can come out of this whole kiwifarms situation is to completely destroy this idea that the internet should be this free libertarian unregulated place or whatever

joe biden should put the gas prices back up
hmm i might not make a new account to replace this one. might just shut this down and keep my smaller presence on typespl
is cybre.space the biggest instance so far that's been shut down?
alright, well
