To all,

Your reluctance to divest from X / Meta signals to the world that you care about your "reach" more than the stability and viability of the human race and/or the country you live in and/or your neighbor.

Thermonuclearly not sorry,

Dane.

Dear #Christians,

Life is too effing short to waste your time on a #church that winks at #Fascism.

If the sermon tomorrow skims the issue, activate your glutes, get up on your feet, and walk the hell out of there with your entire family.

We're not playin' anymore.

Given #Meta's recent awfulness, are you deleting your Facebook, IG, and/or (eww) Threads account(s)?

Please follow me at @rl_dane@polymaths.social

This account is now my backup account.

Oh, reasons:
1) I love the crazy people at polymaths
2) 500 characters per post isn't enough
3) I love being able to post in #Markdown, which vanilla Mastodon doesn't allow.
4) Nothing against fosstodon, kev, or mike. I love *this* community as well. That @joel guy, though... ;)

* Log into [gurk](https://github.com/boxdot/gurk-rs) for the first time in a couple weeks.

* Notifications absolutely go supercritical

Just FYI, I'm planning on migrating *this* account (@RL_Dane) over to Polymaths (@rl_dane@polymaths.social) at some point in the next few days or weeks. (/Il faut préciser!/, I know!)

I still love the Fosstodon community and all of the groovy nerdy stuff that goes on here. The local feed is probably the best I've ever seen in terms of quality *and* quantity.

But trying to maintain two identities is making me a *wee* bit cross-eyed. XD

Yo #Fediversians,

What do you do to find movie listings these days?

Any good movie search engines where you can find local listings by genre and rating (like nothing above PG-13, and no horror/gore, for example)?

#AskFedi #HiveMind

Haven't gone to see a movie by myself in years.

@foo I will always boost this

Now thinking about creating a movement to promote "hobbit software". Pretty chill, keeps to itself, tends to its databases, hangs out with other hobbit software at the pub, broadly unbothered by the scheming of the wizards and the orcs, oblivious to the rise and fall of software empires around them.

Oh, the Electron empire is going to war with the Reacts? Sounds ghastly, sorry to hear that. Me and the lads are off to the pub to run some cronjobs, wanna come along?

In cleaning up my street-mapping threads for publication on my personal site...

I've just folded in @RL_Dane 's quip that its no wonder Dijkstra hated GOTOs if he had a path-finding algorithm!

@RL_Dane @hugovk Maybe the simple index can help you out? https://docs.pypi.org/api/index-api/#list-all-projects

@kev,

Sad to hear that 500.Social is shutting down next month.

I'd be very interested to read about your experiences if you decide to blog about it.

Ireland has one week left to do potentially the funniest thing of all time.

My Christmas gift to myself this year was to get my Macintosh Portable up and running. Many thanks to
@techknight for the excellent repair work!

@NanoRaptor Why did you choose violence on Christmas Day?
