I miss UI themes having creativity and exploring new options, unlike now where your lucky if there is just a "dark mode"

Okay so to be clear I understand that emacs is A Lot to learn so not everything about it is for everyone

but I think elisp and the ability to define your own commands in the UI that have parity with built-in commands is something that I find myself wishing basically everything had

there was this brief period in the late '00s early '10s where the web was starting to have that character as people were building css/js combos that were basically operating as overlays on top of other sites at least somewhat seamlessly

but that seems to have pretty much disappeared

@tilton oh yeah like it was almost literally what I was raised on when I first started using computers in the 00s, I'm typing this from a mastodon-mode right now lol

Why doesn't anyone use /these/ anymore. I kind of hate that markdown uses *these* for italics when everyone knows that *this* is bold and /this/ is italics

in reply to Astryr the Cyber-Swynwraig

the real tragedy is that unlike asterisks text renderers typically consider slashes line break opportunities

so you get /
this/, sometimes

but yeah, partial agree. we like asterisks for italics personally, but for plain text emphasis slashes are highly underappreciatied

in reply to Astryr the Cyber-Swynwraig

I think it's because IRC's hey-day is about a generation ago. Same reason getting a plaintext export is often impossible, why stuff needs a 5Mbit connection, why a Web site downloading fonts from google is normal.

oh god, I'm the old guy yelling at the cloud.

spotify is (allegedly) using ai to generate generic music (allegedly) attributed to made up fake artists with generic names that (allegedly) suspiciously only exist on spotify to (allegedly) fill their famous pre-made playlists to (allegedly) send out to users to (allegedly) avoid having to pay actual artists and (allegedly) get 100% of the income instead of 30%

if you pay for a lot of streaming services, i promise you that if you cancel all of them you will be significantly less stressed and suddenly have a lot more money
in reply to nano :transfem: :omnisexual:

i used to pay for a lot of subscription services. apple music, discord nitro, telegram premium, etc, and it was EXTREMELY stressful suddenly seeing £10 drop out of my bank account and no longer having the headroom to buy something that i wanted

the only notable things i pay for now is my phone, my sim card, my internet, and google cloud storage, and ive never felt better mentally and had more spare money before

fuck etsy


Etsy is about to ban the sale of most sex toys and sexual content (ANY depictions of genitalia and sex acts). Effective July 29th.

Non-penetrable and non-insertable toys and kink gear will still be allowed (for example: restraints, clamps, harnesses).

Nudity for models will be banned, including "genitalia, anuses, gluteal clefts [a.k.a. buttcracks] and female nipples/areolas."
(A LOT to unpack here...)

There will also be a ban on any "sexual references to familial relationships" in articles up for sale, such as "daddy's slut" or "choke me, mommy".

Read more in this article:

And in Etsy's updated guidelines:

I've never used that fertilizer, it seems pretty pricy here in Canada. I didn't do a detailed calculation on dilution vs. overall cost though.

I have had good luck with Miracle-Gro Bloom Booster which I get in 1.5kg water soluble crystal form. I also use the tomato/fruit/vegetable one early in the season to promote green growth before flowering.

Caveat: I haven't looked at/analysed Miracle Grow products in any sort of detail against competitors, it's just what I've always used.

Been using Cryptpad for a little while, it's basically if you took MEGA's encryption methods, and Google drive, and put them together.

https://cryptpad.org

I might recommend it to everyone as a defacto Google docs replacement, but holy wow is it not only more performant and simple (no heavy interface), it also feels reliable in that "simplicity is better" way.

They have a flagship instance at https://cryptpad.fr, but you can self-host it, and collab on the same instance.

Share links include a key in the fragment (#) part of the url to decrypt it, and so the server never sees your stuff. It even has live updates despite that.

How well does it handle Office documents?

Because I still need to use those at work, and OnlyOffice is available only for x86, whike I am trying to use a RPi5.

LibreOffice is... not great for that, sadly.

in reply to __Miguel_

@nanianmichaels unsure, I feel like it could start to handle them well though, since they actually have a solid ground to make editing interfaces, and then gradually adopt OpenOffice's and Word's documents and such

Too much work, not generally motivated to play the game at all.

It is boring now because there's generally no reason to bring myself back to playing it. Forcing myself to play it will just make me not want to play it more
