A geologist and archaeologist by training, a nerd by inclination - books, films, fossils, comics, rocks, games, folklore, and, generally, the rum and uncanny… Let’s have it!

@[email protected] being nice helps establish the “tone”, but I’m not sure that wouldn’t change with another “API event” on Reddit that results in another, larger mass migration.
The way I see it - the early adopters set the tone of a place and new arrivals are more likely to adopt that approach. So it is important to be kind now, so people will be kind later.
Group hug!

Report it - people jumping straight to insults are trying to shut discussion down which really isn’t acceptable.
Yeah, let’s show them! … how to be decent human beings by example.
Here is a discussion on Tumblr equivalents.
Sorry, English is not my first language, bit I thought the post is somewhat clear?
English is my first language and it was clear to me.
I already mentioned that there are edge cases. Edge cases do not discredit foundational frameworks that define reality.
But when you are trying to define or classify things it is the edge cases that are key. It is at the edges that we hope to find a clear divide between one set of things and another.
Unfortunately, with sex chromosomes, their impact on development and that effect on performance it feels like the more we know the less we understand.
International sporting bodies have huge resources and access to the best experts in the various fields and they can’t come up with a good way to classify male and female. I could, at least, see the logic in their going for testosterone exposure during puberty as being a useful guide, although it is complex and rather arbitrary, but there are counter-arguments to that which suggest it isn’t useful. So the sporting bodies seem to be falling back on chromosome testing, which is no guide at all to performance and seems to be favoured because it is easy to test for - like the drunk looking for his keys under a lamppost because the light was better there.
Can confirm. When we took over the running of feddit.uk migrating the images took forever as it was around 300GB.
Perhaps Friendica because it plays nicely with following groups (Threadiverse) and profiles (most of everything else).
You might be able to self-host WordPress if it is just a matter of importing. As WP is federated, you can, presumably cross-post it from there.
You might want to spin up your own PieFed instance. There is someone using that service for a similar art project - they are grouping images into similar sets and displaying them like an image board. You can pin certain images and/or change the default sorting.
Reddit is worse, it is utterly indifferent to us. We’re just the skulls getting crushed under the treads of Skynet’s tank.
I hope people keep maintaining international trade relations, or else polititians may exploit it to push nationalism.
Oh indeed, we’re part of the larger [email protected] movement, unfortunately, post-Brexit it will cost us more.
And we support FOSS from anywhere.
*The exception is buying goods from your close proximity, which might be environmentally beneficial
Yeah, you do want to reduce the air miles and your carbon footprint.
Got to support those penguins.
I can do but I thought that was for giving established communities a bit of love.
Time for a Ghost community?
Most people have good qualities that make them attractive (if you have none then that might be something to work on). Just treat women like they are ordinary human beings (which they are) - ask questions, listen to the answers, check back with them at a later date to see if that thing they mentioned worked out, offer to help if they have a problem, etc.
