Sick, I've been checking in on this project periodically
Right now I'm using GNOME and antimicroX for mouse control via a gamepad quite happily, but the option of a dedicated interface for a controller would be rad!!
My understanding has always been that doctors shouldn't share peoples private health information with law enforcement either...
Like if the cops suspect you of a crime or planning a crime, they can't just go to your therapist and ask them what you talk about in your sessions...
I have no expertise but that has always been something I thought was protected. Maybe it's changed if it's demographic and personal experience rather than medical...? I have no idea
Love to see RISC-V getting more support! 😊
It did make her happy :)
Hope you have a lovely day!
Borzoi look so cute I love them so much 🥹
While I understand your argument that their ideology is defined in large parts by other factors than political alignment, I do see them talk about those kinds of things, specially through the lens of demanding communism as a resolution to those problems, or calling for the abolishment of the class that facilitates those problems 😅
Yeahhh, that seems like a significant oversight... That should really at least be an option.
I appreciate the accurate and incredibly sad understanding of radicalization
During the recording of the podcast The Show People, Fry, who previously narrated all seven Harry Potter audiobooks, said: "She has been radicalised I fear and it maybe she has been radicalised by TERFs, but also by the vitriol that is thrown at her.”
As reported by The Daily Mail, Fry continued: “It is unhelpful and only hardens her and will only continue to harden her I am afraid. I am not saying that she not be called out when she says things that are really cruel, wrong and mocking. She seems to be a lost cause for us.”
“I am sorry because I always liked her company,” he added. “I found her charming, funny and interesting and then this thing happened, and it completely altered the way she talks and engages with the world now.”
He continued by saying that Rowling’s “contemptuous” comments “add to a terribly distressing time for trans people.”
It saddens me to hear it sounds he has lost a friend- watching someone descend into radialization on a personal level is a distressing thing :(
Sending this to my best friend whose special interests are dog training and animal genetics, who this will make extremely happy, thank you! 😊

I know exactly nothing about the green party but like Jesus fuck you'd think leftists would have learned that's an important word to stop diluting given many of us are living under a system slipping into actual full blown fascism and it's an increasingly big problem globally
Its so painfully harmful to leftist causes to go around accusing your fellow leftists of being a nazi for not being your exact flavor of left. We all need to cut that shit out and grow some emotional and interpersonal maturity.
Had a really good time, I'm really glad we made signs :)
I'm not awake during the day generally so I'm kinda thinking now, maybe a way I can contribute is making signs for people to pass out or give away as a way I can contribute
There were people out handing out cookies and donuts which was pretty cool too :)
I was able to build some trust and now it's extremely friendly, I live in an apartment complex with no pet doors in central NC, should I bring it inside and see if it's chipped in the morning? I don't wanna leave it outside if it might have no home, but I don't wanna steal someone's cat
It looks like an adolescent or a late kitten? The collar has nothing on it, it's just a piece of white flexible plastic with a buckle...
Removed the "HELP" since people in the other thread were able to help me figure out that I should leave it be outside
Just be careful not to push things so hard you alienate people!
I find its most productive to share my joy or passion for things (like the Fediverse), and look for ways to relate those things to their interests and values, and if they get interested that's awesome!
Don't treat it as a failure if they don't they don't immediately switch. Don't pressure them. Don't try to make them switch while pretending you're just excited about it (people can tell when the subtext is that you want them to do something)
Share your joy, and if it seems like they have any interest or can connect with the appeal of it, ask them if you can set up an account with/for them! Not to try and make them drop Facebook, but to share why you care about this thing and participate in it together :)
That being said, it will of course depend a lot on the nature of your relationship with people. Your relationship with your mom might be such that she'd happily switch if she mostly just uses facebook to keep up with you and would be receptive to doing that a different way. And it's not necessarily bad to talk about why meta/facebook sucks, just be mindful of conveying preachyness, or making people feel overly presured to do what you'd like
