Constance Variable (lambadalambda@social.heldscal.la)'s status on Wednesday, 02-Nov-2016 14:23:43 UTC Constance Variable @dwmatiz I'm using it as my main client most of the time and I'll have a mini-hackathon with two other people on the weekend. I'll make a public version available after that weekend. If I don't, publicly shame me please. -

Constance Variable (lambadalambda@social.heldscal.la)'s status on Thursday, 27-Oct-2016 14:25:01 UTC Constance Variable @clacke @steve It's true, but it doesn't make for very good reading. The book is mainly about the struggle of two teams who want to be the first to make some observations. -
Constance Variable (lambadalambda@social.heldscal.la)'s status on Thursday, 27-Oct-2016 12:03:34 UTC Constance Variable @steve @clacke I read that, too. It's not bad, but ultimately unsatisfying because it boils down too 'we have no idea what dark matter and dark energy are'. -

Constance Variable (lambadalambda@social.heldscal.la)'s status on Tuesday, 18-Oct-2016 09:08:45 UTC Constance Variable This time people on lobsters are arguing with the OpenBSD guys to pleaaase accept pull requests on github. Also, not wanting to change a working system to please the hipsters is apparently 'toxic'. -

Constance Variable (lambadalambda@social.heldscal.la)'s status on Thursday, 13-Oct-2016 11:19:17 UTC Constance Variable In our time, political speech and writing are largely the defence of the indefensible. Things like the continuance of British rule in India, the Russian purges and deportations, the dropping of the atom bombs on Japan, can indeed be defended, but only by arguments which are too brutal for most people to face, and which do not square with the professed aims of political parties. Thus political language has to consist largely of euphemism, question-begging and sheer cloudy vagueness. Defenceless villages are bombarded from the air, the inhabitants driven out into the countryside, the cattle machine-gunned, the huts set on fire with incendiary bullets: this is called pacification. Millions of peasants are robbed of their farms and sent trudging along the roads with no more than they can carry: this is called transfer of population or rectification of frontiers. People are imprisoned for years without trial, or shot in the back of the neck or sent to die of scurvy in Arctic lumber camps: this is called elimination of unreliable elements. Such phraseology is needed if one wants to name things without calling up mental pictures of them. -

Constance Variable (lambadalambda@social.heldscal.la)'s status on Tuesday, 11-Oct-2016 09:58:45 UTC Constance Variable @fl0wn @hope @zeed @sharivegas I think I'll use matrix as the real time chat layer for my GS frontend... It's easy to use in web apps because it's just http/REST, you don't need the workarounds that XMPP needs. -

Constance Variable (lambadalambda@social.heldscal.la)'s status on Friday, 07-Oct-2016 23:08:35 UTC Constance Variable @delores here's the kicker: I'm not even into loli. (Although you might be the first one who noticed it's a pasta) -
Constance Variable (lambadalambda@social.heldscal.la)'s status on Friday, 07-Oct-2016 16:03:39 UTC Constance Variable controversial post:
i don't see how superhero comics aren't vigilantism. there's no way to justify it. you can say its a drawing but i mean its got people taking justice into their own hands outside an established legal system and that's what you're seeking out -
Constance Variable (lambadalambda@social.heldscal.la)'s status on Friday, 07-Oct-2016 08:19:56 UTC Constance Variable @nepfag @kro Before I came to GS, I never expected the overlap between Anime, Free Software and Antisemitism to be so large. -
Constance Variable (lambadalambda@social.heldscal.la)'s status on Thursday, 06-Oct-2016 11:44:05 UTC Constance Variable I want to work on GS.... but I have to do real work ;_; -
Constance Variable (lambadalambda@social.heldscal.la)'s status on Thursday, 06-Oct-2016 08:36:47 UTC Constance Variable @clacke @mikael @gargron As GS is just Atom feeds, you should be able to use any feedreader that can archive stuff. -
Constance Variable (lambadalambda@social.heldscal.la)'s status on Wednesday, 05-Oct-2016 20:02:28 UTC Constance Variable @hackernews @soloojos and surprise surprise, the startup echo chamber complains that it can't disrupt twitter because a) it can't make money b) it doesn't use the block chain.
