Xenophobia.

I’ll generally remove posts without questions if someone reports them, but if they aren’t bothering anyone enough to report it and I don’t notice that they’re in this community, then IMO, they’re not doing much harm.

But if and when the community gets bigger, signal to noise ratio becomes a lot more important when it’s harder to keep up with everything. But we can cross that bridge if and when we get to it IMO

Government drones aren’t real!

This is a screenshot of the activity in this community. It looks ok to me…

The way I see it is the rules exist to improve the experience of the community. They set guidelines to help us achieve that. The rules aren’t the final source of truth though, the quality of the community is.

So, if you see something that breaks the rules and is pulling the community down in doing so, use the report function, and highlight it.

If it’s breaking a rule, but not harming the community, then just let it fly.

I have no interest in enforcing rules for the sake of rules. I see them more as guidelines for fostering a better community, and that’s the lens through which I moderate.

Yay! 4.8 supports my camera! I can finally stop running darktable nightlies

I used Dreaming Spanish, which uses natural comprehension and teaches entirely in Spanish, with no translation. It’s not as fast as some alternatives, but it matches my learning style, and has given me a neutral accent when I speak

Digikam. It supports grouping (or stacking as it’s called in Lightroom) by filename, so you can auto group RAW and JPG. It has hot keys for flagging rejects/approvals during initial inspections and review, so you can just fly through them.

Photoprism is not suitable as part of a post editing workflow. It’s a gallery for displaying and searching your photos after they’ve been sorted and edited.

I scored the highest tertiary entrance rank in my school without studying a day in my life and had my pick of any university course or career. I went to university, and excelled at exams, but because I had undiagnosed ADHD and had never learned time management, I couldn’t cope with assignments that couldn’t be thrown together at the last minute in my lunch break. I was academically excluded.

So there was that. Basically, my life has continued to look like some variation of that experience since then :P

I’m just here for the Shadowrun screenshot in the video…

There’s a few “Your question here” questions…

Ours was 5 months ago!

If you think growing pot like that is hard, wait until you try and smoke it!

Hot. Damned hot.

30c to 32c is my ideal

Don’t worry, not being able to turn left is all right

The joys of being a 2E student.

Gifted, with undiagnosed ADHD.

Flew in to university without ever learning how to organise my time. Smashed every exam university put in front of me. Failed every form of written assessment that required time management and planning, instead of just knowing the answers. Even after they put me on academic probation and I understood how serious it was, I couldn’t fix it, because I didn’t know I had ADHD at the time, and had never learned the organisational skills required, because I’d never needed them to succeed academically before.

This is kinda the opposite of what you’re asking for, but might address the reason that you’re asking the question?

CachyOS is an Arch based distro, but it precompiles many arch packages (and some AUR packages) in several versions, optimised for either x86_64-v3 or x86_64-v4.

So if your goal is “optimised” rather than “compile yourself” it might be worth looking at

Please report back once you’ve tried it.

Well, assuming you survive…

It might not necessarily be that the instances are stricter, it could also simply be that those instances are targeted more often by hate/trolls so interact with those instances more often.

It’s both of those things IMO. Being stricter comes about because of being targeted more. It’s not always just responsive reactions to abuse. Often it’s pre-emptive defederation even before abuse is received, just to ensure it never happens. And that’s the part where “stricter” comes in to it, because a lot of generalist instances are happy to respond only if and when another instance becomes a problem

At least, that’s how it works on the queer instaces I admin :)
