@coriander what if they just die a political / social death and not like, a real death
@coriander washington is pretty cool in a lot of ways but sometimes it really shows that half of the state is bankrolled by boeing/microsoft/amazon and the other half is basically idaho
@platypus @metacat [just to add to the confusion a bit (sorry), Level 2 has “date sets” which seem semantically accurate to what you’re saying…
e.g. [1968..1971] means ”some (single) date between 1968 and 1971”. this differs from 1968/1971 which specifies the interval not a single date in the set.
does anybody actually use these though?? um, idk; our legacy system was also 1968~/1972~ and we’re still trying to figure out how we want to handle those in the replacement
i personally wouldn't worry too much about the levels; i think in practice what a technology does/does not support will probably not align with the level distinctions made in the spec]
classic lesbian blunder
« “We may be both girls, but have you forgotten that I… have only recently discovered I like girls, too? Or that we have been dating for several weeks now?” »

« Neither girl seemed to notice that the clouds above them were beginning to grow in size and darken significantly … Before she could inquire further though, she felt something hit her head. Then another thing, then another. Tiny little plinks. The girl looked up, finally noticing the dark clouds as more water began to drip out of the sky. »

« Practitioners and proponents of OER can be viewed as paralleling the captive maternal dynamic in that they are trying to stabilize an educational system that has been systematically hollowed out through neoliberal practices. In their efforts to care for students, OER practitioners are creating mechanisms that enable the neoliberal state to continue implementing austerity measures. The labor of creating and deploying OER is, per James, labor that is being expropriated by the state. »
article is kind of loudly and inelegantly stating the obvious but this was a good paragraph

Wynaut? Wobbuffet!
i have the skillset to create “just run this on localhost and do your work there” kinds of workflows but instead i do everything in raw plaintext in a simple text editor and maybe run GNU Make at the end
Wynaut? Wobbuffet!
unsure whether i have an actual stance against “rich” editing experiences or just can’t be bothered to create them
@coriander idk i feel like growing up when people made reference to Icarus they were making a comparison with the greek myth but now everyone uses it to mean Icarian Personality Disorder and i think this is the worse timeline
@coriander mm, well, probably not exactly what you’re going for, but similar vibes in ways i think
@coriander (they are narnia’d when they take a tumble over the eponymous garden wall)
@coriander did you ever watch over the garden wall
re:①, i think the specific thoughts need to decend from material conditions which can only be analysed from the standpoint of a certain class. one of the big flaws in mastodon design from the beginning has been the assumption that all users are equivalent and have interchangeable needs, and i think step one should have been identifying actual classes of user, figuring out what their actual needs are, and then negotiating from there a system which can serve them
re:②, in my experience i think getting political power is the harder problem. there definitely were people thinking and talking about governance structures but none of them ever went anywhere because there was no power to execute on them
@gaditb hm, but what if i think the lack of definition and organization regarding specific “we”s is what ultimately prevented us from building solidarity across those differences and putting a better system in place
@gaditb who is your “we”

overheard on the telly
• so-called “hacktivist groups”
• china has been a country for a while
@coriander liking elder scrolls is pretty basic it's true but imagine having an avatar which is a pokémon
@coriander definitely not what i thought of when i read the phrase “beta wolf pack”
@coriander nobody gives a fuck if you pop into hot topic while you're at the mall, it's what the mall is FOR
