I usually compensate for the fact that I cannot go higher by going louder instead.

Indeed, thanks!

It should certainly spice up performances of John Cage's As Slow as (legally) Possible.

I'm sure you're aware of it already, but WineHQ provides a good overview over which software runs well under WINE. :)

Very educational, thanks for sharing!

What a sad faith for a website named after the glorious Dodo.

It's frustrating as fuck, I'm sure a lot of people have genuinely good intentions and just lack the knowledge to recognize what is valid criticism of the state of Israel and what is antisemitic garbage. The lines are increasingly blurred, which only serves to undermine criticism, endanger Jews, and promote Netanyahu's genocidal agenda.

Now, more than ever, it's important not to spread antisemitism, and to call it out, downvote, and report it when you see it. That shit never belonged anywhere in the past, and it sure as hell doesn't belong anywhere today.

Space lasers, no less.

Nope, and it doesn't seem to be on the agenda either. Kbin/Mbin is still the only platform(s) to try to bridge the two.

As genocide per definition requires internt, the argument that "whoops, it was an accident!" might actually hold up in court.

Of course it is not an accident, and central authorities (Netanyahu and his fascists) know exactly what they're doing. But this is what they're betting on, and time will tell if it works out for them.

The genocide convention and the state of Israel were brothers in birth, both being responses to the atrocities of the Holocaust. This time around they will be reunited as enemies.

But Twitter used to have a monopoly, and it doesn't any more.

I can now follow an official white house account directly from Kbin, whereas yesterday i would have had to sign up for either Twitter or Threads. That makes a difference. :)

That's @potus, for those on platforms that can view microblogs and that are not defederated from Threads.

Remember that comments are not federated to/from threads yet. If I understood correctly, likes are federated.
