Arcturus isn't going to file for US FDA approval for their #COVID #COVID19 self-amplifying mRNA vaccine. From their CFO Andy Sassine in their third quarter results: “The sudden changes in regulatory requirements by the FDA for COVID-19 vaccines have delayed the U.S. BLA filing for KOSTAIVE® […]

[falling asleep thoughts] I want a magsafe bra, so you can stick your phone on it when you don't have pockets

[uspol] This weight presses upon me every day. I am flooded with stories. There are so many I cannot remember them all; cannot keep straight who was gassed, beaten, abducted, or shot. I write to leave a record, to stare at the track of the tornado which tears through our city. I write to leave […]

heya devs, just respectfully asking that you make your pronouns field a free text field instead of a combo i don't care how many options are in there. i don't care if there is a link under the combo to ask for additions. just let folks type them in.

If you’re a user of Libby (the library app), consider before following their suggestion to type #inspireme into the search bar. It seems harmless, but it turns on an unrequested AI feature, & there is no way to reverse that. This comes courtesy of ProfHeyRochelle, who is now reasonably pissed […]

OH: I don't know how to feel about the only exercise I really get is fucking

seeing folks make bagels and english muffins makes us want to make those again, but mah spoons 😭

We've just released a bugfix for v0.127.0, so as @Alephcat suggested, we just *had* to call it v0.127.0.0.1... hopefully this doesn't break anything 🤪 https://github.com/manyfold3d/manyfold/releases/tag/v0.127.0.0.1 #selfhosting

@kouhai super cute 🤩

the Retropals streaming community has this word that means something that's a bit soft, round and cute; that word is "blomby". I keep forgetting that not everyone knows the word blomby. But together, we can make the world a little blombier (The origin is an old top-down racing game called […]

I miss the days when computers worked for us instead of capital

this loaf is so tasty, banger job

too few people have seen the message from their mail server that it's been four hours and the message has not been delivered, retries will continue for up to 5 days

LB: we have some trauma around actually wearing a fursuit, job related too, otherwise it's very tempting

I made a thing called Wellness Ping because someone I care about went silent and it took too long for anyone to notice. You get regular check-ins via email. If you don't respond, your emergency contacts get notified. Built it for anyone who might go missing and needs someone to notice […]

something just clicked for us, the reason authoritarians hate autism so much probably has to do with the stong internal sense of justice and the willingness to speak up about it as much as the ability to conform to their whims

No really we need to start playing gay porn in the gay bars again.

it's funny to me how self hosting is becoming popular again, for us it's always been about owning the hardware our data lives on. that hasn't stopped being true since we setup an old pc in a colo in 2003 to host email and web stuff. eventually we decided that was worth doing for everyone and […]

I really wish corporations/society were more understanding that you cannot make someone into a "morning person". "We want you here first thing in the morning!" No, you don't. I'll be grumpy, mean, slow, and disinterested in the aesthetics you want me to reinforce. I'm a programmer, not a […]

Me: why is everything so dusty? People who can adult: you have to dust. Me: what, like annually? Adults: no, more like weekly. Me: that can’t be right.

no joke I think the single most effective effort-to-result change that The Tech Internet could make for usability is to move the github readme above the github file list

I wonder, is there a good IDE plugin or tooling for writing helm charts? Using them is fine, reading them is kinda bad to awful, but writing them makes me want to rub sand in my eyes... #kubernetes #helm

The complaint form Ofcom says you should use to report websites for violations of the #onlinesafetyact does not allow you to enter URLs, because it might be illegal for Ofcom to look at them. What is going ON over there.
