Hoy, en "cosas que me extraña no haber hecho antes": me armé una cuenta repetidora de noticias sobre mi natal Santa Ana. Sigue los RSS de la Municipalidad, el EMAI y el periódico local por el momento. En el Fediverso: @santaana En Bluesky: santaana.azkware.net.ap.brid.gy

Scalpers snapped up over ninety percent of the tickets for the rapture, leaving the faithful doomed to seven years of tribulation, or scrabbling to purchase salvation on the secondary market. Ticketek has denied deliberately facilitating this situation by failing to weigh the souls of purchasers […]

Technically feasible indeed. youtube.com/watch?v=v49tYBmnnF… #VisualBasic #excel #KellyRowland

I wonder if somebody went and made a #VisualBasic macro to send SMSs via #excel, just to prove that a certain scene from that music video by #KellyRowland#visualbasicis technically feasible. ew.com/kelly-rowland-addresses…

How long until the #Arduino standard officially becomes proprietary hardware, with patent litigation enforced by #qualcomm#arduino? Them saying "Arduino will preserve its open approach" smells like an empty promise. qualcomm.com/news/releases/202…

Nice to know that #amazonprimeday is here, but considering I'm currently broke, and who's exactly benefiting from it, just remember the words of a certain reviewer whose name escapes me: you'll always get the maximum savings if you buy nothing

We appreciate that certain politicians have recently admitted their naivete in entrusting the voices of their governments to corporate / for-profit social media. To these politicians, we say: https://joinmastodon.org/hosting

Update: turns out that there's one of those pesky non-commercial clauses on this project that, unfortunately, turns this whole project into #openwashing (unless the clause is time-limited or there's a stretch goal to make it properly #copyleft#openwashing). #inkjet

The surprising part is that an open-source inkjet printer took so much longer to release than an open-source full 3D printer. I wonder if it was because of patents. crowdsupply.com/open-tools/ope… #Inkjet #OpenSourceHardware

The canceling of ICEBlock is more evidence, were any needed, that the Web is the platform of the future, the only platform without a controlling vendor. Anything controversial should be available through a pure browser interface. #uspolitics

It's pretty clear from the #bluesky CEO's shitposting that she really would rather not have all those uppity trans folks and their friends on the platform. Instead she'd prefer to proudly talk to investors about how even J.D. Vance has an account. It's the digital town square! Everyone is […]

Serious question: to the few people that followed #DigimonStoryCybersleuth specifically as a competitive game alternative to #pokemon, how do the new systems in #DigimonStoryTimeStranger compare to the prequel? Is it worth playing competitively? #TimeStranger #digimon

Note to self: see how is the #Wiktionary doing in that regard

Nice to see #OpenCloud slowly but surely reaching feature parity with #nextcloud and #owncloud. So far they have implemented calendars and contacts, an Android application, and support for #collabora#opencloudOffice - plenty enough for about 90% of NC users. opencloud.eu/en/about-us/press

Does anybody else think it's a bold move to give the #SuperBowl mid-time show to #BadBunny#superbowl an artist famously known for singing almost exclusively in Spanish? In one of the most US-coded yearly events, during the current political climate there?

As if there weren't enough reasons to boycott #ea (predatory transactions to the point FIFA took their license out, malware-adjacent anticheat that doesn't work on Linux, general labor malpractices), now they'll be financed by the same people causing a massacre on Yemen. Ah well.

A song about an exotic lady that seems to be from abroad but it turns out she's just from the middle of Texas, call it "The Girl from #Nacirema "

Gladly surprised to see that Jack Dorsey's #BitChat is an #opensource app. But I still wonder how does it compare to the preexisting app #briar#bitchat with a similar scope of syncing off-the-grid over Bluetooth.

1975: 3 channels and nothing's on. 1995: 150 channels and nothing's on. 2005: 64 million websites and nothing's on. 2015: 35 on-demand streaming services and nothing's on. 2025: 8 websites and streaming service parent companies and nothing's on.

"Who would have predicted this?" - Black women did. - Trans people did. - The *entire* disability community did. - The anarchists did. - Post-Evangelicals did. "Well why didn't I hear them." You did. But you disregarded us as "extremists" and "alarmists". And you are still calling us that.

gonna stop calling things illegal and instead call them legal-adjacent

Tired: the relationship between #neurodivergence and gender non-conformity Wired: Rainbow #Tylenol Kitsune^2 - Rainbow Tylenol

Just checked the news - a lot of European countries decided to start diplomatic relationships with #palestine today at the exact same time. Is there some particular significance in this date specifically, or was it just a matter of coincidence?

The old web was decentralized: - Newsgroups - Personal Websites - Bulletin board - Email as a service, not a platform - Internet relay chat (IRC) - Early blogs Then corporations arrived with money and lock-in, turning the internet into centralized ad farms (Meta, X, TikTok). Users became […]

It's hard to socialize when you're expected to have a certain degree of knowledge of pop culture, sports, and other hobbies to even make small talk. Where do I find my fellow boycotters of entertainment that refuse to separate the art from the artist, and instead separate themselves from the arts?
