I’m surprisingly level-headed for being a walking knot of anxiety.

Ask me anything.

I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks

That’s a mouth full and may not fit in the available headline space. Can we compromise with an et al ?

I have no idea, TBH. I’ve always bought them in bags where they could “breathe”, and those all eventually start growing (rather than rotting/going bad) if I forget about them in the pantry for too long. The only ones I’ve ever bought that were plastic-wrapped were big, baking potatoes. Maybe it keeps them from sprouting for a bit longer?

I’ve always called that the “look at the distraction!” strategy, but I like the cat one better.

Didn’t realize that was the same thing. There’s a lot of fuckery going on right now, and I guess I just lost track.

Whoever’s running the vote manipulation bots doesn’t like this post:

I normally don’t concern myself with such pettiness, but someone is clearly doing this with an agenda and thinks they’re operating in the shadows. So just trying to add some context to the downvotes where I can.

Update: Lol, they just spun up https://ttrpg.network/u/umwagkpn to give it another downvote.

Update 2: https://lemdro.id/u/dybyzgnn spun up and tagging in.

Update 3: https://lemmy.cafe/u/evtmowdq reporting for duty 🫡

Not a word about what, if anything, is going to be done about that.

The Guardian reports that the emails reveal a “behind-the-scenes network of county election officials throughout Georgia” who are "coordinating on policy and messaging to both call the results of November’s election into question before a single vote is cast, and push rules and procedures favored by the election denial movement."

HTC tried to make it usable with their TouchFlo (I think that’s what it was called) skin, but once you veered out of that, it was a mess, yeah. lol.

Which is kind of sad because under the hood, it was pretty advanced for its time.

I don’t think I’ve ever had them mold/rot on me (unless they were in plastic packaging). They usually start growing before that, and I’ll sometimes plant them lol.

Regardless, all of us combined are a grain of rice compared to the real meat and potatoes AI trains on

Absolutely. It’s more a matter of principle for me. Kind of like the digital equivalent of leaving fake Amazon packages full of dog poo out front to make porch pirates have a bad day.
