Brb uploading a 5GiB file from /dev/urandom to make sure there isn’t a byte of space left in OneDrive for them to do this to me.

I’ve even experienced this in the 3D printing community, where I design a highly parametric model and put lots of effort into making all of the major dimensions and qualities parameterized and dynamically adjustable, with lots of bounds checking and value clamping, with all the parameters at the top of my scad file with comments explaining what each variable does.

And then someone comes along to remix my model, says I don’t want to install openscad, and just scales the entire output stl to change the dimensions, squashing all the features of the model in the process (instead of having the size gracefully adjust with all the features moving around to account), and leaving anybody starting from their work with a hard to remix mesh with no parameters.

Has anybody made a matrix app that looks like a discord clone? That sounds easier since the federated rich text chat is already made, the current clients don’t really appeal to the discord crowd.

Lemmy really needs pixelfed’s naive bayes spam detection, it would be able to easily classify the new accounts after classifying one post as spam, then it would be 0 seconds wasted.

Correct, I only use American for the US because I don’t think there’s a term like “Mexican” or “Canadian” for the US other than “American”. US-ican or United States-ican doesn’t quite roll off the tongue.

It’s very American that one of the pages nearby me is a well known mass shooting.

I think that text is from melroy, so according to him. From seeing his interactions in the kbin issue tracker I get somewhat of an egotistical impression of him, because he would often take an issue that has just been opened and not triaged or discussed what the best fix is, and he would open a PR with how he thinks it should be fixed, and it sounds like his frustration is that his hasty PRs weren’t getting merged quickly because people wanted to come to a consensus.

Maybe I’m just reading into it but it felt like he just wanted his name on something and it wasn’t happening with kbin.

Edit: I want to add that I don’t mean to shit on him as a dev or as a person - it’s possible that I’ve only seen a one-sided view of his interactions as a busy contributor who just wants to whittle down the issue list as fast as possible and that he’s got good intentions, and regardless he seems like a very capable dev. It’s just that based on my perusing of issues and discussions I’ve come across, it doesn’t seem fun to work with him to contribute, and if I were to treat the contributors list as a scoreboard and had the goal of having my name on as many commits as possible, I think it would be hard to tell us apart. I was just going to keep my thoughts about this to myself but I’ve seen some other people comment similar things in other threads about mbin so maybe it’s worth sharing my skepticism about mbin. Take from it what you will.
