Ahh, okay thanks for filling me in

Thats super interesting context, thanks for expanding on what they said!

What does make big rocks into little rocks mean?

Is it a known thing that they were dishonest about speaking to a lawyer with that situation?

I’ve been meaning to change instances and find a new home, if it’s known that they lied or mislead their users thats something I’d love to know more about

I am both horrorfied and delighted by this, thank you

$20 says they’re down bad for potato salad man

Thats a fucking work of art

If you’re knowledgable about CSS you could use the Stylish extension to customize websites, but given frutiger aero’s aesthetic, you’d probably have to add a bunch of images for ui elements, so I wouldn’t neccisarily expect it to be easy

Short of customizing stuff yourself, I think thats a really niche styling to be looking for, for already niche platforms. If you wanna check for other people’s CSS creations you can go to the userstyles.world site, or the older and I think now defunct userstyles.org, and search for mastodon, or any other sites you wanna check out themes for. There may not be many, customizing your websites with CSS stylesheets isn’t exactly a huge hobby, so the most themes are available for sites everyone uses (YouTube, Wikipedia, google, etc.). Any themes there you find could be used with the stylish extension, though it may require some extra work from the older site

As someone else who enjoys the y2k retro aesthetic, I hope you find something you enjoy :)

I didn’t mean for everything, I meant if crypto could ever fix its shit it could be a useful tool for folks affected by the issues with payment processors

But it would have to be stable in value, not suck for making transactions, and not be wildly wasteful

Does anyone know I’d proof of stake ended up being better than proof of work? I dont follow crypto but kept hearing that was supposed to improve things

Crypto is a big deal because it enables grifting and crime, but with how shit payment processors are and their tendency to use their position for censorship, crypto actually would be a potential way of solving that problem IF it werent ludicrously volatile and wasteful. But I have no idea if those problems could really ever be solved, or any progress has been made on those fronts

Wheres the revolution by depeche mode is pretty good :)

What a novel way for google to accomplish something kinda fucked up. The applications of ai truly know no bounds

Take care my friend!

If you live in a state where she can see you as a patient and time zones make sense, Meg Danforth at triangle cbt-i is by far the most capable sleep provider I have ever seen and specializes in treating insomnia, and I’ve seen a ton of sleep providers at this point (I have a circadian rhythm disorder but used to also have sleep onset insomnia). She may also be the best provider I’ve ever seen, in any speciality. Just looked up her new site (I used to see her through major hospital before she moved to her own private practice doing telehealth) and learned are only 150 cbti practitioners in the US certified by the board of behavioral sleep medicine, and she’s one of them. She’s also a grade A wonderful human.

Sending love, I hope you find a path to sleep that sucks less

Honestly thats fascinating and cool as fuck, thanks for sharing!

Yeah, the thing I enjoy mastodon for is mostly just art, since thats a place where I do wanna follow one specific person. I get some news there, and I follow some Foss projects, but mostly I use it for looking at are and telling people I like the stuff they make

Sleep issues suck ass, I’m sorry my friend. Sleep maintenance insomnia seems so much more challenging to treat than sleep onset insomnia

The reason this post connects with people is that it validates a very well understood connection between aging and difficulty sleeping

Turning around and invalidating people in response and telling people its their own fault is frankly silly. Just because you resolved your sleep/health issues by taking better care of yourself doesn’t mean everyone else struggling with sleep is just an unhealthy bum who should do better

Aging tends to bring with it sleep problems that aren’t caused by lifestyle factors associated with poorer health, and even in cases where someones health issues are because theyre not taking good enough care of themselves, telling those people its their own fault generally overlooks socioeconomic factors- it usually amounts to blaming people for being poor, or mentally unwell

Source: I have a severe sleep disorder and at 27, I’ve seen a multitude of sleep doctors (and am still searching for a Dr who is knowlegable enough about my condition to try and help me beyond what I’m already doing) and spent a fair chunk of my life at this point sitting across from one discussing sleep issues

Oh thats a good point

Uhhhh, I don’t think pussy does that… /j
