While nano is the default terminal editor *I* use, I would never assume that’s what someone else would use. Maybe it’s because I remember how divisive vi vs emacs can be.
@sekka @stonebear2 What @sekka is describing is exactly what breaks my brain. I definitely need moments of joy to sustain me in this time, but the state of everything is impossible for me to ignore.
@mira @sekka *Huuuuuuugs*

@Ruth_Mottram

β€œA lot of people enjoy drinking, and they don’t like to be told that something they really enjoy is bad for you,” Gakidou says.

Replace drinking with almost anything that people enjoy and that's a pretty good summation of human behaviour. There's a negative version too:

"People don't like to be told something they don't enjoy is good for them."

Variants include the someone else version.

"People really don't like to be told that something they enjoy is bad for someone else, or to be put at an inconvenience for the greater good, no matter how mild that inconvenience is."

@mira I have this same conundrum. Currently ours is unplugged and facing the wall (it looks like it’s been punished, but it’s done nothing wrong, great machine aside from the lack of updates).
@mira relatable.
@amaltheatwin pizza and nachos get together when you’re able to cronch food again?
@sekka it’s time for a DS9 watch through.
@sekka Every interaction I’ve had with you leads me to believe that you’re not the kind of person who would have done anything so wrong as to deserve cosmic punishment.
I remember reading about a hacker collective called Gender Benders back in the late 90s / early 00s, does anyone else remember them / have any info on them / their work?
