  1. If anyone knows good #antifurry accounts on fedi, please let me know! Let's follow each other, have some coffee, or whatever. I'm hoping they escaped #Xitter just as quickly.

    As always, any TERF accounts, homophobes, 4chan edgelords, cryptobros *shudders*, or the like will be reported for defederation (if they aren't local). Furries can't have a monopoly on being decent people!

  2. Any fellow anti-furries on fedi? Please follow especially if you use Arch, BTW!

    #linux #CS #antifurry #antibrony #furry #somethingawful #lowtax #archlinux #dank #shitposting

    And before people accuse us of homophobia, my (and many other antifurries') beliefs are almost the polar opposite of Elon Musk's. To hell with homophobia!

    #Geno to me is the religion invented by #SomethingAwful back in the 2000's! geno.agnostos-theos.net/geno.h

    It started on #HabboHotel and moved to #CokeMusic where people had avatars that walked around and interacted. All Geno were gray and we preached of the path and the cowbells and we formed lines and coordinated stuff using SA. A line of 50 Geno might form up and everyone would stop interacting simultaneously, the avatars would simultaneously vanish when they timed out.

  4. @sylmobile I logged out and won't log in for a while, I'll see how it goes. I was a #SomethingAwful person for 15 or so years until #Lowtax went insane and eventually killed himself and I might just be an ex #Reddit person now as well. New admin at #SA isn't great and maybe just opening a new reddit account for #JWST and some other subs will work, who knows. #LicensaTheAPIAndScrewTheUsers is pretty bad though.

  5. How the Tech Are You episode 46

    - EU allows combustion cars if and only if they use synthetic gas
    - StabilityAI releases open source 7B parameter language model for their StableLM AI
    - Something Awful community scrambling as Imgur image purge looms
    - Discord is moving to more standard handles and some people don’t like it

  6. I maintain that this notion of the #firstamendment being applicable to twitter is a bad argument. It wasn't true before and it isn't true now. All that said, it is a problem, even if its not a violation of the law for #Elon to moderate #twitter like #Lowtax from #SomethingAwful

    Twitter's size and importance means that it should be moderated responsibly. On SA, you might get banned for personally irritating the mods and the suspension message would be a picture of tarantula on someone's penis

  7. #ElonMusk is behaving like a brat. He's treating something that became fundamental to our global communication infrastructure, a place where the debate was, a haven for journalists in authoritarian regimes as his personal fiefdom. He's running Twitter like #Lowtax ran #SomethingAwful
