Now I want to register outtaheredud.es to have a subdomain for IM. I wonder how restrictive Spain is about their TLD 🤔
Portugal is very picky for some reason: you have to have a company registered im Portugal with this or similar name, too much hassle just to get a .pt
Spain should not be this bad I think. -

What's the etymology of "the state of 3AM" expression? I mean I can guess what it means, but still curious.
Fun fact: my instance also has what I think state of 3AM is as it's the time when full DB backup is done and it gets very unresponsive :marseydead: -

Yeah, US is fucked up pretty badly, but I think Americans will have it sorted out somehow. And I think pretty soon.
Oh, fun thing that I've just recalled just now — this Black Panther movie. I don't hate American black people — I listen to a lot of this hip-hop stuff, that is where I know some of this from, but this of course doesn't mean that I like each and every one of them or that I'm supposed to be an avid BLM supporter (in fact even a lot of black people were against what it was eventually turned into) — racism is real, but me supporting it would be hypocrisy, because Russians have never had black slaves, in fact, there were Black people in Russia who have been nobility, e.g. one of Napolean's generals, I can't recall his name, but after Napoleanic wars he had stayed in Russia til his very death and of course he wasn't treated as slave.
But anyway, I have digressed — this Black Panther movie, it's like if you don't hate black people you're supposed to watch it and be like: "Oh, Wakanda, wow!"— but when I've been watching it I was like: "Oh my god, it's so racist! It's so full of stereotypes!" — it's like if you're black, you're supposed to play basketball, and all this tribal shit… What their "scientist" does in the movie is bordering with shamanism, like black people are incapable of traditional science and could only achieve something because they have found this metal. I felt shame throughout most of its runtime — and I've been surprised to find out later that people actually like it and no one considered it offensive, this is so fucked up :marseyfacepalm: -

Exactly! That is why I asked — because what is often understood by it, in US in particular, seems to me like a certain set of stereotypes rather than culture.

What this American Black culture is? Selling drugs and promiscuity isn't exactly culture — this is just what poor people often do and a lot of black people just happen to be poor.
And while there sure is "gangster rap", there is quite a lot of hip-hop music criticizing "gangster shit" (the term itself didn't appear out of nowhere) and how it's romanticized — they don't consider it "culture", they consider it a huge problem for their communities, take this album by Master Ace for example: https://mastaace.bandcamp.com/album/the-falling-season
It's about his high school years, and about being smart enough to understand that he deserves better, about wanting to be a normal school boy, not being involved in typical "nigger shit".
But being critical of something doesn't necessary mean that you hate it, it often means that you want it to improve. Should I consider all Americans who are critical of US policy anti-american traitors? I don't think so.
There is this recent movie: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Fiction_(film)
It's no masterpiece, but it's good. And it's not all what it's about, but it explicitly makes fun of this stereotype — that if you're black you are supposed to be a criminal and adopt particular slang and accent. But it's not about how these things do not exist, it's about how it would be hypocrisy for Black American with a middle-class background to claim that it has anything to do with him/her. -

Putting trust into Blink remaining what it is today is a mistake. First it was about standards — Microsoft made a browser engine that was more or less standards compliant, Google started introducing changes to YouTube than made other browsers that don't do things exactly how Blink does perform poorly. They pretended that they like extensions and that it would always remain this way until everyone started using ad blockers and now they have introduced breaking changes under the guise of caring for privacy. It seems to me that introducing changes that would make it impossible (you just won't have the resources to cut through all the Google bullshit) to adopt Blink in your code unless you copy it bit by bit and get everything that comes with it are right behind the corner.
People should never put their trust into any technology that comes out of Google, even if on the surface it doesn't look that bad. This company has demonstrated numerous times that eventually you will be fucked over, it's only a matter of time. -

I agree. There's nothing wrong with unfollowing people. If you think doing something else might be more beneficial to you — do that instead of responding to everyone, it might seem that people will get offended by it, but no — they will just move on. You have to prioritize — you even have to do it in real life, you don't have all the time in the world to hang out with everyone, including the wrong people — it might sound cynical, but you're not obliged to waste your life on being nice to everyone, it's your life and yours only.
Try taking breaks from Fedi — it's easier than you think it is, it might seem boring first, but when your mind adapts to not having this constant "social" stimulation, it gets very easy to do other things that might require prolonged periods of concentration.
Also, Fedi is in fact really poor "social window" — people here might seem fun, but some exhibit outright antisocial behaviour and you might get all the wrong ideas about how to interact with people outside Fedi from them. Treat it as some casual game you can play during a short break — not as a replacement for real social interactions.

We won't see shit. In the USSR it was not only possible to undergo the surgery (and they did that), but to change the documents legally (so recent ramblings that it's against our "traditional values" are all bullshit of course) and there were no plastic bottles — Soviet citizen would probably kill you for one, people were washing plastic bags to reuse them — that I even remember myself.
Plastics might have effect on anything really — and they probably do, microscopic particles are in everything, but most growth is due to it becoming more socially acceptable. -

So what makes you think there is correlation then?
And WTF is common? Common where, on Fedi? How many transgenders are there in the US, below 1%? :marseylaughwith:
Look further than US agenda, the world doesn't revolve around US, plastic bottles are everywhere — even in middle-eastern countries where it's outright dangerous to identify as transgender. Plastics or not — there are more of them where it's acceptable to do so. -

> not below 1% based on the data
So… can it be considered common? I think these people are still in extreme minority, due to certain political processes it's a very vocal minority and these people are overrepresented on social media and especially on Fedi, but common? Far from it!
> The middle east is also full of chomos and trannies, they just hide it
Just like they did everywhere — even before plastic bottles became common :marseyshrug:
So what makes you think there would be a correlation to plastic bottles becoming common and not to such identification becoming socially acceptable?
> based on empirical observations
I thought you just had a hunch that they are somehow related, didn't you? :marseywink: -

What's wrong with Ergo Proxy though? I don't even know why people tend to think it's something deep, like why? Because there are characters named Lacan and Derrida? It's an entertaining road movie with solid (unlike Lain) character development and an absolutely disappointing ending. I have rewatched it recently and enjoyed it probably more than I did watching it long ago
When I was younger some characters (read Pino — probably Iggy too, well, most androids) seemed annoying, now they seem okay to me.
Unlike Texhnolyze that I have finished watching for the first time last year, but have made at least five attempts before that, and it was still a pain to watch, if you want something that screams boring, but "deep" — look no further. Well, unlike it, Ergo Proxy was entertaining to watch, it's no high art, but it has a well done (unlike Lain) story and impressive, especially for the time (just like Lain) visuals — what's not to like? I would probably recommend it :marseyshrug: -

@dcc What version do you use? For me it works in 122, but doesn't in 123 — odd thing is that it dosn't work even from my alt on Librem.Social, where there is media proxy so it's not something Perloma-specific, the way it's embedded on the website I mean.
Either new version doesn't like the way ffmpeg encodes to mp3 — but that's the way I always did it, stripping them of metadata, or something just got broken in FF in general 🤔 -

Why doesn't the audio file that I have posted earlier play in the bowser, but plays fine when downloaded, did they break the built-in player in Firefox, or in pem00rla, or is my instance broken? :marseyhmm:
