Contrary to popular opinion, I'm not dead. Sorry to disappoint.

Where was I? I decided to do an experiment. For the past year, I have used a different account, on another instance, under a different name. There I had a policy of not following anyone unless they followed me first, and following back anyone that followed me, no matter what. I wanted to see what's the worst that can happen, how toxic Fedi can become. I wanted to see Fedi unfiltered. I guess y'all didn't disappoint.

Some of you, I've stumbled upon again. Some I got the pleasure or displeasure of following again (because you followed me first). Some of you I barely got to talk to, and some not at all.

The experience started decent enough, the first half of the year was ok, but later on, the experience became unpleasant enough that I started opening Fedi rarer and used it less. In a way, that is a positive in itself, but there are better ways to quit social media. Turns out, if you just follow everybody on Fedi, your timeline has the potential of becoming useless trash very fast.

If you're curious about my alt identity, I'm sure you can find it. There are enough clues out there and I'm not planning on deleting that account or erasing any of my posts. But I will not name the account myself, and don't expect a confirmation from me if you confront me with it. Personally, I'm amazed no one made the connection already.

What will I do going forward? I don't really plan on coming back here, nor on continuing with my alt identity either. I might be here for a day or two, but I'm moving on. Where? Who knows. I'm not planning on telling anyone anyway.

I've met interesting people on Fedi, and I don't expect to forget them anytime soon. But, I don't see much usefulness in Fedi anymore. It was an exciting platform because I met people with views different (mostly more extreme) than what I've seen before. But this has grown stale. And since I prefer anonymity and fading away in a crowd, let's say that too many people for my tastes, on either account/identity, have come to know me.

So I'm gonna start from scratch somewhere else. I haven't even decided where yet, so don't ask.

I laughed with some of you, and I fought with others. I bear no ill will to anyone. I've seen plenty of you burdened with too much hate, so I hope you guys find enough happiness in your lives, so that you forget about hating. I hope all of you get to be happy.

Thank you Igel, @Awoo and BigCums for introducing me to this world. I shall continue to awoo, drool over Asian waifus, and make big cums for as long as I live.

Goodbye for now. Have a good 2024!

Your friendly neighborhood, Half-Life loving Hinata waifu, signing out.

Pain...

Girls, don't be like this. Watch this to the very end, and take it as an example of what NOT to do.

If you own one, or know someone who owns one, this might be important to watch.

Man, I love this day. I keep finding funnier and funnier shit. This alone will help me laugh at Apple fanboys for weeks on end. I think I'm gonna save it as a meme, and just send it to any fanboy that tries to kiss Steve Job's desiccated ass.

Whatever you do, don't ligma balls.

I do very hard work to keep my balls clean, thank you very much. The last thing I need is you tainting them with your filthy ligging. Keep that shit to yourself. Lig your own balls.

What type of anti-woke are you?

Vital signs critical! Warning! User death imminent!

I should have this written on my tombstone.

Silly dream for a silly day 

So I dreamed that a Serbian military airplane invaded my country's airspace, and it was all up on the news.
Concerns that we were being attacked, confusion, all that. So we tried to tried to send our own plane, to get close and establish radio contact, and figure out what was up. It took a while, both planes were shitty old Soviet models, so not very fast or maneuverable, but they eventually got close enough together for our pilot to ask "what's up, you invaded our airspace".
The response we got from the Serbian pilot: "I know, I'm just trolling you guys. Bye!". And then he turned around and flew away.

If you're Serbian, a military pilot, or especially both of these, please don't do this.

Spanish Dee Dee: Uuuuuu,... what does THIS button do?

Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. We don't know what has happened, but all possibilities are open and we are in contact with NATO. This is nearing 7 hours after the complete outage. If it was something technical they would know immediately
stallman cultists only push people away
they never convince anyone that free software is good

I showed you my country wide power outage. Please respond.

Well... if our power grid drops out due to "extreme temperature variations", I have my ebook reader charged, I have a good amount of AA and AAA batteries, I have an old MP3 player ready (the kind that runs with AAA batteries), a simple portable radio, a few roms loaded in my phone's Retroarch, and a bluetooth gamepad that has a surprisingly long battery life.

I'm fairly confident I'm not at risk of getting bored. Though I can't rely that much on gaming on my phone. Still, it would hold longer than a laptop. And I could probably charge it a few times over from my laptop and power bank.

Man... was I ever lucky watching the vod just in time. Also, fuck Sony so fucking hard.

@SuperDicq >Normies using Linux on top of proprietary operating systems does not help us with anything.
and neither is nagging on them to use some super esoteric setup gonna do anything, if they want to use the easy stuff they are gonna use the easy stuff, me personally, i just pick what works, because i recognise and work on my moral failings that are all substantially higher on the list than "using software with a restrictive license", i avoid google like the plague and remove the stuff i don't like, but i don't lose hairs about it, and neither does anybody else, i know there is some level of google nonsense i have to deal with, and it's whatever, i removed most of the problem, 80% of the problem gone with 20% of the effort.

>Android for example has made Linux into one of the most widely used kernels in the world.

>Has this brought us any advancements in terms of software freedom?

no but it makes a mid operating system (not that i thing smartphones are an invention that brought much "pros" to my life) yeah there is proprietary parts to the whole operating system, but it is an "operating system", it doesn't need to be fully free, just mostly free as to get the benefits a person has when using free software.

but the question here is, how does people start using an operating system that is more free, rather than all proprietary, harm the free software movement? it would get more support, and more people would be knowledgeable.

and then the question is? is the problem here that it is harmful to free software movements? or is the problem that pewdiepie failed to properly portray free software, and the movement? thus getting people into a sort of uneducated expectation?
Pewdiepie advised a lot of people to get into Linux and Fosstards still are ungrateful for it.
you need to understand, those people don't want some thinkpad librebooted device with fully free graphics drivers, they just want to use something easy to pick up and better, Linux is now easy to use, minimal drawbacks for a lot of people and some, just straight up none.
to everyone their idea of linux is the practical considerations, less nagging and garbage on the screen, smoother, and more privacy are the benefits they are looking for, they couldn't really give any less of a shit about software ethics, let alone software copyright ethics.

and the "Gnu/Linux" and "Free software" language police is pretty dumb too, the point of language is to convey an idea, i understand autism drives you to care about all this stuff, but you end up making people think you are stupid, because why WOULD they care about specific language, they just don't wanna get raped in the ass by MS that's all there is to it.

So is it gonna be that Monster Hunter and Oblivion Remaster will be the best games of the year?

I just realized that people who are old enough to vote might have no idea who Steve Irwin is... damn...
