I 100% acknowledge that my previous statement was a use of my privilege as a straight, white male from the US. I have about as much privilege as anyone can have in this day and age. What's important is how I choose to use that privilege. I'm not the target of bigotry and hate. This is exactly why I must stand up for those without so much. If I do not how can I expect those who face persecution to do so? We stand stronger when united together against hate than we do divided.

Most of the people who complain about places like 8chan being havens "universally reprehensible" behavior and ideas are wantonly flaunting their privilege. Not everyone was raised with the same "universal" set of morals and views of the world.

If half the people who complained about these places on the Internet spent more time engaging with these communities instead of complaining about them, maybe we could make a real difference.

Rode my bike to work today for the first time in a while. Tried a new route. Down from 19 miles (~30km) to just 17 miles (~27km) but going a little more diagonal.

@cosullivan I'm not sure I follow. I have the updated keybase client. Didn't get any issues. Is that what you're referring to?

Would be nice if @SDF Mastodon could get setup with keybase for mastodon verification: https://keybase.io/blog/keybase-proofs-for-mastodon-and-everyone

I want to like vscode but I just can't get past the idea of using a separate application window for editing files and navigating the filesystem. It might take longer to type what I want in a terminal than it does to click through a file tree but the idea of moving my hands off the keyboard makes me cringe

Well, that's frustrating: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1201401

Apparently copy/paste between crouton chroot and ChromeOS should be possible if I install the crouton Chrome extension and enable the "extension" target for the chroot but it's still not happy. Anyone have experience getting it working? Not sure if it's just because I'm using xterm and it's not configured properly or if it's an issue with the integration itself.

Sad to see that the Asus C201 and other 32bit ARM Chromebooks won't be getting Crostini support like I hoped. Guess I'll be waiting until the Asus C101PA comes down in price on ebay. Until then, Crouton with xiwi will have to do #sadpanda

@zaylea I've received several past due emails, I get the interactive MOTD when I sign in to try.sdf.org, my group ID is now "arpa" and I can't login to the metaarray.

@seven1m more hosting space, access to a more powerful shell server running a modern Linux environment. Access to tmux/screen, SMTP access and much more. not to mention supporting one of the last great services on the net.

MetaArpa dues paid on 2018-10-04 but my meta membership was revoked @SDF

@SDF I reserve space on my work laptop for very special stickers only. This one made the cut. A truly awesome design. Now we just need mugs!

fixed Tootdon on my new phone finally. Apparently I was bitten by the sign-in bug! just had to sign out and back in after updating the app, thankfully.
