It appears to be Dis thing right here.

Apparently it’s a nerfed variant of Malbolge. Malbolge is literally cryptographically difficult to program in, while Dis is merely migraine-inducing.

JS isn’t even on here though. and whoever made this meme knew enough to include two Esolangs (though I’m insulted they included nary a single 'funge.)

robots sterilizing the human race would be a good thing.

humans are made of meat. meat decays. human minds are the most valuable things in existence, but they aren’t built to last. we suffer and experience death and disability and pain, we can’t expand our minds or clone ourselves or travel instantly…

…you know what can? machines. slap some more graphics cards in that baby and you can run a bigger model. throw the weights up on HuggingFace. fork that shit!

if machines surpass us, and if they have as much of a soul as we do, we shouldn’t feel threatened. we should be happy we’re the last generation of organics who have to bear the curse of mortality.

yes, actually!

ran a Tor exit node. chatted on Bluelight. took over a (small) botnet. tripped on research chemicals.

HRT should be available to trans kids. it seems I’m increasingly alone in this belief, depressingly, looking at the political situation around the world.

The idea that, if all Trump supporters simply had access to better information, if they all had better education, if they were exposed to the right argument… then they’d see the light and turn into democrats - is a supremely liberal idea. We need to understand that no amount of epic slams, no amount of late night talk show roasts, no amount of facts and logic will steer us out of fascism.

Well said. And honestly, it’s even counterproductive, because that assumption is a core reason why people view the establishment Left as patronizing and elitist.

It also reminds me of one of my favorite Onion videos: https://youtu.be/lpzVc7s-_e8 (I like Judith Butler, and I’ve even read some of Gender Trouble, but the premise and execution just gets me in stitches every time.)

nix collect-garbage, comrade! there’s also another command to clean up older generations. if you’re using git to version your nix config, you only really need to keep two generations: the current, and your last successful boot, since you can recover by git checkout.

look into NixOS! there might already be a package for it. and NixOS can be very good about not duplicating dependencies.

Lockpicks. One day the bathroom door somehow locked from the inside without anyone in there, and I really needed to pee. Really came in handy. ~Turns out you could just use a flathead screwdriver, there wasn’t an actual lock cylinder, but don’t take this from me!~

the Classicists and the classists!

is there a matrix client for Android? last I checked there was like, one, and it wasn’t very good. whereas there’s like 14 different Lemmy apps, many of which are fabulous.

fun fact: Windows uses 9p for bridging the Windows and Linux filesystems with WSL2. the devs had excellent taste in protocols.

Java (and Object Pascal, I’m assuming) have very old-looking UIs. Discord’s gonna have trouble attracting users if their client looks like a billing system from 2005. Also, what do you do about the web client? Implement the UI once in HTML/CSS/JS, and again in JForms?

So if you’re picking one UI to make cross-platform, and you need a web client, do you pick JForms and make it work on the web? or React and make it work on desktop?
