Did you see the list? Finding a "generic" instance that's open to signups honestly isn't easy, right now. I ended up on fosstodon.org, which is not as generic as I'd like but seemed like the least terrible option I

https://mastodon.social/ isn't allowing new signups, https://mas.to/ is returning a cloudflare error page for me.

You actually can't sign up on mastodon.social at the moment. I thought the same, all the instances are for weirdly specific groups I'm not in. You don't have this problem with email, there's no requirement to choose an e

I guess you might be talking about a different language / environment than I'm used to, but even in the 100 assertion test case you get useful tracebacks in python. Testing lots of things at the same time means strictly speaking y

For me, the "trending topics" show me plenty of people screaming at each other from diverse (and often vile and insane) viewpoints. Maybe I've brought that on myself though.

In their place for sure, but I'm not sure how a node-based NLE would work.

And Davinci Resolve's Edit page (I don't know why the ggp says it's not an NLE).

For me, the issue wasn't that I had to fix it frequently , but that when I did it was urgent, stressful and disruptive. Eventually the VDS I was renting had a fatal HD crash and I gave up.

I'm very doubtful that part's true. If you have your full name on your profile then sure, the new organizer will have access to it (as they did when they weren't the organizer). Meetup wants you to message people through thei

I think the "new sponsor" has to be a member of the group, and will thus have access to your PII (ie. whatever name / nick you registered with) anyway.

You mean they're being offered on the dark web or something? Is this something other than the thing where members get to take on admin'ing the group if the original admin leaves?

by Joeboy 4y ago
I think you're right, also I think if you're getting the option to take on admin of the group, you're already a member of the group and have access to the members list, and ability to message people on it, anyway. So other th

Looking at the video, it looks like Davinci Resolve's color tab (or Lumetri or whatever) but "in the cloud"? I didn't notice anything that looked like "AI"?

I don't think that's quite right. If you were a full-on Nazi you'd be generally ignored by the sort of people who spend their time calling out minor transgressions among their fellow travellers.

Yeah you're right actually, glancing at Rightmove (UK property site), and going by the standard 4.5x mortgage test, you're probably not going to get a decent family home in Central-ish London on £200k. Shit's fucked up. Edit:

I'm just genuinely intrigued as to why someone on £200k would want to work more. maybe there's a good reason, like they're an "earn to give" person, or some actual ambition the money will help fulfill, or some expen

I run Ubuntu on my P53. It's almost great, but has really bad issues with the keyboard. Occasionally a key will get "stuck" (in some non-mechanical way) and I can't use the keyboard without logging out and in again. I

I don't care too much what the names are, but it annoys me that apps have secret, hidden true names. Want to launch an app with a command line argument? Time to start grepping system files.

I think the reason people have more of a problem with GIMP is that it's a sex thing, not that it's an insult. Whereas "git" doesn't really mean anything specific as far as I know. Edit: Apparently gimp is also an in

If you google "vfx workflow" or "vfx pipeline" you'll find lots of stuff. As I understand it the reason things get out of control on big movies is that there's no incentive to plan shots properly or be decisive

I definitely wouldn't say no to a "fully Raimi" movie, but I quite liked the way it started off as typical Marvel cheese and pulled off a surprising change of tack somewhere in the middle. In fact that might be my favourite a
