Hot take: looking for a single silver-bullet Discord replacement is solving the wrong problem. -

I'm an electrician.@nomenloony i hadn't zoomed in or read the post or alt text and am a *very* unsophisticated user when it comes to anything electrical, and at first glance i thought the correct chart was on the left and the AI-generated pic was on the right
once i read the text body and inferred that the thing labelled so confidently "correctly wired" must be the slop, then read the alt text and confirmed it was so, everything made so much more sense
AI infographics are such an awful case of "we can lie faster than you can fact-check" -
🏚️@ShadowJonathan i still randomly get favs on a comment i posted on bsky forever ago:
"who's going to make the trains run on time:

"Well ICE broke his rib a week ago so that proves he's a trouble maker!"@futurebird when i first hear about it it was framed as "they've had beef with this guy and his ultimate murder may well have been wilfully targeted (implication: premeditated)" but yeah i can see the fash spinning it this way too -
Are we all millenials here or is that a misperception?@futurebird @thordis i think we're born in the same year or at least within 1 year of each other, which means most people i've seen born 2-3 years before us who talk about the x/y boundary tend to identify either as millennials or xennials... -

...this is kinda starting to feel like that previous discussion https://brain.worm.pin... -

Bases.@futurebird @dancingtreefrog i think at that point the upset about learning something new that violates a socially constructed rule is unavoidable and possibly even harmful to shield the kids from

I don't know how well this puzzle will translate to a toot.originally had "[" as 3 because i was thinking sloppily and figured "big string = big number" but the error was obvious once i'd sorted the [-initial 3-longs into their sequenced groups of 4 at the end and it was clearly skipping a few series
the -^ order was entirely arbitrary

I don't know how well this puzzle will translate to a toot.@futurebird (now i'm wondering if anyone's going to decide on their best "one true" answer by going in unicode order) -

I don't know how well this puzzle will translate to a toot.@futurebird i tried copypasting into a plaintext editor but some of the line-initial "▣"s got garbled into tofu -_- -
