[–] calcopiritus@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago

Jokes on you. Boost does not support spoilers, making it 0 clicks.

It's like a bible reading technique: not reading it, just pretending to know what it says.

A competing Forgejo instance

Aaaand of course the first two repos on the Explore tab are NixOS-related

[–] ImgurRefugee114@reddthat.com 20 points 4 days ago

Lix is an alternative nix interpreter, that's lesbian themed, and I'm pretty sure that roughly half of what I learned while moving to NixOS was written by puppygirls

Is it okay to use it if you’re not gay? I sometimes worry I’m invading someone else’s space.

in a discord i was in, there was a channel named "trans" that was hidden behind a role (also named "trans") that you could select for yourself
a couple of people who said they were cis got the role to be able to talk in the channel(with permission from the owner of the discord server). Only one of them has not come out as trans (yet)

the gay spaces will turn you gay

So the Republicans were right after all!

[–] ketamine_analogue@slrpnk.net 4 points 4 days ago

We were so preoccupied with contrails turning the frogs gay that we forgot to look after ourselves.

[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 8 points 4 days ago

this is kinda how vrchat makes me feel

[–] RamenJunkie@midwest.social 7 points 4 days ago

Everyone is gay to some degree, some just don't accept it.

[–] entwine@programming.dev 2 points 4 days ago

Idk but you should at least suck a dick or two as a courtesy.

[–] Electricd@lemmybefree.net 1 points 4 days ago

It would be lame if not imo

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 13 points 4 days ago (1 children)

So the gays get a parade and comfy environments?

Starting to wonder if the hetero life is really for me

[–] Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 4 days ago

If you're an ally, you're cool, come hang out with us

[–] helvetpuli@sopuli.xyz 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Totally tangential, but does anybody else feel old when people use them simple past of "to run" as it's past participle?

It was still irregular even in American English when I last lived there.

[–] YaBoyMax@programming.dev 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, it's not grammatically correct AFAIK but it's a fairly common mistake to see.

[–] chortle_tortle@mander.xyz 3 points 4 days ago

As it's commonality increases, it's mistake status will dissolve. Such is the way 😌

[–] yetAnotherUser@lemmy.ca 5 points 4 days ago

OP, you linked the wrong post. It's this one: https://gts.apicrim.es/@awoo/statuses/01KN35J2SAE64XK55N8HS1BB2N

It's pretty funny that the post's author has already noticed this Lemmy post: https://gts.apicrim.es/@awoo/statuses/01KN4VEEJ77RX3VABB3HRPVNKD

[–] entwine@programming.dev 5 points 4 days ago

I really like this version of the internet. Instead of everyone using a megacorp's giant centralized services, it's better to have a ton of small services made by and for real communities/groups. Git's decentralized nature is a perfect candidate for this, and I hope it takes off more.

[–] goatinspace@feddit.org 3 points 4 days ago

There is Ubuntu satanic edition, if interested

[–] AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Why not not lesbians only?

[–] apotheotic@beehaw.org 2 points 4 days ago
