Am I the only one using mastodon on the desktop? So many replies to my last message saying they use mobile/phone stuff..

I find the mastodon mobile application to be quite crappy, too much stuff going on all over the place.

Often when I receive a message I rather wait until I have time on the desktop/laptop, rather than replying from the phone. I must be some dying breed or something... 😅

@sjaehn that is one very terrible joke..

@rghvdberg@sonomu.club very negative people online. I remember when the "yes" in the poll was winning.
You can blame me, I said no without noticing the 💉 💉 emojis... 🤦‍♂️
Sorry, maybe next time write plain text 🤔

@tenacity This account is missing some sweet sweet screenshots!

@unfa I get you. But it is not a reason to hate on porn itself, or wanting to stop it altogether, or assuming it is bad. Understandable that you had issues with it, many other people dont.

I mean, the gaming industry is really in an awful place right now, but we do not label games as this bad hurtful thing. After remakes of my old time-favorites became a cesspool of a marketplace, it has completely put me off from playing games. But you know, all things not being equal, etc

@unfa I have reasons to believe my biases for this are way less, as I used to be super religious myself but eventually changed my ways. Most of the anti-porn ideas comes from religion, 2nd (not exactly sure but seems very likely) are from people that feel that it is a demeaning service. If we ignore religion and its ideas of what consitutes morality, we can finally have a good debate around the topic.
If we just go assuming it is bad and evil, there is no discussion possible.

@unfa thinking it as immoral without question is very narrow and close-minded. some people actually enjoy working on the area, it is just the whole conditions around it being so awful.
ostracizing them like you do contributes to this, so *you actually hurt them* with this mindset. as I see it, you are the one implying their work in value-less, not them.

@unfa why cant people decide if it is bad for them or not? this stigma against something that is completely natural being offered as a service is just awful.
they are not really hurting other people are they?

actors often have to do the same things as sex workers, getting naked and intimate with others. some mainstream media even feature full sex scenes. we dont have this big stigma against them...
but they are very similar in the end, they "sell" their time faking enjoying a scene.

@unfa I want to recommend a video to give an alternative viewpoint to this whole thing, I find it very educational. It is a long one, and I dont expect you to agree with everything. but still worth the watch the IMO.

@unfa going to be real honest here, I think you have a very big bias in this topic, which makes it very hard to talk/discuss/debate with.
I can try anyway..

When I say that porn is often a escape-goat, I mean in attributing a lot of bad stuff to it. It is not just violence, but for example "decadence" and the whole stigma/tabu of anyone working in the area. People treat it as this ugly disgusting thing, but it is just human nature (we can say animal nature, as they masturbate too)

@kawaiipunk They are for sure yes.
Maybe try to purge kxstudio-repos package and enable them again.

Carla Plugin Host v2.4.0 is here.
https://kx.studio/News/?action=view&url=carla-plugin-host-v240-is-here

A release just in time for Ubuntu's feature freeze, light on new stuff but still valid. 😀

@unfa Porn is sadly a escape-goat for other things, just like violent games is for gun violence.

There is nothing wrong about sex work, it is a job like any other. The stigma against it is terrible, it just prevents those that work on the field to be taken seriously and receive proper care.

IMO the "new" drug we need to fight is sugar, that one has actually received scientific studies on its addiction. Obesity is a real crisis. Whatever people do in private time is not.

@vari hey it's sunny afternoon here 😂
so is that working correctly for you? your desktop scaling is 1.8?
it looks correct to me..?

@vari huh so it detects vulkan but then it is not really usable...
well use this as the 2nd step:
$ make HAVE_VULKAN=0 -C DPF

thanks
