“Now”? Pull your head out of your ass, AP. It’s been mainstream for 20 years.

@andres4ny@social.ridetrans.itHolding my nose and voting for him in Nov, but we really needed better than Biden for this moment in history. And by "we", I mean the entire planet.

@aral@mastodon.ar.alLots to do yet but the new Kitten¹ settings section (that’s common to all Kitten apps / Small Web places) is coming along nicely. (With the general style/layout borrowed from Domain².)
(It’s currently a single page and I’m breaking it up into multiple ones because it’s time.)
Once I’m done with this I should really record a screencast of Kitten’s new backup and restore feature/data portability.

@risottobias@tech.lgbtit's annoying that people who have lots moralize the strategies people who don't have use to survive.
on the flip side, it's hard to not be over-pampering.
common learned strategies:
- resource hunting (asking dad vs mom, or a less experienced volunteer when the shift lead says no)
- fragmenting for assistance (slightly different requests to many people)
- hoarding (if you've never endured scarcity you might not get this)
Nothing wrong with that strategy, just we're also trying to help out the polite / hesitant folks who don't vouch for themselves
or dealing with a limited "one phone per family" budget because money in a charity is f-ing tight.
assume the best of the people you're trying to help, but don't commit the org to promises (even saying maybe can be seen as commitment that might backfire) - call the case manager and let them work it out.
trying to avoid codependency and encouraging them to try it themselves / gain confidence in a new place, encourage independence and self sufficiency.
@bikepedantic@transportation.socialBecause City of Cambridge isn't here, i didn't know that the Mass Ave Planning Study had kicked off, and has its first meeting tomorrow, 6-7:30pm.

@joxean@mastodon.socialDo you happen to know if there is somewhere, by any rare chance, a list of Microsoft Window binaries (DLL and/or EXEs) for the most common last Windows versions?
For example, let's say that I want to compare, I don't know, NTDLL.DLL across the latest Windows 10 and 11 versions. Any place where I can get a list of hashes or versions for NTDLL.DLL for different Windows versions? Or just the current version numbers.
