It would be perfect if I could get Exome to work with Alpine.js. I can't stand reactivity models that force you to clone data structures so it can detect any changes.

Don't bother inferring any stance from this, I have no stake in this matter. I don't use GIMP and I don't care if it gets renamed or not or if anyone starts a fork. It's just funny and tiring how the internet keeps cycling between the same discourses without much of a change apart from people making it into blocklists.

Haha yeah, I remember the drama about GIMPs name 5 years ago. Silly times.


What do you mean "it's happening again"?

@colinstu It was only 9 posts, but they were all so short and interspersed with media attachments that I stopped reading halfway through wvrnFlat

@blog.uvokchee.de I remember playing some of those games in my childhood as well. NFS II SE, many Moorhuhn titles, Funk-Flitzer, and I had completely forgotten the name of Empire Earth so thanks for that reminder.

I also just now looked up Moorhuhn Kart and guess what, they released a new title just a few days ago.

Don't mind me designing fake platforms for a post on my website. Stuff like this is more up my alley than well-written text. wvrnFlat

talking to whoever made that kind of thread @inderix I bet it was cross-posted because 280 is the character limit on Twitter

@baralheia Now that I'm on my phone, I can see that the . has a wildcard in your post. I bet my frontend interpreted it as markdown and hid it neofox_googly_blep

@baralheia Some quick editing before bed. wvrnMlem
^(.*?)(?:\'s)?(?:\s+(?:Original|Extended|Club|Vocal|Dub|DJ|12\"))*\s+(?:Remix|Mix|Rework|Bootleg|Version|Edit)$




The initial
. needed a *? to match text of any length at the start. It's a lazy wildcard so it won't capture part of the text you want to throw out.
\b is for word boundaries, i.e. it matches the character preceding a space or end of string. I replaced it with \s (for spaces) because that made more sense here.
I also made the group of
Original|Extended|... repeatable to handle names such as "Original Club Mix".
And I simplified
(?:Re)?Mix to Remix|Mix because sometimes repetition looks cleaner than clever constructs. drgn__w_

You’d assume that such a company would be a thriving, healthy business. And yet, a cursory glance at its financial disclosure documents reveals a business that’s precarious at best, and, in my most uncharitable opinion, utterly rancid. If this company was in any other industry, it would be seen as such. Except, it’s one of the standard bearers of the generative AI boom, and so, it exists within its own reality distortion field.

cw: it's about gen AI, this stuff is genuinely disgusting and horrifying @xerz
I mean, even then I believe there’s still some underlying communication
That's true, but it's different. I checked out Discord for a while and have been on some servers, and it's just... they were all the same. Different communities that felt almost indistinguishable because most activity was identical: memes, cute picture, daily life smalltalk, and only then kinda community-specific things
I've had this feeling vaguely before with social media in general, but nothing has shown it to me as blatantly as Discord.
And that sucks. Communities used to use slower platforms
in conjuction with fast-paced ones and managed to create a very solid identity, but today social media has sucked out all of the energy of the former.

It's exactly like with the YouTube channels. High-quality channels (slow platforms) are dying in favor of low-effort ones (social media) and in the end the former will disappear.
