:WeAreNameless:​ WAN AKA WeAreNameless: When Cyberpunk meets Nostalgia!

#WeAreNameless is a monthly community project on the Fediverse where Hackers and their friends (apparently half of Fedi) watch old sci-fi movies.

:WeAreNameless:​ Wanna get updates on movie sessions? Follow @wearenameless and/or @ella_kane

:WeAreNameless:​ Have movie suggestions? Here's a nice pad for you to give them: etherpad.qbfreak.net/p/WeAreNa

:WeAreNameless:​ About page to be updated soon: 2600.hackers.town/wearenameles

So, I kiiiiinda curate my followers list.

Not just who I follow, I like to have control over who gets to read my followers-only shitposts. Don't ask, I dunno why. :_catsleep:

I'm considering getting some sort of form to help fast track those who actually read my bio and want in on my bathroom party and are not bots. :bathtub_party:

Something simple, like:

1. Why do you wanna stalk Ella and what are your feelings towards cider?

2. Are you a bot?

3. Did you lie? :_catsad:

Apply here in the comments (unless you're a fash)! :blobcatknife:

I may as well make it my post:

I'm Lt. Emojo of H.town! :blobsalute:

I got Admin privs only for emojo duty!

I survived The Langoliers, Time Warps & got a cane I'm not afraid to use.

:WeAreNameless: I organize , a monthly community project on Fedi where Hackers & their friends watch old sci-fi cyberpunk movies.

, we have a surprise from @_cr0_tab today!

Look, our very own emoji: :WeAreNameless:

But wait, that's not just it!

cr0 has also worked hard on a couple of designs that can be possibly made into some goodies, like...
uhhh, I dunno, maybe our very own hoodie? Or maybe a T-shirt and some stickers? All of the above? :blobaww:

I'll try to find a good quality facilitator that is also easy on the wallet.

Meanwhile, let us know how you like them! Personally, I can't even choose between them... :C_H:

Thank you very much, cr0! :blobsalute:

to reduce motion blur, your optic nerve shuts off when your eye moves rapidly. to eliminate the game in perception, your brain then fills in the missing parts of the image, making you unaware anything had happened. this phenomenon, called saccadic masking, renders you totally blind for up to 40 minutes a day.

who knows what creatures exist in that space you aren't permitted to observe

Update on the wheelchair:

Soooo... PayPal didn't like that I have many generous friends here on fedi and temporarily blocked my access to it. I can't withdraw, pay, return, etc.

This means that I didn't have the chance to get my wheelchair yet. :blobcatglaredrink:

I'm trying to verify the account, along with my live-in partner, because it's in their name, but it's tough:

Every time they ask for a residence proof they only accept stuff that's in my name, not theirs, OR costs money to get (like, I just found out that we have to pay for an official bank statement with your name, address and account number now), or a salary receipt with name and address that's not older than 12months... Their work doesn't give them receipts detailed like that anymore! Grrrrr! :blobcatflip:

At this moment in the process, I'm very tempted to just wait the 6 months that I found out that we have to wait in order to withdraw the money (and only withdraw, I think) and forget PayPal.

Because this has been really taxing, I don't have many spoons lately to find an alternative that works with Europe and international donations, so unless you'd ever want to get me some helps thru funds via Western Union, I'm going to try to use my Amazon wishlist for other stuff that's needed although I was really trying to give up because... Well, Amazon! Ugh. :blobcatknife:

Oh, yeah! Not everything is bad news!
I told some friends about this shitty situation and they offered themselves to cover the costs of the wheelchair, so I'm still going to get it soon! :blobaww:

And, if all else fails, in six months I'll have some money for my physio and meds, thanks to you, my dear caring friends! :blobcatheart:

Thank you! :blobcatlove:

@​thegibson you'd be comfy watching with us for #WeAreNameless' synced sessions purposes: otvstudios.net

Heck, forget IR. And forget a new computer.

Can I get a serial->USB C cable for an Android phone, and tell my phone to expose a TTY to it today??

I did something like this a long time ago with Bluetooth. And a rooted android phone. Can it be done without root?

Please join me in welcoming my friend @sandhexe here in town, peeps! :blobwitch:

are you a place that occurs every month or two, according to what I'd see as a teen was to do the same!

Just re-upping this offer: because being comfortable with git is a barrier to entry to many FS/OSS projects, and because I care deeply about lowering those barriers, I will tutor anyone who asks for help with git, and/or connect them with any mentor(s) they might prefer.

I'll do this while I put energy and work into making the tool more approachable, and into making better tools and learning paths.

Boosts gratefully appreciated.

Are you a Mac developer that believes in our project? We have hit a brick wall with our macOS #Glimpse port and have a severe lack of Apple users in our project to unblock it!

More details here: github.com/glimpse-editor/Glim

Contribution links: glimpse-editor.org/contribute/

Work is still ongoing for our application icons and art assets, but we're excited to introduce our new project logo!

#Glimpse is now also on Open Collective: opencollective.com/glimpse/upd

Any one who thinks "it's always darkest just before the dawn" needs to stay up all night sometime.

pushing people out of fedi 

I just wanna do a shout out to this place. If you have an older (flat panel) TV and need hard-to-find parts, these guys might have it.

My 15 year old Samsung needed a new MB for some time now. The last time I got a service quote (the color is smearing) it was like $200. These guys sold me a re-manufactured MB for $21 with a 6 month guarantee. I actually ordered 2 cuz my dad has an identical unit.
