@fishidwardrobe the Christians you introduced.

@fishidwardrobe people see these terms every day. Metaphor that uses terms associated with kidnap, subjugation, murder, and treatment as property still has the power to hurt.

I’m happy to see the end of daemon as a term in use. Background process is more than okay for use!

A benefit of changing terms is that it also helps non-native English speakers. Background process makes sense. Daemon does not.

The music equipment world needs to do some work to eliminate "master/slave" terminology from its vocabulary. Primary and secondary are fine words to use.

This mini-rant was inspired by the MiniBrute 2S manual.

@chartier even though you’ll be nowhere near me, I’m still excited that you’re coming to Ireland.

Hope the Shiny Frog gathering is ace, and please pass on my best wishes to the team. I’m really looking forward to the 2.0, but I still love using 1.X every day. Doesn’t matter to me how long it takes for it to be ready, no matter how much people whine in the subreddit!

If you by any chance take a diversion to Belfast, I’d love to buy you a pint!

Céad míle fáilte!

@joshua no. It was completely written by me…ow.

@joshua as a gay man with cats, you are expected to accumulate large amounts of wealth, then leave it all to your cats when you die. This is the agreed process that stops them from subjugating humans right now. The rest of society salutes you.

@MarkXA Moss Side Eisley?

@vinnycoyne fucking colonialists, never not at it!

@shezza_t what concerns me is that I was having to suppress the urge to shout “NO! DON’T LISTEN TO VIVA LA VIDA! LISTEN TO X&Y INSTEAD!”

@schwa maybe devs should be moving to a subscription model where a monthly subscription works out the same as a yearly. I bet a lot more subscribers would let a lost month slide if a service goes, but a lost year is a different matter.

My 10yo daughter and I have some great conversations going to/from school. Yesterday, we tackled “rich people”. She thought that some rich people were good. I countered that if you manage to get rich, you’re probably bad, because you likely got rich on the backs of others. She agreed and has decided that anyone who has more than enough money to live comfortably for the rest of their lives, and continues to get more money, is automatically a bad person. I am so proud of her.

So disappointed this morning to realise that the move to a subscription model for @ivory was actually just a subscription testing phase and that they didn’t actually get the money!

@lexfri @dmoren whoah! Is this really your mane topic of conversation?

Eldest daughter (12yo) has some friends staying over and they’re chattering excitedly about which Coldplay albums they like the most.

@dmoren I acknowledged their ultimate fates by calling them Mincemeat, Burger, Sausages, etc

@dmoren the big question is this: did you have a naming scheme for your horses in BotW?

Shipping notification from Signal Sounds to say that my Pamela's Pro Workout is on the way. Unreasonably excited about this! #Eurorack

@bigzaphod I decided to buy the lifetime option for Linea. I know Apple get their cut, but so I’ll look at the Patreom too!
