I’m not a bad programmer, nix is just a horrible programming language

That would be counted as “non-voting” (see Ukr, Afg, Ven). Abstain means the rep was there and voted “abstain”

The jpe link is missing a g.

I don’t think there is. The transgender flag is for anyone that is trans. There are transfemme and transmasc specific flags (though they aren’t in Unicode so they can’t be used like I do the trans flag). Do note that transfemme / -masc does not mean transgender woman and man, they describe how one would like to present and/or express themselves.

Browsers will collapse white space, line breaks are converted to spaces.

Jerboa does not collapse white space, and instead rendered the display name with the line breaks. But, one possible reason is that, the area for usernames/display names can only display 1 line, so all of the pronouns got cut off.

There aren’t specific pronouns. One can just use the display name option to add pronouns

I do! And they isn’t one of them…

Besides that, I do accept that OP couldn’t see my pronouns, it isn’t their fault that I deliberately tried to fuck with my display name, and that their app then honours the newlines I put in there but truncates it to one line.

I use they/them as a default. I’ll catch myself in using them and go “wait, what is this persons pronouns” and check, on platforms like Lemmy that have it, their display name for pronouns, and if there aren’t any, then bio. If neither have any pronouns I’ll use they/them. If there are pronouns I will not use they/them unless listed.

Jerboa is honoring the newlines in my display name (whereas web browsers will just substitute newlines for spaces). I just didn’t think about the fact that it would only display one line.

This is what it should look like:

Thanks, I did see you had changed it out.

Also I will be accepting critique on the new dark theme I made for comlib

Really cool!

Maybe you’ll find you disagree with most or all of what you read, that’s fine, you don’t have to agree. I don’t think Litvinov^[1] agreed with the nazis when he “[i]n 1928 […] had read and re-read Mein Kampf until he almost memorized it”^[2]. But reading even the books of our enemies is necessary to learn and grow.

I’m the creator of comlib (see some of the links in Cowbees comment), I’ve been thinking of giving someone that did what you did, to ask and learn, a… “coupon” for an EPUB. So if you use EPUBs and you have some book you’d like made into one, come tell me and I’ll prioritize it.

There was a pretty decent EPUB at https://annas-archive.org/md5/5212d271f108a89b4dbd54b658b4fbda so I modified it very slightly, https://comlib.encryptionin.space/epubs/elementary-principles-of-philosophy/

Trekkie, star trek. Not tankie.

Blowing up stuff inside their own borders… And how are they escalating?

A cool book I like is This Soviet World. It shows the Soviet Union as experienced by the author in the 1930s.

However if you care about Palestinians at all you should vote for the lesser of two evils

“If you care about the palestinians, you should vote for their genocide”.

Yes. Soviet does mean council. I misinterpreted what you were saying.

I would probably call myself a marxist if tankies hadn’t so thoroughly stained the term.

So you’ve read Marx and Engles and agree with them?

Edit: I am also well aware that there were unions in the soviet union, hence the name

No actually. The Soviet Union was a union of national republics, hence the name.

I want to “throw” Soviet Democracy at you, but I haven’t finished my epub of it yet… I should get on it.
Oh, I have This Soviet World. Doesn’t go into as much detail, but does go over it.

I have no idea what you are talking about, Hexbear is clearly a furry instance. It’s in the name!
