incidentally, those of you who contribute to Lix should know that two of the major contributors have abused me personally, with one of them, Kate Temkin, saying I deserve death when I declined to be controlled by her

Chess hasn’t been updated in almost 200 years and it’s obvious the devs have abandoned it. The greedy creators took your money and laughed all the way to the bank.

I remember back in 705 AD when chess was fun. Then they started adding stupid features no one wanted like “castling” and “en passant” instead of listening to player feedback and fixing game-breaking bugs. I’ve been complaining for years about the collision-detection glitch with the horsey. The ‘clipping-through-pieces’ bug has been abused to death and the lazy devs refuse to fix it.

Don’t support this awful behaviour and boycott this company.

I've been meaning to make an updated version of this for a while so here it is, every numerically-balanced d20 layout!

Feel free to share, especially with any dice makers you think may be interested!

There is a more detailed explanation video by @henryseg for The Dice Lab (which use layout C, if you're curious!) https://youtu.be/Nh2H_4g6evc

a hot pink bitch named breakfast tranarchy_punk_lesbian

for linuxrocks dot online

they're knowingly harboring an infamous techbro transphobe, bryan lunduke, and refused to do anything about it when people pointed that out. in addition to not having any instance rules against transphobia period. so it's clear the admin doesn't give a fuck and this is a dangerous instance worth defederating

this is it. the ship is sinking.
on 2025-04-03, in 8 months, on its 8 years anniversary, the octodon will be permanently shut down.
use this time to slowly migrate your accounts and download your post archives. tell your local friends who might miss the instance announcement.
the first reply will contain a small list of instances to consider; the second a personal note for my followers.

thanks to everyone who supported us, to our crew and members.
i am glad to have built and shared this with you over the years. it was a beautiful horrible adventure. i hope you will remember it as a good place that united so many people for quite a while.

it always had to end eventually. for an impulsive little social website, 8 years is a good run. we have witnessed and remember so many friends who are gone. the octodon, too, gets to live impermanence and have a good end while we still can take care of it.

We are rightly all over the transphobia directed at the cis boxer.

But please, say it with me, this is also racism. The ideals of cis womanhood are rooted in whiteness and an idealised white, middle class femininity.

We cannot allow the racism in this to be swept under the rug. Trans people need to always be in solidarity with all gender struggles, including mysoginoir.

"After careful consideration, we have decided to proceed with other candidates whose qualifications more closely align with the specific needs of the role at this time" :boost_ok:
Show content

A lot of people are looking for a job right now, and I've seen many of them on fedi taking the automated messages from recruiters at face value and questioning why exactly are they not a good fit for this role. Especially when the role still stays open for a while.

The rejections come in multitude of different wordings.
"You already possess a lot of important skills for this position but unfortunately, we have other candidates who are a closer match overall."
"Although your background is impressive, we regret to inform you that we have decided to pursue other candidates for the position at this time. At this stage, we have decided to move forward with candidates that have more experience as fullstack developers and more experience with our tech stack."
"Even though your profile seems very exciting, we decided to shortlist other candidates who match our qualification profile for the advertised job even better."

This all is bullshit.

All these texts are just a part of a standard template not even for rejection; the messages that you're getting are the messages sent automatically after recruiter clicks on "end the process for this candidate" button.
They're not even sent at that moment; instead, often they're sent by a cron job that fires, say, precisely at 8:00 on every day Mon-Fri (even when that's a public holiday) and send rejection messages to all the candidates who are no longer in hiring process but didn't receive the rejection message yet.

I've had a couple of recruiters later telling me this explicitly (when the rejection with this reason just didn't make any sense not just because of my profile).

And on this screenshot, the most recent case in point.
This company felt that I match their requirements very closely. So closely, that I passed all five interview stages successfully and they made me a job offer.
For reasons outside the scope of this post, the conditions the offer came with really didn't suit me. We discussed this for a few more days, they decided that they won't compromise on these conditions, and gave me time to think if I'm going to accept their offer.
I thought about it for a few days and eventually had to reject the offer. They personally thanked me for the information, wished me good luck... and the next day, exactly at 8:00, I'm getting this automated message. It's beyond ridiculous.

So whenever you get a bullshit message telling you that your profile is very exciting but they decided to move forward with other candidates whose profiles are even more exciting but you should not hesitate and please contact them whenever there is another role... it's just a very elaborate way of saying "your application process for this role is over". It doesn't mean that they found your profile exciting, or that they even looked at your profile. It doesn't mean that profiles of other candidates are now exciting, or that there even are any other candidates. It doesn't mean that they rejected you because you're not a good fit, or that they rejected you at all (as opposed to, say, you rejecting them, or them restructuring the company and cancelling the job opening). It doesn't mean that they want you to apply to them in the future. It only means one thing: that you won't be getting the job you applied to, period. Nothing more.

"You get more conservative when you get older" only really worked for the generations that got RICHER as they got older.

The real truth was always just "You get more selfish the more money you have".
