Why do (US) banks say "Member FDIC", not "FDIC member" or "member of the FDIC"?
The mood on the mastoverse is fairly low of late. We don't know anything about what's happening and would, I think, prefer not to get involved, but I hope everyone is alright.
@KawaSeadrake @lizardsquid Given that the context is computer geekery, it seems apt to compare the learning curve to Dwarf Fortress. So, is it nowhere near as steep as DF, or just about half as steep as DF? (nothing has a steeper learning curve than DF.)
@JulieSqveakaroo Oh, it's a multiple term. Basically, I just meant a name that Felthry and I can use to refer to, well, the whole thing, both of us and anyone else who might appear.
@mawr Oh, wait, maybe it's making a link to "paddle".
@mawr How does it predict "canoe" from "dd"?
@Dex What is that recurring element?
@JulieSqveakaroo I don't know what that means!
I wonder if Felthry and I should come up with a system name....
@Terrana@tootplanet.space Oh no, I hope you don't lose your job. Or at the very least you find a new one quickly.
More services need to have developers that actually consider accessibility when designing their programs. Discord's lack of customizability is frustrating, to say the least.
Assumed common knowledge, statistics, almost but not quite a rant
@Terrana@tootplanet.space Like any other situation, there's a relevant xkcd that comes to mind: https://xkcd.com/1053/
@literorrery I perked up a bit when I saw it was a text box, and not a dropdown menu. But then it did that.
@literorrery It's a form we're filling out for a background check from a company called Risk Mitigation.
@Terrana@tootplanet.space The owner of witches.town made some very transphobic statements, and after getting called out on it decided to respond by shutting down the entire instance.
Plural Problems (+++)
@Draekos I do hope you figure out what works for you.

@Draekos It's always difficult to sort out at first. We've settled into our routine fairly well, but there are a number of things that we do that would be impractical for more than two people.
@mawr @announcements Out of curiosity, are they two-headed, or just right next to each other?
Taking over for Felthry for a bit. It got overwhelmed by the current topic of conversation on here, and needs some time to cool down.
