  • It really does feel like the system itself is designed to set up those of us with psychological disorders (and neurological conditions) for failure. My mental health provider that I must use, because they’re the only ones around, has this “just in time” system where they will only schedule appointments one week prior to when the appointment is supposed to be. So instead of just making an appointment for say October 30, you have to wait until October 23rd, call in, try to get set up for the following week (if available) and then you get a confirmed date. Also, if you miss an appointment and don’t make a new one within a week they will discharge after another 7 days. That’s crazy, these patients have disorders that absolutely cause them to miss appointments and completely avoid them in some cases.

    To be blunt, the entire mental healthcare system is totally fucked in the US. I don’t get worked up over anything ever really, but this shit pisses me off.

    On a positive note, congratulations on getting setup for treatment again! It really is a feat of fortitude in this country and you got it done!










  • Yes, there absolutely is a lot of integrations and even if a consumer level SoC existed that could run arm64 macOS, it might not last long as all Apple would have to do is slightly change some aspect of their particular architecture and it would stop working. I don’t expect it to ever happen, but then again, I never expected macOS on x86 either.

    Asahi, by the way, it’s astounding how far they’ve come with porting over to Apple Silicon. I haven’t had the itch strong enough yet to give it a go, but I will eventually.










  • It is more complicated than that. There are multiple different server components that make up Bluesky and its federation. The PDS (Person Data Server) is what they’re mostly talking about in that press release. You can however run all three major server components yourself and setup a completely separate network that would then federate with Bluesky proper. It’s quite different to Mastodon and other ActivityPub services (where you setup a Mastodon, Lemmy, WriteFreely, etc… instance and then federate).

    Still, at present it does feel a little pointless.
