When rice/ricing is used in Linux customization, it has nothing to do with the Japanese, Asians, or their cars.

I can see issue if ricing a desktop environment meant "made it look like it was from Asia" or "filled excessively with anime (or other asian thing)" kind of stereotype, but it's not. There is no association with the pejorative meaning, so no problem.

Why are people squabbling over this? This is so silly. Use ricing, don't use it, call it something else, I don't give a shit.

Tell that to git and moving away from master as a default branch.

Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)

Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.

Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc

(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama
