I didn't play Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 but is this a sequel?

Hyperfixed is so good, and not enough people know about it! In These Times, it feels especially good to listen to a show about how far people will go to help other people.

Been watching the girlfriend play Blue Prince recently. It's been a lot of fun, good co-op game actually. It's so damn cool getting to watch her solve things on the first try.

After almost twenty years on the platform, EFF is logging off of X. This isn’t a decision we made lightly, but it might be overdue. 🧵 (1/5) www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

Great news out of Georgia! ALL of the 15 anti-LGBTQ+ bills have died as the Georgia legislative session comes to a close. This was only possible with intense efforts from local LGBTQ+ activists. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Even in a world where LLM never existed this is solid mentoring

The cool folks from the Eurosky team just brought you a new site: eurosky.tech, portal to the Atmosphere. I'd say it's the crispest explanation so far of what the Atmosphere brings: 1. one account 2. that works with a bunch of apps, and 3. your data from all apps is yours, portable, interoperable.

Okay. An important moment for us, if you’ll indulge me with a repost. It’s time to start the very first whisper of noise about our next game. It’s a mailing list! But it’s a mailing list that I’m hoping will be a bit different than what you’re used to. mailchi.mp/bithellgames...

this is the only good April Fools prank and now that we've all seen it, we can end the day early okay?

I'm kind of just farting around the house today, so why not I turn this into and ask me anything? If anyone out there has serious and sincere questions about what they need to use an EV, please ask away.

About half the people employed by a university in the UK are not academics, and *everybody* is busy all year round: there are no long dreamy summer vacations with nothing to do

A Texas school district has banned HOW LONG TIL BLACK FUTURE MONTH, along with over 1500 other books. Mine was kicked bc it's labeled for adults, which is true. But so are every one of my books, which are available in most schools. That's the only one with "Black" in the title, tho.

"do you like to dance, Perrin Aybara?" ITS GAULIN TIME #wotskies #wotbookspoilers (tdr - ch34)

Here's the thing. I understand the jury's decision today. I understand the folks celebrating the verdict too. I have so much personal disdain for Google and Meta. They are actively undermining our democracy, and selling out our privacy and speech for the bestest billionaire award from Trump.

Nothing but respect for MY formative young adult fantasy novel series

You know, it's bad enough that we're ruled over by the most evil people on Earth, but it really adds insult to injury that they're also the fucking dumbest dipshits imaginable.

Some YA fantasy authors who to my knowledge have never funded an attempted trans genocide: Terry Pratchett Diana Wynne-Jones Garth Nix Suzanne Collins Susan Cooper Phillip Pullman Rick Riordan Pierce Brown Sheri S. Tepper V. E. Schwab Rachel Hartman Alex Pheby Alan Garner Ursula Le Guin And more!

I'm not sure we have a more explicit example of an artist who said "hey, if you give me any money I will definitely go hurt this small group of people with it, so.... money please??" Some situations have nuance. She smashed all nuance with a sledgehammer years ago.

Love it when an AI slop bubble bursts

So, um... this is bad. Really bad. I looked at the letters that were translated by the AI, and the very first one I found was almost entirely hallucination. Thread:

There is NO excuse for just adding one random letter to the alt text and calling it a day. Bluesky EXPLAINS what it is for, and there is help. This is ableist and you should rethink your life choices.

This podcast episode on descriptive audio is worth a listen, for anyone remotely interested in film and accessibility.

my sweet autumn fruit indelible, edible cute little pumpkin #DailyHaikuPrompt #Haiku #Poetry #Pumpkin

My podcast, @hyperfixedpod.bsky.social investigated why Red Delicious apples are so ubiquitous, even though they are nasty as hell. The answer will surprise you! And yes, everyone hates them as much as you do.

Just the beginning Still so much yet to become Let's grow together #DailyHaikuPrompt #Tadpole

I've updated my custom feed, Another Gaming Feed, to utilize @graze.social's new Personalization sorting. Will try this out for a while to see if I like it more than what I was doing before. If you're interested in a custom feed about video games, maybe check it out?

Also: I just uncovered a small network of recently-created accounts that are LLMs replying to people talking about health topics and added them to my Reply/Contact Spammers list as well as reported them, but posting so folks know to be aware since they were mostly recently created

This week on @hyperfixedpod.bsky.social, our listener Chris lost his sight in high school, and was worried he lost his love for movies as well. But then he discovered audio descriptions. The problem is that so many movies aren't audio described. So he came to us for help.

Some #Dimension20 #FantasyHigh shit

Hopping through my mind sends waves across the surface of my attention #DailyHaikuPrompt #Haiku #Poetry #Frog

Probably not many of my mutuals that care about this, but it's interesting. Service is similar to what we used for the Darkfriend Social server on Mastodon when we had that running. I think most people don't actually give a shit where their stuff is hosted. Still cool though.

I just sent this email to the news director at NBC4 Washington about the unprofessional and disrespectful way they handled publishing the body camera footage of the DOGE raid on the US Institute of Peace that was obtained via my FOIA lawsuit:

I was Jim Carrey for three years and nobody gave a shit

The only thing it feels worthwhile for me to say right now is pay attention to whether your feelings & the information you’re absorbing are paralyzing you or prompting you to meaningful action, whatever that is. Paralysis helps no one but the enemy.
