I watched Tank Girl and I am a changed person

My 10 year old just landed their first craft on Duna and I couldn't be more proud The lander had a rocket descent system inspired by Curiosity They didn't even use a transfer window calculator, they did it by eye based on looking at diagrams. That's more hardcore than I ever did it

I need someone to tell me if Season 2 of Fionna and Cake is anywhere near as mindblowingly fantastic as the first. Season 1 lives as a top 3 show ever in my mind, and I was actually bummed they announced a season 2 because it's just so *complete* I gotta know S2 is world class before I risk it

If you’re in a creative field and you don’t lift up the work of your peers, you can’t expect people to care about your stuff

Back in 2002 I implemented an A* pathfinding algorithm in a custom Neverwinter Nights map to allow NPCs to walk between their homes and shops and anything else, along the roads. I was recreating the town of Hommlet from Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil

getting close to 4k followers on here. I would really love for it to overtake Instagram’s 10k. I really hate Instagram.

Still thinking about the guy playing Warhammer at our local gameshop who, when my 4-year-old asked why they were fighting, turned his head to look at them with the enthusiasm of someone who had waited their entire life for someone to ask and said stoically “in the grimdark future there is only war“

Tonight, for the first time, I played Kerbal Space Program multiplayer with my kid. I docked with the station they put in orbit! What a dream come true a decade in the making.

Why is it evil and a risk to credit card payment processors when it’s one adult woman making CNC kink videos but it’s a pop culture phenomenon when Khal Drogo rapes Daenerys after being sold to him by her brother?

The latest @home-assistant.io update brought an amazing improvement to automation editing. By putting the node config in a separate frame, it's so much easier to edit parameters while still keeping view of the overall automation flow. Such a seemingly small change with massive usability impact!

This is your regularly-scheduled reminder to exercise your right to download archives from the services you use and archive them in your backups. Don't let a service shutting down (or legislation backsliding) cause you to lose years of data that belongs to you.

Every day I move closer to self-hosting every bit of digital architecture in my life. Today's project: Standing up Syncthing to replace Dropbox/iCloud/Google/One Drive.

Oh hell yes, I've been waiting for thisssssss Going to test it by creating a Base to track the 3D printing filament I own and have tried, with notes on performance etc

Taking a break for tokens to refresh is the new taking a break for code to compile

I have come to really love MacOS, but I hate Finder with a fiery passion Tell me how to fix this, is there some third party option that makes it not the worst file management experience on the planet?

🔹🏳️‍⚧️ PERSEVERE 🏳️‍⚧️🔹 i adore and am inspired by my trans friends, peers and mutuals, forever and ever. i will defend you and your rights till the day i die. this piece is in honor of you.

did you consider all the labor practices that went into your hitler-killing gun. was the power source environmentally sustainable. did you say you were killing hitler for the holocaust without taking a correct position on the current state of israel

if you were going back in time to murder hitler on here people would find a way to be mad that you didn't genuflect to them enough

An interesting impact of the AI era for me has been a significant increase in how much I prioritize infrastructure-as-code solutions for all sorts of things. Today I wanted to make a specific route to an internal service accessible outside my network. Because my reverse proxy is Traefik [1/2]

So I've recently taken notice that both ChatGPT and Claude have a tendency to tell me variations of "you just [did an amazing thing] that most people never even dream of". This got me thinking about it and the answer is so obvious: clickbait titles [1/2]

I am desperate and seeking help from anyone out there. I am trying to launch ads for my small business, and the Google Ads system has repeatedly flagged 100% of my ads and assets for "circumventing systems" and "malicious website" which are obvious false positives. Today my account was suspended.

There has never been a piece of media or art that I have been as unable to describe as The Rehearsal I truly think it will be studied for centuries

But I do appreciate being reminded that this is a double edged sword. Being soothed at all by my own refusal to use paper towels at home plays right into so many of the actual corporate and oligarchical systems that are killing the planet while I recycle my milk jugs.

I saw a video by @lizthedeveloper.bsky.social questioning the ubiquitous take that AI is a climate nightmare. It moved me to research. I found this by @andymasley.bsky.social and appreciated the tone, clarity, detail: Using ChatGPT is not bad for the environment open.substack.com/pub/andymasl...

Just released ESPHome 2025.5 includes the latest iteration of our voice assistant that can work fully local. All devices we ever used are now onboarded using the voice wizard and offer on device wake word selection, announcements, initiate conversations with users, and improved media playing!

Hey remember Google Plus? What a wild time

Let's play a fun game of "which color indicates the selected state?" Clicking anywhere on the control toggles it, so you can't just click on one side to be sure

this is exactly what i mean when i say “linkedin is a shitposting site where only a handful of the shitposters know that they’re shitposting.”

The new pope signed up for Twitter in 2011 with a Hotmail email address that he also used for a lot of other stuff, which is how I know that he's probably the first pope on Zynga and almost certainly the first pope on Tumblr

Suburbanite Imogen's cool queer neighbor Alex reminds her of what she gave up for her family-- the kind of peaceful, supportive family Alex never had. Together, they learn there's more to life when you follow your heart 💛 MOTHERLOVER by @neomeruru.bsky.social store.ironcircus.com/products/mot... 🌸

this is genuinely so sweet and made me tear up. sometimes people are good

I must not discourse. Discourse is the mind-killer. Discourse is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face the discourse. I will permit it to pass over me and through me.

Three more sleeps until Motherlover is out on shelves!

I just came up with and implemented quite possibly the most clever and elegant workaround for an extremely obscure (but showstopping for my site) Webkit/Safari bug and I'm likely the first person in the world to come up with it and I'm sitting here alone in my room wondering where my trophy is

Support those whose entire existence challenges theirs. It’s the workers y’all. It has always been the workers that dismantle regimes.

Huge congrats to @neomeruru.bsky.social on a ⭐starred⭐ review from @publisherswkly.bsky.social for MOTHERLOVER pubbed by @ironcircuscomics.bsky.social! "Readers will fall for Imogen and Alix just as they fall for each other." www.publishersweekly.com/9781638991465

When you lived in the year 2000, everything about humanity was solvable with technology. Hate and prejudice and war was just lack of information to the common people. We were going to solve everything. It was so easy it was so obvious.

omg omg omg it’s hereeeeeeee @neomeruru.bsky.social

I have used min() and max() functions in dozens of programming languages and every single time I have to stop and think about which one does which thing like a child holding up her hands to figure out right and left

I was today years old when I finally wrapped my head around the fact that in CSS, "inline" means left and right, and "block" means up and down (when working in English) It's amazing what I learn when I actually take the time to read the docs
