One of the first things I did when I set up my current PC was burn onedrive out of it with a blowtorch.

Adobe is a terrorist organization. It's harder to cancel an Adobe account than a gym membership.

...Weirdly it is illegal in California.

that would be illegal in the EU & the UK

I feel like it should be illegal to automatically enroll someone's automated payments into a more expensive plan...

I figure if you're not at least 2 layers of management removed from the actual work they probably pay you like dirt and make game industry crunch look like a vacation. There's no way anyone who actually deserves it is making any money here

adobe really is a leader in the field of finding new and innovative ways to be the most dogshit company ever

@chiptunearchiver.bsky.social funnily enough I'm a chiptunist.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." - President Dwight D. Eisenhower

Total long-shot but I need some help with something that I can't do alone.

@wikifur.bsky.social CloudFlare is keeping the site from loading and it's happened long before the recent outage.

If you'd like to commission me, but don't want to use Fiverr, or would rather not donate through GoFundMe, I also have a Ko-Fi page. ko-fi.com/zeerathezesty Again, I hate to plug things and self promote like this, but it's pretty desperate for me right now. (3/3)

If you’d prefer a commission instead, my commissions on Fiverr are still open. My rates are as follows: Voice Acting - Starting at $10 per 100 words - www.fiverr.com/s/yv6WR76 Pixel Art - Starting at $10 for a character frame up to 48x48, or a tileset up to 128x128 - www.fiverr.com/s/o8yWXWN (2/3)

Hello everyone. I hate having to talk about this, but I haven't been doing well financially lately. I likely won't be able to pay rent next month. I started a GoFundMe in August, and it's still up now, but things are dire for me by the end of this month www.gofundme.com/f/donate-to-... (1/3)

stgiga.itch.io/Tyroland now fully supports SC-8850 And yes, this means that I'm now the holder of the first full 88Pro AND first full 8850 sf2 records

@qntm.org So Unicode 17.0 drops tomorrow in my time zone (I, and Unicode, are in California), and I know you spoke about maybe getting Base131072 made real around the time Unicode 17 drops.

YouTube thinks I don't own part of my original song and you can find more out on @stgiga.blahaj.zone.ap.brid.gy

@qntm.org Apparently it's possible to go beyond the 15 bits per 16bit UTF16 character of Base32768 if you span multiple characters. BWTC32Key uses u3400-u4d01+u4e00-u9eff+uAC00-uC200 but using the entirety of the relevant blocks plus the 472 compatibility Ideographs puts you at 15.25 bits 1/?

@chimericcurios.bsky.social The issue is that prefabs show up in the editor as blank, except for the flag ones. But loading THOSE into a test avatar results in the model showing up as an error ingame. My avatar doesn't do anything too wild (it IS a heavily-tricked out VRoid avatar.)

@chimericcurios.bsky.social I'm having trouble getting your Pride trails for VRChat to work on my avatar. I'm using Unity 2022 and the latest versions of everything.

@qntm.org Apparently Unicode 17 is going to add over 4900 new Han characters (CJK Extension J), and I feel like the "safe" ranges for Base131072 should be assessed based on this.

Notch is a racist. Notch is a misogynist. Notch is a homophobe and transphobe. Do not give Notch your support. Do not give Notch your money.

We need a law stating that persistent abusers of "Intellectual Property" law need to have their "property" confiscated and handed to the Public Domain.

Happy 85th birthday Wendy Carlos, who revolutionised the synth with Bob Moog, made electronic music before Eno & Kraftwerk, & composed scores for Tron, Clockwork Orange and The Shining. A trans icon, Carlos gave few interviews but this BBC one features her beloved cat www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3ca...

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #681,921!

@qntm.org Would Unicode 16.0 have enough safe characters to do Base131072 when it drops tomorrow? (For context, I use Base32768 in my code [BWTC32Key] but with different ranges. Also I made a Node port of my code). Base32768 is precisely why I like UTF16. Also UnifontEX works with your Base32768.

I just updated UnifontEX to fix bugs and add features!

UnifontEX took me well over 5 years (at minimum 6)

I just released the final build of UnifontEX (an improvement of GNU Unifont), which is available here: stgiga.github.io/UnifontEX
