Endless Sky is surprisingly awesome. I'm not much of a gamer, mind you, and I'm not very good at it either. And it's on flathub, or in your favorite repo. #endlesssky #gaming #linuxgaming #fossgaming

So when did CNET start auto-playing dialog on their site? Have they never heard of browsing in multiple tabs? I see no control to turn it off (besides browser muting).

I have a talented, hardworking, totally blind student who wants to program. I want to give her a chance to do research. Any advice from the programmers out there? P.S. one of the best vision scientists of the later half of the 20th century was blind. (Gordon Legge)

One of the lucky career breaks I've had was writing the ACM TechNews and ACM SIGDA email news summaries from 2000-2005. It paid terribly, and I had to be at work at 6:30 a.m. but I learned a whole lot. Anyway, I just saw that the ACM's magazine, The Communications of the Association of […]

Today I am stepping down from my role as the CEO of #mastodon. Though this has been in the works for a while, I can't say I've fully processed how I feel about it. There is a bittersweet part to it, and I think I will miss it, but it also felt necessary. It feels like a goodbye, but it isn't—I […]

📚 A Personal Answer To The Lack Of Space For Books Recently I noticed the ever decreasing lack of space in my home for more books. As a result I decided that I may have to obtain an electronic-reader. This was a difficult decision for me to take as an avowed 'Luddite' I had railed against such […]
