the primal need to be big dragon

Does any of my friends circle have suggestions for good but low-cost web hosting? I may eventually host on my own hardware at home but I'm not ready for that right now. I want a webhost where I can build a website and host a Discourse community forum for my DJ stream community to use (once I […]

Have you considered being a dragon? :dragn_loaf2: This about it: - No more work. :dragn_o: - ~rawr~ :dragn_tea: - Big comfy cave. :dragn_loaf: - Hoard your passion. :dragn_bratty: - Infinite cookies glitch to share with critters friends. :dragn_cookie: - Cute Kobolds helpers. :dragn_aww: Apply […]

No, opposing LLMs isn't "purity culture." I've seen this now from quite a few different people, and I disagree vehemently. It is good, actually, to have moral principles and hold to them, even when people with more money than you find said principles annoying.

First day wearing this new shirt that arrived yesterday. Saw it scrolling by on mastodon a few days ago and had to get one for myself. Can't find the toot anymore, but here's the shop link: https://www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/70096211-stop-forcing-ai-into-fucking-everything-original

The synergies have been leveraged, the verticals are in alignment, the TPS reports filed, and WeaselWorx corporate has finally signed off on the release of my 🔺 Funemployment Dead Dog set from #anthroexpo! https://beat.promo/FunemploymentAnEx26 #anex26 #trance #edm #furrydj #furrydjs #dj #djs

Ahh the joys of cross-posting via #bridgyfed. Mastodon says it's under 300 characters, and Bluesky says that it's under 300 characters too... let's see if Bridgy agrees and cooperates. Knowing my luck, it'll freak out and truncate my post instead. :P Here goes nothing...

Sorry I’m late everyone. I was insulting the gods in a staggering display of hubris.

My experience with generative-AI has been that, at its very best, it is subtly wrong in ways that only an expert in the relevant subject would recognise. So I don't worry about us creating super-intelligent AI, I worry about us allowing that expertise to atrophy through laziness and greed. I […]

what if dragons, but more dragon

MY BLAIN WENT BLERP :wvrnDizzy:

Before transistors, relays were widely used in telephony switches. They were much slower, but much more reliable than vacuum tubes. This 1951 booklet, "NO. 5 CROSSBAR" from Bell Labs describes the bad-ass mainframe of relays. Lots of photos and diagrams […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

🎶 Dergs! All I really want is dergs! And in the morning it's dergs! 'Cause in the evening it's dergs!🎵 :dragnheadphones: #dragonposting #dergs #dragons #dragon

Unrelated, but who's this guy anyway? This is Dragonchat, we need to make him a dragon.

Massive need to just be a loaf of scales and accept all the headpats, rubs, nuzzles, and scritches while being told I'm a good derg rn :dragnloaf:

Strawberry cake from last night! I make this every year for @mathias and I for Valentine's now. Cake is colored and flavored solely by really strawberries cooked down, and the frosting is solely colored and flavored with freeze-dried strawberries ^^ #baking #fedibakes

"..." Amazing artwork from @cantdoxthedrox ~ Thank you so so much, it looks sooo awesome! :neofox_aww: #furryart #furry #art

Adafruit crashing out is so funny. "It's literally misogyny to hate LLMs" Please touch grass

seriously if you're linux-curious but don't wanna fuck up your Important Computer, get a used thinkpad on ebay and pick one of the basic bitch starter distros like mint or ubuntu or cinnamon and play around on it. if you don't vibe with one of those try switching to another before giving up. no risk

Note to self: fingies are not food. Do not attempt to add as ingredient when cooking. :wvrnDizzy:

I'm sorry, but when a chonky dragon ask for a belly rub you can't refuse. :dragn_o: I don't make the rules. #dragon

Why is the Volpeon screaming? ​:wyvScream:​ 1. Why wouldn't the Volpeon scream 2. If you were smart, you'd be doing the same thing

VRChat frustrates the fuck out of me because I honestly, legitimately LOVE the experience of seeing myself in VR, seeing the form match much more closely to what's in my head... But the social aspect triggers a lot of the same social anxiety I have IRL so I am not on it often at all as a result :(

An absolute stranger came up to us at Emo Nite to ask my friends "Hey... who invited the farmer?" And frankly, I'm not mad. I'm excited that my aesthetic is readable.

Gods I wish @linkstack offered themes with user-controllable boxes or shadows behind text blocks for users who want to use a custom background image... Without it, I get fun illegible contrast ratios like this. Wish I knew what I was doing with CSS to make my own theme!

They like them a lot.

Fuck I gotta come up with an idea for a short video for Loops to promote my AnthroExpo dead dog set when I post it up on Mixcloud... But I only got one video of me DJing and it's not great. :/ Maybe I'll just do an audio visualizer over a still image of me behind the decks? Idk. Decisions.

*Purses dragon lips in a fancy way & HUFFFS out giant heart shaped bubbles for y'all to enjoy.* There, I've done my part for the day. ^.==.^

Goddamn the room rate for @furryfiesta.org has gotten ridiculous. $195 a night?? And that's a *discounted* rate for the con?? My poor hoard!! :dragnsob: But it's done and dergs will be there for sure!! I'm super excited! #furryfiesta #furryfiesta26

ITS FLAT FRICK FRIDAY FEBRUARY ! #FLATFUCK #FLATFRICK #Friday #meme

Valentine's day is the perfect excuse to make some Monte Cristos for me and @Rahquuer! And holy fuck I outdid myself this time :dragndrool: These turned out so fucking good!! #food #cooking #dragonkitchen

audio on for the saddest six foot long 160 pound baby #dog #dogs #dogsofmastodon

Some costume heads now are out of their boxes, as I could fit one shelf up.

Happiest of Valentine's Days to my friend @rathios.rawr.no and his lovely wife! It's been a while since I drew these dergs ^^ Go give Rathios a follow, he's new here but he's a delightful person #art #dragons #valentines #love

It's not new art, but idfc, I still love this cute couples commission we got years ago from Orange Dragoness on Twitter. Happy Valentine's Day to my sweet, lovely wyvern @Rahquuer! :dragnheart: :dragnheartwhite:

When someone asks me what I'm doing on a Friday

Do any of y'all do video editing on Linux - and if so, what software do you use/recommend? Specifically looking to make stuff formatted for YouTube/PeerTube or TikTok/YT Shorts/Loops. I've been playing with Shotcut and it seems *really* powerful - but also less user-friendly for quick edits like […]

A Television papercraft kit, which was on the Chao Laboratory website in the early 2000s. Print it off to make your own!

Decisions, decisions.... I think I'm gonna set up a separate account soon specifically for DJ posting, since I want to get moving on streaming along with uploading to and promoting my Mixcloud stuff and I don't want to spam my timeline here... only question is, which instance do I wanna set it […]
