Driving is difficult, especially when it’s “easy.” It’s a serious responsibility with life and death stakes every time you get behind the wheel. If you’re not cut out for it that’s fine as long as you adjust your life accordingly.

"Bluesky is an echo chamber." "Bluesky doesn't have enough reach" "Liberals must return to X to challenge the far right" I'm not a tech bro or a journalist. Your priorities are not my priorities. Stop telling me I need to do anything other than chat about comics & telly with people who seem nice.

hey search engine, I'm looking for information on how to do [thing] with [application] search engine: okay so you want to know how to do it with [other application]

Additionally, Amazon recently announced they are adding AI features to Kindles so watch out for that too when updating software.

Like half of my immediate family are tech people but not in the specific domains I am trying to learn, which means that I sadly do not have anyone offline to ask stupid questions to

Iceshrimp sounds like a firefox fork.

Instead of things being illegal, they should just be "that's a dick move"

Reminder to always look up at https://join.wafrn.net/ because we do actually have other instances! Give them some love!

The idea is not to scale to the infinite. The idea is to scale up to when the server costs 100€ month. At that point we go into diminishing returns

is is possible to block like. an entire atproto domain??? instead of just a user? just got spam for the first time and of course it's from the AT side, and it's a site I've seen others mention in relation to spam

An example that springs to mind is how to get good emulation of an old games console like the SNES, you actually need a way beefier machine than the SNES itself ever was. Truly accurate emulation wasn't even technically possible until computers caught up with bsnes' requirements in like the 2010s.

my reference sheet, every single art of the new design and quite a few christmas gifts i was working on everything is just GONE i lost EVERYTHING please if you know of anything that can be done

Wanted to try to go for a more “edgy” and “cool” drawing, so I made something my younger self would pop off about :3

those cheap "cartoon classics" dvds that are filled with random public domain cartoons from the 30s. in a hundred years they're gonna have the same thing but with vines #shitpost

every time I'm reading something, especially if it's instructional, one of the things I look for is what *isn't* written. What things are stupid obvious to the writer but could completely trip someone unfamiliar with the subject up?

Due inflation, 67 is no longer the funy number. According to my calculations, the new funy number is 69

wafrn communicating well with bsky means that I get to occasionally see the shadows of immense stupidity from my comfy fediverse home filled with yinglets and creatures making various noises at each other like sipping hot cocoa by a fire while watching a friend get pelted by snowballs

Would be a good idea

time to play "am I just cold or is this anxiety that I am somehow not consciously feeling" #would-not-be-the-first-time

Today someone (@maelstrom) could contribute to the wafrn app from scratch almost unprompted and get a PR merged in the same day This proves how far we have come in making the environment easy to work with and I'm a bit proud about that

I’m so serious. Please read books. Please support indie artists. Please engage with the real world instead of throwing all of your hard earned money at corporations that would exploit you for your inner ear bones if they found they could turn a profit from it.

Sorry about the spam, I'm trying to keep up with posting old art!!! This is Coyotewhistle or Coyotespit! #oc #warriorcats #art

Microsoft always makes great quality software

woody waterboarding buzz lightyear in his own helmet. ultra realistic style woody smiles as buzz feels like he's drowning. mr. potato head in background looks on in horror. screen pulses black as buzz fades out of consciousness. ultra realistic heartbeat sounds

I need to figure out how to edit the outlines on posts so I stop thinking people talking about how it's okay to be horny are saying it unprompted on posts about site errors

Whatever spin you may hear from politicians, there are only two actual positions on healthcare. “Universal healthcare that covers everybody,” or “we must protect the huge industry of insurance middlemen making money off of it.”

I've hit broken links on actual websites because of people naïvely assuming that Discord is an image hosting service, before they *extremely* predictably started deleting images after an interval because they are a chat app and not an image hosting service

brainify wrapped: you maladaptively daydreamed about your ocs for 585,872 minutes! you felt the cold hand of terror grab you by the throat 242 times! your favorite thing to dwell on late at night was the future of the earth! you spent most the time rotting in your bed!

Discord is such a stupid app. Every spare pixel is monster energy drink, everyone tossed out their searchable and archivable wikis and forums for it, and it's obviously not gonna exist in 3 years.

Valve has now rejected my complaint, confirming that "I don't like muslims" is a valid reason to leave a negative review on a game on Steam This is where we're at now.

I will not reply. Replying is the mind killer. Replying is the little death that brings total obliteration. I will face the dipshit. I will permit them to pass over me and through me. And when they have gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see their path. Where the dipshit has gone[...]

Me when the artist posts something that has a 50/50 split of people going "wow cool!" and "FUUUUCK THIS IS SO HOT HOLY SHIT" but I can't spot the kink

This is why bsky needs edit feature, so you can use alt4me tag and have others write for you. I write alt text, but there are days when I completely have 0 energy for this, especially if the piece is complicated

there is never enough

In tumblr RP blog culture it was customary to send an ask from an ask game before boosting it yourself. That might be a good norm to bring here too.

also sites that don't let you change your password to something it was before are so stupid like a) why are you keeping track of that and b) why are you - a machine - telling me what to do
