We've had many springs so far this year, but this is the first one where I rode an escooter for a bit so it's the first one that counts.

Found a diagram depicting my hotel shower's temperature dial.

Soooo... For All Mankind is just diving all in on being a soft adaptation of Red Mars this season huh?

I submitted a run to puwp, my first marathon submission in... A long long time. There's a lot of reasons I've been away from streaming and running for all this time, and not a lot of them have changed, but I'm pretty excited about the thing I submitted. :)

Looks like Avi Lewis won the ndp leadership vote on the first ballot. #cdnpoli #ndp #ndpldr

I'm surprised there isn't some version of jazz jackrabbit on steam...

I kinda think the scrubs revival is probably doomed for the same reason a lot of these revivals are: it can't commit to either just being a continuation or passing the torch. It adds a bunch of new younger characters, but won't commit to giving them the same central role the original cast had […]

RE: https://sunny.garden/@Mustbetuesday/116291057155965451 Hey i feel like there's a lot of authors out here actually and some of them might have needed to figure out how this settlement applies to anthologies? Is Jamie's understanding about whether they can file a claim correct? And while I […]

https://edmontonjournal.com/news/local-news/businesses-edmonton-public-transit-push God a bus lane down Whyte Ave would be amazing. I really really hope this happens.

Oh I see that in amongst everything else wrong with AHS they've decided to enshittify their lab results website with like.. Quests and goals and just one more helpful tour of things you don't want, we promise. And of course, a new privacy policy to agree to. Bro I just wanna see my a1c result.

PSA: Something to keep in mind when inviting people to a mastodon server you're on is that if your server is quite small, taking on even one multi-thousand+ follower account might result in a significant increase in the cost and difficulty of running that server. Even just the migration itself […]

https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=section&a=details&id=41254 If you've ever watched someone play kaizo mario and thought it looked cool but also like you could never do it, I highly recommend trying out this particular hack. It is by far the friendliest kaizo hack I've ever seen, and I think anyone […]

I saw someone walking down the street today with a shirt that had hot pink MUNI font lettering of the word CUNT and I was so tempted to leap out of the car and beg her to be my friend.

[Star trek discovery and starfleet academy minor spoilers, mildly snarky] I think it's really funny that they had to throw the Discovery 800 years into the future to avoid messing up the timeline with a clearly superior engine design, and then *still* had to contrive a new technobabble reason […]

I aspire to Lisa Gilroy levels of chaos gremlining.

Does anyone have a pointer to the final OSF/1 Mach microkernel Open Source release? Right now searching for “osfmk” just gets me Apple xnu and MkLinux sources, and I’d like to find something without either Apple or Linux bits… Maybe Utah Lites has it? #opensource #retrocomputing #mach

What is a spring, really? A miserable pile of snirt.

Anyone else still mildly salty about how their first exposure to Queer as Folk was to the American version and not the original British so they didn't get the pun in the title until many many years later, after both were off the air?

Something I wish more metroidy games stole from Super Metroid is the way the bosses have various unique interactions with specific weapons or techniques. Like how Draygon reacts to screw attack, Draygon and Ridley react to power bombs, how Golden Torizo reacts to missiles and super missiles, or […]

Speaking of PhysicsGirl y'all Diana just posted her FIRST SCIENCE VIDEO IN 3 YEARS this morning, ever since she got Long COVID. LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOO https://youtu.be/B3m3AMRlYfc?si=lo9aqVSD8FijQWRD

[Being negative about the future of software engineering as a profession] It's still wild to me that anyone thinks that somehow software engineering is going to be the first field in the history of automation where only senior jobs will be left if it's all automated. I'm sorry, I have a lot to […]

CAUTION: EVENTS IN CALENDAR ARE SOONER THAN THEY APPEAR

https://mas.to/@RikerGoogling/116138758162263737 The better question is why do they still work after.

Rip Warner Brothers :(

Now that I have the "real mastodon quote posts" instead of the "quote posts everyone other than mastodon had", I can say that I very very much do not like the failure mode where a post is just a short pithy contextless comment over "post pending approval". That's some really janky ux, even for […]

I wish I could retire(*) (*) retire (v): work in a coop that made enough money to pay well and was made up of queer people who genuinely also want to make the world a better place but don't have silicon valley-style delusions of grandeur about how to do so.

https://youtu.be/RuuyCOnuBDA Thanks to this video I am now convinced that the ideal American Taskmaster casting would be Jason Mantzoukas as taskmaster and Hank Green as the assistant.

Does anyone have access to the full text of this article on Cities:Skylines? https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-032-02076-5_12

[Starfleet Academy tv show spoilers] Wait wait wait Tawny Newsome played Illa Dax??? Damn she really has become the queen of star trek at this point lol.

https://letsencrypt.org/2026/02/18/dns-persist-01.html This is such a game changer for self-hosting intranet kinda stuff. Dns-01 really sucked from an ops perspective, but it was the only way to get wildcard certs.

I love how they use up the whole ice for the Olympic hockey medal ceremonies.

Wonder how many people just searched the internet for Olympic hockey overtime rules lol

RE: https://mastodon.tomodori.net/@vga256/116098363062469806 Women's hockey is so great and this game is amazing. :o

Ah I see we have returned to a yellow snow warning from environment canada...

First really rough speedrun attempt at @ClarusPlusPlus' demo of Enigma Heart came in around 50 minutes with a lot of deaths, only some of which were intentional lol. That's down a lot from the 4ish hours I spent on the initial playthrough. I figure a good run of it is around 20 minutes. This […]

https://youtu.be/3k9Yy-o6tpo I like how every castlevania game after the first few just makes you wonder why Simon Belmont sucked so much at running, jumping, and whipping when apparently all his ancestors were so incredible at those things. Anyways this looks fun!

https://youtu.be/_ChQK8j6so8 Just posting this video without context as to why it might be a mood I'm feeling. Iykyk I guess.

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DUjaBEvEt2h/ Lol lunar new years in the prairies (Sorry for insta link, if I happen to find this posted somewhere better I'll update the link)

I had an interesting conversation on here recently that made me realize that maybe not everyone who uses Mastodon knows that you can use filters as a way to add content warning to other people's posts? https://stefanbohacek.com/blog/on-fediverse-content-warnings-and-filters/ #fediverse […]

Btw noticed yesterday that Neuron escooters are out. Definitely the earliest I've seen rental escooters available in Edmonton. And a far cry from that year none were out until like may. #yeg

https://streetcomplete.app/?lang=en Ohh this is a very neat way to encourage people to add info to openstreetmap... The "quests" I get for the area around my house could probably keep me busy for months lol

https://youtu.be/oV8qO2-PsCA This best of three super metroid map rando tournament match is incredible. Especially when you have some idea of the relative skill levels of the racers (oats is one of the best in the world and nevdi is very very good but not quite in the level)

The hockey canada website will generate calendar files for the Olympic hockey games for you, but they have no timezone info in them so they're all in eastern time 🙄
