@memoriesin8bit it's not a functional driver yet as is, but it comes down to the fact that xinput just can't support the steam controller without stripping it down to only the inputs also found on an Xbox controller working. sdl already allows devices to read all the inputs of a steam controller, it's just that there's no equivalent of xinput yet that has done the work to support more types of controls as a basic desktop driver. it is fully functional under Linux however due to valves drivers
@memoriesin8bit there's already work to fully support the new steam controller under SDL, which is looking like it should be an easy slot in alternative to xinput as a driver

That's it. There's more you can do, but spend a few days with a proper web browser and a real ad blocker and you'll get it.
There is no Notepad++ for any Mac, but a vibe-coded port and its sloperator "author" want you to believe otherwise.

I hate zionists so much. Having cultural memory of being displaced, ethnically cleansed, and being the victims of genocide and then doing that to someone else? It requires virulent, dehumanizing racism, disgusting hypocrisy, shocking entitlement, and deep and contemptible cruelty. "Liberal" zionists are just as guilty for trying to legitimize their supremacist ideology and settler-colonial project. From the river to the sea, gey kacken afenyam.

My "AI as a Fascist Artifact" article is obviously massively influenced by @danmcquillan's work in "Resisting AI" but my direct references to that book had to be cut from the talks the essay is based on due to time constraints and I then didn't add any back to the text.
Big oversight so I added it back into the article. Read Dan's book, it's the best writing on the link between "AI" and fascism out there.

@afreytes a pretty consistent running theme of the show and it's successors is the military obsession with control over the program generally causes problems and and hampers efforts to actually make allies and survive, generally the military characters end up deferring to and learning from the civilians on the team
now imagine this happening everywhere... imagine the mindset shift it would create... imagine how radically it would improve people's lives, all while still existing side-by-side with capitalism (for now). Imagine the pressures it would put on a system that's brutal and exploitive when they can actually get their needs met outside of that system.
