now i'm not saying that evolution and new developments shouldn't be made

but i don't think that the conglomerate that couldn't keep an RSS reader afloat should be in charge of what those new developments look like

it's interesting how in computing fields we say that anything old "sucks"

"zip compression sucks" so do internal combustion engines but for a while it was pretty much the only form of powering a car

there's a lot of this shifting perception of something being stationary while what moves is time and how it changes how we think and talk about it that i don't think other fields particularly have

or maybe i'm just spewing bullshit again. but i still think there's brain rot in computing

Most recent project, Real grade GP01-FB, gundam zephrantes full burnen (full vernien makes more sense but this is how it got translated ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
This was a fun, challenging build of a really cool mobile suit, I love the detachable core fighter and the little Vernier thrusters around the chassis, definitely worth it

My next plans are 1: find the time to sit down and build the RG hi nu I have sitting around with my wife, and 2: find the money for a HG gundam ground type to build a custom based on an idea I had, I should probably also find a good display pose for my gp01fb

Hey! Did you know I once put #Doom and #gameboy (playable!) on credit card machines? Or ported Wordle to #PalmOS ? I've been plumbing all sorts of #tech into all sorts of other tech professionally for almost a decade now (unprofesionally for 16 years!) with an intimate knowledge of the inner workings of computers and low-level embedded code. I can also do killer hand-crafted #webdesign without relying on platforms or frameworks! And I can draw you in #pixelart for a modest price!

I'm currently 99% unemployable due to being legally in Brazil and physically in the UK. I've been without a stable income for 2 years now and I desperately need something my way. If you know of any commission or contract work that won't bug me with where I am geographically, please let me know!

The Wordle port: https://palmdle.maple.pet/
Pixel art:

My github (under an alias, but it's me):
https://github.com/Lana-chan

The credit card machine ports were done while employed at a fintech where I was hired to maintain their embedded applications, so I had an SDK and dev units, sadly no hardware hacking involved. Anticlimatic, sorry! The elderly engineers there were very impressed, though!

TheBadSpace, Death Threats 

This is a safety thing now. You need to defederate thebad.space sources and defenders ASAP. Are0h is literally being friendly with a defender of his who sent someone critical of thebad.space death threats. He called tech.lgbt kiwifarms and now he's actually endorsing death threats. For the safety of you and your users, cut ties immediately

❄ transfems you make sure you're practicing security culture and don't be easily identifiable. we already had to deal with death threats from fascists and now they're coming from liberals too, so be safe. :transheart:
