Solving difficult integrals:
1. try u substitution
2. try integration by parts
3. maybe partial fractions will help?
4. nope. trig subs?
5. remember that that integral is one that you can't do by hand and need to look up from the back of your old calculus textbook
6. remember that you got rid of that textbook years ago
7. remember that wolfram alpha exists
8. put it into wolfram alpha
9. wonder why you didn't do this in the first place
10. why did you need to solve that anyways?

no, computers werent a mistake

no, the internet wasnt a mistake

the mistake was letting capitalism have control of these things

When I say “making games accessible to all kinds of people is important” and you say “but that puts more crunch on developers,” the logical conclusion isn’t “accessibility isn’t worth it” it’s “ban crunch and form unions”

Also, I'm sorry, but "Actually it's for pleroma support" ISN'T the slam-dunk defense you think it is lmfao

Also I just realized the actual account for Husky showed up in my original post and

Didn't even disclaim being a Nazi app

Soooooooooooooooooo

a very simple way to get me to stop calling your app the Nazi app is to link me to the code in your repo that prevents people from logging into Gab.

this is also the only way to get me to stop calling your app the Nazi app

if your fediverse app lets you login to a gab account it's a fascist app. no ifs, ands, or buts. spare us the "uwu the app shouldn't police what users use" nonsense

NSFW 

I also wrote up a little NSFW sex-fighting addition called Headscissor, which adds some sexual mechanics into the game, in case that's something you're into.

Unlike Headlock, this hasn't received any playtesting, so if you try it out, let me know what changes you think need to be made!

BTW, I never mentioned it, but with my website, I also published v2 of Headlock! If you don't know what that is, it's a little dice and cards wrestling ttrpg I came up with. If that sounds like your kind of thing, why not check it out?

And, as always, if you think any balance tweaks need to be made or you have any ideas, let me know!

stuffs from my past 

Ya know, back in high school, I was voted most likely to succeed, to which I responded "define 'succeed'." I think about that a lot, especially as I sit here in a guest bedroom of my mom's house trying to figure out what I'm gonna do with my life. I really do wonder sometimes what everyone really expected of me. What did they mean when they thought I would "succeed"? The world may never know.

So, what would happen if I had an unsecured database out there that just contained a bunch of entries consisting of nothing but the word "meow"? Would they all be wiped and leave me with a single "meow" or would one more just be added?

Creative professions are deeply undervalued. Artists, writers, and all kinds of creatives are underpaid. People shamelessly steal their work and treat it like a disposable commodity. People act as if it just magically appeared one day and don't bother to credit whoever made it.

Ironically, people everywhere keep trying to use that same work to make money, without having done any of the work themselves.

Our society dismisses creators while voraciously consuming the things they create.

Seriously, I hope people stop referring to the things they create as "content". You're not just making generic stuff to fill up space on a website owned by people who don't care about it. Your work deserves more respect than that. You deserve more respect than that.

The worst thing about 21st century internet culture? The fact that two generations of people have been conditioned to refer to everything they do as "content".

Are you a writer? An artist? A photographer? A film maker? A blogger? It no longer matters. You're a content creator and something something monetisation.

Re: Music stuffs 

Before anyone says anything: Yes, I'm aware Baroque is post-Renaissance, not medieval. I took art classes for six years that had a heavy art history aspect to them. I'm not stupid.

Stupid fucking techbros 

Listen, dumbasses. If you really gave two shits about "separating the concepts of name...from gender identity," you wouldn't have made your stupid AI and sold it as a way to determine gender from name/whatever in the first place. Fuck the hell off.
