curious about something. wanna see how big the #GameDev community on mastodon is. are you a game developer?
@eniko I've dabbled occasionally but I don't feel it's enough to apply the label even of hobbyist but I'm at least some kinda gamedev so I picked "something else".
Windows is really inconsistent about using 24-hour time formats when they're set.

Be careful how you are talking to yourself because you are listening.
I'm back from my trip btw, sadly cut short so I didn't get to go visit any friends, but the convention was great.
Setting all my clocks to UTC because fuck time changes and fuck time zones.
Finished my first ever link to the past randomizer seed during my SGlive trip. It was an overworld+door+entrance shuffle. Probably would've been much faster if I took notes.

I’m very adamant about using “toot” instead of “post”. I’ll die on this hill, but hopefully not today because I have lots of errands to run, like buying stamps at the toot office.

I've written out a very, very long blog post intended to be both a refresher for anyone who hasn't been following all this shit and as my side of the story for some of the more contentious elements, and I encourage anyone who cares about this kind of stuff to give it a read when they can: https://blog.silvereagle.dev/d/3z9flj7l49

A growing number of reports indicate #Israeli forces responsible for Israeli civilian and military deaths following October 7 attack.
Many details of what transpired on October 7 continue to be shrouded in mystery, including how the 1,400 Israelis who died were killed. A growing number of reports indicate the Israeli military was responsible for civilian and military deaths.
@draknek It's good to have a system, I think, and then completely ignore the system when you wanna do something else.

Reposting this here because I just learned this art got my account restricted on Twitter for being offensive :3
Enjoy~
@b0rk A sort of work-around for the git commit --amend/git rebase --continue confusion is to always use git add followed by git rebase --continue. Those steps do the right thing whether you're resolving a conflict or editing a commit.

iliana’s gTLD wishlist:
- .txt: no HTML allowed by registry policy
- .trans: telling ICANN it’s specifically for the transportation industry. winking face
- .corn: new and exciting forms of typosquatting
- .internal: we warned you
@lioness But she already lives there and we don't need another one.
@zigg Headspace is an imaginary location that we use to observe and interact with headmates. Ours was intentionally created, but it has its own sun with a time-of-day cycle, which we didn't put there on purpose, and which seems to vaguely correspond with our schedule (sunrise at approximately our normal wakeup time, sunset at approximately bedtime). We don't actually look at the headspace sun, we just kinda sense where it is?
@zigg We can track our circadian rhythm by the position of the sun in headspace, and lately it's been drifting earlier, which had confused us but maybe it was in anticipation?
Now I'm wondering if it works in the other direction, can I imagine the headspace sun somewhere else and change my circadian rhythm that way? Feels unlikely but you never know.
Anyway, we seem to be doing OK with the adjustment so far.
