social media is anything but and mastodon has not ever been and will not ever be better than twitter or any similar contrived microblogging platform for as long as it retains the favourite button

After several years away from the project I recently finished the last couple pieces of artwork needed to call it done: Mr. Friendly, a Doom mod where you float around, chill out, fiddle with stuff, talk to the monsters, and do nice things for them. Requires UZDoom, works with almost all existing Doom levels. 2018 Cacowards winner in the Machaward category - which is really the most prestigious award, when you think about it! lol

Apple founder Steve Wozniak jumped into the Slashdot comments on his 75th birthday last year.

The reason that some successful people aren't billionaires is because they use their wealth to make the world a better place. "Success" isn't measured by the number in a checkbook.

Sony: Physical discs are obsolete. The future is digital only.

Me: Okay, then here's my 22 year old PlayStation 2, a modded Network Adaptor with SATA, a 500GB SSD, a FreeMCBoot memory card, and a bunch of PS2 ISOs I grabbed off Myrient before they closed up shop. Oh, and here's my PS3 with PS3HEN installed, and I have a bunch of games on the 1GB SSD I installed in it...

Sony: NO WAIT NOT LIKE THAT

the future is digital only so make sure to download as many games as you want for free from archive.org and vimm's lair

The Apple II stayed productive for years after the Mac tried to run it out of town. It lived, thanks to AppleWorks, which proved how useful 8-bits and 128KB could be, despite 32-bit rumors to the contrary.

I gave it a spin, really wanting to put its promise of "integration" to the test, but struggled to figure out a good project. Then I heard about a program that turned AppleWorks into HyperCard, and my path was clear. Includes copious references to 1984 and turducken.

are you even foss if you don't defend to the doubling down death the 30 year old software naming choice of two tryhard edgelords based off of an inflammatory character in a movie directed by a foot fetishist who uses written self-inserts as an excuse to say racist slurs out loud
