❓ - i love how other plural people were the quickest to dismiss us for supposedly (they're wrong) "not having trauma" and "not having a DID diagnosis" meanwhile the straightest cis people were so welcoming like "oh yeah! ok yeah multiple facets we totally get that, that's cool and we're glad to meet you!" i swear to god marginalized people are the quickest to fucking eat each other like we're all scared puppies biting each other's heads off to get ahead of each other

hearing about the new mastodon board makes me real glad I started running my own gotosocial server: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2024/04/mastodon-forms-new-u.s.-non-profit/ [the board features the co-founder of twitter, a blockchain bro, and most of them don't actually have a mastodon account]

I don't want to abandon my old masto account, but I'm making a concerted effort to shift more and more things over to this one

it's imperative that the fediverse is more than just mastodon

Following up on the analysis of @MF_Dume , here's a blog post discovered by @jdp23 quoting new Mastodon board member Amir Ghavi:

'While the EU is trying to prevent the worst AI harms proactively, the American approach is more reactive. The US waits for harms to emerge first before regulating, says Amir Ghavi, a partner at the law firm Fried Frank. Ghaviis representing Stability AI, the company behind the open-source image-generating AI Stable Diffusion, in three copyright lawsuits. 

“That’s a pro-capitalist stance,” Ghavi says. “It fosters innovation. It gives creators and inventors the freedom to be a bit more bold in imagining new solutions.” '

Hey Mastodon: Welcome to the machine!

here's some shit italo i threw together in 2016 and never figured out how to finish

Another web site that's a time capsule: Computer Video Editing magazine shut down in December 2004, but their web site is still online. computervideo.net/

please take a step to bigger things. things are inherently designed in a way out of bounds in deep fog- and manage to make cool stuff for me

Still on the look-out for the JPI/Clarion TopSpeed TechKit manuals, specifically the Advanced Programming Guide.

It contains information on the TS x86 assembly dialect. I've looked for years for a copy, but I've not come across it.

If anyone has a copy, PDF or otherwise, please let me know!

Should also add, this advice doesn't necessarily apply to everything... if you're coding an app dealing with banking data or something, you should probably know what you're doing first ha

But we're making games! If you have an idea and you're just getting started - dive in, have fun, be creative!
