🤔 project to watch as many rediscovered films as possible

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_rediscovered_films

the rate at which friends are using them willy nilly also deeply upsets me. even for just jokes.

i have not touched the thing and will not, i refuse this future that is killing even more of the community aspect of the internet

i hate watching my hobby (computers) be irreparably defiled by AI, it makes me so deeply sad

eating that danish injection molded cheese

I'm trying to render a frame of Doom on paper. yes this is a normal thing to do

heh, wireshark,

The venerable diagramming app Dia has a strict anti-AI policy. That's enough of a reason for me to give it another try.

Mozilla are pathetic, Firefox is back to posting on X/Twitter.

Brothers in harms.

much like bicycles and sex, basketballs are a conspiracy by Big Rubber to sell more rubber. and I'm on their payroll

saw this weird and quintessentially Seattle event flyer on a random Telegram channel and feel that someone i know would find this interesting

Holy moly, apparently Minecraft has switched to SDL3: https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/minecraft-26-3-snapshot-4

instead of "autistic masking" it should be called cloaking. á la star trek. it eats a lot of power, you can't use all your systems while you're doing it, and you only ever need it to get through enemy territory alive

And they call it ‘progress’

I call it unnecessary destruction

@jakehamilton - a general use programming language with both a plaintext-based representation and a node-based visual representation that can be switched between at will, as an easier onramp for non programmers to learn the skills and get useful / fun things done on a computer
- a gamelike "learn computing concepts" interactive primer written in said language
- version control for non programmers that's usable for text as well as binary files, eg images, audio/video etc
