Im open for commissions, including icons available for £15-20. I take furry, human, and fantasy humanoid subjects. I really need to bring some cash in, so I would appreciate boosts. #furryart #fantasyart #disabledartist

At the rate things are going, if you are a hobbyist, an independent creator, or even a small business running on tight margins, you need to consider any and all proprietary, closed-source software you use to be an attack vector against your livelihood.

The for-profit corpos behind the software you use can decide to muscle in and extract more profit out of you, whether it be with subs or ads or both.

The UK is banning puberty blockers but only for trans kids. Cis kids can stay on them for years because they know there aren't any serious side-effects. They just hate trans people.

Friends: Who are you listening to right now?

Me, very hip: Oh, you wouldn't know them.

This is a remarkable graph.

You might have heard that "EV sales are slumping", "people are starting to avoid EVs", etc.

That's not what's happening.

What's happening is "Tesla is cratering so hard that it's skewing the aggregate market data."

Or, put differently, "Tesla is failing harder than the entire rest of the market is succeeding, combined."

“Linux is free if you don’t value your time.” That’s true of countless DIY projects, and it’s really more an indictment of the individualist DIY ethos than it is of Linux.

DIY culture really needs to be replaced with a culture of organizing collective labor for a common goal.

Bike parking: build these. Just these. That’s *it*. These stands can accommodate any type of bike. And you can lock the frame to them.

Don’t build ones where only the wheel goes in. Don’t build anything where the mechanism can go wrong.

I know this is boring. But IT WORKS!

I see a friend!

It's YOU!! :D

Howdy friendy-friend! I'm sending you lots of happy and positive energy for your day. I hope you're having a time as wonderful as you yourself are!

You are SO special. You're the only creature that has your exact configuration of delightful traits, passions and experiences. You have so much to offer to the world! Please be proud of yourself, because so many of us are proud of you, too!

Thank you for being your awesome self :D

Many hugs, if wanted, and much love!!

The first email system I managed had about 100,000 users. This was pre- internet, too, in the 1980s.

These days, email is internet-based and dominated by several large companies that gain financially by reading our mail. It's possible to DIY, but it takes knowledge and skill to do so correctly, and avoid being, becoming, or being treated as a spam pump.

I'm backing @mwl's "Run Your Own Mail Server" Kickstarter. I already run my own. I have for decades.

Why? Because he's a great tech writer able to make complex technologies understandable. Even enjoyable! I'm certain to learn new things about email from him.

Decided to try the cloak while wearing my breast forms and it felt amazing!!
