gotta love it when you have long hair and after doing laundry along with the clothes you just pull out an eldritch horror creature made purely out of your own hair

I work with a bunch of transphobes. Whenever they start spewing transphobic garbage, I just stay quiet and don't argue, and just leave the situation ASAP. Why? 2 Reasons.

1- I won't be able to logic them out of a logicless viewpoint.

2- I'm terrified I'll accidentally refer to trans people as "we" and then it'll be all over for me

All public transit should be free.
All education should be free.
Access to the internet should be free.
And you know what? Water and food should be free too. As should housing.

Want to know what a real dystopian corporate cyberpunk ecosystem looks like? Here, welcome to Moscow.

While it is also a dystopian totalitarian cyberpunk city, with absurdly wide centralized face-recognition-powered CCTV coverage actively used for prosecution, it is not the focus of our today's post.

You can rent an apartment using Yandex.Rent (Yandex.Realty is also a thing if you are not a fan of subscription service for an apartment), and if you pay with Yandex.Bank card you get 3% cashback in Yandex.Points. What can you spend Yandex.Points on?

- Get a ride with Yandex.Taxi (the only viable competitor, Uber, was acquired and now operated by Yandex)
- Send something with Yandex. Delivery
- Buy literally anything on Yandex.Market
- Get groceries from Yandex.Lavka
- Get food from restaurants delivered with Yandex.Eats (the only viable competitor, Delivery Club, was acquired and now operated by Yandex)
- Rent a car (or an electric kickscooter) from Yandex.Drive
- Have your own car? You can get fuel, or charge it (if you have an electric vehicle) using Yandex.Fuel (btw you can also buy a car on Yandex' Auto.ru)
- Get some tickets to events on Yandex.Afisha
- Traveling? Get tickets and a hotel room on Yandex.Travel.

Also, did you know they have a virtual currency, ✨. You can get ✨ for using all things listed above, and also for listening to the music on Yandex.Music and watching movies on Kinopoisk (acquired by Yandex). You can convert ✨ to coupons, for example, to get a discount on taxi ride.

How about the classic ecosystem services? Well, they got you covered. Yandex Search, Yandex.Mail, Yandex.Disk, Yandex.Telemost and others are here. And if you need a smart home, the virtual assistant Yandex Alice will happily spy on you.

Want to get somewhere? Yandex.Navigator will help you, and show ads along the way. Want to use public transit? Ah, Yandex.Maps, Yandex.Metro, Yandex.Transport, Yandex.Timetables will help you. Want a very precise forecast for your street? Yandex.Weather knows it.

You can also get education on Yandex.Practicum, Yandex.Academy, Yandex.Tutor and Yandex' School of Data Analysis. And yes, you can pay with Yandex.Pay not only on Yandex. There are also installment plans available with Yandex.Split.

And yes, they are hiring. As a bonus, you will get a free smart speaker and the Yandex.Plus subscription.

this is so cursed

I’m a big fan of the “awesome” list trend on GitHub and elsewhere. Someone shared this one for #sega #megadrive / #genesis development that I thought I would forward on.

github.com/And-0/awesome-megad

I have to admit, I’m still a bit surprised at (my impression of) just how much more lovely the Mega Drive is for homebrew development than the SNES. What’s up with that? I can’t sort it out, but it’s very cool indeed. I’m hoping to dig into the Mega CD specifically this year. I think it’s a really cool and weird transitional system before 3D completely overtook the scene.
