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

if you like a post where a person is talking about killing themselves that means that you like that that person wants to kill themselves, there is no other interpretation for the wording x has liked your post that i can infer in good faith and this is why i tell people not to like my negative posts unless they like that i'm in misery because if you want to convey anything else you have 26 letters and punctuation at your disposal

Jesus fucking Christ, Cory, this is patently ridiculous.
He doesn't engage with Audre Lorde's actual intention & meaning. No, he brings up a Black woman thinker/writer/activist, assures us he knows how "smart" she was, & then dismisses her words out of hand without even superficial engagement by using a cute little analogy.
I'm not trying to nitpick: that is some real colonizer bullshit.

New Secret Area post: On random memes, old game shows and "Glunch."
A meme among me and a few friends goes from a silly image on Tumblr to me discovering the show the image is from. One of my nerdy pop culture journeys.
Shares and comments appreciated!

I came across a functioning coder today asking if a kilogram was 1000 or 1024 grams.
Yes they did ask, yes they verified, yes they accepted 1000 grams.
I swear ten thousand years in the future some fucker will 'oops, black hole!' 'cos they began in comp sci and learned kilo = 1024 first and NOBODY WILL CATCH IT. Humanity will be WIPED OUT because YOU LOT KEPT THIS SHIT UP.

at some level you have to be impressed with the ease and frequency with which the thought "i want to kill myself" can crop up in your head

The latest game poem by @alienmelon hits so hard.
It's time to throw the horrors away and plant gentle flowers.
killer tofu by the beets is unironically like the perfect rock song

As much as I'm all in favour of blaming AI bros for the RAM shortage, there was always going to be a squeeze on RAM prices for some reason eventually, and we really did make sure it would be maximally painful for ourselves when we started treating RAM as functionally free.
RAM prices in 2026 are about the same as they were in 2008 when the original MacBook Air launched. It had 2GB of RAM and it ran like a goddamn dream. There is absolutely zero technical reason we couldn't ship an even better computer with 2GB RAM today — except everything these days is a JavaScript app running in a dedicated Chromium instance and needs at least its own gigabyte to run around in.
That said, it's probably pretty safe to blame AI bros for everything being a Chromium instance — I'm willing to bet it's largely the same people trying to ship something that just about works with the absolute minimum of time and effort now as it was then
according to steam next fest i have played games tagged "abstract" and "1990s"
