software tinkerer and aspiring rationalist. transhumanist and alterhuman

I try to be very careful about CWing things. sometimes I make mistakes but I want to make my posts as safe to read as possible

I sometimes post NSFW/kinky/lewd things behind CWs. this should go without saying but if you're a minor please do not interact with anything lewd/NSFW that I post

I have very limited energy and am very shy so it might take me a long time to reply to messages sometimes, or I might not be able to reply at all. this is kind of an "output only" account for the most part, but I'm hopeful that I can change that over time

I sometimes use curly braces to {clearly show where a grammatical phrase begins and ends}, like that. you can think of them like parenthesis in code or math, except they operate on grammar instead

@FediTips @kate this is amazing! I’m so glad there’s a website like this to make joining Fedi easier

but, on my version of Firefox 145.0.2, the buttons look pure black and the text is only visible when I mouse over them

for example instead of saying “all your feelings are okay with me”, say “aww babyy! you’re a good girl no matter what you feel. your feelings are always okay 💙”

instead of saying “you can make mistakes - they are your teachers” say “good girl! I’m glad you made this mistake, and felt comfortable telling me. what did you learn from it? [wait for them to reply] that’s right! the fact that you made that mistake and acknowledged it means you’re doing really well. I want you to keep trying hard things and making mistakes for me - okay~? 💙 that’s how you get even better for me”

Doom screenshots, so heavily pixellated video game gore and violence

@ifixcoinops has been doing a thing where he adds 468x60 ads to his website for free and I’ve been thinking about making one for #HideousDestructor ( #HDest ) to hopefully get more people interested in this very niche ZDoom mod

here’s what I have so far - what do y’all think?

this might not be the kind of thing that Dan had in mind though, since it’s not for a hobby website exactly. I would probably link it to some kind of “getting started” guide for the mod

in any case idk I’m proud of how good this looks so far and I’m just happy to have made it. graphic design is extremely not my thing but I think this is Not Terrible and maybe enticing to click

I just had an evil idea lol. so I live in a white suburban American neighborhood which is full of deeply suspicious Christians. it’s even a “gated community”

so for Halloween this year I’m going to find an ornate glass bowl (I’m sure there’s one somewhere in this hoarder house) and put it on this altar cloth that I just ordered

and then I’m going to decorate the whole thing with (fake, electric) candles, fill the bowl with candy, and put it all outside for trick-or-treaters

I hate this UI element so much. I can never tell if it’s supposed to be on or off. like I know it changes color but does the slightly darker teal mean “on” or does the slightly lighter teal mean “on”? does left mean on or does right mean on? and every UI has a different set of colors to mean “on” and “off”. it drives me crazy

please just use checkboxes

#electronics beings of Fedi, can you please tell me how to #repair this switch in my electric kettle? it looks like it’s been exposed to a lot of water (hot water leaked into the electronics of the kettle) and it’s rusted. the problem is that it doesn’t complete the circuit when it’s in the “on” position. I want to either disassemble and clean the rust off of it or just buy a replacement switch

but, I can’t even disconnect it from its electrical connectors. they look like you can just pull them off, but I’ve been pulling fairly hard and they won’t budge

so my questions are:

  • how do I get the electrical connectors to disconnect?
  • is there a way to disassemble this switch?
  • should I even be messing with this, or should I just buy a new kettle?

what the fuck did they do to the youtube UI

why do corpos always do this constant UI churn instead of fixing or improving anything

pixel art gun

I decided to dabble in #PixelArt yesterday and made this. I feel like I could’ve done a better job with shading but I’m a little proud of it - especially since I basically don’t do pixel art at all

(this is traced from an actual picture btw)
