@tempest I completely forgot that Pyre existed I’m ngl

indies need to stop juicing games so much that you can’t tell what’s happening on your screen

lately this has been happening with AA devs too and it’s a bit concerning. I feel like visual clarity is becoming very underrated

hey if any of y’all liked Hades or Hades 2 I highly recommend giving Bastion a try. it’s an earlier game from the same devs and IMO it’s by far the best game they’ve made

there’s also Transistor, but it’s very weird - both in terms of gameplay and story

@noahebalon thanks but I really do want to emphasize the part about the whole "moral panopticon" thing. I've been kicked out of spaces for not immediately getting something or behaving in a way that isn't acceptable without understanding it multiple times and that's the kind of thing that really makes you lose all of your self confidence and you just start thinking that you're irredeemable

I'm gonna say something controversial are you ready. I think that leftist spaces need to have more tolerance for people not quite getting it because people do not learn by being trapped in a moral panopticon. Be nice and understanding and meet people where they are. And for the love of god don't make people read entire pieces of literature or research papers or whatever just to participate, this is not a book club

To anyone wondering if braided cables have any practical use or if they're just a pretty-looking fad: I once had a fever dream where a friend of mine dared me to try and destroy his indestructible self regenerating biological supercomputer, and I found myself unable to, and when I woke up that morning I found out I had been sleeping and had tried very very hard to rip the (braided) cable out of my new and expensive mouse and it just would not break

This is too good.

all drugs should be over the counter

Last night was such a fucking success, holy shit

SO MANY PEOPLE appeared, the club was absolutely packed with young queer people til midnight at least

people kept stopping me and saying how happy they were to have such an event in Katowice

i'm so happy aaaaa

The way people look down on immigrants for not speaking their language perfectly.

Echoes the way neurodivergent people mock neurotypical people for the way they speak.

Both are elitist and supremacist.
That our way of speaking is superior and we don’t need to be flexible or accommodate the way we talk to other people to be better understood.

Communication is a highly valuable skill, it can be learned.

This attitude is really throwing our hands in the air and saying ‘we won‘, when it’s not a competition.

@tempest awww that doesn’t sound good 🫂 I hope that life will get better for you

Everyone wins!

today I learned that when you’re opening a can with a can opener, you’re not supposed to fully detach the can lid from the can. you’re supposed to leave a bit of the lid still attached to act as a hinge, so that the lid doesn’t fall into the can

thanks, Technology Connections!

web dev accessibility tip!
you can write alt text for any <div> just as you could for images with the alt attribute, except you have to use title like so

<div title="the sound emitted typically by alinas">woof</div>

then hover over it with your cursor and it will display just as with image alt texts :)

please especially use this when you're a huge nerd about drawing your networking diagrams and charts in unicode or ASCII art like me

@thermia omg I’m really glad I’m not alone. I’ve been thinking about including details about {what’s hosting this repo, and how is it configured} inside of my resume repo, but I’m not sure if that’s a good idea. it might be a security problem? although my resume is just a static site so I guess I can’t see a way that someone could exploit that information anyway
