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

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

if you see me mention #GAGSProject that's this: https://cryptid.cafe/notice/AxJRZIJ0k4hAXnDCsq

re: sex work
Show content

@pharmafemboy I don’t know anything about what I’m talking about so take this with a public lobby of salt but:

it seems to me like selling pics online is very oversaturated, to the point that people are filling every available online space trying to get interest for their pics in particular. you might have some luck if you pick a niche kink and can do it well, but the best approach there might be to work backwards: find an online community that allows promotion, and see if it already has a lot of people advertising pics/videos/etc.

also since you’d be starting out without much of a (paying) following, you might consider offering things like personalized voice recordings, or sexting, or other things that make the person paying for it feel special and like they got some of your attention and affection

with IRL sex work I honestly have even less of a clue, but I used to follow a lot of subreddits where sex workers would talk about their jobs and what it was like to do sex work. the big one is r/SexWorkers but also look at all of these. I definitely learned a lot about sex work by lurking in some of these

also have you tried making a post on https://tryst.link/ ? that seems to be the most popular site for escorts, or it was when I was following this community

I hope this is helpful! and I hope you can get a liveable wage somehow. we all deserve that, bare minimum

here are two #unicode web tools that I’ve found incredibly helpful over the years:

What Unicode character is this ? – paste in one or more characters and it will tell you exactly what they are

Shapecatcher – draw something MSPaint-style and this will try to find a Unicode character that matches what you drew!

Proud of myself for a small thing I did to help 🍉⛵

About a month ago, i posted a message to the sumud flotilla, hoping to give them courage & comfort as they set sail

Today, i found out they not only received the message, but they wrote it on the side of one of the boats and directed it at the Palestinian people

Greta put her face in front of it

When i was a child, my father helped invent trans-Atlantic undersea fiberoptic repeaters

He'd be so mad to know im using his invention like this

nixos, bigotry, full time nix podcast

The guy running the "Full Time Nix" podcast who goes by the names "mightyiam" or Shahar "Dawn" Or joined the SC election room last night to ask this.

This is bona fide bigotry, and he should be removed from this community.

But at the very least people representing the community should stop appearing on his platform.

I'll add another receipt to drive the point home. His profile on hachyderm was swiftly banned after this exchange.

OKAY. Windows 10 EOL is right around the corner in ~2 weeks.

Because I've had to put out multiple all-caps panic attack fires within my own friend circle over this bullshit, I just spent my Monday night after work writing an article outlining a few paths forward post 10-pocalypse that anyone wondering what to do can do.

The first thing you need to do is this:

Don't panic.

Achievement unlocked: I have ridden a bicycle with square wheels. This is from earlier this week at our department's "block party" for our majors and interested students.

I'm proud (and a bit intimidated TBH) to work in the same department as Stan Wagon, the mathematician who made the square wheel bike -- and the surface on which you can ride it.

whenever a game has three factions that you can side with, one of the factions will always be fascists, and one of the factions will probably be American-coded

  • in New Vegas the three factions are fascists, American soldiers, and ruthless capitalists
  • in Elite: Dangerous the three factions are fascists, ruthless American capitalists, and the Federation from Star Trek
  • in PlanetSide 2 the three factions are American fascists, freedom-fighters, and Raëlians

also either one of the factions will obviously be the good guys, or all of the factions will kinda seem like bad guys

back in my day “dated graphics” meant it looked like an Xbox/PS2/GameCube game

reviewers will be like “the graphics are a little dated” and I’ll look at the game and genuinely not be able to tell what they’re talking about? I feel like I’m getting too old to understand what bad graphics are anymore lol
