I’m making a tool that searches Gone Wild Audio reddit posts because reddit’s built-in search doesn’t have a good way to filter the F4A, M4F, etc. notation that Gone Wild Audio uses
and for some reason I’ve decided to make it a webapp that uses Flask, despite the fact that 99% of my scripts are command-line only. it’s going Very Well - I’m pretty sure anyone who actually knows HTML and CSS would recoil in horror just looking at the code
but! every page is one file, and there’s no javascript whatsoever
Dear NASA,
1) please create the .iss top-level domain,
2) please register the domain p.iss,
3) please create a website on that domain that shows the real-time level of the ISS urine tanks
In these moments, Mastodon is basically the only place for us to post NSFW content without being censored.
So, let's try and create a community!
Are you a NSFW artist? Do you create erotica, pin up? Is your craft considered illegal to distribute by the big Master(Card)?
Share, connect with other creatives!!! Don't let them censor us!!
(And remember to tag your art and put descriptions in your images!!)
#NSFW #ArtShare #NSFWart #MastoArt #Lewd #erotica #pinup #art #craft
NGL creative writers (and aspiring, if that imposter syndrome is making you feel excluded by that!!!) should seriously spend some time making alt text for different images. Capturing the essence of visual information in text form is just a perfect exercise. Plus it would just be better for accessibility on fedi!

okay I am finished with technical problems now. no more technology is allowed to malfunction in my vicinity because I am Done fixing things
okay so it looks like the malware has actually corrupted Windows Defender and is still here after all, so I’m going to have to reinstall Windows from scratch and restore my files from a backup, and hopefully the backup hasn’t been infected too
every reddit response to a tech problem:
you deserve it tbh. it’s not even that hard not to have problems like this. literally all you have to do is [extremely time- and skill-intensive Linux thing that they’re clearly humblebragging about being able to do] which is honestly so easy and I think literally everyone should be able to do it
so I’ve decided that I want to dip my toe in functional programming by doing some DailyProgrammer puzzles in Python (the language I’ve used for like 15+ years) but I’m going to do it in a declarative style and treat all data as immutable. I also found a cool functional library called toolz that I want to play around with
toolz definitely has the Clojure “problem” (it’s a problem for beginners like me, anyway) of being cluttered with a fuckton of different functions that are slight variations on things like reduce() or map() or etc., but I wonder if being able to concisely express something like diff(), for example, might be genuinely useful. instead of having to express this as a filter() with a lambda (which is much more explicit)
the reason why I’m not going with F# is just because I feel like the strange syntax (= for comparison, <> for not equal, <- to change a variable, and whatever the fuck | :? is, for starters) would add a lot of cognitive load that would be pretty demoralizing on top of me trying to learn a whole new programming paradigm and feeling dumb and out of my element. so I want to stay at least partly in my element while messing around with this, which is why I’m sticking with Python
although, I might try F# in the future! I definitely don’t like Lisps but it seems like other functional languages have something called monads which are basically like the functional programming version of classes. they address one of my biggest problems with Lisp-like languages, which is that there’s seemingly no way to add context to your data (like “this dict represents a catgirl”) or to group functions that operate on a certain type of data (like “this is a catgirl method that returns a matching botgirl”) or even to clearly indicate what kind of data your functions expect to get
I somehow got infected with a bitcoin miner
I’m like 80% sure that I deleted all of the malicious files (including one that Windows Defender didn’t catch) but I’m now going to put this new CPU through its paces to scan the fuck out of everything on my system just to make sure. all 500+ GB of it. I’m really hoping that there’s nothing lingering that’s going to come back to bite me later
yes i feel extremely normal about the shadow’s game over scene from look outside. i definitely found it horrifying and nothing else

[mental health understander mode activates] good habits feel harder to form than bad ones, because you don't notice the good ones that feel natural and the bad ones that you stay away from. what's left are bad ones that you get something out of and good ones you don't yet feel that you do
