Y'all...
Fox girlfriend insisted that I refer to myself in the third person and as "princess". So, I tried it on.
Everytime I do it, she does the CUTEST giggle I think I might have ever heard.
So I guess my pronouns are princess/princess's now đ€·ââïžđž

@tempest flavor a infinite scrolling: it actually keeps stuff in memory for everything it shows so it slowly blows up my ram
flavor b infinite scrolling: it recycles all the items and caches nothing so itâs slower than pagination but also somehow less usable
also the scrollbar isnât useful in flavor a or b

My girlfriends are sitting on the chair and chase, and I am finishing up what I need to do with the casserole before putting it in the oven.
T: Rayne, didn't you say you were going to get a shower?
Me: Yes. But I also said that I needed some guidance in getting a shower. You know, someone to lead me in there, make sure I get the shower started, hop in there if needed. You know, motivation.
R: If you don't get in the shower, we're gonna call it a "hot dish".
Me: *stomps angrily toward the shower* Not fair, grrr, fuck Minnesota

@rowan this is such an insightful post
I keep wanting to mentally separate supremacy from {a lack of empathy and moral concern for a group} - as if itâs a mistake to conflate the two - but I donât think thatâs the case. I think that as soon as we feel superior to a group, we automatically lose at least some amount of our empathy and moral concern for members of that group. I donât think that a feeling of superiority of any kind towards another person/creature/thing can exist without the implicit understanding that the target of this supremacy has a less valuable life than oneâs ingroup
even for beloved pets, the average American is not going to spend thousands of dollars in cancer treatments to save them from death. but they would for a family member. instead theyâre going to âput them downâ in order to save money. itâs telling that human euthanasia is illegal in the US due to moral concerns, but completely normalized for pets
I donât think that it is a contradiction at all to be able to honestly say âI love my pet dog so much. theyâre one of the most important things in the world to me. but if they get sick and the treatment is more expensive than I want to pay I will choose to kill them in order to save moneyâ. I think that human neurology is perfectly capable of deeply loving a thinking creature while also valuing its life this little
and thatâs something that I want to emphasize, that Rowan alluded to in its post: it is entirely possible to believe - with no malice or anger whatsoever - âthe lives of [outgroup] hold no value and they must all be exterminated, because their existence harms [ingroup]â. if this doesnât make sense to you, try mentally replacing [outgroup] and [ingroup] with âmosquitoesâ and âhumansâ respectively. now try mentally replacing them with âimmigrantsâ and âwhite Americansâ
I think it is so important to be able to understand this flaw in human empathy, that allows atrocities to happen. we canât just dehumanize supremacists into cartoon villains, because that is implicitly denying that we have the same capacity to do and think like they do: that supremacy comes as naturally to us as it does to them. and that is exactly why we still have fascists

kasdeyahey if any Fedi beings know about Windows #ReverseEngineering Iâd love some advice or help!
Iâm trying to figure out how the anti-save-scumming system for a game called Teleglitch works. hereâs what Iâve figured out so far:
- when you make a save, the game also secretly hides information about the save somewhere (the information seems to only consist of âthe next save that the user loads should be for level XYZâ or âthere should be no savefile. if thereâs a savefile, itâs invalidâ. all other edits to the savefile are accepted by the game as correct - including edits that instantly freeze the game)
- when you try to load the save, the game compares the secret information with the information in the savefile. if the information doesnât match, the savefile is considered invalid and the game refuses to load it
- the savefile is stored in a Steam Cloud directory called
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\«some numbers»\«more numbers»\remote - the secret information is definitely not stored in this directory (I made the whole thing into a git repo and used that to ârewind timeâ to make 100% sure)
- the secret information is also not stored in the gameâs directory (
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\TeleglitchDME) (same thing - I made it into a git repo) - Iâve checked every registry operation and every file I/O operation using Process Monitor but Iâm 90% sure that Process Monitor is missing certain important things that Teleglitch is doing - maybe because itâs delegating tasks to {another process / a subprocess}? but Process Monitor canât even see Teleglitch write to the Steam Cloud save directory mentioned above
- I tried looking through the executable in Ghidra and the savefile code is definitely in there somewhere, and Iâve been able to kinda make sense of some of it, but Iâm not very good with disassembly / decompilation. Iâd love some help with this if anyone is interested. it looks like it was probably written in C++ and Iâve found some very good places in the executable to start looking for savefile behavior but Iâm baffled by a lot of what Iâm seeing - I think a lot of it was automatically added by the C++ compiler
anyway I would love some advice on what to try next. Iâve tried to summarize just the most important parts of what I know about Teleglitchâs behavior, but I can explain more if anyone is interested!

*Another hypothetical conversation where I go back in time and talk to my much younger, pre transition self, because thats a fun way to present happenings in my life*
Me: So, you're going to date the hottest girl on the whole east coast
Young me: đ€©
Me: ...and she's going to be super into you, a great cuddler, really cute, and kinda literally foxy.
Young Me: đ„čđ»
Me: ...and you're both going to yearn for you to throw her in the trunk and kidnap her
Young me: đ°

@thegarbagebird oh thatâs an extremely good observation and i think i completely agree. kirk has (had?) a face that one can look at and mourn but itâs much harder to identify those he has hurt.

@rowan agreed, totally. not to bring everything back to recent events, but a slightly under-appreciated reason the media has been so friendly to the white supremacist; as much as they may have ostensibly disagreed with his rhetoric, he was a real person to them, the countless victims of his hate are abstract concepts to the protected classes.
