Sonic the Hedgehog 6 and 7 are probably my favorites. i also really liked Sonic the Hedgehog 17, fantastic music in that one

One nice thing about XMPP is that it can theoretically use transports to connect to everything and then some.

I have seen a Matrix/ActivityPub bridge in action, though.

@stux

No one mentioning rockmelon?

I'm urgently looking for work and would appreciate boosts!

@gael @murena I live on planet earth. The one where 24% of humans do not use the internet and 750 million don't have electricity.

And in the UK where the goverment is allowing 6GW of new data centres (against citizen wishes) by 2030 to support AI ambitions even though peak national energy consumption in winter is 45GW. I.e. adding 13%. From where?

It is also November and we still have water shortages in some parts of this famously rainy country.

That is my world. That is why I #ResistAI

yes, it’ll use the original date!

Eh deleted all my reviews after google accepted a claim that my 3* review of one shitty ass shop in Germany was defamation, ignored my response and removed it. Hell, I’d argue it was net positive review (otherwise wouldn’t be a 3* IMO), but the abuse of the system in Germany is wild and clearly Google doesn’t give a fuck just like the rest of their products.

Anyway still waiting for opportunity to “transfer” all my photos from google maps. Ever since they changed what counts as storage use in drive, I’ve used maps to store useful or nice photos from hikes/parks/nature that I didn’t necessarily wanna keep stored on the phone.

Edit: ooh this also does mention the export/import of photos. Guess I gotta try it!

Trump walks back Dana White, fwiw. I really do wonder if he got the wrong Dana White (and had had suggested to him the one ex-Heritage Foundation and DoD)

Never make the mistake of believing that we should fall in love with the struggle.

That is a surefire path to becoming worn down, burned out, and defeated.

We win by returning - over and over again, countless times every day - to the love that we must have in order to have something worth struggling for.

It's not a frivolity or a luxury for "after." It's both what we want and how we get there.

@aral Yeaah. I have definitely tagged issues as "needs more info" or "needs verification" if I didn't have enough info just to be able to filter out things that aren't super actively needing my attention.

Even closing it with "we don't think this will happen anymore" is kinda fine IMO if someone went and refactored a bunch of code or fixed other issues in the same vein. But yeah that response was pretty shitty

@lritter whether they say so officially or not, i'm certain its heavily distilled from claude. it could be a kind of emergent thing that happens when RLing models for coding performance though, by encouraging broader sets of semantic encodings that allow a greater variety in conceptual leaps via synonyms and odd phrasing, at the expense of producing output that humans find increasingly disgusting. but my money's on it just being a distillation thing

@gamingonlinux "Co-op missions and hordes": I'd add "Far Far West" there too, works great on Linux.

Today would have been Aaron Swartz’s birthday. It's a great time to think on everything he did for the open web, digital rights and open access to knowledge. He was a brilliant person who left us way too soon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Swartz

look, a general strike is like Rohan and Gondor. If the Unions lit the beacons, you answer, you don't stop to see if they should have waited or if they should have called for you time ago. The beacons are lit. So we answer.
