Anyway, the (non-electronic) game I hear people play in the closer-to-my-age group is Settlers of Catan etc. And most of the other people are playing whatever casual phone game of the moment is. 🤷
@ai6yr I have several (white) genx co-workers who play mahjong. It sort of seems like what playing bridge (the card came) used to be, lots of groups playing on the weekends.
@carlrichell excellent, thank you.
BREAKING: Lauren Boebert loses her House seat
It's about time. She moved to my district 2 years ago and I hope to never hear from her again.
She left district 3 to move to district 4 in 2024 because she almost lost in 2022. Funny thing is that district 3 is the only red district left in Colorado. Oops.
@moira I'll be honest, this sounds like some Republicans trying to get out from under Trump now that it's lucrative to do so and not a lot else.
@jhooper Shitstain had him primaried - successfully - for reasons, particularly his opposition to the One Big Butt-ugly Bill. Sure, he wants to make a comeback, but his antagonism to the Cheeto is real.
@voxel@merveilles.town nice touch on tge music
@notptr thanks I'm trying to get back into making music, I can make small sections I like but have trouble making anything more than a few bars long
Hmm, glitch in the Fediverse for my users, sorry all. Not sure what happened, but hopefully it is back to normal again.
Dissatisfied with off the shelf game engines lately, been working on my own little cross platform framework, targeting turn of the millenium hardware.
In this test project I haven't animated the player mech's legs so just pretend there are wheels attached 🙏

The GDPR has an equivalent principle in terms of the withdrawal of consent, yes.
The best definition of Roskomnadzor (Russian internet regulator) that I have ever seen.
⭐⭐⭐
"- Of course Roskomnadzor is not doing it by themselves, they get instructions from up there. But I am curious, are they doing anything useful at all?
- Of course, if you are a farmer and you bought an electric fence, it will be of a great help for you, and if you are a cow, it will only be electroshock in your face
- That's the best description of Roskomnadzor I ve ever seen"

today, a lot of CEOs are questioning whether their extramarital partners are only with them because they’re spies extracting high level secrets or if it’s because they genuinely love them for their money
Perhaps men should not be in leadership positions because they are distracted by sexy ladies too easily.*
*This is a parody of red scare anti-gay notions and only 1/3 serious or about current events.
Dating is so bad that the only ones still making an effort are foreign intelligence services
I would love to say that this is just AI psychosis, but at this point I'm asking Claude to write the code, review it, monitor the deployment, identify structural flaws, design the next architecture, etc. My taste and judgment are there, but how much longer can I cling to that? And if I'm saying that, how must *juniors* feel?
Even a year ago you needed a lot of elbow grease, but the mistakes and hallucinations have really gone down since then. The trajectory seems terrifyingly clear.
@nolan how does it feel? how has this affected your collaboration with others?
@dgar Great picture Jon. Silly is always good.
Broader updates are saying Boebert race is "too close to call", though CNN has already projected her loss.
@lauren as someone who is not very well versed in the electoral system in the us, I understand that the number of votes thay separate the contestants is very small. Doesn't this mean that you might end up with another debate like the one that led to the first bush regime?
Hive mind who uses Thunderbird: The latest release, 153, has removed the ability to bulk subscribe to IMAP folders. You have to click the checkboxes one by one. This is a UX disaster, as our new employees have to subscribe to hundreds of existing folders. Surely there's a better way?
(In particular, the click-on-first, shift-click-on-last trick now no longer works.)
