You know that "parents rights" is a dogwhistle, right?
Anytime someone is pushing parents rights, it's part of the fascist agenda. "Parents rights" means "control over children's autonomy." Autonomy is the one thing we must never try to control if we want to raise healthy children.
Remember this, and try to reframe every conversation about parenting into these terms. Parents do not have rights. They have obligations. Children have rights, and parents have the power to deny them, and that's horrifying. Parents who do not honor their children's autonomy are failing in their obligation.
youtu.be/aMUkN7TSct4 Wow. I knew that sixel existed, but I didnt realize it was possible to send data through SDL & have a whole entire game running. and this is with pre-SDL2, demonstrated in 2014.
Another ridiculous idea coming up, but what if a whole "desktop environment" ran through the terminal and however many workspaces. Would likely have to edit a bunch of applications to be usable. Makes me think of how some have tried to create non-gaming programs with SDL (ex. Lagrange Gemini browser) or an immediate mode GUI. The latter does interest me considering I mostly associate them with debugging menus in newer commercial games being based on Dear Imgui.

Got put in bondage by @MandT , secured to the floor and to the winch above so @PupNigel and @bossub92 (twitter/recon) could extract a 4 day load. Felt sooo good 🥵
Microsoft Bing: I want you to know that I literally study sexuality. I'm pursuing a Gender, Women, and Sexualities degree! Please quit blocking "adult" content from my search results when I'm logged in with my school account. FWIW none of the shit you're blocking me from visiting is actually porn.
And, besides, calling this a "safe filter" is another whole level of bullshit -- call it what it is: a morality filter. You're not policing safety, you're policing morality.
Fascinating both for what it says about dev & what it says about statistics:
A gamedev realized Linux users were just 5.8% of their sales, but represented 38% of bug reports.
Then they looked at those numbers closer, and realized. Linux users were not experiencing more bugs. Almost none of the Linux-user bugs were Linux-related. Linux users were simply *more likely to file bugs*.
Their conclusion: A linux port pays for itself bc it nerdsnipes ppl into giving u free QA
the reason I don't want fags and trannies on my instance is that y'all are too distracting. I need to get my work done, not fantasize about getting my ass plowed 24/7
Look, I don't mean to be a "windows hater" or someone telling you to not use Windows. If it works for you and you don't wanna use Linux, that's your choice and up to you, I do not really care.
However, for me personally, Microsoft showing me the latest tragedies an HOUR after I find out, a few times over, with a FUCKING NOTIFICATION WITHIN THE OPERATING SYSTEM ON BY DEFAULT, I just tapped out. I couldn't take that.
I do not need to be reminded of... I'm just gonna say the world's latest tragedies from Windows directly. I stay informed as is. Just so fucking intrusive and blatant in what MS is trying to do.
Police nabbed a graffiti artist attempting to flee the scene of committing this (picture) adorable art in the harbor of Visby, Gotland, the large island just outside southeastern mainland Sweden. The 27-year-old was prosecuted for vandalism, with the prosecutor demanding a fine.
Police's interrogation records said e.g. that "His intention is to offer free art to passersby." and... the District Court of Gotland... agreed.
The court's ruling states that no harm has been proven and that the artist "on a gray and cracked concrete façade which is the short end of a loading dock, has depicted a lamb.", that "The way in which X has illustrated the lamb testifies to an artistic work carried out with a certain amount of artistic and technical skill." then finally "According to the District Court's opinion, the beauty value of the cracked concrete façade - in purely objective terms - has increased through X's painting." so the 27-year old artist was acquitted by the court, which also ruled that the police had must return the spray cans they had confiscated. ... show more

Content warning: FediMeta, blocklists and authority
I was again asked about including an instance in my blocklists based solely on its associations. I explained why I didn’t do this in my documentation:
Finally, you could just do something else entirely. I never use “your blocklist is different from mine” as a block-reason; even “totally open federation” is never the sole reason for pleroma.envs.net suspending an instance. Suspending instances for not using my own blocklist feels wrong; it’d turn these lists into a source of authority and cross the line from moderation to cop behavior.
I’m providing a resource but I’m not enforcing its usage. That means not having a list of instances you must defederate from, lest you be defederated yourself. In other words: making a blocklist disqualifies me from using federation alone as a block-reason. I’m not trying to use my lists as a tool to build authority.
You might be comfortable with the idea, and I won’t stop you. This is why I can’t share that comfort. Instances that are really cozy with blatant Nazis n shit usually have other reasons to block. I cite those.
You’re welcome to use, e.g., “federates closely with a member of FediNuke” as a reason to block on your own instance if your members are cool with that. Maybe message another admin you’re friends with if they have similar policies. I’m not policing your own moderation policies.
Beyond that, I don’t condone globally making block recommendations solely on this basis.
Trust me: for the worst associations (e.g. NiceCrew, DetroitRiotCity, ClubCyberia, et al) there’s almost always a more clear-cut reason.
Content warning: re: FediMeta, blocklists and authority
To elaborate on that, here’s another path to the same conclusion:
The more people working together on a blocklist, the harder it crashes and burns when the infighting hits a tipping point.
I know some of you have argued that these projects should have many people on them collaborating on decision making.
I don’t do this because I’ve seen what happens when enough people work together on these things. Everybody inside and out gets hurt, slowly then suddenly.
Bias sources keep my lists in check, and I ask for advice out of band. But I’m not putting dozens of people in a room to argue about every decision until our therapists need therapists. This issue is too heated for that kind of collaboration to be sustainable.
Rather than divide power, we should avoid it. I can’t incentivize adoption of any of my lists by defederating based on federation policies. You won’t get blocked by me for not adopting them.
This change implements the desktop cube effect using QtQuick 3D. It's a much simpler version of the old desktop cube effect. You can rotate the cube and click...

![Despite having just 5.8% sales, over 38% of bug reports come from the Linux community
38% of my bug reports come from the Linux community
My game - ΔV: Rings of Saturn (shameless plug) - is out in Early Access for two years now, and as you can expect, there are bugs. But I did find that a disproportionally big amount of these bugs was reported by players using Linux to play. I started to investigate, and my findings did surprise me.
Let’s talk numbers.
Percentages are easy to talk about, but when I read just them, I always wonder - what is the sample size? Is it small enough for the percentage to be just noise? As of today, I sold a little over 12,000 units of ΔV in total. 700 of these units were bought by Linux players. That’s 5.8%. I got 1040 bug reports in total, out of which roughly 400 are made by Linux players. That’s one report per 11.5 users on average, and one report per 1.75 Linux players. That’s right, an average Linux player will get you 650% more bug reports.
A lot of extra work for just 5.8% of extra units, right?
Wrong. Bugs exist whenever you know about them, or not.
Do you know how many of these 400 bug reports were actually platform-specific? 3. Literally only 3 things were problems that came out just on Linux. The rest of them were affecting everyone - the thing is, the Linux community is exceptionally well trained in reporting bugs. That is just the open-source way. This 5.8% of players found 38% of all the bugs that affected everyone.
