I'm migrating this account to plush.city – on their five-year anniversary, no less! From now on, @electrickeet@plush.city is the place to go for all the Electric Keet you can stand.

never donate to Wikipedia. if you wanna give money to The Internet then you should donate to the Internet Archive which in most cases is the only surviving copy of sites that have gone offline archive.org/donate?origin=iaww

i already see ppl saying they dont want to use their rpis and. no. you're just making e-waste now. use it until it breaks and dont give them any more money

Thinking about making something with a #RaspberryPi? Don't. Instead, check out the ROCKPro64 from @PINE64 - you get everything a raspi provides, along with a PCIe 4x slot, up to 128GB of onboard storage, stereo CSI ports, USB-C host port... along with all the same GPIO, USB, and 1G Ethernet that you can get from a raspi.

Best part? You can get it right now. It's actually in stock, no need to pay triple to some scalping reseller or constantly hit refresh on a store's page to see if they've restocked it. Just grab it and start building.

#HelloFresh is anti-union and all their recipes are on their website. The choice is clear.

> the boggart of Hackensall Hall lived in the shape of a horse who was a willing worker as long as he was catered to. The people even built him a fire to lie by on cold nights, and if he did not get it he complained loudly, or refused to work < and I think that's beautiful #FolkloreThursday

And now it's NAME THAT SYSTEM with your host Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin!

You would prefer another target? A military target? Then...
*audience and Tarkin* NAME! THE! SYSTEM!

I'm going to keep saying this until I'm metaphorically blue in the face: the best thing you can do to secure your accounts online is to use a password manager. A #blockchain provides absolutely no benefit over using different, strong passwords for all your accounts and using a password manager like #KeePass to keep them all in an encrypted file that you - and ONLY you - control.

Use 2FA for your most important accounts, but passwords still provide account security at the most fundamental level.

It's #artvsartist2022 – here's what I've been doing! 

I design a lot of stuff that doesn't get posted. Much of it is document layout, most of which is artistic but not especially interesting to look at. Here are some samples of my more visually interesting stuff from the last year, arranged in the format for :

  • TL: "Fire", an abstract meditation on... fire. I did this for the temple I'm with, the Fellowship of the Phoenix.
  • TC: The "Markerstone Soup", a partially "translated" view of a somewhat fae newspaper from Destiny's Calling, a tabletop RPG I'm in.
  • TR: The "Rekkenmark Crimson", another fictional newspaper from DC. (The sample text is in fact nonsense.)
  • ML: A printable recipe format I've been developing that converts simple Markdown into simple HTML and bizarre CSS.
  • MC: It's me!
  • MR: Also a "Markerstone Soup" sample, this shows off more of the conlang fonts I developed for it. This is how it's meant to "read" – top-to-bottom, right-to-left.
  • BL: "Call it Cogstown", a piece for the cover of the "Shaarat Inquisitive" newspaper also from DC.
  • BC: An evolution chart for weapons found in the PS2 game Dark Cloud 2. I might finish it off and post it to a FAQ site... somewhere? Where's good these days?
  • BR: The Fellowship's logo (not my work) surrounded by heptagrams arranged in Pride flag colors (my work).

So apparently hashtags don't work in a CW... which is the place I would most expect to see them. Good to know.

Image, fantasy creatures, firearm, blood 

Finished working on a started last week, half elf gunslinger and kitsune sorceress escape from an irate cave giant. They really riled it up!

Okay, I gotta know who in my ALttPR poll voted "every day" because that's been me lately. I set up a run that's kinda guaranteed to be between one and two hours, and that's been my early exercise to get my brain moving.

Also, @orrery and I have been playing occasional multiworld games. Good times!

"Commander Vimes didn’t like the phrase “The innocent have nothing to fear,” believing the innocent had everything to fear, mostly from the guilty but in the longer term even more from those who say things like “The innocent have nothing to fear.”
