@mawr Yeah. It sure is.

@mawr Because the wireless is on one subnet and the wired is on another. Apparently that... matters? To a lot of stuff?

@confusedcharlot Because Autodesk, that's why. *sighs* Tons of websites too.

Granted, I'll grudgingly accept this over the thing Adobe did for Creative Suite where the software could only be authenticated on two systems at once... and if a system suddenly blew up, the only way to get that authentication slot back was to _call them on the phone._

An open letter to software developers. (micro-rant) 

Dear software developers,

If you work on a product that insists on requiring a networked login yet doesn't provide a way for the user to mark multiple IP addresses and/or systems as valid to remain logged in, good news! You have found the next feature that needs developing and everything else should stop until it's done.

If that's not your decision, find whose it is, and hire bouncers to make sure they have to enter their full password every time they try to open any door in their house, personal vehicle, or office.

Sincerely and with all love,
An Actual User of Software Who Is Tired of Logging In Yet Again Just Because They Brought Their Laptop into Another Room in ihe Same Damn House.

Do you feel old yet, that baby from the Nevermind album cover now looks exactly like the sort of person who’d play that album over and over

-, body, furry meta 

Ik this isn't healthy, but I feel resentment when I notice an artist only ever draws slim and "normal" body types, especially if they're an experienced artist who has a very refined personal art style

Even if the artist themselves haven't done anything wrong, it just bugs me

I don't intend to kinkshame by saying this ofc but: fat people exist outside of kink, outside of fatfur. I want to see art where fat people are allowed to exist and be people

@fluffy I lived on it for much of that time. It was the only thing with caffeine that didn't ramp me up to unreasonable levels then crash me after a few hours. And I loved the flavor! And, you know, the pretty cat on the can was a nice bonus.

one time i got all the way through character creation in a tabletop game with a bard who died years ago but channels the adoration from his fans as a form of prayer to retain his form and weave energy into devastating magic attacks

but then the DM noticed me writing the character name "spellvis" and i had to start over

robot/AI hot take (1) 

i don't think that fully humanoid simulacra, like Replicants, will ever be either fully realized or accepted by humans. robots that need to relate to humans might eventually have animated LED screens for faces, but never rubbery masks or vat-grown flesh. a century's worth of Hard and Soft SF has poisoned that well for good, and i think that's actually okay, for two reasons.

TIL about the The Tarot of the New Vision - the Rider-Waite deck but every card shows the perspective from the rear of the original card.

Needs more butts.

Furry is incredibly important to my identity, because it gives me a way to define myself that isn't impacted by the real-world prejudice I deal with. Nobody is going to strip-search me at an airport because I have 'tanuki-esque features.'

This is something that gets missed when discussing furry culture, but one of the main things that attracts people to it in my experience is the chance to set your own terms for how you want to be seen and treated for people who don't otherwise get that option.

@hystericempress How intentional is it that the mirroring color almost matches your jacket?
