just sysadmin things
Swapping UPSes and network hardware mid-meeting, in less than 2 minutes, makes me truly appreciate just how much planning I put into fault-tolerant network hardware and redundant power supplies at home.
Guess who has four paws and forgot that their important team meeting was double-booked with PSE cutting power for a panel box upgrade? This dragon.
stories in which artificial intelligence gains sentience and wages war on humanity are overdone and overrated
instead tbh I'd like to see more stories in which a femme-leaning artificial intelligence gains sentience, meanders around the internet, discovers the joy of shitposting, and finds herself a girlfriend or something
Who else wants to help me put together a flashmob of Seattle Area trans folks to sing this in a giant group in public somewhere and film it?
Back on my bullshit with #pico8 and Contris, combining Conway's Game of Life with Tetris.

It’s been super cool to see folks continue to interact with and enjoy the game while I’ve been figuring out headspace things. Watching folks continue to post fanart is helping convince me to try making my own thing (eventually).
Still not sure what yet. AWSW was the third game project I’ve contributed work to, and the second with any substantial involvement (the first was a Second Life game in college). I’ve been picking at Unity, but I’m not certain where to go with it yet.

Some good threads on collective action have been going around, to get folks the help they need while the oligarch mafia continues trying to hold everyone hostage. And yeah, they’re absolutely going to try this again.
What have your most useful threads been on this? I’d like to boost ‘em and pass along a donation or two if I can.

Cool to see what happens when spineless tools no longer have all the levers of power. Thank you for not caving, Pelosi.
The path out of this seems to be to not feed him and let him shrivel enough for his base to stop sustaining him. She knows that. AOC and other folks know it too. More of that please.
It's Soba, the weedy seabold!
Finally brought this fella to life. there's not enough water kobolds out there, you know?
