Over the past few years I've written much of a #Fediverse system called kepi, in Python. I have largely abandoned the project because nobody expressed interested in helping, and because I don't have the expertise to write the web UI.

Boosts very much appreciated.

why did jurassic park have such a banger soundtrack. it didn’t need to. we all would have loved it anyway; it had dinosaurs

a fun thing I’ve started to do when I’m on my own: every time a piece of technology does something infuriating like interpret a stray gesture as a request to pop up a modal dialogue, I’ll yell NO in exactly the same tone as a disapproving toddler

I completely forgot I have a Mastodon app on my phone with an account and people I’m following and everything

if anyone would like to feel better about their own technical skill, it took me months of occasionally playing FFXI and thinking “I know this is a 20 year old game but it looks like it was rendered on an N64” before realizing today I’d set the game resolution lower than the window it was playing in

Duolingo (which I haven’t used in years) sent me an email in Japanese accepting a translation between Spanish and Italian.

a hypothetical person trying to talk to me about video games: so Epic…
me: Epic MegaGames?

them: well, anyway, their CEO Tim Sweeney —
me: oh, the guy who wrote ZZT

them: I guess? but then Cliff Bleszinski —
me: the creator of Dare to Dream, right, go on
