covid19, donation links
Hey y’all, I personally am gonna be fine since Sbux is paying my wages at least until the 19th BUT I used to work at a local coffee shop in the Bay Area (one of the most expensive places to live in CA) that doesn’t have the luxury of billions of dollars in the bank, so if you can please help out my friends by donating or sharing these links, that would be amazing

My Increasingly Less-Brief Guide to Mastodon now has an easy-to-remember URL: http://www.guidetomastodon.com ! (Right now it just points to the Github page, but I'm planning on making it a proper website with, you know, styling and all that, at some point.)
If you wanna upscale images like Animal Crossing does this implements the algorithm it's most likely using: https://sourceforge.net/projects/xbrz/files/ScalerTest_1.1.zip
(Mac/ Windows/ Linux binaries)
There's also reference implementations for a number of emulators in the same Sourceforge, so that's cool

While you're in there please wishlist Frog Fractions: Game Of The Decade Edition on Steam! It helps convince our robot masters that people care about this game.

Also on Itch we've allocated some free "community copies" for anyone experiencing financial hardship. Grab one if you need one.
Here's how you do that if you want to set up your game the same way:
Glittermitten Grove is still 75% off on both Steam and Itch as part of the Don't Visit Your Grandparents sale.

so for a few days now I've been having issues with watch time not being tracked on YouTube videos i.e videos will just show as being started but no progress made. Not ideal.
Turns out YouTube has switched the API end point to this to youtube.com/api/stats/watchtime and the EasyPrivacy filter list in uBlock Origin was blocking that specific endpoint (why?)
Outer Wilds will be on Steam on June 18 https://youtu.be/2EnIpUkQ__M
Crossniq+ is 0,80€ on Steam so it's probably around a dollar in the US? I'm too lazy to check but it's a cool game with a really sweet aesthetic maybe check it out it's also on the Switch (US only for now) https://store.steampowered.com/app/1128180/CROSSNIQ/
Etsy shop launch, begpost, COVID-19, please boost
Hey everybody.
I told my manager I'm not coming in during the COVID-19 stay at home order, whether or not corporate thinks we're essential.
In the meantime, I'm setting up an Etsy shop to sell zines and hopefully support myself from here on out.
Each zine is $5, and I'm offering free shipping to the US. I plan on selling digital download-and-read PDFs soon as well. I've got two zines so far with more to come as the week goes on.
Any sale helps me out tremendously, thank you!

people saying “well we need to look after people, sure, but need to balance that with the economy” make me want to scream
if the economy can’t handle us taking care of the people, or comes *before* taking care of the people, the economy is bad and we should stop fucking doing it?
we need some kind of signifier for "this email is just a receipt" so I can filter them into a separate folder
