I wrote a tool in rust that unpacks every file in PSO2 and converts all the textures to .png and it is so insanely fast I'm kind of scared of it

@revenant they really need you to install that background web server open to the internet for reasons

It's frankly unacceptable that 343i launched Halo: MCC on PC without an option to disable in-game text chat entirely, let alone an in-game report function to report racists in said text chat.

Game studios be like "hey guys, we got skins now! report function? what's that?"

And this has nothing to do with the abilities of the populace

Literacy has fallen since 1993

I found out today that only 16% of Americans can read at a high school level or above.

36% of them read at most at a 6th to 8th grade level. 34% of them read at a 4th to 5th grade level.

I am almost certain America's educational system is to blame here. The way we teach middle and high school is severely broken. The system has failed us.

@firescotch she's even hiding completely reasonable and not incendiary responses like this, jfc... twitter.com/camcavejohnson/sta

@firescotch "haha I'm blocking all the whiny white dudes" yeeeeah that's... hmmm.

re: tweet, why did I go over there god dammit 

@firescotch wow, this is an embarrassingly white take on her part... it's true that a lot of well known contemporary communist and anarchist writings are from white authors, but beyond the obvious candidates? who is she kidding with this? other white neolibs?

video creators: please add subtitles to your videos. autogenerated subtitles is not enough to serve everyone who needs them (though they're better than nothing)

It's wild to me how white developers can have like, 6 different gigs in the span of 7 years. That's extraordinary.

But then again, maybe it isnt.

It's easy for white devs to go from gig to gig b/c white-run companies will take a chance on them whether they suck or not.

Meanwhile I've met black people in tech who've been clutching the same gig for YEARS, b/c being out of work means searching for another job for-fucking-ever.
