@KS@is.a.qute.dog i'm sorry though, i'll stop doing it--being harmful is the last thing i wanna do :T

is there a way you can think of that we can deal with the transphobia behind this though?

the people behind this are the types of people that would hurt trans peeps, and i really want to do something to resist it

sylveon defender 

@KS@is.a.qute.dog oof, i think i see where you're coming from, but your qualms in there kinda read like "not all men", which is a way a lot of people disagree with generalizations–because they know other things exist outside of them

you feel excluded because it seems like everyone is saying that every sylveon is trans, huh?

i know i can't change how you feel about the words, but i don't think anyone means to exclude enbys with this–actually, i had no idea that was even a possibility

sylveon defender 

@KS@is.a.qute.dog wait, am i being disrespectful to nb peeps somehow?

could you elaborate?

sylveon defender 

@noiob honestly, i wouldn't be too surprised

sylveon defender 

@noiob oh, me too! all three times in fact

i have no idea what's up with that ^^'

sylveon defender 

i can't seem to get sylveon defender to add me to their blocklist. hopefully third time's the charm!

getting on a blocklist is pretty high on the list of things i'd never thought i'd hope for, but people who subscribe to something like that are the types of people who would hurt my friends, and i don't want them to ever be able to enjoy the things i make

spam botnet update 

@Xkeeper it's true

i got this about an hour ago on freenode

Sylveon defender 

@noiob i haven't made it yet, but maybe soon!

i don't want transphobes to be able to enjoy the things i make

@noiob huh!

it seems like that would solve the problem of coop suddenly making the game Very Easy

@noiob oh my gosh yes, for such limited hardware, the visuals were just stunning!

(i never played 2 though, so maybe i should pick it up sometime!)

@raccoon oh, also, byebug isn't actually necessary for the "binding.pry" thing--it just adds commands like "step", "next" and so on so you can run code line by line

it also gives you "up" and "down" to inspect the thing that called that function

all in all, the idea behind suggesting these things is to make it easy to explore the language, since you can experiment and play around in pretty compelling ways like this

@raccoon oh! something that will help a lot with ruby:

gem install pry pry-doc pry-byebug

with pry you can navigate namespaces like directory structures. so, literally typing "ls" to see the things that are defined, and "cd"-ing into them

with pry-doc, you can pull up documentation for the things you see with ls by typing "? <thing>"

with pry-byebug, if you "require 'pry'" in a file and put "binding.pry" somewhere, it drops you to a debugger at that line, and you can do the other pry things

@noiob it played really nicely on the 3ds too!

i actually liked that game a lot!

systemd hot take 

@codl i like it too actually

"journalctl -f" is so much nicer than "tail -fn0 /var/log/* /var/log/*/*" for getting an overview of everything happening on the system

it also has really nice startup information with "systemd-analyze critical-chain"

i just don't like the default some systems have where the default log location is on tmpfs

i guess i got a recent appreciation for it because of heidisql and fl studio?

they kinda solidified that delphi can actually do *real* things, and wasn't some nightmare to maintain despite the fact that you make interfaces like if it were visual basic

it's funny how having *any* association with vb instantly makes me want to run in the opposite direction

Show thread

i feel oddly compelled to write something in delphi

i don't even know pascal

digging through my old photos 

@codl awww, they're pretty cute!!

you're definitely better than me at traditional drawing

digging through my old photos 

@codl i loved sunkern in super mystery dungeon!

I wanna offer a game for GDQx but 

@karma oh, don't worry! runs are almost always really fun to watch, even if they have quirks in them and not everything goes perfectly

besides, if you think you'll regret passing up the opportunity if you don't try, you should totally do it!

being early on your trans path might be a little tricky though, since that could mean some dysphoria--but know that no matter how early on you are, you are valid!

you don't need to put your life on hold--live as you like!
