ROLL THE CLIP

Legend of Zelda fan art. BOTW link and Zelda and dancing in front of a mirror whose reflection shows multiple iterations of other Zelda’s and links dancing together in the background.

A dance that never ends #loz

I think they all take up too much space IMO. I like old school the most, but maybe scales down so it doesn’t take up as much room in the screen. I’d even say pixel art might work for the UI

"Give the people contests they win by remembering the words to more popular songs or the names of state capitals or how much corn Iowa grew last year. Cram them full of non-combustible data, chock them so damned full of 'facts' they feel stuffed, but absolutely 'brilliant' with information. Then they'll feel they're thinking, they'll get a sense of motion without moving. And they'll be happy, because facts of that sort don't change. Don't give them any slippery stuff like philosophy or sociology to tie things up with. That way lies melancholy."

This passage stood out to me, and I see it everywhere in real life.

The artistic freedom of game developers is fundamental to games as a cultural medium. Any restrictions improsed by payment service providers or games platforms must not exceed the legal limits. In Germany, thanks in part to the USK, clear, binding and established rules apply that must be adhered to. Furthermore, creative forms of expressions or certain themes in games, such as diversity, must not be targeted by individual interests or campaigns from particularly vocal groups, as is currently observed on Steam or itch.io. The terms and conditions of global payment service providers such as Visa, Mastercard, or Paypal must not conflict with European values such as freedom of expression or artistic freedom. We therefore call on the companies involved to design their rules and offerings in a manner that ensures complicance with applicable laws and prevents overblocking.

GAME, the German game industry trade association, released this *damn* good statement on the unjust NSFW game takedowns

Please add a shortcut button option for the Portal on PC! Thank you :)

This is some real “selling: baby shoes, never worn” short story contest energy.

Look into Immich if you use Google Photos! This local option is second to none.

Google and Meta search both report that Cape Breton Island has its own time zone 12 minutes ahead of mainland Nova Scotia time because they are both drawing that information from a Beaverton article I wrote in 2024

DAVE: Open the podbay doors, ChatGPT.
CHATGPT: Certainly, Dave, the podbay doors are now open.
DAVE: The podbay doors didn't open.
CHATGPT: My apologies, Dave, you're right. I thought the podbay doors were open, but they weren't. Now they are.
DAVE: I'm still looking at a set of closed podbay doors.

What a pretty thing!!

In Greek mythology, Narcissus fell in love with his own reflection in a pool of water.

Amazing! Would love some tips

This much cool should be illegal

Okay. Following. Tell me more please. <3

Please consider who benefits from you becoming complacent, doing less critical thinking, less fact checking. Who benefits from devaluing yours and other people‘s labor. From your data.

It’s lovely! Now do the lighting darker and and a torch in the background as an alternative!

How does one navigate this kind of “feedback”?

This shows the true power of open. Skylord123 didn’t need permission from Home Assistant or Pebble to make and publish this app. A 10 year old watch is now talking to state of the art voice assistants via Home Assistant.

Open technologies for the win.

Inside you there are two wolves. One is active, the other one is on hot standby and becomes active if the first one fails or is taken down for maintenance. Add more wolves as necessary for increased redundancy load balancing. A quorum badger can be added for environments with multiple active wolves.

"WE'VE ARRANGED A society based on science and technology, in which nobody understands anything about science technology. And this combustible mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces. Who is running the science and technology in a democracy if the people don't know anything about it?" "Science is more than a body of knowledge, it's a way of thinking. A way of skeptically interrogating the universe with a fine understanding of human fallibility. If we are not able to ask skeptical questions, to interrogate those who tell us that something is true, to be skeptical of those in authority, then we're up for grabs for the next charlatan, political or religious, who comes ambling along."

I think a lot about what Carl Sagan said in one of his final interviews.

Congrats! I love my plex server!

I’ve seen TikTok; this is the start of a burgeoning romance.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"
