Hahaha, of all the stolen things in the British Museum, they had to pick the ones that were probably hand delivered?

Time in the Danish Realm - Wikipedia

Ok, I looked it up, it's not that bad: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_in...

Ittoqqortoormiit joined the rest of Greenland in 2024, Danmarkshavn is a weather station with a permanent population of 6, and Pituffik (Thule) is for dumb US reasons.

I have... questions.

Like, I don't think it matters that much when you're that far north, but also, why make all those weird cutouts when it doesn't matter that much?

Oh, yeah that sounds familiar, haha

Ooof, yeah, I think I've been lucky that I was usually mentally worn out afterwards so I just didn't feel like going fast

User homoquartz writes: as long as you smile and nod, people are satisfied. it’s just to show that you are nice and there with good intentions. we’re small in a big world and have to rely on other people to be decent to us. so we do our little human dance to each other to say, “i’m not here to hurt you. here’s something we have in common, like the weather or sports or itchy sweaters, so we both know we’re on the same team. we both agree on a basic fact, like that it is rainy or that being itchy is uncomfortable, and this proves we can get along. i’m being light-hearted and non-threatening right now." Small talk isn't to get to know a person. It's just a greeting to affirm you're buddies in the universe. I am motivated by wanting the other person to know I am friendly, so I have gotten pretty decent at small tall when I used to hate it.

This Tumblr user summarizes something I've been feeling/doing lately. Against everything going on, it somehow feels helpful.

Hahaha, looks completely normal, I don't know what you're talking about.

(Totally understand the struggle, with the game I'm working on now I have the axles following the track and the train car sitting on top, I wish I recorded all of the bloopers trying to get that to work.)

It's important to be fully focused and alert while driving at full speed on the track. That's why we've made sure you can't get a full night of sleep beforehand!

Honestly I would go as far as saying we need a new country (or countries), but yeah, I think the idea that we can just tinker with the current system to fix it has been thoroughly disproven.

Because when you burn down a house and nobody ever rebuilds it, someone is still forced to live in the ashes

Our plane to Spain is in the air!

🙌🙌

Thank you so much to the countless people supporting us in every way and in particular all of the Rutgers students and faculty who have supported us every step of the way.

Steam Review: 👎 Not Recommended 0.3 hrs on record Posted: March 27 Nice game. Refunded for trans flag train. Keep gaming fun not political.

Hahaha, ooof, I've been there 🙃

Not going to lie, this one hits pretty fucking hard right now, just horrifying

US anti-fascism expert blocked from flying to Spain at airport Rutgers University professor who published book on antifa was informed at boarding gate that his trip was cancelled

An outspoken antifascist US-born citizen was stopped from leaving the US. This should terrify you.

(BTW, this is not to imply this is ok for non-citizens or naturalized citizens.)

Even then, I think the Supreme Court is illegitimate even according to his own definition. He's just in denial about where things are - an understandable reaction, to be fair, but one we need to get past.

For me, its position gets affected by observing it. Like, normally I don't really consider it to have any position at all, but now that I'm thinking about it, it's definitely A.

(Obviously it appears as a sexy apple costume though, come on)

Keanu Reeves gesturing no, text reads Save and exit game. Keanu gesturing acceptance, and text reads Save game, Save and exit game.

"anti-AI people should just learn more about it" motherfucker I know so much about it, that's why I'm anti-AI

Personally I would prefer the movement of A, but the one-handed interaction of B. Having both a one-handed and a two-handed interaction would be neat though, for when the character has to do something tougher

It's a wild defense on their part, because I can't imagine a stronger argument for halting their industry immediately.

"we might've made a new conscious thing" is a thought that can only be followed with "we can't let companies create and exploit these"

oh so we're in the "forum mod crashes out over petty nonsense" stage of things huh

That attracted the critical users that got the whole thing going. Personally I like the idea of the mass decentralized social network, but that already exists: Mastodon. It didn't get as much traction thanks to perceived complexity, and AT proto comes across as even more complex imo?

This really sums up (some of) my thoughts better than I can.

On top of that, it feels like they don't understand (or refuse to understand) what has been behind their success: having a social network that looks kind of like Twitter while the original was imploding.

Jay Graber Confuses the Gas and Brake Pedals As your new Head of Comms I advise you to please stop posting this shit.

I think Bluesky could still be saved. Won't be, but could. They should hire me as Head of Comms. I could fix her (Jay)

Yes! I'm a little biased though, that's (spoiler alert) the art style I'm going with for my next game.

application of moderator actions.

Ultimately though, I don't get the point of this conversation though? Like, why stand up for a tech CEO instead of listening to the people who are subject to all of this harassment?
