My voice is mostly-back, but I still feel like butts.
With luck, I'll be able to sneak in a stream this weekend โค๏ธ

in the meantime, I recommend checking out the #BlackVoicesInGaming Livestream, which is starting in ~30 min from now (time of posting)

Maryland, New Mexico Become Latest Blue States to Ban Local Contracts with ICE - Bolts Governors Lujan Grisham and Moore signed laws barring local sheriffs and police from partnering with ICEโ€™s 287(g) program, joining a string of ten states with similar prohibitions.

NEW: Major, BFD action by blue states standing up to ICE.

Maryland, on Tuesday, banned local law enforcement from being part of ICE's notorious 287(g) program.ย 

That automatically forces *9* sheriffs out of their ICE contract!

And New Mexico did the same last week:

I never felt worthy of being part of the #LegacyOfKain, but after the announcement of the 2d game I feel different. Let this be a lesson to not self sabotage and prepare for your wildest dreams. As things are I only have this forever WIP of Kain

Background work for Barkley2, canceled project where I met @frankiepixel.bsky.social. Wanted to make one big post with all the bgs and subtle animation but that's a no go. Check thread for subtle animation I guess?

Yeah... the inconsistent outline weights are also sus.

It would help if they replied to our questions; the radio silence fills me with unease.

If they don't answer questions before their user base explodes, I expect customer/user support will be even more scarce after a wave of adopters.

Hm, it looks like it's human-made stuff, just very, very polished like tech ads and sites from before 2020.

before hopping on a new platform, i wanna check: was any LLM/genAi/Agent involved, in any way, in the creation of this program?

(Not old school type of ai or what have you; the current capitalist hellscape techbro edition is the one I'm asking about)

yeah, algorithm-slop-bots like Claude spit out code with so many privacy and security loopholes; even if I didn't have moral objections to LLMs, I still wouldn't use anything made by the plagiarism-bots.

An airline security card but instead of oxygen masks, it's squid. Just roll with it.

Secure your own squid first before helping others.
