Anyway, I have a cyber.space account. Same username. Just saying.
An exchange on the online bird web site has reminded me:
I really find the ideological opposition to limitations on use of open source software to be odious and shortsighted.
Like, if I thought for a second that my software would be used to kill people, I would put a usage limitation on the license so fast you'd need a high-speed camera to see it. And I would not give two shits if that was not ideologically acceptable to open source advocates.
Feature I wish a lot more single-player games would have:
PAUSABLE. FUCKING. CUTSCENES.
This detailed takedown of Cinema Sins is something I didn't know I needed in my life, but I'm endlessly grateful that it exists: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ti3chBx2Pc&list=PLB8NXe_on1cV3bJvw_FA1FX-FI7PGZnV_

There's this seafood place that has a "rice bowl" takeout thing attached to it and I can't give it up because they basically serve tuna bibimbap even though they're very careful to never call it that. Like, I'm kind of shocked they actually list "kim chi" as an ingredient rather than "fermented cabbage", but still.
Hmm, SOMA is $7.50 on GoG right now. Should I pick it up? I'd probably play it with that horribly-named "wuss mode" mod.

By the way, while I'm looking for a citation for my contribution to the previous political discussion --
The full text of On Revolution by Hannah Arendt is on the Internet Archive at https://archive.org/stream/OnRevolution/ArendtOn-revolution_djvu.txt
It's not pretty to read without a djvu viewer, but it's all there and I highly recommend anyone interested in revolution politics or insurgency warfare give it a read.
Hey so, there's been a bit of a kerfuffle with Patreon lately after a terms of service change that threatens all sex workers
There's now an open letter to Patreon to please not do that http://www.openlettertopatreon.com/
The idea of folks losing their livelihood overnight for reasons I cannot see as justified is terrifying, and there's no Patreon alternative either.
Be the person in the fallout shelter smugly reminding everyone that electoral politics can't change anything that you want to see in the world.
The best 30 Rock joke is when Jack talks about meeting Jaleel White: "Incredibly charismatic. He makes Stefan Urquelle look like Steve Urkel."
Worst thing as a cyclist: when cars pretend like you don't exist
Second worst thing as a cyclist: when cars block traffic for no reason to try to wave you through even though it'd be safer if they just followed the rules of the road
I should finish my HL2 replay some time, but I left it off at the bit in Nova Prospekt with the turrets and bleh.
Mastodon users, new and old:
You can add a caption, or alt-text, to images you toot!
These captions make your toots more accessible, by giving people who can't see the image a description of what's in the image.
Just hover over the image over you attach it and type a description in the spot that says "Describe for the visually impaired" before you hit the TOOT! button.
Please also encourage Mastodon app authors to add caption functionality. And please boost. Thanks!
We need a group of like-minded and socially aware marginalized types of people to create something like a Patreon alternative that isn't trying to turn you into a small corporation, or kneecap you for doing NSFW content
I kinda don't like that this is my only option if I want to have some kind of monthly income
In other news, Patreon moves to prohibit the sale of NSFW webcam sessions and "movies" (i.e. prerecorded videos)
