Laughs in Debian

I have played the demo for your game, and while I don’t know if you can fight this, you’ll deffo be getting at least one sale!

No idea why the downvotes are hitting this so hard.

So I have had other problems with Proton, but they are handling this a hell of a lot better than GOG did.

I was the last generation at my school system to even have the options of a home ec class. It is a tragedy.

Bernadette Banner also has many videos on doing this with simple hand sewing equipment, if you aren’t inclined to get a new machine!

I am also always willing to share what information I have about Darning and Clothing repair if needed… but I am just some person on the internet…

I sewed a patch into my pants today instead of buying new ones!

This is the mindset that keeps the world going!

The hacker mindset exists beyond information technology.

GOG uses GenAI for marketing.

I always knew these as Pubnixes which I think is just an older word for Tildeverse

Dr. Kaczyinski wrote a paper about this.

This is them using the word terrorists. domestic terrorism laws in the US are based on ideological extremism.

I am in this picture and I do not like it.

Populist Fascism playbook. This gets them votes from single issue voters that would normally be outside their voter base.

“He might be a terrible person, but he’s fighting the fight for {Privacy, against big tech, etc.}”

This post makes many good points but this also reeks of the “Free Speech” argument.

Redacting the political ideology does nothing to protect the instance … it only hides the cause of the ban.

What does the person who had this run against them feel afraid to express?

To clarify: LLMs have no place at all in moderation. They are poorly adjusted linguistic slot machines that do not do a good enough, reliable enough, or repeatable job for this tasks. Especially given the concern about untrained and unsupervised human moderators.

So it isn’t exactly the same as what I was planning, but there used to be a BannerLink maintained by WSMZ (https://hbaguette.neocities.org/) that isn’t maintained anymore.

I have started maintaining that here: https://j4yc33.neocities.org/stuff/BannerAds

If you have a small website and want to explore more, there are about 17 sites on it right now, and hopefully I will be able to add more.

As time goes on, I might be able to use this database of self-submitted websites to create a sort of small web stumbleupon.

Marginalia search has a good explore button for random sites! I have thought about starting a Stumbleupon like tool, but I haven’t got around to it yet.

Stumbleupon was good, partially, because people submitted sites. That requires accounts and moderation though, and getting a community together is difficult.

I think if I were to spend the time analyzing my conversations over the last 6 months I would probably find I spend a lot of time having conversations about why people should explicitly never use a Windows OS.
