just thinking about how the following is all pretty much inevitable unless legislation gets ahead of it:
- taxi app companies are gonna move to autonomous vehicles
- those taxis will only respond to hails via their app
- when not in use they'll go hide somewhere and recharge their batteries
- some nonzero percent of them are gonna corrupt their onboard memory and not be able to authenticate their identity the app
- these will be the feral taxis, stealing electricity and driving around empty in neighborhoods they remember

I'm working on a mod for #dwarffortress that adds some limited "co-op mode" support: folks watching my Twitch stream will be able to "possess" a dwarf and take some control of them, see their innermost thoughts and feelings, and decide their role in the fortress.

If that sounds like fun to you, I'm going to be trying it out for the first time on Wednesday, 6.30pm PST! Follow me on Twitch to get a notification: https://twitch.tv/nornagon

@relsqui foxes!

Is there anyone here who is a trans adult but who hasn't transitioned for whatever reason - safety, money, cultural, family? I'd like to talk to another person in this position, because it feels like they're as rare as hen's teeth.

Please boost this if you wish, because I'm not sure I have any followers in this position.

everyone involved in making that movie should work in a psychiatric hospital for a year and then see if they'd make the same choices

pro roguelike trick: if you spend an hour thinking of a good name for your character, they will die instantly

if you name your character some stupid shit like "honk bongledink" that will absolutely be the one you win with, etched into the high score list forever

i cannot control myself

"woo the internet is dying, now we gotta make a new one just for techies and nerds just like it was in the 90s" is a bad take.

the internet and whatever comes after it needs to be accessible.

"normal" people aren't killing the open web, capitalism is.

writing tip: no writing tip will ever cover every situation. use adverbs. fuck up grammar. fuck up spelling. do whatever you can to get your soul on paper

I told you it was a work in frogress.

(going to get as much mileage as I can from that pun).

passed a lady wheeling a cart full of pot plants down the footpath and stopped myself halfway through going "oh!! hello!" at the plants like they were an exciteable friendly dog
