Happy pride folks I'm still fleshing out the entries, but here's a list of over 200 retro games (pre-2010) which were made by trans people or which had trans people on the dev team. We have always been here. dotmaetrix.neocities.org/classictrans...

learning IWBTG was made by a genderfluid person was a surprise to me too, don't worry

This past semester was the most stressful of my academic career. I had 180 students and about half cheated at some point in the semester They submit weekly reflections where the questions are opinion-based, graded only on effort, don't care about grammar SO MANY students submitted ChatGPT essays

Preaching to the dwindling choir here but research has taken a major hit globally. Other countries won't benefit as they can't & won't ever make up for the loss of historic US investment. We haven't just shot ourselves in the foot but self-amputated in the service of economic power of a few.

a lot of this is being driven by the perception that LLM-based AI is a final technology and the dawn of AGI will create the “genius in a data center” and fully automate scientific discovery. i wish i was making this up

"you bring this up every few months" Because it haunts me! Who watches YouTube and decides they should get a mobile radar, let alone this model, from an ad there ????

Remember this pride month just because your ace friends haven't shot down five enemy fighters doesn't mean they're not valid.

happy anniversary to one of my favourite stories

The Flyer. 1/4

Most people who think the government should be run like a business can’t even run their business like a business

i let my son punch me in the head and i tell him the day you can kill me in one blow is the day you officially become a Teen

He won't, but he should.

I've used a paper map to navigate as recently as 2018, so

i’ve been thinking about this passage all day, because it suggests that musk legitimately does not understand how long a billion years is. it’s possible that he gets this is a stupid thing to be worried about and thinks you and i are too dim to understand that, but i kinda think he might be sincere

I know this is stupid but I’m so angry that Dems are sticking with this corny ass toothless TACO shit that I do not think bothers a single right winger let alone Trump himself

ICE dressed up like utility workers who offer "free estimates" if invited inside. Neighbor recorded the ICE goons and intervened, just before a young boy let them into his home. Tucson Electric Power was not told ICE agents would be impersonating their utility workers as part of the ICE raid.

Alex Jones, who spent years ranting about shadowy government mass surveillance technology, is now stanning for Palantir

Spanish renaissance inspired lady knight:

Lee Jae-myung, the South Korean politician who climbed the fence of the parliament to get inside and vote against martial law, has been elected president. Pretty cooool

They're literally doing the meme

I mean, the thing to keep in mind here is that Democrats think Trump tanking the economy with the tariffs would help them in the midterms.

pastor [delivering eulogy]: and it is with heavy hearts that we say farewell to our beloved sister Ethel, who goes now to join our heavenly father’s kingdom, a far cry from the fun of Royal Kingdom: the new puzzle game where players build kingdoms by completing tasks.

So does Musk or Trump become part of the resistance when the former gets kicked out?

This makes me laugh every time. I will not explain myself!

A bizarre question to press in any election, much less a mayoral race. But it fits with the whole piece in which Mamdani is painted as some wild fringe figure and Cuomo as the returning king.

We need a Joe Biden of the left

well, he died doing what he loved, i guess

Docked Mode is when you slide your Switch under the protective foreskin of another Switch

I wonder what made him say that

I've seen folks talk about how "in four years" they'll be able to get back to their planned projects and I really don't think that's going to work out. People & projects losing funding now will not be able to hit pause and come back once funding is restored. Hard-won progress & capacity will be lost

We are now living in a time when the weather reporter is the best journalist on the evening news, here explaining how Trump's cuts to science are jeopardizing lives in hurricane season:
