edging with the polycule, call that distrubuted denial of service

‘touch grass’ bro i don’t know if you’re aware but they have portable computers now. i’m clowning on your ass in a secluded glen by a rushing waterfall. a newborn fawn is nuzzling my hand while i quote dunk u

would be neat if there was a wayland equivalent to xorg, a simple compositor that implemented all the boilerplate and delegated all of the actual business logic of where and how windows should be drawn to a privileged client #linux #wayland

mmap(2) is cool can't fit a file in memory? no problem, the kernel will just pretend it's in there yeah sure technically accessing it can trigger page faults that block your thread for longer than you might expect but if you have a swapfile all memory can do that anyway #programming

When Americans put on the uniform, what matters is their ability to do the job. Being transgender has no bearing on their dedication to our nation or their commitment to their unit. Decisions like today's aren't just deeply concerning, they set our armed forces back.

just got done cramming a semester project into 12 hours and the cliche anime thing where a character gets a nosebleed after using their full power actually happened to me what does this mean #adhd

transitioning is wild the fuck do you mean i'm hot now? i don't have any experience to even begin to decide what to do about this information #transfem

broke: ban oauth at your company because users don't read the consent screen woke: force them to read the consent screen with a puzzle

how it feels to hide people's discord cosmetics that they paid for

Trans women ARE biologically women and no biased court can stop that basic fact from being true. Sex is a homeostatic property cluster containing an array of primary, secondary, and tertiary sexual characteristics. Trans people can and do change sex

disgraced social network titter adds "edit with gork" button, which applies a swastika-maximizing deepdream filter from 2015. it is exclusively used by exactly the kind of person you would expect. your lame friend still refuses to leave because they want to follow celebrities.

had a dream that NileRed uploaded a new video

there should be a breathalyzer ignition interlock for cortisol levels, some people cannot drive safely when angry and they insist on doing so anyway

i think every web developer should be given nothing more than a basic-ass dogshit laptop from 5 years ago with 8 gb of memory installed and onboard graphics

task avoidance is when you learn you have a new obligation and you can't make yourself work on it because you don't have enough neurotransmitters but your brain keeps playing the sonic drowning music louder and louder for the next month or so #adhd

storing food in your backpack is kinda like a gamble between "surprise snack in a few days" and "surprise disaster in a few months" #adhd

question: is it ok to answer 911 to scam calls or does that count as impersonating an officer of the law #legal

it would be really funny to make an android vpn that smuggles data by sending push notifications back and forth since those are usually allowed on airplane wifi

YOU GUYS.

(in a #ttrpg campaign where we were using self-made character art) A: *loads decent art of their character into our vtt* B: Oh that's actually really good! C: I didn't know you could draw like that! A: Thanks, but I actually used AI for it.

i find it very silly that web browsers have a "set as desktop background" button in context menus, i can't imagine people do that terribly often but it's a funny thing to be able to do in two clicks

libreoffice calc has gpu acceleration with opencl, matrix multiplication, and it can optimize a reward function, i could totally make a neural network with it #libreoffice

cool tip: you don't actually want steamos on desktop. the only Special Exclusive Feature of steamos is that valve guarantees support for it when running on the steam deck hardware. if you aren't using a steam deck you will be better served by another linux distribution. #steamos #linux

lua fans worry me, it's basically an esolang imo in other languages finding the length of a list is O(n) at worst for functional languages with linked lists. in lua you Just Can't Do That because there aren't lists, only hashmaps, and you don't know if there are noncontiguous keys #programming

leaked frame from the helldivers movie featuring chris pratt as the bile titan (cw horrible. terrible. i should not have made this) "it's a me, bile titan. that's not the voice, you'll have to wait to hear the voice." #helldivers2

if you are a "vibe coder" i just dont respect you as a dev. clean and simple. granted, you don't need to care that i don't respect you, its not like my opinion matters. but my opinion stands. either do coding yourself or don't do it at all.

oof ouch argh owie augh (taking damage over time from a headache)

if your users have something like totp or webauthn i think it's probably fine/better to wait until after they've passed 2fa to tell them whether they got their password right, then remember that they've passed 2fa if they have to put their password in again #cybersecurity

powerscaling is funny because there are so many characters that are completely beyond comparison saitama can sneeze jupiter's gases into orbit but what's he gonna do if doofenshmirtz shows up with a fix-my-hairline-inator

the 12-hour clock makes sense to me but i think it would be neat if the cycles were shifted 6 hours, so someone could describe their schedule as getting up at 2 in the day and going to bed at 4 in the night instead of describing it like 8 AM - 10 PM

pikachu’s mighty roar

me: in normal conversation brain: hey you should meow. like right now. as loud as you can me: ???

In Super Mario 64/DS, drowning overrides other death animations. As such, if the player character dies from fall damage while about to swim, he will appear to be so bad at swimming that he drowns immediately upon touching water.

there are several other definitions of vibe coding that are infinitely better than the one that ai bros are trying to proliferate

The @nytimes.com just discovered parallel computing.
