It’s not stopping the far-right, don’t let it stop you!

we’re in the middle of a hostile government takeover

i wanna talk about it but I’d be late for work

and if you’re saying ‘wait a minute, who we have to stop this?’

we had one but you didn’t want that lady in office

Hell yes that was an invigorating read! Those people following ICE agents around are HEROES. This also reminded me to get a megaphone.

I do appreciate him speed running his downfall for us. It’s a few years overdue but I’ll take it.

I’m so happy to get the slightest bit of good news lately. How awesome would it be if this unchecked rampant corruption and greed led to significant reforms for democracy and an era of consequences and litigation against the billionaires.

How awesome would it be if this was the collapse of capitalism in the utopia sense, as opposed to the ‘end of civilizatiom’ sense. Maybe? :)

After reading that I thought the ‘HDMI Forum’ was a literal internet forum of nerds who invented HDMI and didn’t want to make it open source for anyone. lol.

Ugh this takes me back to my electrician days: trying to splice these fuckers in a dark, hot attic, with only a blue-hued headlamp to help you piece out what color everything actually was. Good times.

Sex with a hella sexy robot? Nice.

Using a hella sexy robot to fill the emptiness of no intimacy or authentic mutual connection? Not nice.

For some reason sex with a robot doesn’t feel gross to me — until they start using it to fill a hole (hehe)

I will never forgive Microsoft for just straight up deleting everyone’s (mine) MineCraft purchases and accounts, and then having the gall to tell us to buy it again. It’s still in my Microsoft Store purchase history, for Christ’s sake.

I’d sooner buy Skyrim 4 more times than buy back what was stolen from me.

Seems intelligent and I’ve enjoyed some of his videos. I don’t know much about him other than he’s a bit… intense? and he’s sparked controversy with some people. I looove the FUTO keyboard app he’s associated with. It’s the best TTS keyboard I’ve found, and I refuse to use the Google/Samsung/etc equivalents

Drug addiction. Its not necessarily easy to fix, but we know how to treat it and take care of our vulnerable, we just don’t: social workers, public services, shelters, safe drug sites with drug counselors. We’ve become so numb to the mass suffering on a societal and individual level.

Personal anedcote, a year ago, a man was dying of an OD next to our Tim Horton’s drive thru, splayed out in the middle of the road, and the dozens of people driving by cared more about getting their coffee and getting to work than to even call an ambulance. I went to the pharmacy down the road and got a narcan kit and administered it, but Jesus Christ I lost a lot of trust and faith in my fellow man that day. Not enough people care; even people I love and respect say disgusting things about homeless people.

Cheers I’ll skibidi to that

General Brown was abruptly dismissed as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on February 21, 2025 by President Donald Trump. Trump subsequently announced that Brown would be replaced with John D. Caine, who did not meet the legal prerequisites for the position, and who, according to Trump, had pledged “I love you, sir. I think you’re great, sir. I’ll kill for you, sir.”, while wearing a MAGA hat.

What the hell is Canada supposed to do if Americans roll up on the borders. What the hell can the Canadian military — or the American people for that matter — do if they forced Canada to capitulate or face a nuclear threat? That might be an alarmist what-if… but is it, really?

On an unrelated note, that thumbnail image looks fairly convincingly like pixel art until you zoom into it. Conversely, the pixel art people are making with comfyUI and LORAs (locally) is insane. I messed around with it and you can generate 2d and 3d game assets of anything you can think of.

don’t

The cognitive dissonance over at r/conservative is showing cracks over this one. Same with the “dictator” comments about Zelensky. You can make MAGATs believe a lot of things, but telling them that, actually, Putin is the good guy, and Nazis are pretty cool, is a hard sell.

I have a novice coding question using the mouse tracking as an example: Is it possible to intercept and replace mouse tracking data with generic inputs? For example, could you implement an overlay that blocks mouse interactions, and instead of physically clicking on elements, send a direct packet to the application to simulate selecting those elements?

Jokes aside, keep in mind that the idea of fingerprinting is that your computer’s configuration is as unique as a fingerprint (e.g., your monitor is x resolution, you are on this operating system, you are using these following extensions in this browser, you have these fonts on your system).

Setting your user agent to something super unique is basically shining a spotlight on yourself.

I recommend this user agent switcher extension (firefox)
