screenshot of twitter but there is a heavy overlay of a horse image covering the entire screen, at this point, you cant really see anything behind the horse

due to my horrible doomscrolling addiction, i have made a script to slowly fade in a horse over my entire browser over the course of a minute that you cannot remove unless you refresh the page making it so i cant use twitter for more than 2 minutes

haven't made a step sound yet so i'm using a clip of alucard saying "What?!" from castlevania symphony of the night with randomized pitch as a placeholder.

A woodburning of pixel art of Cif from Void Stranger.

Did a woodburning of Cif from #voidstranger - very happy with how this turned out! I think the pixel art style works really well with the burning. There’ll probably be more to come!

Classical billiards can compute We show that two-dimensional billiard systems are Turing complete by encoding their dynamics within the framework of Topological Kleene Field Theory. Billiards serve as idealized models of particle mo...

ok "reduction of [extremely fucked up] billiards to halt checker by way of Turing machine" is WORLD-CLASS academic shitposting

girls love it when I cleave one half of the arena and then turn and cleave the other half

remember we once lived

the time when I was most immersed in Joni Mitchell's music (1990-1995ish) was also a time when I wasn't very in touch with a lot of pain I carried but the pain was there, looking for a place to be felt, and I'd locate that place in Joni Mitchell records, specifically Blue & Court + Spark & The Hissing of Summer Lawns, and while there's certainly plenty of hurt in those records it's still kind of funny when I'll cue up "In France They Kiss on Main Street" and a body memory of beginning to give myself permission to feel something very difficult will ripple through me, and it's in a way delicious, luxuriant; and I think one error in listening is to attribute agency to the artist when this sort of connection is formed, artists are just playing in their sandboxes, but it's also nearly impossible as a listener to not holler in gratitude from the heart of this process, seeking a person or Person to whom one might express that profound gratitude, someone to whom we can say "thank you, what would I be without this," but there are two people to thank for this and it's harder to thank them than to enter into the easy recourse of icon worship, and sources vary on whether those two people are actually just one person but one of them is God and the other one is you.

Added the label a while ago because I'd forget about the deduplication and compression and think I was missing data.

the internet actually isn't about connecting us to one another, improving human communication, or enabling us to see and be seen. it's all about letting you get really esoteric with your hobbies

this is one of the most striking and agonizing things I've read. the tech industry, broadly, globally, is fucking cancerous.

who up at the recursive function

really like the bit of my work where I get to actually go and look at what's inside Big Important Software Projects that everyone's been taught to believe are inscrutable arcane magic and go "see, it's just programming, you can figure it out"

it's kinda weird that all the software i am expected to use for work are all written by distributed teams, go, python, postgres, linux, chrome, k8s etc

and despite being told "the best teams work in an office together" i don't know of any software i use that's actually written that way

I don't think "tummy hort" should be allowed to make you feel like you're Straight Up Literally Dying. Like your brain should really be saving that signal pathway for actual emergencies. "gut flora disliked the cheese" is not a legitimate reason to slam the Multiple Organ Failure break-glass button

i bounced off gtnh super super hard but i think it is probably the play if you want something with a quest book that is Designed To Take A While

yay google redesigned the clock app Again and now the alarms page isn't completely terrible (editing an alarm *finally* just opens a modal)

unfortunately they also redesigned the regular "clock" page and forgot to turn on tabular numbers. so the time jumps around every second 🫠
