People talk about Bluesky users "being in a bubble" like it's a bad thing but the more I think about it the more I kinda like it? A protective bubble I could deploy for me and my friends sounds great. I wouldn't want to be in it all the time though, maybe if it had a 10 second cooldown and 650 HP?

Occasional reminder that if you believe anything coming out of Kiwifarms, especially about a trans person, you are being a useful idiot for a bunch of vile hateful stalkers who have zero qualms about lying when it comes to those they perceive as enemies, and they consider all trans people enemies

all is not lost though, it turns out you can get average people to enjoy arcade design if you call it a roguelike

1ccs are cool, but americans are hardwired to assume that everything that asks for money is out to scam them (they're usually right) so it's no surprise that they don't take games with a blatant incentive to kick you off the cab in good faith.

Painful review of the Capcom Beat 'Em Up Bundle on Steam that really highlights how destructive the continue system was to people's perception of arcade games. The beat 'em ups mentioned play wildly different from one another if you're actually trying to survive on 1 credit.

Yarzons are known for their long spindly legs. They immobilize their prey by spraying its joints with corrosive bile, penetrating the victims head, and sucking out the brain via sharp feeding tubes.

I'm glad the way people perceive eroge has evolved. Eight years ago when I brought Koihime to locals the main reaction was "Eww that's a HENTAI GAME". Last night someone jokingly asked me if Rance was in the game. Progress.

There was a fucking hole in our planet’s *atmosphere* Like a legit, no joke, “this will unravel our entire ecosystem” hole in the world, and then we fixed it by working together across national and political lines As a species we decided, “we will survive” Let’s do that some more

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

This article on The House in Fata Morgana is a front for an existential crisis over a defunct history park, which in itself is a front for an article on how incredible The House in Fata Morgana is. Thank you so much to @mothership.blog for letting me write this! It was a really great experience.

I've seen a few people recently point out this Skinner Box behavior to current LLMs. And since a little bit of unreliability increases engagement I wonder if any LLM company operating under capitalist incentives would ever be incentivized to push errors as low as possible on a public-facing model.

I'm sure it's good that over the past several days I have seen multiple vibecoding people say their individual versions of "yeah this is like playing a slot machine for me and I find it hard to stop and I love that actually"

It always comes back to this for me; if AI was so good, such a disclosure would be a selling point. If AI was everything these slop jockeys said it was, they should be proud to let people know their game was AI made. But the proof is in the pudding, and they can't stand that people don't want it.

One step forward, two steps back seems to be the Bluesky ethos for new features, at least when it comes to anything involving adult content. Just constant nonsense with it

if you’re issuing a 10.0 CVE at midnight you HAVE to give it a cool name. a simple identifier isn’t going to cut it. you have to call it BLOODMURDER

This is bad enough that if you run anything public-facing with PHP, you should shut it down until you can patch PHP. This is not a drill, do it now. Seriously.

nightshade →eth0:2026@nightshade.technology

details leaked. this vulnerability is a full unauthenticated unconditional remote code execution exploit against any service running on a PHP version from 5.4 until latest yeah if anything deserves CVSS 11, this is it. this is CATACLYSMICALLY bad.

Been seeing more trans folks use TERF talking points like saying “trans women need to unlearn male socialization” or “while it’s not a slur, we should be understanding why some women would be offended by the word cis because young tumblr transes use it as an insult and ruined it.” Kinda fucked.

petzku reposted

It’s always amusing that cis people still somehow think estrogen makes your voice more feminine and will happily tell other cis people that it does. It doesn’t, at all, by the way. We trans women gotta put work into voice training.
