This comes across as a cyberpunk-aesthetic 8k (six lanes + 2 gear) rhythm game with racing elements to it, such as medals for attaining a set amount of EX points (a.k.a. notes hit), as well as utilizing the gyroscope feature to drift across tracks of various difficulties—essential for those using physical controllers....

"Only a tiny part of written text is printed on paper, so the What You See is What You Get (WYSIWYG) approach does not make much sense in the digital age. Plain text uses the What You See Is What You Mean (WYSIWYM) approach. "
And, as an aside, one the most underrated features of #evilmode in #Emacs is that there is a complete (almost?) implementation of #ex under the hood, accessible via the : key binding (as in #vi).
And the combination of Emacs, evil mode, and #mastodonel is unbeatable for interacting with the #fediverse. 🙃
#SocialMedia#Twitter#Enshittification: "The default state for a social media platform is to deliver posts from accounts to their followers. Interfering with End-To-End costs more than delivering the messages users want to have. Likewise, a Right To Exit is a solved problem, built into the open Mastodon protocol, itself built atop the open ActivityPub standard.
It's not just Twitter. Every platform is consuming itself in an orgy of enshittification. This is the Great Enshittening, a moment of universal, end-stage platform decay. As the platforms burn, calls to address the fires grow louder and harder for policymakers to resist. But not all solutions to platform decay are created equal. Some solutions will perversely enshrine the dominance of platforms, help make them both too big to fail and too big to jail.
Musk has flagrantly violated so many rules, laws and consent decrees that he has accidentally turned Twitter into the perfect starting point for a program of platform reform and platform evacuation."
“…the case for using Twitter grows weaker. I get ten times as many replies and reposts on Mastodon, though my Mastodon follower count is a tenth the size of my (increasingly hypothetical) Twitter audience.” https://pluralistic.net/2023/10/14/freedom-of-reach/#ex@pluralistic

"I get ten times as many replies and reposts on Mastodon, though my Mastodon follower count is a tenth the size of my (increasingly hypothetical) Twitter audience." https://pluralistic.net/2023/10/14/freedom-of-reach/#ex . Indeed, @pluralistic . Long may we endure here.
Another good piece by Cory, updated with bits about Twitter: "Enshittification is the process by which a platform lures in and then captures end users ... whereupon the platform rug-pulls ... and allocates all the value they generate and exchange to itself." https://pluralistic.net/2023/10/14/freedom-of-reach/#ex
#Enshittification is the process by which a #platform lures in and then captures end users (stage one), who serve as bait for business customers, who are also captured (stage two), whereupon the platform rug-pulls both groups and allocates all the value they generate and exchange to itself (stage three):

#LoopShare is a handy hashtag to search musical ideas born of a loop (or loops) with little/no serious development.
This little gem began life as a 4-bar loop performed on the #CS-30 and blossomed into a simple Giallo love scene theme. (sense of ironic humor required)
If you're interested in working with the raw loop material yourself, just give me a shout.
Last week, after meeting with @AlanZucconi, I read the news that Bram Moolenaar (the creator of #Vim) had passed.
I was very close to my wife's alma mater, Queen Mary University, and I remember it was an important institution in the history of #vi and #Vim editors.
Samuel Alito tells Congress to stay out of #Supreme#Court ethics controversy.
What an entitled frat bro fascist.
Because Sammy will meet #ex-parte with anyone he wants.
Sammy will accept as many luxury flights as he see fit.
Sammy will take luxury fishing trips with #plaintiffs or #defendants, whomever is paying.
As if ex-parte gifts were a thing!
No one, he means no one will hold him accountable.
Sammy's logic is not sound.
But there is more from Sammy ...
Congress should stay out of the Supreme Court’s business and stop trying to impose ethics rules on justices and clerks, Justice Samuel Alito said in an interview published by The Wall Street Journal editorial page Friday.
“Congress did not create the Supreme Court,” Alito said. 😂
Hey Xelon MusX, wie läufts denn so mit deinem 44 Milliarden Dollar Kauf - Jetzt, da die Plattform gefühlt nur noch aus "Ihr findet mich jetzt auf folgenden Social Media Plattformen..." Posts besteht?
