@grueproof@fosstodon.org

Based in suburbia between Cleveland and Akron OH, USA. Coder by day, game master by night.

I am all about a good story: hearing, witnessing, or creating. Tabletop RPGs are my medium of choice. I consume books voraciously.

I believe in both the power of privacy and the power of sharing. People over profits. We must hang together or surely we will hang separately.

I had not heard of The Fourth Ambit before, but I’m listening now, and it is really good cyberpunk from 2001. Available as a podcast: https://www.ambitgroup.com/

The code reading I've been doing these past couple of weeks would have broken earlier versions of me, even as recently as a few months ago.

The code is far from the worst I've seen. About what you'd expect of even its brief history. Past me would have struggled, questioning that history mercilessly.

I've achieved enough equanimity that my mind now ruminates more on my actual job: what to do with my findings. My challenge right now is holding to beginner's mind, to keep options open.

Jack Dorsey Leaves Bluesky Board, Calls X ‘Freedom Technology’ https://www.msn.com/en-ph/money/technology/jack-dorsey-leaves-bluesky-board-calls-x-freedom-technology/ar-BB1lSjbe

So much for Bluesky. If Jack’s out, there’s probably nothing left but to extract the remaining value from its users and then sell to Yahoo.

@tek That word. I do not think it means what he thinks it means.

Guys, remember when the internet was interesting and full of promise and stuff? When it was exciting to be there?

I...I think I'm over it.

It is time. Time for me to bring my podcast back. I no longer have any excuses not to. And ten more years of undigested experiences working on the front lines of tech. And I am feeling so spicy. You have no idea.

It FINALLY happened! After literally more than a year of people asking, I've launched my merch store!

I promise the experience of browsing this store will be just as bizarre as anything else I do.

See for yourself at https://shop.endeavorance.camp! Thank you all so much for the support!

A white and pink mug that reads "Don't Prey on Children"
A green t-shirt with a poorly cropped, very large print of Endeavorance's close-up face on it.
A green t-shirt that simply says "Hello!" in white text on the front.
