Imagine where we’d be if this stuff was allowed to mature in the 2000s alone

Watching that in my high school electronics class was a early radicalizing moment

In a weird way, the development of advanced communications and coordination technology has only made it harder for anything to change in a significant way .

The Alliance Attacking Freedom - How Trump’s troops are attacking gender rights and underpinning the far right in Europe (corporateeurope.org)

Money is pouring into Europe from ultraconservative US foundations. One of the biggest spenders is the Alliance Defending Freedom, a Christian right wing organization that has played a prominent part in rolling back gender, abortion, and LGBTQIA+ rights on both sides of the Atlantic. Its latest tax filing shows it has doubled...

The think tank ghouls are the worst. If I had it in my ability to just wipe the Heritage Foundation, Focus on The Family, and all those other consortiums of reaction from the earth…

It’s downright insulting that the Vatican or whoever it was made that unironically insinuated that there’s any order to creation. Look at the human knee. Look at the Koala’s obligate coprophagy.

I still don’t really understand Ultras. If We Burn compared them to football hooligans, which makes a decent amount of sense, but I’m kind of curious where they come from and how.

Wrestling and boxing’ve always kind of been a shitshow for politics, and I assume that carries over to MMA

I never did like that “real americans”, “true british patriots” sort of line. A little self-aggrandizing and self-congratulatory. (Also it insinuates that national identity and authenticity thereof matter in a way that they don’t)

The gutting of the humanities and other things generally written off as “frivolous” kind of terrified me. There’s something that feels distinctly wrong about these attempts at destroying and anyone that even might turn an introspective gaze on society itself. Like they don’t want anything that might foster self-awareness accessible to the layman.

Am I gonna have to pay for a vpn that actually lets me fake being outside the ‘states? I usually self host on a VM host to avoid incurring expenses, but it seems like that’s not really an option here. Seems like I might have to go for a AWS instance running PiVPN or something.

M68040,
@M68040@hexbear.net avatar

Yeah, that’s kind of what I was wondering. Turns out you can’t really do much useful with a self-hosted local VPN, but I like having the option of using one be something my VM host server provides.

The full merger of right-wing conspiracy circles and mainstream politics makes me want to get turned into one of those blobs from I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream.

Re: Moreno, it’s weird to me how these guys just suddenly get to pivot. Cruz kind of did the same thing.

Oh hey, I had some good results with Krita when I was still making digital art way back when. It’s been like a decade. I should get myself a new tablet.

ZX Touch Is A £220 Portable ZX Spectrum With A 7-Inch Screen (www.timeextension.com)

The ZX Spectrum Vega+ was supposed to be the perfect way to experience classic ZX Spectrum games on the go, but after a botched crowdfunding campaign, ropey hardware and the collapse of the company behind it, Retro Computers Ltd, it has gone down as something of a disaster....

Honestly one of these days I’d like to see one of these doohickeys be an actual refresh of the original hardware. Not really an economical or low-effort angle to take, but hell, you can still get Z80 (and their successors) pretty cheap.

I wish I could just keep using a GSM/CDMA phone from 20 years ago indefinitely sometimes.

Old school adventure games are great for these sorts of use cases, though they may not be to your taste since they can be a little dense. Grab yourself Frotz to gain access to the entire back catalog of Infocom’s text adventures plus a entire library of modern user-made selections.

ScummVM also gets you access to a decade or two of LucasArts and Sierra Online’s classics.

I tried to run TF2 on a A4-3400 without a dedicated graphics card under Mint with Wine once like twelve years ago. It was…uh, not playable

Doing something like that’s no small commitment, that’s for sure.
