"The theft-prevention system installed in Seattle rental cars by a car-sharing company was designed to prevent cars being towed away by thieves. It disabled the cars remotely if they were detected to be moving with the engine off. Renters taking the boat ferry found themselves unable to restart their cars when the ferry docked. An anti-theft system in a car caused major delays to a regional ferry system" https://www.ft.com/content/178ab808-21ff-4ac2-a81f-f831326c22d4

Oh wow... This is something special! I found an early pre-release version of "Castle of the Winds" .. v0.5.4. This was apparently released exclusively for Microsoft employees back in the day.

I think it's an awesome collector's piece! My gratitude goes to "iamxray" for his generous upload.

Here's where I found it:

Interesting new dyslexic friendly font - https://www.oliviaking.com/inclusive-sans

finally seems that font designers are actually talking (and listening) to dyslexics about what makes a font hard to read.

hey, it's May day and while we're not yet in a mayday situation, we are asking for your help.

As you may know, MAL is part of the University of Colorado but generally a lot of our funding has come from external donors, and that has contributed to our ability to operate with a little more freedom, do weirder things, be more open and accessible to the general public than most university stuff. but, as these things go, a lot of those donors are shifting their priorities or scaling back.

we want to be able to continue being a resource in the way we have become accustomed to - maintaining our collection in working order as much as possible, offering these tools to artists and scholars and students and the general public, and doing our level best to be as weird as possible about it.

so, while we're looking at grants and other funding modes that we can shift to, we are also asking you all: does your workplace have a philanthropic fund? do you or someone you know have the means to make recurring donations? please consider asking them to contribute to our support fund, or doing so yourself:

✨ NEW RELEASE! ✨

FORGOTTEN PALACES is a trilogy of ttrpgs (well, two ttrpgs and one dtrpg) about digital worlds out of time: role-playing games inspired by making games as a kid, by early mmos, by lost aesthetics like utopian scholastic and frutiger aero.

in this thread, i'll introduce the three games.

americans won't buy small cars because they don't feel masculine enough, and they love masculine cars. in this essay i am defending that the increased prevalence of femboys in the american media landscape is a plot by car companies and ecological activists to get americans to finally buy smaller cars
