The next time someone gives you guff for pronouncing gif as “jif”, ask them why they say scuba instead of “scuh-baa”.

And by the way, the inventor calls them “jifs” and, you know, giraffe, gym, and giant are words too. Just saying.

@Kierkegaanks and linguistics can't be rigidly contained by "logic". Isn't it beautiful!

Language is proof of evolution. Nothing evolves and adapts over time and space quite like it, conservatives be damned.

@Kierkegaanks Oh I don't take it seriously, but I definitely get a kick out of poking the hard G bears!

I never really cared, but the whole "hard g because "graphic"" argument is weak. Acronyms as words become their own words. It's not "scuh-baa", it's not "uh-ids", it's scuba and aids.

The video was super interesting, eh? Didn't know that about taser!

Cool little IG video on Camden Yards in Baltimore. I love that the field is right in downtown (and next to the Ravens stadium). https://www.instagram.com/reel/C6uTIphydRS/

@stux good meowing and welcome back! Looks like we are up and running (albeit a little clunky at the moment) AND with a fresh coat of paint too!

Richer background on the site and a nicer posting box!

Congrats!

If I did my time zone maths right, @stux is about to do our server migration soon. If the good lords a-willin’ and the creeks don’t rise, I’ll see ya on the flip side.

N64 Recompiled is what makes me love PC gaming so much

(YouTube is still processing the video, so ironically the embedded vid is going to be low res for a bit 😅)

@matt Thoughts on mobile emulators?? N64 hitting iPhones! What a time to be a game developer!

renwillis,
@renwillis@mstdn.social avatar

@matt Agreed! I’m lowkey hoping for a resurgance in new games written for Gameboy Advance.

renwillis,
@renwillis@mstdn.social avatar

@matt Me too! Between emulators for smartphones and all the hardware emulators out now, I want indie developers to go at it!

Social media disappointments:

  1. Journalists are still actively participating at exTwitter, thereby actively supporting Musk, who is helping extremists bring down democracy and, by extension, a free press.

  2. Reddit got away with stomping its volunteer moderators and users, and its execs are cashing in on an IPO that in a more just world would have flopped.

  3. Writers I respect decided to stick with Substack despite arrogant, extremist-friendly investors and leadership.

@IveyJanette @dangillmor I haven’t been on in ages, but my friends who still have accounts say the feed is a shit show of nothing they actually follow.

I’m not challenging your choices or anything like that, just curious if you are finding the same? When you log in, are you even seeing those journalist?
