I've heard at least anecdotal accounts of parrots being able to at least... repeat phrases monolithically in appropriate contexts. Like hearing the "it's okay, it's okay" the owner would use to soothe them, and repeat it back when their owner was distressed.

So a thing you don't notice until you start using a password manager with a fancy password generator is how many sites set *upper* bounds on your password length and *forbid* a lot of special characters.

Boy don't you just love having the entire world around you turn into slop. Ooh, just monetize that rot as the world crumbles around you! Who cares if you just make things a little bit worse for everyone! You might even get rich if venture capital still exists next year!

The upside is the problem isn't actually with this package it's webkit upstream and i can easily fix that by temporarily downgrading. ANd fuck it's webkit. that probably means vibecoding doesn't it

Me: [spends like an hour putting together an amazing 100% reproduction path for a bug report] Maintainer: [closes bug report in less than 5 minutes because it's a duplicate of a bug named based on what's happening rather than the symptoms I observed] Like that's fair enough but aaaaugh.

The weird control freak nerd in me wishes SDL could emplace its structures onto memory you'd already allocated. This isn't a rational desire. And i could probably achieve it by doing horrible abuses of SDL's allocator functions.but i should probably just not worry about it.

It's kinda funny that in modern English Austria and Australia get their names easily confused, because Australia comes from Australis, the latin word for "south", but Austria comes from Ostarrîchi, the Old High German word for "Eastern realm"

Back in the 00s i used to use poison headcrab sounds from half-life 2 as my text and system notification songs to deliberately troll anyone else who'd played the game. But then when i played the game I would keep wanting to check my phone.

emulation is a golden example of the rule that you can fix anything in programming by adding a layer of abstraction

I think a lot of The ~Discourse~ around the terminology kind of misses the point that they are jargon terms, and that jargon is a natural consequence of a field having things that need concise terminology because they're important to that field, but of lesser interest outside that field.

(he got called the voice of "reason" during the latest Yudkowsky-adjacent cult kerfluffle but he wasnt't so much acting from reason as from "slowdown means less shovels to sell to the miners and stonks don't go up as fast")

I've been saying for years than the 2008 recession never ended; they just figured how to better separate the stock market from the real world.

It'd kinda be interesting to see a remaster of one of the donkey kong country games (or some other prerendered-sprite-graphic game) in modern HD. (ofc who knows if any of the original models were kept or if they'd survive being seen at high resolution but)

That's correct but it's also worth noting that all of the idTech engines up through gen 4 (doom 3 engine) do have official GPL source releases and accompanying source ports. I don't think any of the games besides Doom have "freedoom" style noncommercial base data.

Ken Silverman, the creator of the engine, makes it sound like it's an official open source release www.advsys.net/ken/build.htm

I'm still not convinced that leaving IRC was a net benefit.

Morning Song @aubade.itch.io · 27/09/2026
People keep asserting this crap and I really gotta wonder what's actually convincing them because literally every time i've actually seen it in action it kinda half-works if you don't look at it too hard. It's literally been just like the text and the images.

There we go. I'm not proud of the vectorwork, and 2 and 5 gave me particular trouble but i think this is workable.

Me: Oh, this is a really nice didone serif monospace font. (New Heterodox Mono) It even has a decent loop size on e to make it easy to distinguish from c. Also me: It doesn't have old style figures though Still me:

tbf it was probably like that for us and our parents too. The media just hid it better back then so we didn't find out until they were dead or safely out of extradition range.

Aww, darn. C++ doesn't yet have an equivalent of D's opDispatch overload. That allows some absolute sicko shit and i love it unreasonably.

Man. C++ finally starts to get serious compile-time type reflection just in time for all the major compilers to turn into slop. This is such a depressing time to like computers.
