@misty a movie passes the Bechamel test if it features two women journalists who don’t talk about their sources

@faithisleaping an old tweet that we felt the need to save for our personal archive

NTP: the computer knows when it is at all times. it knows this because it knows when it isn’t.

Anyway, I drew Bulbasaur as a wretched medieval frog

Spring! #Photography #PlantBud

early spring, sharp edges, soft light 🌿 ✨

HRT that turns you back into a magical girl

I bring a sort of "there must be some mistake, you were one of the ones who wasn't supposed to make it back" to the survivorship bias picture that the other red dots damn well better like.

Thor wants all your snuggles.

No, really. ALL of them.

If you’re petting him with one hand, he wants you to pet him with both hands.

If one of our other cats is getting snuggles, he will come barreling in to also get snuggles.

He is a Snuggle Monster. He will take all your snuggles.

is there any particular way for one to more easily put on N95s while having long somewhat frizzy hair

i usually just tie my hair up and then put it on cause it's somewhat easier that way, but whenever i try to put on one with my hair down it's kind of. a mess and usually takes several minutes, so if there was any way one could speed that up that would be much appreciated

It'd be funny if ex-VRChat devs wrote a book titled So You Want To Make A Second Life Clone and someone at Meta bought copies for their leadership team

How’s your evening going?

Mine is … watching @1Password and Apple password fight over who gets to login to the Alaska app to the point of locking my account and I don’t even remember why I last had to change my password and now I remember why everyone hates security.

the phrase "wii sporks resorks" has arrived in my brain and refuses to leave.

So, uh, apparently this went a bit viral. Hi Fedi!

I'm still looking for work if you're hiring a very senior (30+ years) architect/syseng/SRE type who quite literally has worked on every Unix there is, knows scale (40k hosts,) and has 26 years of configuration management.

You can probably guess which companies and requirements are automatic disqualifiers.

fragments from a late 18th century graphics API (wax-sealed epistles recovered from the wreck of a clipper):
"the Work shall be enumerated thus:"
"this frame the Work shall be a matter of Indices"
"i am most eager for you to begin the Work"
"as for the matter of the vertices, haste is of the utmost - spare only 16 Royal Bits for each"
"i remain your most faithful and humble servant"

The BASIC dialect we're using here is derived from Tom Pittman's, and it uses an interpreted bytecode called TBIL to do most of the work of interpreting BASIC.

As I think I mentioned elsewhere, I made a TBIL code generator for the asl assembler and successfully rebuilt the TBIL code.

Now, this bears fruit: It made it say to add the SAY command. A few posts above, I was sending phoneme numbers as numbers.

But now, I wrote a program that turns the phoneme list into a series of TBIL parsing instructions, so that you can write

10 SAY "HE H3 L L O"
20 SAY"K UH1 M P Y1 IU U T E R"
30 END

Comma and period are used for the two pause
codes, rather than PA0 and PA1.

It takes about 450 bytes of (ROM) code to parse the phonemes.

I've been using this phoneme dictionary to look up words:

doing English to phoneme translation would be Much Harder (TM)

I love BART.

How many people dancing in the woods together is the right amount? Remember kids, if it's more than a car-full, you'd better be careful! #charts #HowDoIEvenTagThis

TRANS PEOPLE in the US: What area of the US do you live in?

I'm curious what regions of the US have the most active trans users on the fediverse. Please respond first to this poll, then find the appropriate follow-up poll and respond too. This is mostly just for our general community curiosity/knowledge as an interesting bubble of trans people on the internet.
