@icy @petersanchez incredibly it's 2024 and accessing your files over the network from different operating systems is somehow harder than it was in 1984.
@petersanchez @icy I use KeePass and sync it via Syncthing across all my devices (including Android, the KeePassDX client is pretty good)
It's been like 4 days and I'm already pretty sick of the phrase "prosecute the case against Trump".
@knapjack @icy I tried "wingdings font" but it didn't work!
@cks I use emms on my work system, which uses mpv under the hood. Apparently mpv can play from ZIP files? Never tried it.
Endless traaaaaaash!

@tedu The Soviets just used Yale locks
@amszmidt I think detailed instructions would be even more valuable than a prebuilt world, actually... teach a man to fish etc. :)
@amszmidt Are you going to be able to roll this into upcoming disk images for the CADR simulator? Or are there licensing issues?
Get a tattoo on your scalp that says "if you can read this my haircut is too short"
@amszmidt a C REPL on a CADR machine? It's weird but I love it.
@quantsini That's a great picture! I'm especially curious about the "Sunny 16" box on the right edge :)
@cks @tef Ah yeah let me just go talk to the guy wearing a dirty cat-hair-covered shirt that essentially calls me an asshole, I bet it'll be a pleasant interaction
It's interesting following the new variations of #AI #slop books advertised on my Kindle. Lately I've been seeing a lot of self-help books which will have a title that makes sense but the small text (where author name, review blurbs, sub-titles etc. should go) is all nonsense. This one almost got it. Mantaginas sklies!
@jbcrawford Guess Damnation Alley had more fans than we thought...
@mattblaze Asking a real question, not an attempt at a political gotcha or anything: in states that don't require any ID to vote in-person, what stops somebody from rolling into the polling place, claiming to be Matt Blaze, and filling out a ballot? (Aside from the risk of going to jail if caught) What happens when the poll workers also turn up your legitimate mail-in ballot?
You'd have to drive to all these different polling places to cast 1 fraudulent vote at each, but after the last few elections it doesn't seem impossible that somebody would make the effort... so what are the countermeasures in place to handle this sort of thing?
@quantsini if I don't know what to eat in California, I just get a burrito. Hard to go wrong at a taqueria.
@tedu If you haven't already played it, I think Vampire Survivors is the standard Deck game: its aesthetic looks great on the little screen, the controls mesh well, and although each "run" takes 15, 20, or 30 minutes (depending on map) you can just hit pause and suspend the Deck whenever you need and hop back in later.
I've mostly been playing Sea of Thieves on mine lately, which doesn't work quite as well in some ways (SoT doesn't like coming back from suspend) but it's the only way I've played games for the last year and a half.
@cross @Meyerweb Mail servers "defederate" you based on the whims of some automated blacklisting system -- an IP address somewhere kinda close to yours sent a spam.
Mastodon servers defederate you because their admin discovers you once interacted with a user who later turned out to be the incorrect kind of Marxist, or because with sufficient numerology your username can be associated with something racist, or because you're running the wrong server software on your instance.
Anyway I just run Honk, not Mastodon, and while Ted's naming practices can make some of the less-frequent operations a bit of a guessing game, at least it's easy to manage.
@knapjack @thomasfuchs let us not ignore the acoustic coupler, or the row of neatly-arranged ties hanging in the suitcase.
@obviousdwest @mattblaze Mastodon seems to have pulled in two groups: normal people who think Twitter was a cesspit, and those who were too fucking deranged even for Twitter.
Matt seems to also have a knack for attracting a third group: slightly grumpy grandmothers who think he's rude. Blocked!!
