Richard Dawkins talking to Claude and immediately going "Oh, you're nice to me. You must be a conscious entity, and a lady" is so funny.
Basically the worst thing that can happen to any game studio is releasing a wildly successful live service game.

@justvanrossum@typo.social Bitterly ironic to share this image "from the internet" about laziness, greed, and theft without crediting the artist Mitch Goldstein https://imginn.com/p/DZYfxY1GtdR/

@rodneylives@mefi.social You're generous. I usually unfollow them, or at least mute them.

Not entirely sure why Mastodon needs lists, collections, and "featured profiles" pinned to your profile. You know what would be cooler than a collection of profiles? A collection of specific posts, so artists could make galleries.
Need to start calling my phone a PDA
Call me absolute horses but I think you should be able to go to any company and request that they delete all their information about you.
The past, present, and future walk into a bar.
The past was simple.
The present was progressive.
The future was perfect.
It was tense.
Clearly I have failed to consider the educational value of (checks notes) having an AI do it for you.

I know it's a cliché but it's not getting any less true.

@nelson@tech.lgbt @mathowie@xoxo.zone It took me a minute to realize the complaint wasn't that AI screwed something up in the image, but rather the image depicts something screwed up because of AI.

@justvanrossum@typo.social I appreciate that. I've encountered way too many posters who don't care and blithely move on to the next post.
This part is actually just how British boarding schools have always worked

Interviewer: What would the other guard say is your biggest weakness?
Me: He would say that I only speak in lies.
The latest Star Fox designs don't go far enough. They should look like actual animals that have been cybernetically uplifted. I want to see no humanlike intelligence behind Fox's beady little predator eyes.
What color bikini are we supposed to wear for Cinco de Mayo?
I don't like that the standard language is that charging a lithium battery to 80% is safe and 100% will slowly degrade battery performance. It should be 100% and you can opt in to charging to 120% with the understanding that this will degrade your battery.

@paco I've done my fair share of plumbing and I can say it's genuinely harder to use that many 45 and 22.5 degree fittings than to just make everything nice 90 degree angles.

@47363@norden.social @Lana@beige.party I suspect it's a typo for "short skirt" but yeah it can be a shirt skirt too

@bloor it might involve one quick trip to the hardware store, but three visits later you'll really be pleased with the results.

Sort of like pinned posts, but on a separate linkable page. Artist galleries, posts about a specific topic (like an ongoing project), that sort of thing. Similar to what you can do with tagging, but more deliberate.
Steam interface continues to present me with these delightful "deals"

@anyachalina@mastodon.art By "recently" I assume you mean "over the last 25 years" because these are astoundingly beautiful and detailed

@txtechnician@mastodon.social @shansterable@ohai.social Look no further than the diversity of platforms on ActivityPub versus how many ATProto platforms there are. The protocol has always been a red herring. All that matters is the appview and their control over it.
Replying to
@davidgerard@circumstances.run Don't forget Bridgy Fed which has to be the most cursed way to interact with AT Protocol but does have its own PDS.
Star Fox 64 is not only the best Star Fox game, it's the only Star Fox game.
My partner struggles with ideas for gifts for me so I started a video game pin collection on my MiSTer.
But then I let slip that I started the collection so they would have something to get me and now they don't get me pins anymore :(
I applied for a pixelfed.art account monday morning and still haven't heard back. I assume they're just intimidated.
Replying to
@gnomon@mastodon.social Alternatively, we can reject both locally hosted and remotely hosted features. If I ever want any of the crap they're pushing I know who to ask.
Replying to
@jsstaedtler@mastodon.art There is an export feature built in to Mastodon, I just got a backup of my mastodon.art account in the event that I can import it into a pixelfed.art account
Replying to
@jsstaedtler@mastodon.art That probably does not extend to the content of toots you bookmarked, however. So that seems worth mucking about with

@thingsofshane @j_bertolotti Ultramarines wear khakis, not corduroys. Pretty embarrassing screwup IMO.

@6@possum.city whatever algorithm they use does not handle it well when you already own part of the bundle, which is funny given they advertise "Complete your collection!"
I once had one that was like "Do you want to buy this game, or this discounted two game bundle but you already own one of the games?" It was $1 less to buy the "bundle."
Replying to
@shansterable@ohai.social Generally when I see someone talking about a specific topic and I see a term I don't understand I consult the appropriate reference document, in this case https://atproto.com/guides/the-at-stack#pds
But you might guess that I am hopelessly biased towards reference documents.
