Meanwhile, Xbox Series S/X:

I’ve been following this saga since the headlines were prefixed with “Teen that created the Elon private jet tracker…”. I wouldn’t be surprised to find out he’s now been married 50 years and long-retired. I’ve lost track of time.

So…does this mean the cage match is still on?

It’s just a bummer that most tech tutorials are on there…wish we were back in the early 00s when alternatives to Youtube were still viable.

That sounds awful lol. I’m in university right now and have neglected work on any projects. I finally found something of a passion in retro game reverse engineering a few months ago and have obsessed over it. It’s only one game I’m reversing though so it’s likely to take me years and years before I can release anything resembling something playable.

You’ve now scared me into maybe working on other things too…I wonder if related projects count? A website for the project, developer tools, documentation, etc.

Last year me: I don’t trust Reddit, that’s why I use old.Reddit.

We’re self-service in California and our Costco gas queues are also asinine. Are they just that much worse over there?

Yeah it’s so stressful to think about. The only good thing to come out of this is a less-apathetic voting demographic between 18-35. Let’s hope it’s enough to keep the fascists at bay.

They never should have been allowed to buy it in the first place.

Google’s infamous graveyard makes it seem like they’re just a bored university student that can’t ever finish its side projects.

This is hilarious. I hope their code is literally something like

if (user.pref == hate("andrew tate") 
{ 
    user.is = "communist";
}

I wouldn’t even be mad.

I use Mastadon as a Twitter replacement, even though it still can see other content. I like how there’s not an apparent algorithm–it’s all chronological and feels less pandering to what it thinks I want to see.

As for Reddit alternatives, I’m happy with Beehaw and Kbin. I hope they both stick around.

Mine seems to be defending the idea, so I’m looking to move soon just not sure where anymore or when. It’s frustrating because it’s hard to find any actual positions he actually has on this topic when his timeline is just endless boosts giving people props for defending this. indieweb.social if anyone is curious.

I keep hoping that their voters finally see them for what they are, but well, I guess they do and that’s the point…
