Game idea: A Zelda-like RPG where no one answers their doors at any of the houses in a village unless you’ve texted first to let them know you’re coming
@mdhughes in our house, the doorbell is a threat from which we usually hide

Heh, if you find yourself adding this postscript to a story, you may find that it doesn't make anything better or anyone happier with you:
"I tend to compartmentalize and don’t often let my views on a person’s beliefs or politics impact my interest in their work."
@elithebearded Yeah, neither my wife nor I are great at turning away solicitors. We're both too much afflicted with people pleasing. So our defense strategy is to simply avoid the interaction and screen visitors
I slept on Chappell Roan and now I have HOT TO GO! stuck firmly in my head.
My brain implements a stack on RAM chips that keep getting bombarded with cosmic rays.
It is time to rebuild the Z80 ZMOB 256 parallel processing supercomputer for AI before the chip stock goes away.
(Did anyone actually build this thing and take pictures back in the day?)
re: im not supposed to be here but i need to warn people about something re: tetris, FPGA and the military industrial complex
@rachaelspooky dang, that's a real juicy tetris clone!
You know, I’m surprised no one’s tried to make a Garfield / Furiosa double feature happen in the theaters like Barbie / Oppenheimer. Gariosa? Furifield?
@rgegriff I think they have to keep the software in the passenger cabin, though, like batteries in case they burst into flames

let me get this straight, because I haven't been paying attention at all:
1) many "2nd Amendment" fans seem very in favor of this guy Hunter Biden going to jail over buying a gun?
2) there was a form with a checkbox self-attesting that he wasn't using illegal drugs at the time he bought the gun - and by checking this and allegedly lying about the drugs, apparently this means he'd "broken through the 'only safeguard' for ensuring that drug users don’t unlawfully purchase firearms"
This country is many levels of just fuckin dumb
@jacqueline I'm going to keep rotating my shield harmonics by installing a different distro every weekend
The Call of the Void to just start posting wads of Dead Can Dance lyrics to my LinkedIn on a daily basis like it's a LiveJournal account
@tschak same same (and occurring now!)
What if a bunch of people just started using LinkedIn like LiveJournal? Like instead of inspirational business memes, it's all fan fiction and 3am emo thoughts and photos of Hot Topic purchases.
@lordbowlich See, the fix there is to just make every sprint feel like an incident
LinkedIn Park
(surely someone has already done this)
@cabel You will have already enjoyed this pizza 12 hours ago, the memory will surface once the causality wave reaches you. Look for the leftovers in your fridge
@jgarber :oof: +100 points
I love notifications on devices where I can only tell there was one because I saw it slide away out of the corner of my eye but I never got the chance to actually notice & read it
