Fawful Month Day 11 - Inside Story Anniversary

the recent ifool sg page took up my whole night, but that conveniently times this piece to also serve as a celebration of the dark star being in ifool canon!

Crossdressing is to 'sudo' as Transitioning is to 'su'

Maybe switching to KDE will help?

I've bumped into some weird Windows registry issues in my day, but "deciding that snes9x – as in the Super Nintendo emulator – should be the default 'Open with...' option for every file type" is a new one.

Tumblr users have no excuse to not use Linux.... I know your ass isn't going outside, you're on this website. You have all the time in the world to learn what a bootloader is 🤨

to any engineer who builds computers (incl. tablets, laptops, etc...), if you don't put at least two USB-A port I will look for you, i will find you, and i will kill you

Sharing this Fedora Magazine article just because the first sentence is

This article provides a step-by-step guide to transitioning from Windows to Fedora Linux.

(you'll never guess why I think this is funny)

I think that the cybermen are metaphors for Linux users

I don't actually like Linux, I just pretend to so that trans women will think I'm cool.

tumblr, please, for the love of the light- stop showing me gay dating app ads

semi-long post condensed below readmore

I already have two wonderful girlfriends, and I’m not about to start looking for desperate older strangers to parasocialize with in a city I hold no ties to.

and -pardon my unsteady grasp on the youth-language- if I even wanted to quote-unquote “rizz up a faggot,” I could just. find one on tumblr. I- th- this isn’t a niche that needs to be filled, it’s already occupied by the very site they’re advertising on.

——

Jokes aside, the concept of a heavily-advertised “hot (demographic) in your area” queer dating site -in today’s political climate where being openly queer is dangerous- feels like a trap. Like an anglerfish luring in the unknowing and vulnerable with glistening rainbow light.

I don’t trust that it isn’t back-ended by some nefarious shit- especially if they’re managing to pay for ads to promote it. Same with that anti-depression chatbot ad I saw a few weeks back, and the “color-by-numbers solves depression/insomnia/amnesia” ad that wove its way between the torrent of tanned pectorals that tumblr is convinced I want to see (I don’t).

It’s textbook manipulation- targeting a weak point in the armor. No big company is your friend. Every single one is either out for your money or your blood. A good chunk want both at once.

…I do wish I could have a proper adblock on my phone, so I could stop getting flashbanged by some random dude’s clip-art critspot

kinda funny how most programmers would prefer to not have to touch apple products with a ten-foot pole but if you talk to basically any designer over like 25 they'll swear up and down and backwards to friday that nothing could ever hold a candle to any apple product
