I’m shockingly recognizable, so if you think you know me, you probably know me.
I never noticed that the green and red wires in Factorio looked like “g” and “R”!

@siracusa.social I was just updating some apps on the Canadian Mac App Store, and saw a familiar sounding app in the recommendations section. Congratulations!

Today you are going to see nearly every editorial piece written in Postmedia publications blaming Canadians or liberals for the trade war. This is to distract from the fact that they have American ownership, and have been arguing against Canadian interests for sometime.

Suicide Prevention is a very important cause to me and based on multiple skeets on my skyline:

📞 988 - National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (has text chat, too)

🏳️‍⚧️ Trans Lifeline - 877-565-8860

🏳️‍🌈 Trevor Project - 866-488-7386

Or if you are in immediate danger go to the closest emergency room.

Hi, bluesky 🦋 can you help me out?

Is there anything in Firefox DevTools like Local Overrides in Chrome DevTools? I can't seem to find it, but maybe I'm missing something?

Consumer Reports and Tall Poppy join forces to find out if people-search site removal services really work. Unsurprisingly, the answers are "kind of," "not always" and "it depends." innovation.consumerreports.org/wp-content/u...

This is wild: Ticketmaster introduced 'non-transferrable' tickets, so resales would have to happen on its own platform (further monopolization). Now scalpers have worked with hackers to reverse engineer the barcodes, makes them transferrable www.404media.co/scalpers-are...

Scalpers have reverse-engineered how Ticketmaster creates tickets, and are now generating and selling them on their own parallel infrastructure.

It's increasingly clear that the people who make generative AI don't like films, don't like books, don't like art of any kind, and don't understand why anyone else does.
