@meduza_bot probably a trick to reduce the number of new tombstones appearing in Russia while increasing those in Ukraine, to skew the numbers

… as if I needed more reasons to hate Microsoft:

"Microsoft knowingly provides Israel with technology, including artificial intelligence (AI), that is deployed to facilitate grave human rights violations, war crimes, crimes against humanity (including apartheid), as well as genocide."

That reminds me, support for Windows 10 is ending soon, and there's a movement to replace it with Linux distros:

@nesbot what's wrong with the Dualsense?

@etnevelarts I feel you! I made websites with Publisher when I was a kid and they were fast and worked well while everyone else had those bloated Fash crap. I tried to learn modern HTML a few years back and got so lost with all the buzzword noise I just gave up. No one explains just the fucking thing!

2025-06-01

@etnevelarts we need more of this! Fuck all the COC bullshit!

WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T NEED COMPLICATED #CSS CODE TO MAKE YOUR WEBSITE USE DEVICE SPECIFIC LIGHT OR DARK MODE AND IT'S JUST A FUCKING META TAG IN #HTML !?!?! :surprised_pikachu:

I'm working on a pure HTML website for a game that I'm making, so it's nice to know that I can avoid any bloat like plague. Besides some embedded YouTube videos for trailers and progress updates.

How did I discover it? I looked at the source of this website:
justfuckingusehtml.com

This changes everything! :amaze:

@macberg it's got its use cases definitely, but then yeah a phone is a phone. Speaking of the other apps you mentioned I haven't tried them but if they're Newpipe forks they must be somewhat similar. I can only imagine they support other sources on top of YouTube, SoundCloud, bandcamp etc but it's just my guess

@macberg there was one such couple on the airport bus during my trip to Bulgaria, no idea what the guy was upset about but he surely tried to intimidate the bus driver and every one around them. I gave it the scientific name of parva mentula syndrome, colloquilally small dick syndrome

Just stumbled over a YouTube creator called Kyle Hill, who made the argument that because companies like Microsoft wants to run nuclear power plants (to generate electricity for their AI data centers), that's a sign that nuclear power is safe and green.

Like, what? Companies are the last entities on earth to care about those metrics, they created and keep creating the climate collapse we're in and untold other environmental disasters! Worst argument ever my guy.

@macberg I used to follow her! She went downhill pretty quickly in terms of health, sad story! I hope she's getting better!

In which a gang of reprobates annoy a more responsible person by smiling

#mastoart #pierregilhodes #goblins #woodruff #videogames #cartoonart #fanart #stupidart #gobliins #gobliiins

a gang of large-conjoin-eyed, smiling characters, many with pointed ears,  from the gobli[i[i]]ns video game series mob around and smile at fellow Pierre Gilhodes protagonist Woodruff, who has similarly large conjoined eyes but is not smiling.  This occurs in a brown stone paved city-type vicinity
