please goddess when i get older do not let me miss the point of posts as easily as the fuckin' champion point-missers on here. grant me the grace to just walk past shit that is obviously not for me and not drag my unending personal windmill tilts into other people's threads. if i ever invent an equivalent of "M$" or "dRumpf" may i be struck with a meteor that has itself just been struck by lightning on the way down. for serious, amen

is Yoon Ha Lee's Moonstorm Voltron fanfic? our reporter investigates the mecha setting, the ⚫️🔴🟡🟢🔵 color scheme, the horny rivals, and Big Guy Who Is Always Eating to see how deep the lion hole goes. click here for the full report.

my six year old Intel MacBook Pro is basically useful (bigger screen, more RAM, more storage, more external displays than my M1 Air, if slightly worse CPU performance) but the thing that drives me to upgrade someday will be the thermals. run go test ./anything/nontrivial/... and the thing starts blasting fans like it's trying to take off. put it on my lap and i'm glad my junk is on the inside now. can't use it on the bed without a book underneath. mystery how Intel is still around honestly

my Fediverse post migration tool slurp can now import from Bluesky!

i'm looking for beta testers who would like to give it a try, ideally on a throwaway Fedi server like a GTS testrig.

caveats:

  • currently doesn't check Bluesky's advisory "Discourage apps from showing my account to logged-out users" profile flag: imported Bluesky posts will have public visibility on Fedi
  • doesn't attempt to translate Bluesky thread gates to GTS interaction policies, because i need to catch up on both first
  • video alt text is preserved but captions are not, because Bluesky's per-language VTT sidecar caption files would need to be converted and inlined for Fedi servers expecting one file per video
  • doesn't handle quote posts, because GTS doesn't have quote posts

"Vyr why don't you play a critically acclaimed JRPG for once. you know. a good one"

name some with a female protagonist. go on i'll wait

k now drop the ones that are spinoffs of better funded main series, drop the ones where you get to pick your gender and they have to write the protagonist the same on either path, then Bechdel filter that list

see the problem?
