Half the planet is having a massive fight about how to correctly interpret an Ancient Greek poem but go ahead, close some more humanities departments.

I was talking to a friend about weird things that got people fired. Years ago I worked IT. 90's 1. Guy downloaded 100's of songs to his desktop, shared them on the network. Desktops slowed to a crawl. We cleared it off, reprimanded him & told him not to do again. He did it 2 more times & got fired.

I'm curious whether the overacting was accidental or a choice to make the English easier to understand and/or follow the obnoxious foreigner stereotype

Part of my writing process is getting major plot points down on paper, moving them around, and literally seeing what works. It allows for so much flexibility! And better yet, it’s fun, too. #booksky

I adored this session. All hail @bythediceroll.bsky.social and their new telepathic lobster Shern! :D

I was a big fan of DosBox Staging. Some cool unique features and modern development practices. Unfortunately, the project lead has recently gone all in on AI and is saying stuff like "AIs would be more fair/neutral than a human". Yikes. I can no longer recommend their fork at all. What a shame.

Remember Epic's original Unreal game? Some mad man going by the handle Green Screen remade it in CGA. 😵 How? By turning it into a Myst-like adventure. Get it at unrealcga.com. (It's also now listed on DOSGames.com but it's almost 800mb + you need the original Unreal ...) #dosgames #dosgaming

You guys can just hang out and do nothing and then once every hour or so one of you can say “Christopher Nolan, bro” and the other one can be like “yeah man” And that alone will help

"I've got a great campaign written, I just can't get a group together" is the peak D&D experience.

An excellent excuse to go back to this one:

behold!!! I have invented and built the space shuttle myself!

Even though I know it's not the case, this shall be the truth for me

That I didn't know! English is a funny language

They are though. Orcas, like all other dolphins, are toothed whales

I just saw a meme that said “get in losers, we’re reclaiming the emdash”. People. PEOPLE. Where are your STANDARDS? It CLEARLY should be “get in, losers — we’re reclaiming the em dash.”

I wonder how many of those copies of Quake shareware were cracked for a cheap full version of the game

Reminder, Thane is available everywhere you can buy the best physical books and ebooks. It's a good book, and I promise nearly everyone in it dies. Literally. #books #thriller #mystery www.barnesandnoble.com/w/thane-aaro...
