Ok I've called down now and realised it's mostly been a straight transfer of votes from Tory to Reform. My brain just panicked at watching the fash party creep across the country.
And! The absolute LAST THING I need today, Unnamed Clueless CoworkeR, is for you to wish me A HAPPY HARRY POTTER DAY.

Who would have thought that abandoning the left and chasing right wing voters that were always going to vote for even further right parties could result in this. Definitely not what everyone's been saying for years. Who could have possibly thought. Fucking hell.

Just turn around and ditch the LGBTQ and ally vote weeks before the local elections. Genius move.

So, I've seen a couple of people say Strange New Worlds had to go back for some reshoots to make it less "woke" so that the Trump administration will approve a Paramount merger. Is that actually a thing, or are people just linking plausible dots with no solid evidence?

Like I could 100% believe it, I'm just hoping the world isn't quite that depressing in this one instance.

Oh my gods. The Paramount+ tv app is so shockingly bad it is not just easier to put shit on the Plex it's a better viewing experience too, it's so choppy. I'm still going to pay for it because I want them to keep making Star Trek but I'm not happy about it.
Going to a metamor's drag show tonight, thought it'd be a good time to wear these prescription novelty lenses that I bought for an event months ago I didn't end up going to

After being unable to find this pin for sale anywhere, I ended up having them made. It was cost-prohibitive to buy any fewer than 100 so I have a lot of spares. They're printed on metal ("soft enamel") with a safety-pin backing.

Anyone want one?

I'll send one to anyone in the United States completely free, shipping included, while supplies last (with priority going to people who identify as trans).

-------

**EDIT 1:** There have been way more requests than I have pins. I'm still working my way through messages and that will probably take me the day, but at this point if I have not yet replied to you and you do not identify as trans, then I will most likely not have a pin for you. BUT I had them made at https://www.enamelpins.com/ and it was really easy; you can get a bunch for a couple hundred dollars, and also give away the extras :)

**EDIT 2:** They are all spoken for. I'll try to respond to everyone if I can, but if you haven't gotten a message from me about it yet, sadly I won't have one for you.

Do you have an old linux laptop on which you can't play steam games that use DirectX12? (ex: Cyberpunk 2077, Rust, Elden Ring, Counter-Strike 2, Monster Hunter)

Specifically, showing an error about not being able to create the directx12 surface and asking to update gpu drivers?

I'll be adding an option to Proton to swap in upstream vkd3d instead of vkd3d-proton. This generally gives worse performance on modern hardware but it also has more compatibility with older drivers, so it should be possible to support older hardware better.

I've had this issue on my old laptop, but it'd be nice to see if other people are interested in this as well!

Boosts are appreciated :)
