Everyone is really excited about this new social network but tbh the ux has left a lot to be desired for me
It's been a few weeks since

THE CHAT PROTOCOL OF THE FUTURE

I have three priorities in my life, in this order:

1. Make cool shit
2. Help others make cool shit
3. Share that cool shit with even more people

I truly believe, more than anything, that collaborating to build something, anything is the greatest thing to bring us together.

If you have any technical problem on the internet a trans furry with a IBM thinkpad running some blue colored flavor on linux has probably figured it out and posted about it on their micro blog

I was coding up a Home Assistant automation to track when the laundry was done, but I couldn't figure out how to actually notify people.  I don't mind getting push notifications but I know they bug most people.

We have a smart LED switch next to the garage where the laundry is, and fortunately I was setting up the automation while @kataze was playing Old Skies, so I was inspired to make it a glowing quest objective marker.  

Making the house extra dorky for the dorky animals.

The queer energy cashier at the grocery store asked baby @Rusty who collared him and it was really fun watching him try to weasel his way out of that question.
We spend nearly a year building the TeleChallenge. For 2025, we created 21 channels of television-style audio content (most of it completely original) along with a soundtrack we produced for the game. It's a completely immersive world which is unlike anything you have ever experienced. If you find this intriguing, we hope you'll look for us and play next time. Part of the puzzle is figuring out that you're in one.

The Dozier Drill bracket at DEFCON has officially filled up!! Please join us in the @TOOOL lock pick village at 12pm for the thrilling finals!!!
