Salt really missed an opportunity when they renamed masters to controllers. I mean, the controlled nodes are called minions - villain is right there.

Just got jumped by a gang of Seattle babyfurs who forced me at knifepoint to go to the gas station and buy them juice and cookies. I am no longer a democrat.

I often crop my photos in an effort to make them more abstract/composed/whatever but that means I sometimes can't even remember what it was a photo of to begin with.

I started looking through uncropped versions of photos and thought it was interesting to see how they started and how they ended up, so I figured I'd share some examples.

These are all color to black and white because they show the biggest difference from start to finish.

Going through old screenshots and seeing a post from a mutual you used to like seeing and realizing that they've silently disappeared.

If you're an EU Citizen, please consider signing the Stop Killing Games Initiative: https://www.stopkillinggames.com/eci

It's not just about Video Games, it's about consumer rights.

It aims to prevent publishers from producing video games with the intended purpose of disabling them in future. It does this by requiring an End-Of-Life Plan, which involves making reasonable efforts to allow people to continue playing the game after official support ends.

Many games become unplayable after a period of time because they are designed with essential online-only features that cannot possibly be supported forever.

This stands in stark opposition to normal consumer practices where you either:
- Buy a product forever.
- Rent a license with a set deadline.

If this initiative passes we would have strong grounds for a law that:
- Prevents the unnecessary loss of media due to harmful practices.
- Benefits gamers who want to keep playing games past the sell-by-date.
- Benefits developers who poured years of their life into a product, only to see it vanish forever due to some bigwig exec.
- Sets a precedent for protecting consumer rights, with a knock-on affect to other products requiring online features to work, such as cars, phones, and other software.

Hello, Fediverse. I'm looking for embedded experts to help save #LEGO MINDSTORMS!

Background: https://pybricks.com/project/saving-lego-mindstorms/

Help: https://github.com/pybricks/support/issues?q=label%3A%22help%20wanted%22%20label%3A%22platform%3A%20EV3%22

I've made major progress, but I'd love to get some help! If writing an SPI flash driver or USB device implementation is your thing, I would love to hear from you 😀

I'll gladly donate an EV3 set for this. We can do this as a paid project too if that's a better fit. Let's discuss!
