Please confirm that you are enrolled for this year's elections in Aotearoa by visiting:

I'm working on multiple campaigns reaching out to thousands of people who are not enrolled to vote. We've never had American-style voter suppression before, a side effect I had not considered was that our voter registration efforts are going to be *much* bigger this year than in the past.

Go to DuckDuckGo and search for "Linux" then look at DuckDuckGo's logo again ;-)

In the late 1990s, Pangea Software was a leading developer of Mac-exclusive games. Apple commissioned them to write demonstration code for the first release of the Quickdraw 3D graphics API, and their subsequent games Nanosaur, Bugdom, and Cro-Mag Rally were bundled with various generations of Apple's iMac and iBook computers.

Nearly 30 years later, Pangea kindly released the source to these games under a Creative Commons license, and Iliyas Jorio has been porting them to modern platforms (Mac, Windows, Linux) to keep the games alive.

→ Change your password
→ Problem solved

When your biometric data leaks:
→ You can't change your face
→ You can't change your fingerprints
→ The compromise is permanent
→ Your biometric data is in breach databases forever

This is why facial recognition for age verification is dangerous.

Luxon's govt have introduced voting restrictions for 2026. They removed day enrolment for voters. This means that you, your friends and your whānau have to actively enrol by the end of October. Please check your enrolment status at https://vote.nz/ and encourage everyone you know to do the same. #NZPol

There is currently an itch.io charity bundle raising money for the Immigrant Law Centre in Minnesota. Aside from the fact that for $10 you can get an ABSURD amount of games, you're donating to help get Ice the fuck out of there, provide legal representation to low income refugees and immigrants, and raise awareness of their rights. https://itch.io/b/3484/no-ice-in-minnesota #fuckice #itchio #gaming
