@leo I know what you mean about Facebook. I actually turned my birthday visibility off because I didn't like getting Facebook-prompted birthday greetings from "friends" I never heard from otherwise.But since you're here, Happy Birthday! 🎂 🎉

I'm a #vegan #pacifist and very distressed by #gun violence. For me, #GunControl is not enough. I want all #firearms eliminated from the face of the Earth, #police and #military included.I consider this essay on the subject, "Dare to Disarm", to be the most important thing I've ever written.https://funcrunch.medium.com/dare-to-disarm-29add7b6cc4a

@clive Some years ago, I had to force myself to stop playing #SimCity as it was too addictive. (I now play #CitiesSkylines, FWIW.)When first starting #StardewValley, I played it for the majority of my waking hours for a month solid. (Was unemployed at the time)#OxygenNotIncluded was highly addictive when I first started, but I can now play it without staying up all night.#Factorio I stopped playing pretty early on as I could tell (and was warned) that it would be highly addictive.

@internetarchive The files might only be available on Tom Lehrer's site for a limited time, but many are also on #Wikimedia Commons, which should be (more or less) permanent:https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Tom_Lehrer

@auditorymusings @clive I was just talking about this with my partner tonight. Movie trailers have changed so much over the years. They have now become their own art form, even with their own short "teaser trailers" in some cases.

@clive FYI the first link in your post goes to the wrong essay (the one about books). The friend link is correcthttps://uxdesign.cc/trying-to-design-the-next-wordle-122f2049c426

@clive You should be able to just edit the existing post without reposting, if your instance has that function enabled.

@clive Sounds like your instance admin hasn't enabled the edit option then. Or if you're using an app, maybe that's where the limitation is. See screenshot of what mine looks like on the web interface.

@anildash I would amend that to say that it's wrong to beat any person to death regardless of presumed guilt or innocence.

The agents of #WhiteSupremacy who champion #FreeSpeech (for themselves) are perfectly fine with censoring #Black voices. In fact, they insist on it. And they're getting their way.https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/ap-african-american-studies-course-watered-gop-pressure-rcna68454#BlackHistoryMonth #BlackLivesMatter #BlackMastodon

@michelamarie @clive @thinkStory @CyberpunkLibrarian If the software program(s) can still function well enough to do what's needed after 40+ years, that's impressive, and kudos to the original programmers. But running anything off of floppy disks does not seem advisable or sustainable to me.(I'm old enough to remember a time before PCs were widely available, FWIW.)
