PSA: if you have an autistic friend that you're making any sort of arrangement with, PLEASE for all that is holy, give them *clear fucking answers!* Solid. Direct. Answers. I mean "yes," "no" "that won't work," etc. Solid. Fucking. Answers. Clear cut. Direct. Concrete. If you can't give one say "I need more time to decide," followed by actually following up with aforementioned solid answers.
I can't tell you how much it tears me apart getting "maybe" or "that could work," or "I'm not sure" and never getting a concrete "yes" or "no." An important fact about autism is that we often can't or struggle greatly to read between the lines and these slippery non-answers leave me and I'd wager many other autistic people guessing. Yet so often it would be less painful to rip my own fucking teeth out than it would be to get solid answers out of anybody these days and it makes me wanna scream! I'm begging you all, PLEASE give us solid answers... #autism #actuallyautistic
#artfight attack for Blanc-Author!
I wasn't quite happy with my original drawing so I started to paint over it... then I had to paint the whole cat ... then I added a painted background..
I'm happy with how it looks now but oh boy that was a lot of time spend on this tiny friendly fire :'D
Susie Green has co-founded a new healthcare service for trans folk of all ages in the UK called Anne Health 
It went live officially from the date of Trans Pride Brighton (20th July 2024), from what we've been told 
Unlike GenderGP, which has sadly fired a lot of staff and replaced them with "AI" chatbots, Anne Health has commited to hiring qualified individuals who care and are knowledgeable about the best trans healthcare practices possible 
Anne Health is planning to operating as a non-profit, and will take donations to help offer services to those who cannot afford the fees, so you can donate to them.
And they're open to shared care agreements with any trans friendly GPs willing to work with them.
Boosts very much welcomed 
and please do share the word with family, friends, and loved ones

Proposal for a new Linux special file:
/dev/scream
It's like /dev/zero, but it's endless stream of the letter 'a', with an occasional capital 'A' at a random frequency.

oh wow. Just learned that Ms. Pac-Man uses the same random number generation routine as Pac-Man, but it generates different numbers.
The reason? it uses the first 2kb of its own ROM as the entropy for the randomness, and the two games have slightly different code in the first 2kb, thus different random numbers
Wondering how Ms. Pac-Man's randomness is different than the original Pac-Man's? It's all explained right here.LINKSSupport the channel on Patreon: https://w...YouTube
didn't everyone just used to read bits of ROM for RNG back in the 8-bit days?
Nobody would notice in your daft Vic 20 game that the RNG was skewed towards 6502 opcodes so it was perfectly good enough!
This happens every day.
Both my cat and I both prefer the big comfy office chair. If my cat gets to it first, I end up sitting on a tiny stool because I'm unwilling to disturb my cat.
However, my cat prefers my lap over the chair, so he inevitably jumps onto my lap.
Now, I can't stand and neither of us get the comfy chair, even though I would prefer it for comfort, and my cat would prefer to be in a higher spot on my lap.
In game theory, this is known as a Nash equilibrium, where no player benefits from changing things, resulting in everyone locked in place (even if there's a better overall strategy that benefits everyone).
"Terrible things are happening outside. At any time of night and day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes... Families are torn apart: men, women and children are separated. Children come home from school to find their parents have disappeared.”
- Anne Frank
Phone is like:
"Hey! We notice you're not backing your stuff (photos and documents and stuff) up to Google Drive / Google Photos...."
And I'm like:
"Correct."
What?? It's the dragon's birthday?? 
Yeah.. I've finally got a 2 on the front. (I'm 20 now.)
Companies contract out small parts manufacturing, then big parts, then engineering and design, and only retain a "people and culture" organization that sits far from any factory, and before you know it you have two astronauts stranded in space and windows blowing our of planes because no one feels responsible for your overall product anymore.
IN-SOURCE YOUR ENGINEERING AND MANUFACTURING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also, in-source your janitorial staff, in-source the people making food at the canteen, in-source your receptionist, in-source your IT support.
Every person working for a company should be working for that company.
You will have mid-term gains with outsourcing some functions, but in the long term, you will pay.
Stop listening to McKinsey telling you to outsource all that stuff. Their very business model relies on you outsourcing your brains. Ignore them.
