Every YouTube video is either "all of science and the entire history of the world explained (5:41)" or "how player two's controller inputs are processed on level six of this japan-only game boy advance game that was only available free with a particular brand of cereal for two weeks in one store (2:37:21)"

jack dorsey deleted his bluesky account, lol

(for anyone who hasn't been following, he's expressed a strong favour of nostr in the past, and is distancing himself from bluesky)

I know I'm a day late on the latest techdrama, but I forgot to give my crunkly hot take on the Unity pricing update (as a thoughtfluencer).

PROPRIETARY FAGS BTFO. My personal favorite part is in their Q&A they say that "WebGL" counts, but without being any more specific that that. This means in the worst interpretation every single time someone refreshes your webapp you can be charged up to 20 US cents.

How else do you count a WASM/WebGL "installation", you don't install it, it just loads directly into the browser.

A game that asks an important question: "What if Myst was bad, and all puzzles relied exclusively on looking stuff up in the Bible?" 🤔

So, big news yesterday. I'm appalled at the impact this will have on the #Unity ecosystem, and #gamedev at large. There's just no way this can lead to anything good for anyone.

#GodotEngine is getting a lot of positive attention in reaction, so I want to address a few things. 🧵

Fuck it. #YOLO

#Bluesky continues to be entirely non-responsive to the numerous security vulnerabilities I've reported to them, so I spent the evening writing up a nice README and a framework with exploit modules, and just made it all public.

Have fun.

Since I've seen a lot of chatter about people switching to #Firefox as Google ramps up the enshitification of #Chrome, let me tell you about a killer feature for people who (a) need multiple accounts on the same websites (eg. devs) or specifically (b) have to use multiple Google accounts.

Firefox has an official addon called Multi Account Containers that lets you trivially set up color coded tabs that have separate sets of cookies. Log into your dev account in one, and your test account in another. Log into your personal #gmail in one and have another tab next to it with your work Gmail. I'm actually not signed in to any Google accounts in most my tabs, I just have containers for the specific tasks I do on Google products.

It'll take you 30 seconds to set up.

Whenever I talk about dumb NPM packages, I always see people missing the point, blaming it on web developers, the tooling, or NPM itself, these are just symptoms

Packages like isOdd, leftpad, etc only exist because JS is fucked, it's always been fucked and will never be unfucked

in the late 90s, steve ballmer snorted a line of cocaine, went on stage, and screamed about microsoft windows completely drenched in sweat, and every fortune 500 guy in the audience was like "my company needs this product". and that's why every computer on the planet right now is dogshit to use
