@freemo they gave me 20 images in a format that required special software I forgot about and I turned them into an animation.

Ahh more harassment for talking about the worsening abuse I have had to undergo regarding my disability and treatment (or lack there of) in the USA.

@freemo On a platform designed with commenting on strangers posts as a core function no less.

I always enhoy the irony of someone complaining that a **stranger** had a comment on a post they made publicly.... to an internet full of strangers.

New diet plan: I can eat anything I want. The only rule is whatever I eat has to be covered in a generous amount of ghost pepper... the rest will sort itself out.

@freemo Unity isn't selling to my customers; I am. If Unity was selling to my customers, they'd get money from the customer for each Unity runtime license sold. Instead, they're demanding money from developers for each developer game installed. The difference is that if a consumer has three built-with-Unity games installed on their system, Unity would get one royalty if they were the seller, but they get three royalties if the developers are the sellers.... Then they get three more royalties when that player needs a new computer and reinstalls those games, even though the developers did not get additional revenue.

Unity has always charged a per-seat subscription for the use of the editor software. As long as they have been a company, rights to redistribute the runtime was offered free to anyone who had a valid license to the editor. Because the editor is built on the runtime and is useless without it.

No other game engine that I know of charges per-install, and very few APIs do.

This also opens up channels for abuse. Don't like a game company? You don't have to review bomb them anymore, you can just start a campaign to reinstall their game over and over to financially ruin them.

Plus you have to wonder what kind of spyware is being included to tally these charges up.

The whole thing is ugly top-to-bottom.

I've accidentally gone vegan a few times because I didn't have enough money for normal food, but when I had the money I went out and bought meat.

When I don't eat meat I feel kind of sick, I not sure why.

We got Trump because HRC assumed like it was "her turn" and campaigned like a spoiled brat. We got Trump because too many people in this country felt like they were ignored and screwing over the political system was their only outlet. We got Trump because republican voters, even after seeing what a POS Trump was listed when their party told them "Politics is a team sport." and "Voting is like public transits; if there is not a candidate that gets you exactly where you want to go take the one that get you closest."

We are heading towards getting Trump again because Biden and the Dems didn't learn anything from 2016 because their minds were too clouded by winning the popular vote, but loosing the election and crying about third party candidates. Democrats cannot admit the reasons they actually lost and it is why they stand a very good chance of loosing to the Orange Monstrosity again.

Can people please stop calling it "The leaning tower of Pisa"... its supposed to be "The leaning tower of Pizza"... come on people its in italy!

Keep the three bars at the same length!

@freemo Same here (though I didn't have that many followers). Once in a while someone sends me a DM and then I tell them that now I'm here. Very few of them moved, or even made a foothold here.

I used to check in on twitter once a week or so just to see my notifications and if anyone reached out to me to respond... I have a few thousand followers and would get a few notifications a week so it was worth the effort.

Since musk took over my notifications and declined to a crawl. Now week after week I have consistently no notifications. As a result I check my twitter less and less and even find myself just closing the tab and forgetting about it for long periods.

Im pretty sure im not the only one and twitter is quickly dieing.

My calander tells me the first day of "Hispanic Heritage Month" is september 15th.... umm... thats not ... huh?

@freemo abuse is a big issue. Less now than 40 years ago but changing medical culture takes time. To the consternation of some senior clinicians (‘they aren’t learning anything useful like we did”) our medical students now spend time training with actor patients. A start but only that and one problem is how we select for entry into medicine. - empathy is well down the list.
