Lest we forget, Carmack enabled Meta to jumpstart their bullshit VR/spayware headsets. He could have been a hero for gamers, but we know that $$$ is king.

I’m doing my part on Mastodon to spread the word. If you’re on there, boost my post or start up your own.

Wouldn’t that be some crazy shit? I mean… this timeline is not following any logic, so this could probably be a reality…

Agreed. Then dye it some bright color to really distance yourself from the villain look

As a bald man myself, I can not speak to their specific Baldman tribe.

I just left this comment, might be an alternative for you: https://programming.dev/comment/25901788

Same. Someone on Mastodon gave praises to https://upcloud.com/. They’re also on Masto @upcloud@glitchy.upcloud.world

Their VPS plans look decent: https://upcloud.com/global/products/cloud-servers/#plans

This cute little guy kinda reminds me of meatwad from Aqua Teen Hunger Force

I like how the /s wasn’t even necessary on this.

Bye Felicia

And Clippy 2.0… I mean, Copilot

Hello, would you be interested in an exciting career as a writer at Wall Street Journal?

Kumquat

Because it’s fun to say

Considering how long this game has been out, that 100 hours gets stretched over a long time.

I like how God decided to ragequit The Sims game he was playing.

Ah yes, dansup, aka the Fediverse superstar who cranks out such hits as “VAGUE FEATURE is Coming Soon”, and “The rarely updated official app for Pixelfed/Loops is going to get updated soon!”. Both of those are from the album" I insist on gatekeeping outside developers from contributing".

I’ve interacted with him as a fellow developer of the same stack he uses, and I have always appreciated where his heart is at regarding the fedi. But, the track record of quality work suffers from chasing shiny objects, and absolute spaghetti code.

Also, I’m going to be blunt in saying this; he apes existing ideas (insta, TikTok), gives them a quasi corpo social platform facade with the goal to be welcoming to the refugees who jump the fences.

This SSO thing is the antithesis of decentralization and the spirit of digital sovereignty. Literally handing Google more user data for the sake of fedi adoption via SSO is mind boggling. How many people here left big tech because of the blatant surveillance state that’s been built?

I keep trying to support his work, but I’m killing my Pixelfed and Loops accounts.

Damn, this guy seems all about the healthy lifestyle.

Gaslighting. Pure And simple. Which, is and has always been, one of the most disgusting tactics an abuser deploys for self-serving reasons.

I fucking hate Medium almost as much as I hate the tech industry’s disregard to earning our consent through honesty.

Or user privacy.

Or valuing their own workers.

Or how to respectfully be a part of the F/OSS ecosystem.

Or humanity’s desire to not live in a pollution stream from their AI processing centers (they’re not really “data centers”).

Or that we all wish LinkedIn would self-destruct under the weight of its own bullshit, and magically blink itself out of existence.
