Hi everyone, just letting you know I have a gamedev-centric alt on @lampfairy <3 Hoping to use that environment to help me focus on development stuff, so I'll post my progress and boost useful development insight there. Give me a follow if you're interested! <3
My streamer friend Jojo made a chibi of me! It came out really cute c:

Hey everyone, want to borrow ebooks from archive.org on YOUR terms?
Here's a method I came up with using Calibre, on all platforms where it's supported.
1. Install the DeACSM and DeDRM plugins into Calibre
2. In the plugin preferences, configure DeACSM and set up anonymous authorization, then export the encryption key and import it into DeDRM's ADE keys
3. Restart Calibre! This is important!
4. On archive.org, find the book you want to borrow and loan it out
5a. If you can borrow it for two weeks, do that and download it in the format you prefer
5b. If you can only borrow it for an hour or it doesn't give you a download, borrow it anyway, then copy the identifier in the metadata, add it to the following URL: https://archive.org/services/loans/loan/?action=media_url&identifier=<IDENTIFIER GOES HERE>&format=pdf&redirect=1 and download that (you can also change the format to epub or similar but it may not always be available)
6. Add the ACSM file to Calibre and it'll download it and then decrypt it for you
7. Be sure to return the book so other people can use it right away!
Happy reading!

Because I know we all need good news: the new National Forest logging plans that increased logging without any safety rails were just overturned/rejected by federal court ruling. It effectively voids the Nantahala and Pisgah Forest Plan that in particular we were really worried about and is a huge step towards a plan that truly protects these precious places.
Now let’s see if we can stop them from drilling in the Gulf! (Yeah, if you haven’t heard, screw marine protections, there is a war and we need oil so Gulf drilling is back open.)

how to make programming terrible for everyone
https://jneen.ca/posts/2026-03-27-how-to-make-programming-terrible-for-everyone/
So this week on Friday, I'll be a part of a charity relay for Trans Lifeline! Stream starts around noon and we'll raise money for 2 hours before raiding into the next person!
During the stream I want to make a trans pride alt for one of my models, it'll be fun!

since starting this, I've gotten sued by a credit card company for being unable to pay, and had to pay 700$ due to a delivery fuckup.
Please, if you can donate, it'd really help.
How (racist/sexist/whatever) harassment on Mastodon works:
1. Harasser replies to their target's post, with the reply set to "followers only", saying the most vile stuff you can imagine.
2. All the harasser's followers join in on the harassment, posting more vile stuff.
3. Nobody but the target and the harassment crew can see the vile stuff that was said.
4. Target is traumatized. Nobody else can see why.
5. Everybody says "I don't see it so it's not happening."
Warning to trans people, about bad-faith studies/surveys
If you're not in the know: Ray Blanchard is the originator of "autogynephilia," and Lisa Littman is known for using highly biased methods to try and validate "rapid onset gender dysphoria."
Don't respond to them. Tell your friends not to respond to them. Tell them to tell their friends.
my cool friend Ash achieved the impossible: ✨millennial homeownership!✨ plumbing passed inspection, and then failed, immediately and EXPENSIVELY. 🙃

Ofcom is undertaking a paid survey for people who work for companies in scope of the UK #OnlineSafetyAct. If any of y'all are running Mastodon/Akkoma/Pixelfed/etc servers and have some kind of legal entity for doing so, drop me a line and I'll make an introduction.
I'm gonna ask if that's *just* companies or if any community forum counts.
Just heard back from the #OnlineSafetyAct survey folks: they'd also like to hear from people who run informal/volunteer community sites. Anyone who runs a Mastodon instance, Pixelfed server, PHPBB forum, etc. and has any UK users.
If you'd like me to put you in touch with the survey group, feel free to DM me, or email aphyr@aphyr.com, with your name, email, and the site you run. I'll pass that on to Serrula Research, which is running the survey for Ofcom.
