Humble Bundle constantly redefining "Humble"
source post: https://blog.humblebundle.com/2021/04/23/a-note-about-sliders-and-our-bundle-pages/
in case you were unaware: Humble Bundle used to be called the Humble Indie Bundle. it was a bundle of independently developed games, and it was humble because you could pay what you want; choose what portion of the money went to the devs, charity, and Humble; and the games were DRM-free and cross-platform.
after a while, the Indie was dropped from the name as they began to start bundling games from big publishers. the cross-platform and DRM-free requirements were removed. they stopped letting you pay what you want and imposed minimum amounts on their bundles.
now, the last pillar of their definition of Humble is being dropped, as they're going to limit the choice to send a portion of purchases to charity, capping at 15%. before, you could choose to donate the full percentage to charity if you wanted a game but didn't want to support the devs, and that's not allowed now.
they're trying to spin this as improving donations to charity, but it's just a cap. and another reminder -- Humble Bundle is owned by IGN now.

food (not vegan), rotten
Today's dinner was something of a disaster but a recoverable one.
so I thought my potatoes had gone bad early and I wouldn't be able to make my usual pork curry! No, just some of them, I was able to salvage more of them.
Problem was, I discovered after cutting into my last onion that it had DEFINITELY gone capital-B Bad.
Problem was I had already trimmed and sliced the pork by that point, so I decided to just... render the fat in my instant pot instead and make the last of my macaroni and cheese. Decided at the same time to the meaty tips from cutting up the fat into a pan with some oil, water, and salt to cook that into bacon bits and add that to my dinner to make it a little more substantial. wheee
Not looking forward to taking the compost out though...
@melaniemoo charging $10 per GB? Fuck, storing that has been an order of magnitude cheaper for a decade, much less transmitting it
Fuck your ISP, fuck the FCC for letting them run this racket

George Floyd trial adjacent, +
I'm really impressed at this.
The medical examiner who said the murderous cop didn't do a murder has been found to be SO wrong that the state of Maryland is going to review all in-custody death reports that happened while he worked for them. This includes Freddie Gray and other Black men who died struggling with police.
This is one way we start to deal with systemic issues. Once people tell you who they are, go back and check shit out!
@256 sandstone was my jam back then
