Realization that Slogra and Gaibon fell to second place in my favourite yaoi boss couples after Silksong

@MuseumJoe @mos_8502 Now this I'd be happy to accept

Failing that, I always trust XFCE to stay the same at least

@mos_8502 Thankfully even NAT provides a rudimentary layer of protection and is a lot more ubiquitous than it was back then

@mos_8502 I won't fault someone for using 7, but the act of doing so is fraught with risk, so they'd better be aware of that. Speaking from personal experience, even just connecting a Windows 2000 system to the open internet in the days of XP turned into a nuke-and-pave situation in seconds

@trysdyn god, to live in a world where this kind of shit doesn't happen. I'm glad you found folks who legitimately care though

@trysdyn You'd think they'd be wary to keep doing this stuff but apparently we need another Year of Luigi

Silly crossover fics spawned from dreams that nobody else in their right mind would ever write? Let's go

@adhemara @amin I made my profile and set up the project! writingmonth.org/~elfi/

It seems the synopsis for Fugue of Flealia doesn't show up yet, so here it is if you're curious: "After an airship attack drops the Taranis into the Sea of Clouds, Malt Marzipan awakens in a strange subterranean land where his golden fur earns him some awkward associations."

@link So how's that 30% vibe coding working out for you, Microsoft? Oh. How sad.

So over on dice camp I mentioned the other day that I'd noticed there is now on the market from a few sources a d16. To which my thought was then, "That's nice, but if it's a d16 it should be available numbered 1 through F to roll hexadecimal values for games like Traveler." Friends, I should not have doubted the dice makers. I only see one offering it, but you can get hexadecimal dice. My inner dice dragon is demanding I get some for its dice hoard.

@amin I think I might jump on this! I've got a silly crossover fic I've barely started and I could use an excuse to just bang it out over November and see how far I go

Thanks for stepping up after NNWM's spectacular implosion!

Seems my quassel VPS detonated catastrophically, and I never migrated my remote backup setup from my old desktop.

Mostly water under the bridge at this point after I shut down Clever Pun, but I really hope my old correspondences with my mom are still backed up...

Three days until November!

If you were planning on doing #NaNoWriMo or have in the past, you may have just recently found out that the organization officially closed down earlier this year.

With amazingly good timing, I actually launched my own alternative site a year ago, #WritingMonth:

https://writingmonth.org

Writing Month allows you to set your own goal with various types and tracking method and work in any month while placing a strong emphasis on community and writing with your buddies. Feature development is a little slow as I'm currently finishing up my senior year of uni (🤞) but y'all's community support has been fantastic and I know things will only get better from here.

If you'd like to write a bit with us this November—with whatever goal you find feasible—I'd encourage you to give it a try! Feel free to send me a buddy request: https://writingmonth.org/~amin/

(Boosts are very welcome.)
