A make-a-long for pride month! To participate use the hashtag #PrideMakealong . Follow @PrideMakealong for weekly prompt reminders and boosts from the community. (Tag us if you'd like to be boosted!)
The rules:
1. Be Queer.
2. Make something!
"Make" here is really open: do fiber arts, write a story, bake a cake, design a circuit board, take photos, whatever works for you. It can be new work or old.
If you're an ally or stealthy or just want to do more, you can also...
3. Support queer businesses and creatives by using supplies/designs/inspiration from them and telling us about them. Links appreciated!
Inspired by #Fiberuary on Mastodon and the #QuietQueerCraftalong elsewhere.

hey look, an actually useful orange-site comment, about HP ink cartridge hardware hacking
"Put a resistor, about 1kohm, in the power line to the security chip on the cartridge.
Now, whenever the printer tries to read data from the chip, it works. Whenever it tries to record data to the chip (for example, marking the cartridge as empty), that uses more power, and the memory chip doesn't respond.
Amazingly, the whole setup just works and prints forever, saying the cartridges are always full... "
nintendo's really having a blast telling everyone to pirate their games! so far in the past couple of months, nintendo has:
- shut down the eshop for wii u/3ds
- issued a DMCA to lockpickRCM, preventing switch owners from legally obtaining keys needed for emulation (and it caused a switch emulator to shut down due to fears they'd be DMCA'd too)
- sent a new 3DS update that blocked all free methods of homebrewing the console
- and just recently, they told steam to take down the dolphin emulator
remember: pirating nintendo games is good.
(edit: fix'd some info!)
Edit: Looks like the account has gotten banned.
Hello fellow fedi admins
In case you needed yet another reason to block newsie.social, and every other site that Jeff runs, newsie.social has now decided that platforming far-right hate is appropriate:
i did a funny
nintendo told steam to remove dolphin from their store, allegedly due to it's hardcoded inclusion of the wii common key
so here's a flag that represents the wii's common key, in hexadecimal form :)
EDIT: oops inkscape fucked it up in the export, i fixed it now lol
EDIT 2: fix'd info, everyone was wrong apparantly! doesn't change much but still

Heads up fellow #FediAdmin, do not enable the content cache retention period feature in mastodon. It is worded terribly and actually irreversibly deletes users’ boosts, faves and bookmarks by clearing out remote posts regardless of whether they’ve been interacted with. Huge loss.
I need some Black gamer friends, and disabled ones. There any gamers around? I'm disabled, an introvert, and I have friends, but most of them aren't gamers or don't play the games I do. Even if I was gung ho about going out, a lot of them live too far, I don't drive, and all of us lack money. I'm really lonely and feeling insecure today. Trying not to smother my sis and husband...
