I have a spreadsheet full of #Steam #game keys (all legit!) and I'm giving away.

I'm *not* doing this to get new followers. You DON'T need to follow me to get a key. This is about generosity when the world could really use some.

The only thing I ask is you follow the Wheaton rule: "Don't be a dick".

07/07/24: Finally got around to updating the keylist (and responding to some folks I'd missed). Added a few new keys too. It's still going. I guess it's permanent now?

To avoid keyfarmers and resellers, I have some guidelines, though.

1. No new accounts. Sorry. You've got to have been here on Mastodon & obviously human; ie. no keyfarmers (If I don't know you, I'm checking profiles).

2. One game per person; please pick your top three preferred games, in case your first preference is already gone. First in, first served, I go through PMs in the order that they're received - see below.

3. *Private Mention* me with the game number *AND* name, in order of preference. (Web: Profile > Three Dots > Privately Mention...), your app may vary.

I cannot reiterate this enough. You *must* -->PM<-- your request (consider this the "Brown M&Ms" clause).

4. "When can I ask for another key?" Minimum of 2 months between requests.

Colour coded legend on the spreadsheet. My thanks to the following generous folks who've donated extra keys:

@tojosan
@miga
@hypolite
@desiree
@artbol

@beric
@Krikket
@WearsHats

Game listed multiple times = multiple keys.

FAQ:
Q: "Can I donate keys?"
A: Not at the moment. I've had multiple generous donations, and I need to pause on accepting any further donations at this time.

If you don't mind boosting this post; this is my small way of trying to make the world & Mastodon a nicer place to be.

If you want to use it, as well, you can find a zip-file with all the used images and splash screen along with a short info txt in a zip-file here:

drive.filen.io/d/42a97f9f-581a

Libbie art done by Tyson Tan: tysontan.com
Splash screen is LibreOffice's original splash screen with Libbie tacked on.

More info on all that in the readme file. Tyson Tan's Libbieart is licenced under CC0 licence, but I have no clue about the original splash screen, so, just for personal use unless you know better. 😅

I said everything is better with a mascot, right? 😁

I learned that Tyson Tan, the artist that, among other things, did the KDE and Krita mascot, also designed a mascot, Libbie, for LibreOffice, but the mascot contest was cancelled because stuff wasn't "professional enough" or something. BUT all his art was available, thus, I took inspiration by this (outdated) project github.com/sdomi/libbieoffice and set my own Libbie Splash & Icons with his artwork.

Download and info in reply.

Mildly lewd, dergn 

One downside to teaching your kobolds how to undo your bra is that at some point they'll remove and run off with it while you're still using it

One nice thing about becoming a dragon is that if I'm too stiff and sore to take my bra off, I can ask my kobolds to do it for me and I can reward them with soft squishy cuddles

If you host a #GitLab instance, you should update it as soon as possible. There's a critical security update, including a fix for "Account Takeover via password reset without user interactions". Oopsie.

US folks can get all Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels in a humble bundle for $18, which is great. Except you gotta trudge through Adobe DRM to extract the actual books so you can load them on your device. Here's how I did it--mwl.io/archives/23343

Bundle at humblebundle.com/books/terry-p

[ETA: Note I said "US." HarperCollins does not have the rights to sell Pratchett's books outside the US. In the old days, authors licensed books to publishers based on who could print and sell them in each country. Those contracts are still in effect. That's how the big publishing business works.]

AI training at work 

I *did* kind of send my coworkers off the deep end by quietly editing the AI base instruction set so that every technical answer provided would be compared to Star Wars

bot: “Like a Jedi’s lightsaber, a Personal Access Token—“
coworker: WHY is it DOING that

Friend of mine laments on discord that a lot of the people she followed on Mastodon left and it's mostly reply guys interacting with her
Someone reply guys on her because she said Mastodon and not fedi in general
