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--https://mwl.io/archives/23343

[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
Reply guy suggests she moves instances to find her friends again
My guy, she said her friends *left*, and also she's on her 7th instance

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
Bruh...
also shout out to privacy.com, whose virtual credit cards mean that I could do this without giving these assholes my real credit card number
I ordered a refurbed steam deck with some money from the holidays and selling some old belongings, I am intensely giddy

My friend shared this with me and I absolutely must share with you all in tandem.

Boost if:
- You're a gorgeous fierce mythological creature who bites the heads off fascists
and/or
- You're up at this hour
No one will ever know which applies to you!! Unless they both apply. Then, well, that's on you. ;3

@Zennistrad I was reminded that Ebot's Rock is a thing that exists in Final Fantasy VI, and is tied to Strago and Relm's story. Somehow I can't seem to find fics that take this to its logical conclusion and put Relm in as the fallen child
slang psa, misogynistic hate campaign, cultural appropriation
for anyone who doesn't know, the expressing-approval-of-someone's-politics sense of "based" was popularized by white supremacist Gamergaters after they appropriated it from AAVE: https://www.dictionary.com/e/slang/based/
anyone who does know and says it anyway, eat shit and die

If you dress and behave nicely enough, nobody will hassle you for being a lamp post.
y'all know that if you want your posts to spread you should #AltText your images, right?
both because
- some people don't boost uncaptioned images as a principle, and I highly doubt there's anyone doing the opposite, so you're missing some boosts
but also because
- #Mastodon's v4.2 search also works with Alt Text, so if you have search enabled for your account you'll perform better in searches if you caption.
