I’ve had several people tell me they can’t see my avatar lately, this is a federation bug.

A planned higher VAT on #books in the #Netherlands hinders access to research.

The planned increase in the #VAT rate on books and #scholarly #information resources in the Netherlands from 9% to 21% will have a major impact on the #accessibility of #HigherEducation.

#Dutch #UniversityLibraries and the National Library of the Netherlands support http://geenhogerebtw.nl and http://boekenpetitie.nl.

We encourage everyone interested to sign these petitions.

Hey y'all! so last year on #Juneteenth I started a lil #reparations thread. Some racist assholes took issue with that...

So this year I'll be making multiple threads throughout the month! It's now June where I am so I'm eager to get started.

Black folks, reply w/ your cashapp venmo ko-fi etc etc if you like.

Other folks, (especially if you're benefitting from the federal holiday) throw them coins if you got the means and *boost replies in the thread for circulation*

:)

*pls boost*

I wrote about SNES audio driver stuff; it's mostly me rambling but maybe it's interesting to get insight on the state of SNES dev things?

I like the SNES a lot and I want to keep making a lot of stuff for it and keep contributing to a game library I like a lot.

A friend just pointed out:

"ADHD creates impulse control issues and, consequently, advertising takes advantage of a disability.  Ergo, ad blockers are assistive devices and interfering with their operation for commercial gain constitutes a willful violation of the ADA."

Let’s do this.

If people didn't want me to love the monsters, then they shouldn't have made the monsters relatable to me in ways the protagonists were not.

okay so some of you might have seen that Palmer Luckey has launched his own Gameboy clone, an FPGA console called the ModRetro Chromatic. you may remember another FPGA Gameboy, the Analogue Pocket, a console i own and greatly enjoy and endorse.

for those who dont know, Palmer Luckey (in increasing badness):

at one point worked for Facebook
donates vast sums of money to Trump
founded Anduril, a war drone company

that alone should be reason enough to never touch this thing.

unfortunately, the thing also includes an officially licensed Tetris game. so i wanted to provide some alternatives to people who were interested in playing a "modern" tetris on a portable device. dont even pirate the rom of it, play these instead.

first off, you dont need an FPGA like this or the Analogue Pocket, you can get a comfy emulator device for a sixth of the cost that supports more consoles. dont spend money you dont have.
the best gameboy tetris is the homebrew clone Apotris. it is by far the most extensive in feature set and i play it daily. i dont care for the default visual settings but the customization is incredible. https://akouzoukos.com/apotris
if you have a soft spot for the old gameboy tetris of yore, theres Rosy Retrospection, a mod that brings several modern conveniences while keeping the original spirit. https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/5813/
it also has a color version. https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/8259/

please do not give this monster money, and do not give his tetris the time of day. fan projects deserve your attention more than a warmonger's vanity project.

White I found the black comedic humor effective, consider it a warning if you have a non-Enterprise VMware use case (e.g. Fusion for personal use) and/or a low bullshit tolerance:
