im consistently surprised by how terrible people are at taking photos of their camera lenses for second hand listings... like... you're a photographer... this is like, your thing

I can't stop thinking about the statement "I don't dream of owning a house" when it comes to housing justice and housing futures. It's also not fair to assume that everyone's dream is to own a house. A future where everyone owns a house is completely unsustainable. I've been thinking about how to apply this rhetoric to other scenarios and what potential alternatives that center QTBIPOC voices. It has me thinking about other types of futurism where what we're told supposed to want is not what I want at all. Like, "I don't dream of AI servants".

re: rant, tech politics 

@hazelnot Necrocomputing is like the evil little brother of retrocomputing; where it is no longer just about personally enjoying old or nostalgic stuff, but about actually claiming that it is superior to anything newer, that it could not possibly be improved upon, and that we should all go back to whatever the old thing is.

There's generally (at least) a significant amount of ableism and classism involved in the rationale, such as declaring modern accessibility features to be 'bloat'.

rant, tech politics 

My problem with the software development community is that it's like 95% people who will do whatever a tech company with slick marketing says is right, and 5% people who rebel against the status quo but for the wrong reasons so they never get anything done.

Why is it so difficult to find people who actually approach tech intersectionally?

Hawthorne, Lewisburg, and Brick Church Long Lines tower sites from last Sunday (I also visited Shelbyville and Thach but their microwave horns seem to have been removed D:)

basically that with the standard plunger design, you need the space in the back for the fully extended plunger arm, so that's why the cheap nerf blasters use that same arm to pull back, instead of a sliding grip

heh, it's kinda neat designing this nerf blaster and realizing why they made certain design decisions in their blaster types

i guess having some pre-paid tickets left on my card should help
