very minor #GoodNews: The coming new standard font for MS Word, named Aptos, will have I and l looking different from each other...

Mastodon tip for noobs and others - if you're reading a long thread on the web view, and the toots are behind Content Warnings you don't have to tap Show More on every toot. Open the thread up and look for an eye button at the top of the column. It will have a line through it. Tap that to open all the CWs in the thread.

I can't say if this feature is in any of the various apps people may be using, but it's certainly worth looking for.

if i had a nickel for every anti-cheat vendor whom implemented functionality in their driver to elevate the calling usermode process to PP/PPL, i would have two nickels. which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice

kernel-mode anticheat is malware.

Idea: bot that monitors lightningmaps.org and sends you a notification when there is lightning x distance from your location

"A person is disabled not by their impairment, but by the failure of their environment to accommodate their needs. In other words, disability results not from autism itself but instead from living in a society which tends to be physically, socially, and emotionally inhospitable towards autistic people."

If anyone knows of #freecad communities that don't support illegal gun manufacturing I'd be interested

Its both etymologically valid and extremely confusing to refer to same sex marriages as cis and straight ones as trans

Om het gigantische aantal fraudeurs in nederland op te sporen (het waren er slechts 580) zijn de beginselen van de privacywet overtreden.

Deze overheid is zó geobsedeerd met fraude dat ze keer op keer zelf de fraudeurs blijken te zijn. https://nos.nl/l/2482915

Al jaren vindt er een kaalslag plaats op het OV. Treinen worden drukker, kaartjes duurder en in het streekvervoer verdwijnen steeds meer lijnen. Kun je het openbaar vervoer wel openbaar noemen als niet iedereen er gelijkwaardig toegang tot heeft? De afbraak van het openbaar vervoer moet stoppen. Daarom starten wij dit burgerinitiatief! Het OV moet publiek, gratis en toegankelijk. Stop de asociale prijsstijgingen en teken het burgerinitiatief! #OpenbaarVervoer https://campagnes.degoedezaak.org/campaigns/burgerinitiatief-openbaar-vervoer?utm_campaign=xNRaJYKVbk&utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=share

I'm going to say this right away guys: Referencing is *NOT* bad in art, nor it's "cheating". Quite the opposite, its *mandatory* if you want your art to be good.

Reference, reference, reference. Always, every time you can. Believe me, your art will start improving *massively* once you start doing it. Every single professional artist will tell you they use references for their stuff.

Arting isn't a memory test or a memory competition. You can't draw well what you can't see.

cishet neurotypicals will be tied up in a basement, see someone else outside who isn't tied up, diagnose them with "not tied up in a basement disorder", then take a minute to be grateful that they don't have "not tied up in a basement disorder"
