ACAB, good news from Georgia 

"In essence, the Georgia Supreme Court ruled that if police perform an unlawful arrest, the person being arrested can use a proportionate amount of force against the police, including damaging property, to resist and avoid this unlawful arrest."

I have encountered more image descriptions on Mastodon in 24 hours than I have in Twitter in a couple of years. Seriously. I'm not exaggerating.
As a blind person, this means a lot to me. If you read this and you describe your images, thank you so, so, so much on behalf of all of us. If you don't, now you know you'll be helping random Internet strangers make sense of your posts by typing in a few more words than usual.

Bad sleep, tarot, overwork, python, git 

Hi hello, I have a meeting in six hours and I haven't slept yet. But! Tonight I re-implemented the basics for my tarot reading generator and made some good steps towards getting it running as a little app on a raspi with a touch screen! And, the whole thing talks to a receipt printer, and it's on git.

Next up is installing the dependencies on the pi, being kinder to the folks hosting my code rn (I haven't written an ignore file yet...), and building a card interpretation dictionary and printing that alongside the card image.

But hey, I'd put this part off forever, so yay for doing the first step. It's hosted here, if you want to read. It's a lot of sample code still floating around. giit.cyberia.club/~starless/ta

So, someone brought their parrot as a collaborator to an online music circle and I have not been this awed in a long time.

Around March 30 of this year, someone on Mastodon posted some art they had for sale. There was a piece I really liked and wanted to get when I had some extra cash.

I thought I bookmarked the toot, but maybe I didn't. And maybe it's been deleted. But I can't remember now who the artist was.

If I attach a photo of the painting, would you all boost it?

And if it's still for sale, would the artist kindly DM me? :)

Thanks!!

Every so often, I want to boost a toot, but said toot is not well CW'd.

Is there an easy way for me to boost a toot and add a content warning? When you're in this situation, what do you do?

Pretty wild how common the "your library needs to reinvent wheels at least 500 lines worth or else it's BAD" mentality still is, you'd think it's obvious that small dependencies are the perfect 'do one thing, do it well' philosophy...

Without looking it up, how much RAM do you think the Atari 2600 has? I'm really curious how much people ballpark, and how far off they are, so please boost and don't post the reply in the answers.
