⚪ the lynne creacher @lynnesbian@fedi.lynnesbian.space

the most important thing i did in the month long break was making this comic

so uh if you think 2019 lynne makes bad programs

this was 2015 lynne's assignment for IPT

exclusive pecha gaming footage

quadrophonic CD

i've owned a switch for over two years and only just now did i learn that you can hold down the home button on the pro controller or joycon to wake it from sleep

this whole time i've been getting up to press the power button like a fool

(before you mention the "PHP parse error": it's intentional, lynnesbian.space doesn't even use PHP)

you could criticise the way i design websites as all having a very samey lightweight, flat, clinical, modern look to them

well NOT ANYMORE! https://lynnesbian.space/retro.html

i've updated my site to work better on mobile devices!

it's not perfect, but it's mine

i swear if new horizons tells me "this essential service will be closed for the entirety of tomorrow" one more time

i can only assume that they use magnet links because http links can go down but torrents are Truly Invincible

but if you're worried about the link going down (which it has) why not just provide a string like "X11" or the SPDX identifier or something, and then there isn't a link to go down in the first place

one of the ways that libreJS allows you to annotate your files with a license is by providing a magnet link to the license you want to use

however, it has to be one of the magnet links from a list that is hardcoded into libreJS

also the x11 license magnet link has zero peers, at least as far as i can tell for leaving it active for several hours

you're welcome to try loading it if you want to: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:5305d91886084f776adcf57509a648432709a7c7&dn=x11.txt

opengraph is cool because it allows you to add information to "describe" websites to computers, allowing for nice markup and preview

opengraph sucks because the website has been in an archived github repo for five years, there exists a gender form that is mandated to only be "male" or "female", the profile field requires that you have a first and last name (but doesn't allow for a middle name??), the documentation is abysmal, the majority of the links given on the website don't work, and facebook made it

i would hate to be a doctor

diagnosing linux errors with messages like "IRQ [764.293] initialization dbus failed: socket unix://tmp/assd pam authentication blocked" is bad enough, but doctors have to deal with shit like "whenever i sneeze i get a sharp pain in my shoulder but only if i'm lying down"

hold the fuck on. you're saying that google, the advertising company that pioneered the current wave of extracting as much "harmless" data from everyone as possible in order to more effectively market toothpaste to people based on racial profiling, and exists solely due to profits from said advertising... doesn't value my privacy

the current argument is that you don't buy video game 64, you buy a license to use video game 64 privately for all eternity huge asterisk

okay but, why is that only true for digital and not physical, the only difference is that i don't have a piece of plastic to hold

how come we've all just accepted that you can't trade or give someone digital games unless you specifically buy them for that person

i think steam uses the analogy "you wouldn't give someone a gift you've already opened" and uh yes i would, is valve not aware of the term "second hand"

i don't want so many of my digital games anymore, why can't i give them to someone who does

diabetics should NOT be allowed to compete in sports. they take insulin externally, which unfairly puts them in the "able to not die" class. these people are making changes to their bodies with drugs that enhance their performance and we just allow that? granted, everyone else has similar amounts of insulin in their bodies too, but theirs is natural which is different. and don't even get me started on the scum who take antidepressants to give themselves an unfair mental advantage. you're either born with the right pancreas or you're not allowed to play sports. it's your own fault for choosing to be diabetic. unrelated but why do many trans people feel like society unfairly discriminates against them

remember how it felt like every single game on the nintendo 64 was called Video Game 64 and we all make fun of that now

now we have skyrim vr and doom vfr and la noire vr case files and fallout 4 vr and batman arkham vr and

bot that looks for posts containing the phrase "it's always sunny in philadelphia" and replies with the current forecast for philadelphia if it's not currently sunny

it's so easy not to and yet so many people insist on doing it despite how shitty it is

this isn't about anything in specific it's just a general statement
