@sodiboo death to the other guys (except maybe advanced security) though

@sodiboo neat!

old news but its kinda funny

mooom pjb ate the auth servers

@ellis i define art two ways, tbh. the “harder” definition being that art is something that was intentionally created to be created, so things like garbage don’t count, and which was created to communicate something; could be anything, such as “this is a tree.” however i don’t think that really reaches the core of what art is. the core being the more abstract thing you articulated here, that art is a feeling, and is created through people appreciating it as art, and dies when people no longer do. it’s circular but it’s also the best explanation i think possible

Elon Musk being personally culpable for the spread of flesh-eating screwworm into the USA is so wild. Even just typing that out feels like describing a golden-age comics plot but no, it's true, he did that.

@detondev
So, flesh-eating screwworm has recently spread from Central America to Mexico and finally to Texas, which is its first sighting in the States since 1966. Previously it was contained in Panama due to a multi billion dollar effort by the USDA to drop sterile flies that would control population growth. Said control program started to lose its grip during the 2020's but not in a way that insured it would arrive in the states, that *was* until Musk's DOGE massively cut USDA's workforce and budget, which set the stage for it to reach the southern US and thus wreak havoc on the already strained cattle industry.

@sodiboo oh so i was exactly right. github actions is similar too, right?

@AppleAmps hi

@sodiboo idrk what dependabot really is on the inside though. maybe i’m wrong

@sodiboo dependabot doesn’t even seem that bad but. it paints a certain picture when dependabot isn’t the only bot he’s depending on

software developed by a guy and his 7 robot friends

@lena @AppleAmps like literally you bend space and then tile on that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_geometry

@breaadyboy you aren’t that but when you are vaguely like that it’s fine because you’re cute

@AppleAmps like hexagons are, as the kids might say, goated because they tile and all of their adjacent tiles are equally far away from each other. but they come with the compromise that you have to choose between being able to move directly vertically or moving directly horizontally. but you can have your cake and eat it too. if you just bend space so that you can perfectly tile octagons, then you get everything. with the compromise that directions don’t actually exist as you knew them anymore. which is fair imo

@AppleAmps <- is so desperate for games with tiling octagons that she will bend space to get it

@breaadyboy webp isn’t bad but it just makes me mourn jpegxl. killed at google’s own hands. except maybe not killed. except maybe killed

@AppleAmps i’m just waiting for hyperbolic chess with tiled octagons to come out
