One single bitcoin transaction now emits 325kg CO2, more than shipping a ton of gold round the world... !

You can tell the maker of this isn't a hacker because they use a mouse

I attempted to hack into Egardo's mainframe. Luckily, my webcam was on and it captured the whole thing. Subscribe and/or support me on Kofi: https://ko-fi.co...www.youtube.com
@tjrobotham I mean, if you use a real window manager, I might agree that there's no good context. But many people use window managers made by sadists
@HippyWizard I meant more like there's a bunch of surprisingly nicer ways to point-and-click than mice (although I think that trackpads manage to be the outlier of somehow being worse)

Got kind of freaked out about how popular this one was getting, and I didn't really do a good job of attributing it. So here it is again.

This shit is why I was *livid* when The Stream of Many Eyes podcast tie-in was like "We're gonna reach out to D&D podcasts" and just, reached out to non-D&D podcasts because what community.
This shit is why I'm so past "a rising tide lifts all boats."
When big names engage with TTRPGs, they need to engage with the whole community.
It's just basic fucking decency to remember to tell people where to find a game you use.

The thing that worries me the most about YouTube as a creation platform is the idea that if your subscriber delta begins to go down, you are bad. Rather than being able to just, make a thing.

The thing that was nice about YouTube's ad revenue system was that it made it so that the creator's audience were no longer directly responsible for the creator's revenue stream. Unfortunately, Google really does seem to have done away with the old "don't be evil" mantra.

Yeah, I can't easily afford all the creators I want to give money, even if I only gave a dollar.
I think Flatter might still exist. But it's definitely not a thing people are using and that does suck.
I wish we had better tools, and no profit motive

I think the real problem lies in assigning as single company as the gatekeeper for these sorts of (financial) things. This was one of the things that I really liked about Bitcoin, not it's not without a host of other problems now.
I think it's also hard because it's hard to engage when it's a corporation. But also just, creator has become a job, and it removes a lot of the ways that works.
I had a look, and apparently Flattr still exists and has a browser extension that tracks your usage and divvies up the donation based on that (you can override, however).
I don't think I like the privacy implications of that.

Reading more than the headline is important here:

I am very glad that Bill Gates tried to Carnegie himself, and turned out to be so horrible and evil that he can't even do that.
I mean, it's horrible that it doesn't matter. But it's good.

I mean, he made his billions off of the concept that you can own an idea. I think he's trying to redeem himself, but old habits die hard.
The "need" for this project should be a stunning indictment of the basic competence of the web development community.
Literally nobody should ever need to have something like this.

Heh, this is the kind of solution that Putin's RKN would love. A system where all browsing is done centrally under supervision of the watchful eye. Shut up and take my roubles!
I mean, it's definitely gonna be easy to E2E encrypt and validate. And the spying will be located elsewhere.
Finally watching episode 3 of Season 3 Discovery so that I finish it, so that I remember why I hate it and don't feel the need to rewatch later
They're like "Millions of people died in a galaxy-wide calamity" and I'm like "Oh, so the casualties were pretty low?"

Jim Steinman died today
I care so deeply about his work, it has been important to me since highschool.
He helped me engage with emotions as a *very* emotional teenager.
Here's to him.

The thing that kinda makes me sad is that right now the neighbouring country finally charged a murderous cop.
This gives me hope that my country might start to have their cops deescalate a little. But I also am frustrated by the celebrations, because this isn't even the 0th step, but so many people think it's a victory.
But I am also celebrating that the police didn't murder anyone in response last night.
That we know of.
But also - blah - I hate it. I worry. My fear isn't over.
But there's a crack in it. And I don't know if I want that crack to turn into relief.
