This sucks, and I hate to ask, but I can't pay some upcoming bills and I could use some help so that I can continue to drive my car, use my electricity, and so on.

If you have a spare buck or two, I'd really appreciate your help. Thank you.

hiding details of the material reality of how software operates and where data goes from users is bad, and calling that "good UX" is capitulating to the proprietary way of thinking that produces dark patterns and SaaSS

while i'm thinking about random media that occasionally sticks in my mind as "hey, that was good": a lot of people my age (and likely under) remember the Spongebob episode "Ripped Pants" but nobody ever talks about how neat it was that a popular cartoon did an entire episode that had a moral of "listen, if you're going to be a weird little joker, the least you can do is switch up your material so it doesn't get fucking annoying"

I feel like there's a lot of context one can lose by playing something on MAME without knowing what it is. Like I played some terrible plug-n-play compilation and then researched it and found out the "console" looks like this:

If Eugen is so ashamed of the monster he's created that he feels the majority of it should be hidden away like a dirty little secret in the official iOS app he could use that shame towards building better tools towards a healthier and safer social space like people have been literally begging for and suggesting since 2017

when someone "DQs" in a sporting event it means they get to go to Dairy Queen for ice cream once it's over

I create unique email addresses for every service I use.

I just got a spam email to one of those addresses.

What's the process here? Do I report it to the service in question in case they were hacked? Is there some sort of regulatory body who would like to know about this in case they were selling email addresses?

NEW VIDEO: Coping With Chronic Pain (Part 2: Prevention)

these sorts of informational disability videos don’t perform as well on YT, so comments, shares etc are especially appreciated 💜
