Because people would immediately call him a sell out. And because it then would be the property of whatever company, and he could be tied legally from recreating it.

I used to do this with audacity. It’s fun to open an image, and apply some audio filters to it, then export it. Makes for some interesting photo fuckery results.

Better to cut it out early for sure. It didn’t take me years to go from being able to quit without issue to having seizures in medical detox so bad they had to keep me sedated for 3 days.

I’ve got 38 days today. Last night was my first NYE without alcohol in decades. Tried to sleep through it, but was woken to hundreds of gun shots, which is fun.

But I made it. Planning on hitting a meeting today with a house mate from the sober house. I’m not much of one for 12 step meetings, but it’s a low cost to pay for the opportunity to get my life back together over the next 13 months in this program.

Depending on your level of use, be aware that alcohol withdrawal can directly kill you. Be careful if you notice any intense symptoms like cold sweats, tremors, nausea and vomiting.

Any chance of a new link for discord?

I appreciate it. I’m struggling for sure. Stuck inside at the sober house for a few more days - blackout period and all that. The house is in the hood. Literally heard automatic gunfire last night. Ugh. I’m just venting and I’m done now. For now lol.

I’m sitting here, bored as hell in a sober living house. Struggling to not lose my mind right now, but just keep remembering I’ve got 37 days clean and sober for the first time in forever.

The cravings are real as fuck.

Oh that’s cool. I didn’t know that. Thanks for sharing!

I knew it wasn’t spelled exactly like the bird lol. But yeah I used that shit for years. I don’t really have a use for it anymore or I’d probably still be using it

I used that until they pay walled it. Then I found Pidgen I believe it was called. It was open source and could connect to pretty much every messenger and IRC and stuff. Then my friend just switched to texting lol

Lync was such garbage. I used that for years at one of my old jobs. Teams just feels like discord with extra shittiness lol.

The worst part is that they had developed an in-house app that worked amazing but abandoned it for teams.

Reddit mods are basically in the belief that they’re Mao Zedong. When I created and ran a subreddit /r/treecomics way back in the day, I got accused of being too light on reposts. Like if it was within a couple days I would just remove it. Unless someone was constantly doing it, there’s no harm. Lighten the fuck up people.

So glad I’m permabanned for saying that neonazis in my city should learn how to bite a curb.

Rogue legacy is one of my favorite roguelites. The second is so great too. This is such a cool move from them

Data and Privacy > Personalized Shopping.

If you don’t have that option, you’re not in an affected country.

I’m never upset with a decent burger

I mean, I’m a dev who got laid off almost a year ago and still can’t find anything. I know tons of others who are in similar positions. So…

And yet, higher ups continue to lay off more devs because AI “is the future”.

Fuck off

Good luck. Software development market is absolute trash now. I can’t get a job with nearly 10 years of experience. One of my old jobs has gone from 35 developers to 5 who use ChatGPT to generate most of their code and just check and make small modifications.
