Zip. Zap. Zen. ⚡️
This and more coming to Zen very, very soon!
@zenbrowser Wait.. That was already in Zen... and they removed it... and I miss it. I'm glad it's coming back—it's very useful.
@zenbrowser Aye let's go, can't wait! This is one of the features I've been missing most since switching from Arc
Gamedevs need to decide if they want to brag about how cool they (or think they) are OR make money.
because this kind of things don't works...
Here look at this game I made in 3 hours using chatGPT with my amazing prompt erngineer skills. Get it now for only $89.95
@Kingu OMG! I found Jesus!
@heredos i have a token male alter so im fine (its debatable if he is male he just uses he/they pronouns)
Boosts appreciated, and TYSM in advance:
I am procastinating for a presentation I have to make on cool queer historical people in STEM. And only Turing comes up to mind (I also can't talk about Lynn Conway because I already included her in another presentation).
Can you suggest any other cool figure? I especially interested if there's some sort of interesting story attached to their personal life.
Deadline's on Friday evening plz help 
Magnus Hirschfeld. Queer, Jewish, German, sexologist, pioneer in studying and understanding of homosexual and trans people (and advancing queer rights in society). Active in Berlin in the years before and leading up to the time of the Nazis and had to spend the rest of his life in exile because of Nazi persecution.
@Bel_tamtu very tempted to include him, I'm a bit afraid of not having the skill to explain the concept of sexology effectively, but definitely worth a mention. Thanks!
@democracysausage Sally Ride? Search engines can spit out a sizeable list.
@leaf good tip, thanks! To be fair I didn't find her in my search, so I def appreciate you chiming in!
@democracysausage How about Katherine Johnson who worked for NASA?
@kopierkatze that's quite a story, thanks for the tip! I miiight not include her just because the presentation I have to make is more about gender and sexuality queerness due to the crowd attending, but she's going in my Wikipedia reading list no matter what
@democracysausage If medicine is in STEM, then Alan L. Hart, for tuberculosis detection via X-rays, and for being one of the first trans men getting hysterectomy in the USA (around 1917).
(Not necessarily historical,) Eric Allman is gay and developed Sendmail, but I don't know any interesting story of his beyond the quote about all hate mail getting through a gay program. His husband Marshall Kirk McKusick did a lot of filesystem work in BSD.
@lukyan Alan Hart is in the list for sure, also big lol for that sendmail anecdote, I didn't know that one!
The antimoonlandist are re-awakening again!
Yep. IDK what is Nasa budget, but I am sure it's way lower than this!
@Kingu @hypolite 24.4B, with a 23% cut for 2027 (to line R’s pockets) :(
Which is why they shouldn’t have spent money on a moon landing (it has limited scientific value vs other cheaper alternatives). And I say this as something that firmly believe we need science.
Faking a moon landing in ‘69 wasn’t even remotely possible. Today every country is looking, they would say something. Nobody is. It’s real.
Hey Fedi!
I'm turning 60 today.
@heredos oh no! how are we going to oppose the status quo when the status quo is actually good ?
all to say that i've spent about two hours reading hallucinated comparisons of hallucinated readmes of hallucinated code, and i have such a headache i'm en the verge of giving up.
@heredos i think they just dont even know
hence why i cringe a lot whe our teachers tell us to keep ourselves up to date or we might not find a job.
no one is giving us access to a claude api, and we don't have thousands of bucks to throw at it "just to keep up".

This is how the near-sentient LLM overlord detect if the user is frustrated :)
Outside of Mastodon, trans peoples are quite rare and as such, I don't know much trans artists. :(
The shame is on me and I will try to educate myself.
But in the meantime, for #TransMusicMonday I can point out that the idol unit PLANK STARS do include a trans idol!

disk space is expensive so you cannot use more than 2gb of disk space in your session.also my uni:
here's a 15 gb dataset, now do something with it and this expensive program (that we will not provide) that REQUIRES cuda to work. don't have a GPU? just use the ones at the uni.wtf am i supposed to do here?
oh and you can't plug usb drives, nor can you use sshfs.
Please give me a dollar a month on Patreon so I can continue to create these posts that people clearly can't get enough of.

Wow, that's crazy.
hi! i want to test a hypothesis.
do you identify as human or nonhuman [therian, otherkin, etc]; and, are you transgender?
please consider boosting for a larger sample size.
| human, transgender: | 107 |
| human, cisgender: | 79 |
| nonhuman, transgender: | 156 |
| nonhuman, cisgender: | 17 |
My current headset is in the process of literally decomposing, so I really need to find something new. Dad found an unopened pair of wireless earbuds that he had bought heavily discounted a long time ago, which I was interested in trying out.
I put them in the charging case until they were fully charged and then tried them on. They were really comfy (they're "sporty" ones that will rotate into place snugly with a latch), the sound quality was great and they have noise cancelling too! Perfect...
"Battery please charge" ...What? And then the left bud died and only the right one would work. Try to charge it again and go through the process of resetting the buds, re-pairing, and it works again... For a while. The battery time seems to be measured in seconds.
I think I prefer wired peripherals... 😭
I guess it wouldn't hurt to try asking fedi for headphone/headset recommendations.
- They NEED to be comfortable to wear while wearing glasses (if you don't wear glasses do not reply)
- Cheap (in price range of below 100€)
- Wired (see above post for why)
- They should muffle surrounding noise (actual ANC optional)
It feels impossible to find something that fits well with glasses, that's basically why I have been using my current one for so long even though they are falling apart.
I need both headphones and a mic but if I'm gonna be honest, I can compromise with just a pair of headphones using my current headset sitting on the table for the mic, if it means I don't need to sit in pain for hours a day. (Anything to encourage me to get a proper external mic is also always good)
@ROllerozxa The Sony WH-CH720N seem to fit your needs. They have been a blessing for me wearing glasses.
@zeroase interesting! yes they seem to be perfect (optionally wired and mic included), they're even discounted here right now for a couple more days!
@zeroase Got them earlier today and have been trying them out. They're perfect and I absolutely can't stop wearing them around the apartment! (Wireless turns out to be quite good after all...) Thank you very much for the recommendation :D
"I created a platform that will inevitably create child abuse. Therefore, it's not my fault", say Zuck, full of confidence
this aria app has a keyboard option that lets you post while the feed is up and it’s fantastic
I should try Sora again, I think they do Miskey too
@heredos@heredos.net daaaamn this is clean!!
Do you notice the app has to load lots of notes when you open it
Meta and google spent hundred of millions of dollars on AI, which could have a positive effect on society, such as cancer treatment. This ruling blaming them for making social networks addictive and unsafe, and asking them a huge fine is only a victory for the plaintiffs, not for children or societywhat the fuck is this absolute delusional take about how much google had to pay after that trial, how much they pay on harmful ai VS how much they spend on actual useful ai?
it's been years since we've seen advances on alphafold, and it's been a few monthes since the last gemini version!
If these guys truly believe in the good of society, then they really need to set their priorities straight!
@heredos but the video is already compressed
I'm surprised that so many people don't know this.
I'm too woke for this game, how is a T-shirt with a washed out kind of red-yellow gradient considered female clothing under any kind of gender normative lens
@heredos I suppose so...
Looking at it on the wiki though (it's called the Peachy tee) I saw there was a similar piece of clothing with the same motif but as a tank top (Peachy tank). And that one is labelled as unisex! So arbitrary...
