Critiques of charter schools usually focus on poor quality education (disproportionately affecting racialized and poor people) and dangerous ideology (the movement is funded by billionaire dilettantes and religious maniacs), and with good reason!

Offsets don't just fail to mitigate the climate emergency - they have a business model: funneling lots of public money to rich people, like the millionaire residents of a gated Pennsylvania estate who got huge tax breaks for their private park.

Everything we do to fix offsets just makes them worse: adding complexity to a loophole-riddled system creates more loopholes. We can't save the world and our species with improved murder offsets.

The Jimquisition – Activision Blizzard And Industry Abuse: Burn It All Down

"Developers won't be free until they seize the means of development."

YESSSSSS. DO IT. #GAMEDEV #UNIONS AND #COOPS NOW! ☭

Cut out people like Bobby Kotick from the video game space and never let them return. 🗡️

I think I might set up a 9front machine.

I will form an organisation to promote 9front and Plan 9 in Perth, and I will seek federation with the Perth Anarcho-Syndicalist Federation.

I think it is time we moved on from UNIX.

Garak: I love you.
Julian: That's not your line.
Garak: I know.

Back around 1993, I wrote a TTRPG called "SLUGS" - the Satanic, Loathsome, Unwholesome Game System. Only 200 were ever made. About 20 pages, copied & stapled.

Today, folks pointed me at a FB discussion about that game. It has fans.

Put your weird out there. People will love it.

Hey, I'm currently super poor and can't even afford food or drink.

If you got money to spare for an income- and homeless hacker creating leftist software, services and propaganda, that'd be extremely appreciated.

Hey hey.

My RPG blog still exists: Art to inspire an Optimistic Post-Apoc Game | Ruminations of a Canadian Geek
https://canageek.wordpress.com/2021/07/20/art-to-inspire-an-optimistic-post-apoc-game

[…] However, I do like my settings a bit more colourful and optimistic then these games. As I went over last time there are plenty of good literary inspirations, but these often don’t have any art aside from […]

> TSR has been gone. There's a ton of artists and game designers and people that play..... and recently they were dissed for being old-fashioned, possibly anti modern trends, and enforcing, or even having the concepts of gender identity (laughs).

My favorite genre of film is confusing Andy MacDowell without ever telling her anything.

So with Valve making SteamOS 3.0 based on Arch Linux, does that mean that Valve will now sponsor the development of Arch? #valve #steam #steamos #archlinux #linux #linuxgaming
