So, big news yesterday. I'm appalled at the impact this will have on the #Unity ecosystem, and #gamedev at large. There's just no way this can lead to anything good for anyone.

#GodotEngine is getting a lot of positive attention in reaction, so I want to address a few things. 🧵

Fuck it. #YOLO

#Bluesky continues to be entirely non-responsive to the numerous security vulnerabilities I've reported to them, so I spent the evening writing up a nice README and a framework with exploit modules, and just made it all public.

Have fun.

@icedquinn @yassie_j at some point (~2016?) it was also used to make fun of the "wake up sheeple" conspiracy nuts, though I'm not sure where it fits in the progression or if it's completely independent.

i'll never get over the intense special interest required for someone to post this on imdb

@travis @nixCraft it's always fun to see these articles reach conspiracy nut levels of grasping at straws. Hey, stop using this browser because one of its investors is a fund operated by a guy who independently helped fund a wrestler's lawsuit against a company that outed him as gay.

This is no different than right-wing nuts connecting a company through 4 levels of indirection to Jews and declaring it a jewish conspiracy. This level of guilty-by-association bullshit needs to stop, on all sides.

@FantasmitaAsex @nixCraft don't care, good browser. I did put it below Vivaldi despite preferring it as a browser because of those concerns though.

@nixCraft there's Chromium derivatives that aren't so messed up, like Vivaldi, Brave or the classic ungoogled Chromium.

@coolboymew so to play in relaxed sitting position you put Mickey's face on your crotch?

Since I've seen a lot of chatter about people switching to #Firefox as Google ramps up the enshitification of #Chrome, let me tell you about a killer feature for people who (a) need multiple accounts on the same websites (eg. devs) or specifically (b) have to use multiple Google accounts.

Firefox has an official addon called Multi Account Containers that lets you trivially set up color coded tabs that have separate sets of cookies. Log into your dev account in one, and your test account in another. Log into your personal #gmail in one and have another tab next to it with your work Gmail. I'm actually not signed in to any Google accounts in most my tabs, I just have containers for the specific tasks I do on Google products.

It'll take you 30 seconds to set up.

Whenever I talk about dumb NPM packages, I always see people missing the point, blaming it on web developers, the tooling, or NPM itself, these are just symptoms

Packages like isOdd, leftpad, etc only exist because JS is fucked, it's always been fucked and will never be unfucked

in the late 90s, steve ballmer snorted a line of cocaine, went on stage, and screamed about microsoft windows completely drenched in sweat, and every fortune 500 guy in the audience was like "my company needs this product". and that's why every computer on the planet right now is dogshit to use
