Hey all~ I've started to upload/keep my VODs from livestreams~ They will be published on twitch shortly after the stream, and also exported to YouTube and added to this playlist~ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLmtpKEPoR3PHY4nVaS3YLcDBTEMe-xcc

John Carmack, previous chief technology officer of Oculus, is leaving Meta: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/16/technology/virtual-reality-pioneer-is-leaving-meta.html

@eniko @kickback @alice It really feels like that sometimes... Though honestly the bird site had that sorta vibe too where there'd be random people who'd extend the "SILENCE, BRAND" attitude to indies

People need to realize that "I need to sell my product" and "I want people to discover this creative work I made and am proud of" are one and the same for anyone who creates for a living

Creatives needing to stay clothed, sheltered, and fed isn't some personal slight to you and way too many people here act like it is

Wild indictment alleges some brazen, hilarious misbehavior by Marco Rubio's old roommate & pal David Rivera.

It's 1:30 am on a Friday night and I'm finally getting to reading the indictment of Rivera and his partner Esther Nuhfer for failure to register as foreign agents. Summing it up in a thread since I'm not writing about this for work.

The story didn't go unnoticed in Miami https://www.cbsnews.com/miami/news/co-defendant-snared-in-venezuela-probe-with-ex-miami-us-rep-david-rivera-appears-in-federal-court/ but people didn't zoom in on some juicy bits.

Docket: https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/66627665/united-states-v-rivera/

Waaaa that was so much fun!!!!!! Thank you Yume-chan for inviting me!!! ❤️❤️❤️

If you missed it and you're interested don't forget to check out the VOD! ✨✨

I don't have the energy to argue with the people who tell me that by linking to ElonJet's Mastodon account, I am supporting stalking because I don't think they are arguing in good faith. They are weirdly unconcerned with stalking, harassment, or threats to people who don't own private jets, such as the gay former Twitter employee Elon falsely claimed supported pedophilia last week.

Remember: Twitter is Elon's company, he has the free speech and free association right to run it pretty much however he wants and to ban people for petty narcissistic reasons.

And we have the right to laugh and point at his ridiculousness and at the free-speech pretenses of his gullible fans.

Thinking back to this part of my "Federation is still the Worst of All Worlds" note...

"Without building consent and resistance into the protocol and infrastructure, we’re just forcing most users to pick a new dictator for their data without any real basis for that choice.

This last bit is very important."

I'd definitely write it differently now, my priors were weighted towards soft censorship and mass surveillance and did not factor in a billionaire deliberately burning the whole thing down.

An entrance to NYC's Central Park will serve as a permanent acknowledgement of the five teenagers who were wrongfully convicted in 1989 of the brutal assault of a jogger (the so-called "Central Park Five"). Entrances the Central Park perimeter have historically been named for the varied groups the park serves, e.g.., "Engineers' Gate". "Artists' Gate", etc. Now there will also be a Gate of the Exonerated, at the northeast corner of the park.

Me three weeks ago: man, it's great so many tech folks are here, but it's gonna be a nightmare to get (non-tech) journos over here too, and they drive so much of the discussion value on Twitter

Today: lmao, well

here's a fun bit of trivia: more Mastodon posts were clustered to Techmeme's top stories tonight than ever before https://www.techmeme.com/221216/h0050

Just a heads-up to all #Vtubers in vt.social, you can’t post vt.social links anymore on the bird-app. I was able to do that in the desktop version but not on mobile, will test again once I’m back.

@LunaFoxgirlVT congrats, the instance is notable enough to be blocked on birdsite!
