I think we're unofficially Canadians, so it works.

I was kinda worried when I saw the subject line of the email.

Steam is actually pretty decent, by company standards.

That... actually explains the logic of this lawsuit for me. I still disagree and think they're overly litigious fucks, but I think I might understand a less malicious argument for it. If someone mods a see 'n say to have a different audio track and slaps some new stickers on it, that's still a see 'n say, right? The mechanism is fundamental to the product - a see n say is the spinning wheel -> random noise and Pokemon is video game where you throw balls at wild not-animals to catch them and use them to battle people. There's a difference between a toy that's heavily inspired by another one and being an edgy five year old with a firearm sticker pack who gives them to the cows and chickens and sheep.

I really have more of a games as art philosophy though, and I'll just point to the works of Andy Warhol and Marcel Duchamp to make my argument here, my edible just kicked in.

Beat me to it. I had a sex wax car air freshener for a while, common enough in Florida but I'm sure it confused people here in Minnesota.

Honestly, I felt it was dunking on Shakespeare a bit - the witches in Macbeth tell him that "Be bloody, bold, and resolute. Laugh to scorn The power of man, for none of woman born Shall harm Macbeth." and the twist is that Macduff was a C-section baby. Which isn't exactly rare anymore. The "I am no man" is the better solution, lol.

I made a trip to my local smoke shop last week and someone had brought their Chihuahua in, this old fat potato had climbed out of his stroller and was waddling up to people for pets. That's the first and only chihuahua I've met that wasn't one of your two types.

There's something like three for the district, I wonder if she completes trials faster so any given case is more likely to go to her?

I'm originally from Florida and that's what I do. Although the light rail is a bit interesting sometimes.

So many forks, lol.

Winamp go fork yourself!

I love GitHub drama.

Anyone know if the Dolby code leak is going to lead to anything interesting, or had this code been leaked before? And how fucked are the Winamp folks?

I blame rtxn@lemmy.world's comment for giving me this idea.

 
 

I have mixed feelings on the pronoun use, but having read some of her autobiographical writing I don't think she would have taken much issue with it. This piece is more focused on her work in computer engineering, so I felt it was appropriate to post here.

 

The MN Department of Revenue just announced the application won't be available today, BMTN hasn't updated their article as of the time I'm posting this. I've been hitting F5 for almost three hours, I'm going to go take a nap.
