Toot
Toot is a CLI and TUI tool for interacting with Mastodon instances from the command line.

I don't know if it works with other instances outside of mastodon.

So I finally got one of the rarest and weirdest pc98 family machines, the NEC APC III. It's a localized PC-9801f for the anglosphere, with the PC codepage instead of a kanji ROM, ttl video I need to find out how to adapt, and a us layout keyboard with the same switches as the early pc98 keyboards.

There's unfortunately some battery corrosion that seeped into the 8087 socket but these things are so rare it's worth trying to fix and repair. I might end up letting someone else finish the cleanup work if the video out works on here. There's no beep but I heard the pi-po sound didn't come until the 9801VX.

On a related note, here's the APC III keyboard next to the final pc98 keyboard layout used in the windows era rubber dome keyboards. The keyboard layout didn't change too much from the early 9801 boards (see wiki pic), while the APC III has 12 function keys and keys removed/moved around (likely sharing similar scan codes) from both.

The keyboard uses the infamous linear NEC switches that when stored in the high humidity of Japan tend to break down and quit working.

@PhenomX6 @Mr_NutterButter yeah I feel like tracking your kids to make sure they come home on time or whatever is a breach of trust and respect. You can't do that kind of stuff to your kids and expect them to be forthcoming and respectful towards you. Usually that kind of thing doesn't come out of the blue though, it's been building up their entire childhood.

Plus, yeah, I don't want some sort of issue where someone hacks the app and uses its data to find out where my kid is or something. I can't be all for privacy/security while giving my child none.

Playing with a very cool new app that automatically creates subtitles from the audio on your computer (or microphone input). The best part: It's fully local and works offline!

I've never made an in-game purchase. I worked next to people who had been at a mobile game company where their entire business model revolved around the 2%~5% of their players that put in a few thousand into shitty mobile games. I dated a moron U Washington student who had put $200 into certain mobile games.

I think there is some concern/empathy for people who turn gambling addict with these games, but I think that empathy is misplaced. Who gives a shit. They have responsibility over their lives. If they want to make in-game purchases and get addicted to MMOs to the point where it costs them their jobs/family/lives .. it's on no one but them.

the rage comic guys have visible and intentional design choices and variety both in style, pose, position, and character.

@xianc78 you might find this interesting.
I would go far as to say, that Bayer is one of the big culprits tryna bring about the Great Reset.

I know glyphosate is horrible, and have been mostly sticking to an organic diet for several years now and reaping its benefits... but I didn't realise how horrible it is to this extent.
