There isn't a single founder who ever said that the way to respond to massive, ongoing, long-standing violations of the constitution - was to wait to get more good people in congress to turn it around.

Not one. Ever.

Instead, the people of the several states need to refuse to comply, resist and nullify - that's THE RIGHTFUL REMEDY - to usurpations of power by the federal government.

Anything less than that? will be temporary, at best.

@lanodan @icedquinn @a1ba Pygame has a built-in sprite module which makes managing game objects much easier. It's my go to recommendation for a beginner who wants to get into game programming, but doesn't want to use a full-blown engine. Speed might be an issue, but it's decent for SNES/GBA-styled games.

@Alex It's not really consumerism as it's not tied to any particular brand, and you can make pizza yourself, including professional quality pizza if you have the right equipment and skills.

@Alex I'm talking about those who make it part of their identity, wear pizza t-shirts, have pizza bumper stickers on their cars, etc.

Pizza is undoubtedly my favorite food, but I can't stand most pizza lovers.

The Fediverse ain’t worth it if people don’t share and talk about art.

News isn’t what makes us human. Politics isn’t what makes us human. Tech certainly isn’t what makes us human.

Art is what makes us all human.

@jz Looks like Mozilla wants to kill Firefox as soon as possible.

@verita84 MOZILLA IS PUTTING CHEMICALS IN THE BROWSER TO TURN THE FIREFOXES GAY

I also hope Linux distros finally start dropping Firebox and Thunderbird as their default browsers and mail clients respectively. Red Hat and Canonical are probably going to continue bundling Mozilla products for years to come, but everyone else has zero excuse to continue including Firefox.

I hope Ladybird's support (both in code and donations) skyrockets soon.

Just a gentle reminder. All this modern IDE tooling that you've grown to rely upon makes you an objectively worse programmer.

I actually had an anxiety dream last night about my game releasing and people hating it so much they come and burn my house down.

@verita84 @dj I'm pretty sure it's because of the built-in user-agent spoofing add-on.

Has the cult of Elon gotten worse? I've had IRL friends try to convince me to not hate Musk. It's really weird, and getting creepy. Is Elon the next Paul Muad'Dib?

For those worried about what's going on with #Mozilla's new T&C for #Firefox and seeking alternatives to Blink-based browsers (aka Chrome-in-a-trenchcoat), consider helping @WebKitGTK (a port of @webkit), used by apps throughout the FreeDesktop.

#WebKit/WebKitGTK/WPE is effectively the only other mature/production-ready web engine you can use *today*, not many know that (see also github.com/Fyrd/caniuse/issues).

I hedge my bets by simultaneously helping QA Firefox and Epiphany (WebKitGTK) for parity.
