please tell me i'm not crazy and that i just found the source of an italo house hook on a fucking unauthorized sesame street cover album

or at least it sounds a hell of a lot closer than every other version of spinning wheel i've found so far

"Mark’s manifesto isn’t about building a global community, it is about building a global colony – with himself as king and with his corporation and the Silicon Valley oligarchy as the court."

"Where Mark asks you to trust him to be a benevolent king, I say let us build a world without kings."

A very well-written article with a lot of quotable sentences.

You heard it here first, folks. Donating money to the #Mozilla Foundation does not make it go to the Mozilla Corporation, and therefore your donation does not make it to the Firefox developers.

Honestly it saddens me that there isn't more people talking about OpenToonz, and this fork in particular:

I was wondering "hey, why DON'T we have open source software for quality 2D animation"? -- except we *do* have it and not enough people know about it.

Oh, postscript— in before someone says Reddit is still out there fulfilling the self-selecting, topic oriented niche. No. Nope. Nuh uh. Reddit’s up and down vote system negates the organic flow of conversation that enables people’s actual personalities to come through and build friendships that extend beyond having the pithiest (or evilest) comment. There’s no coffee shop conversation possible there.

When people fled these places to be on MySpace and Facebook and Twitter and Instagram and, now, Mastodon, those places died. Even if they’re still up, even if they’re still “functioning” to an extent, a community can’t survive on the occasional post from the occasional passerby. They became a receptacle of static knowledge, instead of a salon of like minded people seeking comfort and joy.

Social media has largely destroyed those outlets, as everyone has their profile on a place where they talk about everything, and are expected to be their whole, authentic, or at least “branded” self, and that’s not only not sustainable, it’s NOT HOW WE INTERACT IN “REAL LIFE.” You are not the same parts of yourself with everyone you know. And that’s not only ok, that’s GOOD AND RIGHT.

Bêtise : nom féminin, attitude éloignée de l’intelligence, qui consiste par exemple à nier toute réalité scientifique en ne se fiant qu’aux ressentis de son insignifiante existence. Ex : “tout le monde voit bien que le soleil tourne autour de la terre!”

Blender moved its videos to PeerTube after YouTube shut them down (apparently for refusing monetization). Since it's federated, you can follow them from Mastodon. @blender

@nonlinear I'm not much for division of labour. That's just a capitalist industrialist constraint.

I'd be more happy if UI/UX people understood engineering better, and if engineers understood UI/UX better.

There's plenty of misunderstanding and lack of innovation stemming from division of labour alone.
