show me a man that doesn’t want to be loomed over by his much taller and more successful girl and i’ll show you a boy not worth my time

we got both kinds of nexus, torment and gamers

i lowkey think a transfem graphic designer slipped this by without anyone realizing

the dotcom bubble was the best, when companies just crammed the latest fad into their business model it just meant that they made their website all AJAX’y and hired a ruby on rails developer

Honestly curious what people think: how can parents keep their children safe on the internet?

This is many questions, but the more interesting to me aspects are:

• as technology exists now, what can a parent do to both provide their child access to the internet while not being negligent to their safety

• what could technology do or change to make things safer for kids, and also give parents some peace of mind that this is the case?

fun fact: the original author of the USB draft specification had a typo; the author mostly wrote during his breakfasts and we almost had UCB (universal cereal bus)

one of my first projects at work was testing a billing backend for what is now google workspace. i used my own credit card because the system wasn’t hooked up to a real merchant processing system and the credit card number had to validate checksums and i was too lazy to walk and buy prepaid debit cards

after 6 months of this going flawlessly i got a call from my bank “this is a fraud alert, have you attempted to purchase …. umm, it says… twenty million dollars of services from Google?”

i think it’s dope my origin story has this fun bit that absolutely nobody believes

is VR gaming still a thing people think is fun and cool? i don’t really talk to that kind of nerd anymore since quitting my job (now it’s gender nerds all the way down)

anyway my ex-wife just got one of those facebook ones to play roblox , which makes me assume it’s now for boring olds

maybe i’m a possum girl after all

a dude asked me what yuri is so i had to quickly think up an accessible explanation, using cultural references they would understand:

"it's like Titanic but Jack is the girl. and Rose is the girl too. and instead of a boat they go to the aquarium. someone still might drown though because both characters remain absolutely useless when problems arise."

i think it, i post it

my work-age index was 67 before i bounced

i’m working to invent a new compression algorithm so we can have a new file format for the first time since ladies learned to rename ZIP files
