mutual aid, please boost!!
And even if I do get a job, I don't really want to be living here much past June anyways, with how my parents are with me. So any amount yall could donate, even the smallest amount, will be going towards helping me move out asap and getting into a healthier environment for myself

Where would one find a good engine or framework to make a multiplatform port of this? Originally I was going to build it ground-up from Python, but I figure the creatures here would have more opinions. I remember enjoying playing around with GameMaker engine back in the day, it would certainly be more likely to ease the graphics stack compared to ground-up coding
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)
