@evan @djsf @bengo I'm willing to bet money that if any of the big corpos get their grasp on the fediverse they will enshittify it within the next five years.

@djsf @evan @bengo Why are corpos even at the table? It should be instances and open source implementations that work on this stuff. Like what Facebook is going to come in and be like "Oh we need such and such thing in the standard" and the folks at gaycommunists.gunclub need to suddenly break everything in order to support it?

lol looks like my household is infested with covid so I can't socialize for a lil while 🥲

@colinpurrington

Growing a start-up bro with half baked ideas full of the most recent buzzwords on my back so I can get venture capital.

By modulating air through a series of slits he makes sounds like:

"biiitcoooin"
or
"A I..."

When they try to hand him checks I reach out and grab them from underneath.

@talon btw from what I recall the web audio api is pretty close to what's available in Open AL. Have you checked the various language bindings there?

@talon Yeah my choice for using node was to make it easier to reuse as many libraries as possible and to reduce the burdon on getting c++ dependencies to build cross platform. TTS and STT is one of those things that's hard to get working on Linux even with all the stuff in Chromiums codebase :x

Would love to experience more audio-first games though.

@talon I started doing some of this in my "webrun" project a few years back. I'm still very much into it. See also, exokit but that was focused more on 3d graphics without the browser renderer.

I'm pretty glad that the number of things I'm deeply stressed about had been cut down by like 60% over thr past couple weeks 😅 Sadly some things are looming and out of my control but at least I can check off some of the ones I can actually influence.

My lease got approved so I can stop stressing about it 🥳🥳🥳

hex editor but it’s for digital spellbooks

Downloadable software is great because you can keep using it if you like it and the developers have to make you like their new thing enough to buy it.
Beats these SaaS landlords that charge you money to install cameras in your bathroom and won't fix the A/C.

Don't rush over to Godot Engine, it's not really advanced enough to buy Wētā Workshop or integrate gambling or spyware platforms into it's runtime

@johnefrancis HonestlyI wouldn't be surprised if we were thrown another scorcher before October gets here. Either that or snow. :P Maybe both?

Waydroid is working in stardust again (that UV edge wrapppp)

writing documentation on the new stuff I've been doing with and and listening to this electronic music artist from Paris.

not sure what it is but french people know electronic music 🥰

@ItsMorgan@octodon.social off topic but I initially read it as cat-holics. World would be nicer if everyone was one of those 🥰🥰

@aeva Yeah very similar experience on my end. I think not being super vocal or being an obvious "target" for outrage helps a lot too? I think a lot of PoC and trans folks for example get extra harassment just for existing within view of folks that want to get out of their way to hate them.

I think who people on your instance follow/are followed by can also have a huge effect so large instances like .social increase the opportunities for beef.

@aeva @evan IMO instance blocking makes it so much easier since jerks often congregate. Just blocking the top 10 or 100 most blocked instances can get you very far while leaving a lot of room for nuance.
