The CRTC absolutely needs to adapt and relegislate/reinforce CanCon for the digital era. Ensuring Canadian artists get represented in Canada on some of the biggest streaming platforms is super important.

There needs to be a film about the FOSS movement that matches the vibes of 1995’s cyberspace masterpiece Hackers.
Lemmy is definitely a more male space than I think even reddit was, and that does affect the tone of certain conversations. It really is a whiplash coming here from Mastodon sometimes and seeing a very different vibe.
Definitely a long way off from how active they were a year or two ago.
My early impressions are certainly quite positive, I love how experimental it is and very willing to explore new gameplay styles. Certainly curious to see what the metascore ends up being, probably higher than Link’s Awakening HD?
Cryptobros fuck off
Completely unique and very difficult to experience with alternative hardware nowadays (compared to the PSP which can be played on nearly everything). The games library is incredibly unique because small budget games still had a big chance to succeed.

I think about this all the time, I really could see myself getting into computer education ten years down the line.
What I would do is this:
There’s probably more I could come up with if I sat down to really plan out a week by week lesson plan, but this is off the cuff where I’d put the focus. So many of these topics have Connections-style related points. “Why is my computer at home different from a Raspberry Pi?” gives you a great opportunity to expand on CPU architecture, which leads to how computers actually “think”. I remember when I was a child one of the things that I was most confused by was how a computer was able to turn Python into something it actually understands, that can be a fascinating lesson in the right hands. How does a computer know where to look on the disc when it boots up? It’s great!
Kids already know how to use phones and tablets. Take concepts from those, concepts they are already familiar with, and then explain the deeper process behind it. Computers are engineered by people, you can understand them, it’s not magic.
I’ve been a big Bethesda fan for years, no one else makes games that quite come close to their very simulationist style. I like Starfield, and now that it’s a year after launch I have finally found my angle on it to get the enjoyment out of it that I wanted. I think it’s a good game.
But it’s also a flawed game, it’s clearly not for you, and that’s okay too.
Lemmy is a lot less women-friendly, queer-friendly, trans-friendly than the rest of the fediverse. That really needs to change.

I want to play either Skyrim or Breath of the Wild for the first time again, knowing nothing about what’s out there to be discovered or the limits of the sandbox. Those games cast a special spell in their first few dozen hours before you know where the boundaries of the world are.
I can recognize that I love the Star Wars prequels for bad reasons.
But also they’re still masterpieces actually.
Does anyone have a backup of it?
Do vinyl records count? I really like that they make beautiful noise from a simple electromechanical process.
If the Play Store becomes required like that then Android’s already-shaky status as an open source base platform is going to go out the window. I’m glad there are non-Google distros of Android but there really needs to be more of a push to make a completely FOSS phone platform.
It was especially poignant for me because so much of the boy-girl bodyswap stuff was very trans coded.
Screaming against the encroaching void that tails us, hell bent on turning every iota of live and culture into something that can be financialized and commoditized.
I just moved my Mastodon server from masto.host to being self hosted on a Raspberry Pi because of the server costs (which increase automatically on masto.host if you exceed the plan limits).
