I was early for the thing and had the choice of an overheated waiting room or a very rain-soaked bench outside in the sunshine.

Damp bum but worth it.






Today we have a fun one we have Luna from the Xenia Linux project on the show, immutable #Gentoo, a project that started as a meme because of the other #Linux mascot

Two Broadcast Excellence Awards went to Serving Up Science! I’m grateful to work with an amazing team.

Congratulations to all the winners!



Looking forward to Emil Ferris’s My Favorite Thing Is Monsters, Book Two. I’ll probably reread Book One to prepare, in case anyone wants to join me! kottke.org/24/03/my-favorite-t…

Would you like to see higher adoption of Mastodon in higher education?

Here’s an opportunity “tip the scale” & show #CUBoulder that Mastodon can be an effective part of their social strategy while ALSO supporting an organization doing amazing work in the fediverse. If you use this link to donate to the College of Media, Communication & Information, the source of the donation will show up as coming from Mastodon.

The UI suggests $25, but you can donate as little as $1

All older games being sold in Germany on Steam now require a content rating gamingonlinux.com/2024/03/all-…

#Steam #Germany #PCGaming

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

Well, we have content rating since 1994 in Germany.
The system has changed several times since then.
Wolkenstein 3D for example got his rating 30 years after release.
In the 90s you only were able to buy it under the table.
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

Compare to the policies from Korean government err legislation backed by some voters: The Korean government says their department rate all the games released in Korea unless it's for a religious cause, public welfare, or is in test period; They rate games and the content changes for a "cost" --They will decide whether a game patch would require another costly rating session. and the cost is not small for a small firm like a small startup company.

A friend sent this saying it’s from 1948. As a mom of 2 in that 6-12 age range in 2024, I chuckled. #media #gaming #history

Fascinating! Here's a clipping that shows the whole article (just a few lines below what your picture covers) - newspapers.com/article/fort-wo…

I find it interesting that they call the radio an "instrument". I like how it highlights that it occupies the same creative space as a musician would, and wonder if that could possibly be an awareness that faded with time as recorded music became more normalized.

I'm referenced a few times in this, and to my embarrassment my initial insanely excited reaction to Proton is kinda famous now lol

I noticed a number of people, myself included, were nervous about clicking on this routine. Then when we get to the punchline, the laughs are long and loud. So well done!

“Where are you off to?”
“I have no idea.”
“Are you lost?”
“No, I am here.”
“Glad to hear that.”
“Where are you going?”
“Home.”
“What is home?”
“Where I live.”
“But you live here?”
“Yes, home is where I shelter.”
“Is it warm and soft?”
“It is indeed.”
“Take me with you.”
