Aeáro, a SeaWyrm :elfstar:

Splashy dragn. SFF writer and occasional poet. Also I do the computer progremming sometimes. Am here in large part to rawr at people and be dragn, but sometimes other stuff too.

My great ambition in life is to be an immortal cyborg.

I review follow requests haphazardly, so don't be discouraged if I don't accept yours right away. I'll get to it eventually. Maybe.

I think I *mostly* agree.
The one caveat is just that sometimes someone didn't even know about the manual, or didn't think to look there, or assumed it was untrustworthy because of outside baggage rather than because of anything to do with the manual itself.
Obviously, yelling rudely at someone is still a pretty sucky response, but saying "well, I *could* tell you, but did you look here? It's got all the answers for this sort of question" seems pretty reasonable to me. A polite, gentle RTFMing.
Not that there isn't still a lesson to learn there as the designer that you need to at least make the manual more discoverable or something. Or less intimidating. Or whatever.
And of course, you've still gotta treat them respectfully and not just be dismissive and scornful if they say "no, I didn't check the manual - the dang thing's too confusing!" Because if they say that, it means that in some way or another, the dang thing's too confusing.

Ah, it's that Palmer Luckey guy.
I knew he was an idiot when he sold Oculus to Facebook and said "don't worry, they won't make you require a Facebook account to use it or anything like that. I know this because they promised really hard that they wouldn't in a non-legally-binding sort of way."
Didn't know he was also a fascist until a while later, but... yeah.

#AltForYou An extremely tiny and adorable baby bat, which a human is holding carefully between three fingers and a thumb. The bat is clutching the thumb with its wings and feet. The human's other hand is using a cotton swab to gently rub the bat's head, face, and under its chin, as though giving a cat headscritches.

I think it's worse than that. Don't people price art by the square inch of canvas?
Capitalism finds art totally incomprehensible and tells us that the value of it is as a physical object with some kind of unique, special properties that it can't even guess at.

It's good optics, though: "No Kings" is short, to the point, expresses a sentiment that basically everyone in the US - no matter their politics or lack thereof - can get behind, and will be fairly impossible for anyone to distort into sounding like it means something more divisive. It also implicitly carries its criticism of Trump in a way that will get through even to people who aren't paying attention and would dismiss most criticisms of Trump as "just more politics."
Honestly, for the goal it's trying to achieve, it's fairly brilliant, IMO.

Sounds great! Just remember not to tense up your syrinx too much, and be aware of your surroundings' accoustic properties if you want that reverb to really resonate.

Ideally "Fediverse" instead of "Mastodon," though.
"Publish screenshots via ActivityPub"
...except that would probably just confuse people, wouldn't it.

Not sure my VR setup is even working right now, though. And my VRC avatar needs fixing, too...
