can't wait for my right controller to finally die while I'm flying in VTOL VR.

literally waiting for batteries to die to make the most out of their charge.

yeah I just mean to me, it was so weird to have a national standard for school buses

that said, it's not a bad idea just felt unreal to me.

why? UK and Australia school busses were just... your average bus from the local area, contracted to the school for service or they were old buses bought by a company to serve local schools. no school livery unless it was private n fancy.

I guess if I had seen something else my whole life and only seen that on TV.. I'd think it was some weird TV thing.

tbh... until I saw them in the news from various events,
I thought the American yellow school bus thing was just a weird TV thing and surely the whole US wasn't like that.

I just learned that the pizza box I've always thought of as a normal/regular/common pizza box is actually very very regional ???
its literally called a "Chicago style pizza box"
im so fucking confused

picture of a white pizza box with sides that fold down, the top is a flat piece that lays on top and is secured by two flaps that hang over the side and are inserted into the sides of the box at the front

that looks so weird...

also have you never seen a pizza box on TV?

an open pizza box with a pizza in it, hinge on the back edge and then 3 tabs that fold into the base, sitting open about 45 degrees

also has the same feeling of... naive childlike wonder in what it can create.

what's weird is.. I've never seen that sentiment over there, then again I don't go looking for it.

normally its just bickering about protocol differences.

I still play Techtonica and I like Foundary just eh Techtonica pre 1.0 was one of the best first person factory games

then they rushed 1.0 and completely changed the game kinda removing exploration all together.

I am honestly thinking about figuring out how to patch Techtonica though

lottie @lottievixen.xyz · 1d

Techtonica is completely dead it seems, Fire Hose Games took down the video they used to feature the game on their website and the 1.0 release announcement on youtube.

They also didn't update the game through the Unity security recommendation earlier this year.. *sigh* I loved the game

Facts that live rent free in my head:

— WARFRAME developers Digital Extremes exist in WARFRAME: 1999, despite its being an early-diverging alternate history

— They are implied to be developing the game that, in OTL, would become DARK SECTOR, the de facto mythos prequel to WARFRAME

wild that just a few days ago we had the reveal that specific, actionable, on-platform threats have led to federal charges for threatened someone; and (at time of writing) that account is *still up*

Claire Willett @clairewillett.bsky.social · Aug 16

it appears that @bsky.app have suspended the account of @jessiegender because a trans person saying "I wish ill on JK Rowling" is against the rules, so let me say with my loud cis voice that I too wish ill on all perpetrators of hate speech against trans people

reinstate Jessie, this is ridiculous

I do wonder how many people use it without setting up filtering though... sounds like an awful experience

2

lottie @lottievixen.xyz · 1d

ohhh i thought you meant the account label by a labeller

okay yeah the new experience has changed a lot since I started I think, yeah so this I feel should start on following, and then mention discover for finding people.

but not before teaching how to filter stuff you dont want to see.

lottie @lottievixen.xyz · 1d

modal popups next to the item sort of thing? yeah, it's been a standard for introducing stuff for a while

either way, I like the idea and feel moving back to that would be good

lottie @lottievixen.xyz · 1d

that is the sort of thing I'd expect them to do as onboarding to be honest, if it just drops you on the discovery feed, no wonder people bounce off bsky immediately.

the only label i've ever seen was then pronoun labels from the pronoun labeler but since stopped subscribing to that.
