It’s so cute with its little wings and belly so close to the ground.

Also super cool the project was designed by students.

I also got immediate ai vibes from the photo

It might have always been there. Using the connect app only shows one picture even now, while the voyager app shows both. Weird lol

I appriciate you telling me there’s another pic tho so I checked it in the other app :)

If you decided to share a close up of the figures in the boat, I would be super excited

These are so cool, I hope your patent gets granted so I can read more about your process :)

I’m into the color palette you choose for this one

Super interesting method of entry. It makes a lot of sense as an attack vector. Steam doesn’t have a very rigorous process for checking what they offer on their platform & most customers don’t check their games before running them.

I’m honestly suprised it hasn’t happened more frequently. I wonder if the amount of press this particular incident is getting will cause steam to change their process for publishing games.

For me it’s because his whole shtick the last month has been about ‘eliminating government waste’ then there’s half a billion being set aside for his companies shitty cars? I think it’s the hypocrisy that really makes this particular thing frustrating.

I’ve lived in and worked at a number of co-ops. I think they’re far better for the employee than traditional businesses when implemented in a democratic way. Having control over the workplace and direction of the business is incredibly valuable. It’s also important that the co-op members talk to and know eachother. Having lots of meetings and community building is very typical in this type of business.

Also the type of co-op I’m talking about also returns excess profits to the workers (often with a portion taken out to be put back into the business/saved for a rainy day). In this way they are way better than unions, which no matter how powerful do not fully redistribute profits.

I also think worker co-ops are functionally better than worker communes. Co-ops give much more economic freedom to the workers, and side step many of the pitfalls of live/work communes.

Feel free to ask me more about my experiences if you’re curious :)

It’s grapes of wrath by john steinbeck

I agree with all your predictions to my questions lol.

Though i don’t think rednote will actually take the place of tiktok, I think that’s mostly a protest migration & something else will take the top spot – if tiktok actually stays banned. I do think there’s a chance trump will choose not to enforce the ban in a meaningful way because he knows it will rally quite a few young and nieve voters into his camp (plus he’d probably get a hefty payoff).

Same! I think it is nice to have something developing that isn’t as overwhelmingly frightening as lots of the things in the works right now. Like this is high stakes and says alot about corruption in America, but like at least it’s not something that could potentially put me or my loved ones in harms way.

It’s going to be so interesting seeing how all of this plays out. Will meta succeed in reclaiming their market share? Will a new app take the throne? Will congress just keep banning any app that is too popular and not under the american oligarchys control? Will trump somehow leverage this into him being the one to save tiktok? Will loops UI ever be good enough to compete? Only time will tell.

What a strange timeline we live in lol

I’m so sorry you went through such a terrible schooling environment. I work with neurodivergent kids and its so sad to see and hear about some of the ‘methods’ people think are appropriate. It’s truely heartbreaking knowing it’s not just you but an entire school of people who were systemically abused and further disenfranchised.

I hope you are able to find a way to heal and move forward in your life, i know how sticky trauma can be.

Edit to add: sorry to comment on such an old post lol, i just realized this tread is like a month old

Super interesting hearing about the perspective of the artist :) thanks for sharing & good luck with your book launch!

Exciting! I like the final cover design you went with :)

Also it’s part of a series? Super cool. Do they stand alone or should I read murder in the tool library first?

Good find, thanks for sharing :)

Lol LG always has the worst emotes

Me and you just think alike lol this post awakened the same sleeper memory in both of us :P

Also I think mine was technically after yours, there were no posts when I went to type my comment and yours popped up after I hit post lol

Naw, we posted at the same time. When I typed my comment (the one i assume you’re refering to) there were no comments. Once I hit post this one was already here.

Great minds think alike or something like that lol
