i should clarify, i get liking cars from purely an engineering perspective. Just not from a driving perspective. When ppl like the "thrill" of driving cars on the road, it just tells me they're not taking responsibility for their surroundings and dont care if they randomly kill themselves or someone else one day. That thrill inherently doesnt happen wen ur driving safely.

theres certain AFAB ppl i know who noticeably treat AMAB women/enbies differently to AFAB equivalents, even when they themselves are trans. idk why and i dont think they even realise they're doing it.

its not like, obvious transphobia or anything, just the way they act noticeably changes. ofc i relate more to AMAB enbies since i am one, but i dont feel that the way i act is all that different compared to the way i act with AFAB enbies

RCT 1 and 2 still have the best scenario progression system i reckon. for some reason newer games are way more linear, like parkitect and planet zoo. but i really like being able to choose from a wide selection of parks. if it were me, all of the parks would be available at the start with maybe a "suggested" park order

reading this transcript of a clementine morrigan podcast that my friend told me to, cuz i wanna understand where my friend's coming from on cancel culture.

They keep using the word "identitarianism" as a synonym for identity politics. I dont think they know that identitarianism is literally a neo nazi thing of like "i must defend my white european identity"

which makes me think they're casually absorbing a lot more right wing language than just "cancel culture"

tbh i think if leftists wanna talk about restorative justice and conflict resolution, we need to actively avoid using the phrase "cancel culture".

it doesnt matter how you personally define the term because its ultimately derived from right wingers and abusers who want to avoid proper accountability processes.

Its a lot harder to distort the term "restorative justice" into a way of avoiding accountability, because it IS an accountability process

cant wait to be able to run a full RISC V desktop for the same price as x86 one day. Gonna be power efficient as fuk

also one of the things i love about free software is i dont have to worry about the migration to a different architecture as long as it's supported by mainstream compilers (which is much easier to do for RISC V than ARM and leagues easier than x86)

i learnt risc V in uni and i'd love to put that knowledge to use but the devkits are all just way too expensive compared to ARM devkits and the microprocessors themselves arent very widely available yet
