@conradrotho I mean most of the worst bits have been indipedently confirmed by gizmodo, kickstarter and various folks talking to third party publishers.

@silverwizard "This seems completely bonkers "

Oh it is. The plan is to basically rescend the prior sane license.

Issue a D&D tax for all crowdfunding campaigns.

Make their virtual tablet top the only one in town legally able to play D&D games. And run that as a "live service" model.

And chase all TTRG's that look similar to their's out of town.

@silverwizard Pretty sure it's a copy and paste dump of something with more structure, with side bars of explanations.

Thus why it reads like a lunatic. Not that it was a sane license to begin with.

Apple Rep: I know where your building is. I will just park in that convenient gravel lot near your building for our meeting tomorrow.

Me: YEAH. About that. We are a university. Here is a link to maps for all our visitor parking, just in case you find that lot more full than it was in December.

That vague feeling that the people who run the thermastat in your office left the heat on all holiday.

You step into your office at 7 am and it is 73 degrees and rising.

@wakame In general my view is the concerns are very different to AI art" but no less serious in terms of long term effects.

And programmer folks in mass are quick to embrace convenience

Wish programmers were as concerned about copilot and the like as artists are over AI "art".

Been pretty quiet the past week. Been spending all my time with family, and I multi task poorly.

Work and the holidays and family have kept me busy enough I haven't really opened Mastodon in a couple of days. Hopefully this are settling into a smoother pace for me though now.

So it looks like my terrible grandfather whom I do not like, is going to live.

Which is a relief.

God I am tired today.

Read the headline: "U.S. Department of Justice is considering filing criminal charges against Binance"

AS

"U.S. Department of Justice is considering filing criminal charges against Beyonce"

And did a double take.

Dear Universe,

I don't like my paternal grandfather. I don't think he is a good person.

But it would be fine by me if I could get through the holidays without him dying. Because feelings are complicated.

Things you like the vendor your working with to say: "Typically restoring from backup doesn't work."

Looking up the shit that went down in Moore County NC over the weekend this morning, to see if there was any more news. https://tech.lgbt/@trashheap/109456676709610380

Tripped over Nazis protesting drag queens in a Lakeland Ohio Celebration of the Arts.

And then tripped over Nazis shutting down a holiday themed drag storytime hour at a church in Columbus Ohio.

All this weekend. #lgbtq

I wonder how long till blowing up Nazi's in videogames becomes a dangerous left wing bias in video games.

Finished my final paper for my sociology course.

Finished my final fake project for my IT Project Managent course.

Talked my pharmacy into giving me seretonin.

Baked 16 low carb biscuits and made 14 low carb vegetarian breakfast sandwhiches and stashed half in the freezer. (quick and easy breakfast for two weeks.)

About to go to husband's office holiday party.

So damn glad I didnt go to work today.

Taking a quick selfie of the new haircut before I scarf down dinner.

Me looking at the amount of work I have left to do before the end of the semester:

Why dd I preorder Front Mission? I dont have the time to play it.

Traveling two hours out to my husband's extended family for Thanksgiving today.

The wierd and distinctly southern tradition of both being accepted by your extended family. And hoping they dont remind you how they throw you under a political bus every election. #lgbtq

Having thanksgiving with my mom tomorrow which should have less of that.
