Your reminder that this isn't Mastodon, this is the Fediverse. And you can optionally use Mastodon, or many other pieces of fantastic software, to access the Fediverse.

Good news if you've been thinking about buying my Pro Chords Pack. For the next week I'm running a deal where if you buy any three chords you get a E Major thrown in for FREE. -

A lot of job applications have this thing they call an "instant interview" where you get asked questions by a chat bot and you have to answer them. I already feel like a discarded piece of meat going through this process and the fact a human won't even talk to me doesn't make me feel any better.

On a whim I thought "I wonder if anybody has created a fan game based on the character of "Error" from Zelda 2: The Adventures of Link.
They had.
You play as Error and you bang Princess Zelda in graphic detail.

I check twitter once in a while just to see if there are any mentions of Owncast that I should be aware of. I don't follow anybody so Twitter fills my timeline with "recommended" posts.
This is the kind of crap that Twitter thinks I should be looking at. Completely unrelatable bullshit from rich assholes.In conversation from social.gabekangas.com permalink Attachments

We owe a lot to @feditips. Think about maybe throwing a few currency units to thank them for all the hard work. https://liberapay.com/FediThing In conversation from social.gabekangas.com permalink Attachments

Tonight is the annual San Francisco Industrial Music Ball. So next time somebody asks "why do you still live in San Francisco?"... it has an industrial music ball. In conversation from social.gabekangas.com permalink -

"This isn't what users are used to" or "This doesn't match users expectations" is not a bad thing when they're used to awful things from awful companies. Let's give them something new, even when it makes them slightly uncomfortable. It's hard to be different, and it's hard to change people. But it's worth it.

I feel bad because the use cases for Owncast that are the most successful are not the use cases people want to talk about, or are even interested in. For every person doing a "Twitch-style" stream there's a ton of other streams that we'll never see because they're internal or private in some way. It's hard to drum up interest and talk about a project that's mostly used privately. Anything that's not mainstream and for mass public consumption isn't sexy.

I bet you could make a full time living being the people who make those class action lawsuit claim form websites where every member of the suit gets like $3.15 in store credit. In conversation from social.gabekangas.com permalink -

People never used to say "colorways", just "colors". Now everyone says "colorways". In conversation from social.gabekangas.com permalink
