Hello there!
I boost a lot of posts, but I have a few things to say every now and then.
I am largely fine with boosting posts from people I disagree with even on significant, dividing issues. I usually don't, however, if they actively advocate for these ideas... so it goes :/

OK, so in Unicode you have these special characters\*, combining characters. When you put a combining character after another character, it alters it. For example, U+0301 "COMBINING ACUTE ACCENT" ( ́) will put an accent on the previous character (like é).
\*not "special characters" as in "printing chars" vs "special chars" special characters, if you're familiar with that.

@kyle I feel like 5% of what I have learned is from college, and the other 95% is from my own research, practice, and manual reading.

Saw a message on BlueSky that resonated with me just now, about how autistic characters should be allowed to be villains.
And it made me realise. Someone’s gender, race, disability, gender identity etc shouldn’t be a factor as to if they’re a hero or villain in a story.
The issue with many forms of media is that it seems to go to two extremes:
1. Every member of a group is evil because [writer prejudice]
2. No member of a group can be evil because it could be offensive

Another warning about these AI devices. I'm probably more pro-AI than many who will read this, but if you're going to use AI it should be as open as possible and local. People spent hundreds of dollars on these devices, and as of March they won't even be good as a paperweight. There's a possibility someone can hack these and extend their life somehow, but I wouldn't hold out hope.

@mike To be fair, they're AI features. Unless they run locally, "paywalling" them is reasonable as they're a service.

@Olivia001@toot.community Wow, looks just like our dog when she was really young. We are pretty sure her name was Rita before we got her. We named her Millie!
So maybe, Rita?
@CM30 I don't know man, but I'm set up to delete most cookies when I close the browser :/

I found one of the games that I remember playing when I was little: #TheNeverhood
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Neverhood
It brings me back good memories but also frustrating moments being stuck.
I have to try again!
