Ruining It For Everyone Else Since 2004
I made my first poll on Mastodon! Since I’ve been getting some engagement over in the land of John Mastodon – I’ve decided to experiment with a bit of a poll. It already has a couple of votes, we’ll see what the final results are tomorrow evening! Giving me enough time to start my weekend!
I just wanted all y’all to know this is a thing:

Goodnight everybody!
Open Thread.
I don’t have much I want to write about tonight, so I offer up this cursed image to share with you all:
Open Thread folks, have at it. :trollface:

I do find it funny that taking this to a prom is bad, but cosplaying in this stuff is totally ok. As someone who collects a bunch of things relating to the orient and enjoys wearing other worldly clothes I took an interest in this article about this girls prom dress.
Like many other teenagers preparing for prom, Utah senior Keziah Daum wanted to find a dress that would stand out, “something that would be more unique and bold and had some sort of meaning to it,” she said in an interview with The Washington Post.
I always find it rather amusing how people can get bent out of shape over articles of clothing. I collect Kimonos (and even bought one recently), Cheongsam’s, Hanfu’s, etc. To me if you’re not supposed to wear a particular garment due to your heritage then why are these items being sold worldwide? You never really hear about people complaining about the origins of the T Shirt, and how people around the world wear them. They originally started as undergarments and eventually evolved to a point of everyday wear. We should learn and embrace other cultures and what they bring us… like good food. 😛
I just think it’s funny to hear of a country banning a letter of the alphabet because it’s a “subversive and intolerable character”. Now all I can think of is a campy superhero cartoon where N is public eNemy #1. :v:
I like the concept, as someone who runs with dual screens when I’m at home, and I think it would be pretty sweet to have multiple screens for a wider view or even extra places to put chats and recording programs, but that design… The motor that deploys the extra screens will wear out eventually. If they came up with a way to connect the displays to one another as optional pieces. Then I wouldn’t have to worry about another set of failing components down the line.
Another problem I have with it is the keyboard/touchpad layout. It makes sense to me to have it in the center to make room for the numpad, why did they take it out and put the touchpad there?
Overall I say Razer has a good idea with the displays, but the implementation… I guess in due time we’ll see how it holds up.
Ok, everyone get your drugs ready ppl. One of my steam buddies sent me this:
That is the best worst acid trip I’ve ever seen. Never thought I’d live to see Donald Trump as a chibi, though with those little sausage hands… :v
I give you… Giant Hornet.
You know YouTube’s copyright takedowns are bad when newly released games start to include the following option:
I never thought I’d see the day when a game (and possibly more to come) would basically kneel before Google and the music industry to prevent potential copyright takedowns to those who may choose to show off their gameplay. We have fair use laws and Google lets these bigger industries trample all over them day in and day out. Things like this won’t fix the problems, it’ll only feed them.
I want someone to create a website for generic music, and the music on the site would consist of copyrighted songs being played by other musicians backwards with different lyrics JUST to piss off the big bad music industry. Naturally they should start with Metallica’s songs, it would be such poetic justice. :v
