Saw the news that Tesla is now accepting Bitcoin payments for cars, so I looked up some figures and did some math.
According to Tesla's own figures, a Model 3 saves 30 tons of CO2 emissions over its lifetime compared to a traditional car. A Model 3 costs 0.69-1.21 BTC. Mining one BTC results in 257 tons of CO2 emissions.
For the next time someone tells you Elon Musk is saving the planet.
and here's the original documentary on the Isolation Game Jam 2019 in Laxahvammur, Iceland. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRnMK2wzM20
In 2019 Subpixel visited me and did a documentary on the Isolation Game Jam I host. They just recently released a lovely "Behind the scenes" video from that documentary. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCSxEK9-N94
Proud of being part of this project. Can't wait to see what the artists cook up next of this cursed hellscape https://twitter.com/PrehensileTales/status/1385317440868003848
NFT stands for "NO! Fuck That!"

A great Access to Arasaka EP named ":port" is free to download.
Excellent ambient/ominous IDM-ish stuff... so good!
"Enjoy the sounds of intergalactic robot scouts scanning a strange dead world, filled with awe inspiring testaments to the wealth and technology of forgotten cultures, laid to rest in wars of ages past."

Eruption has started in south Iceland. not far from the international airport and Reykjavík.
I don't know why but I watch this at least every other two years or so. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PDL337jgys

I've released a new tool called plus-x, which allows developers on Windows to set executable permissions for their game binaries in order to make them easier to run on Linux or Mac OS. It's small, easy to use, and has a rad logo https://cheeseness.itch.io/plus-x #gamedev #indiedev #linux
This morning's listening. Been searching for a paid download version of this album (Cicada - Beautiful) for an hour now without luck. Looks like I will need to get the cd off discogs marketplace instead. #theStudio

I love @godotengine and their use of @RocketChat for their discussions. Too bad they couldn't use an open, privacy-respecting solution like @peertube for their live and recorded video sessions, instead of YouTube. Something to consider for next time!

In the last year Google has banned: the Element app, the LBRY app, and several Fediverse apps. If you get all of your apps from a single corporation, be it Google or Apple, you should make an effort to change that.
If you have an Android phone F-Droid is an alternative app repository, and it’s very easy to install! All of the previously mentioned apps have been available from F-Droid throughout being dropped from the Play Store.
If you have an iPhone, please consider other options for your next device. Apple does not respect you enough as a user to consider you possibly more capable of deciding what you should install on your phone than they are. That is absurd; please stop rewarding this behavior with your money.

So, I've always been interested in Totally Accurate Battle Simulator by the awesome people at Landfall Games but never really bought it or played it. That will change today as I learned that someone made a Myth mod for it! https://tabs.mod.io/myth-tabs-total-conversion-131
All the news about Whatsapp and the max exodus to Signal (i do use and love Signal btw, but I do recognize its shortcomings) made me think how amazing and stable XMPP really is.
Does anyone have any recommendations for stable XMPP hosts that offer custom domain support?
