Last week I discovered that Akko - the mechanical keyboard manufacturer - had many Pepe stickers in their official Discord. I politely suggested this was an oversight and asked them to address this. I was banned from the Discord a few seconds later.

At that point I emailed support. No answer. I emailed again 2 days ago, asking why I was banned for bringing up their fascist-aligned images in their Discord and still haven't heard back. They were very responsive when I bought their switches a month ago.

At this point I'm not buying any more Akko products.

Thinking about when the wall of the salt warehouse collapsed and it turned out to just be full of loose salt, like a child might imagine

I think about this a lot because fedi does have A Way of getting people to embrace Goblin Mode and it's grand, people being weird internet gremlins is what makes this place fun

The people on the bird site were aghast that we thought it cool these LED dance poles were powered by Raspberry Pi.

We got in a lot of trouble. It was most unexcellent.

Are Pi-powered poles cool here?

Sometimes I see posts on here like “mastodon is too serious and businesslike, it needs more selfies and shitposts” and I’m like are we even using the same website but then I remember we very literally are not

if you wonder why I happen to fav one of your posts from three days ago, I'm not stalking you, that's just where the sidekiq backlog is right now

(yes this is an attempt to try to get other instances to start sending posts to here again)

by looking at how often the audio system requests more samples and doing the resampling on my end, I now have a near spot on sync

after the first buffer segment, because of course there's an issue

a friend is banned from PayPal, and let me tell you, it's a pain to be banned from PayPal

right now I'm having to help them get paid out from sites that use PayPal, and then send them the money with Wise, because apparently the "transfer money internationally" market has barely any competition

the audio data goes through like

my software -> windows (50 ms buffer) -> resampling -> audio system (??? ms buffer) -> playback

I'm gonna need to do as much in my software as possible, aren't I
