@tenderlove@mastodon.social I would have written a shorter commit message, but I did not have the time.

A Flash Player emulator written in Rust. Contribute to ruffle-rs/ruffle development by creating an account on GitHub.

How retro kick ass is that? Flash is resurrected sans the neglected, proprietary, security ridden, plugin bs of Adobe; thanks to Rust, and modern day sandboxed WebAssembly. No plugin required; small, compact, compatible engine, that unlocks decades of lost SWF content in all its vector visuals, MP3 stereo, and ActionScript-y glory. https://github.com/ruffle-rs/ruffle #flash #adobe #webdev #javascript #rust #retrogaming

Just sent out the first issue of my newsletter Own Your Web. 🎉 Hope you all like it! 🤗 Also, let me know what could be improved. #OwnYourWeb #newsletter https://buttondown.email/ownyourweb/archive/issue-01/

Mastodon should have a list of people you've blocked along with a saved copy of the post that made you block them. The field could be called "Final Straw".

Attached: 1 image New #introduction to connect with all the new awesome people here 😊 Hi! I'm Skaly, an awkward neurodivergent queer who makes a lot of projects and does their best to be as ambitious as possible and to work with the different abilities and disabilities and not against them. I make a living from art, and it's super fluid and challenging but I do what I love, music, handmade jewelry, poetry and film. I'm 23 and UK based but looking to move to the US next year.

Enforcing per-repo privileges on AWS with GitHub Actions OIDC, without session tags - GitHub - Skyscanner/gha-aws-oidc-sample: Enforcing per-repo privileges on AWS with GitHub Actions OIDC, without...

super excited to be able to publicly share some of my work from the last few months :) Wanted to use GitHub Actions' OIDC IdP for per-repo access to AWS, but got stuck on AWS session tags not being compatible with GHA's claims? What If: You used an inline session policy https://github.com/Skyscanner/gha-aws-oidc-sample

Attached: 1 image I bought a cup of coffee from Zero Green on North Street, it came in an edible cup. Normally I carry a reusable cup, but I was happy that I'd forgotten to bring it. The woman behind the counter informed me that the edible cup starts to break down after 40 minutes, so it's best to drink up before then. What a fantastic way to reduce waste. Has anyone else tried this? #ZeroGreen #NorthStreetBristol #BS3 #Bedminster #EdibleCup #ZeroWaste #CoffeeCup

Urgh. Got woken up at 3:19am by a test of the earthquake alert system that was supposed to happen at 10:19am... but they accidentally scheduled it in UTC instead of California time zone! I mean, time zones are hard, but still - such a rookie error https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-10-19/california-earthquake-early-warning-test-goes-off-seven-hours-early

Yes, I’ll talk about work sometimes, but this is my personal account; I’m not a technical support channel. Please send your bug reports elsewhere.

Started playing Deathloop yesterday and it’s exactly what I wanted from a Dishonored followup! Dishonored 2 is one of the few games I’ve played multiple times through, fully explored/unlocked everything and learnt how to speed run. And Deathloop leans into all those aspects in such a brilliant way!

Reddit is killing its blockchain based Community Points program because “the resourcing needed was unfortunately too high to justify”. An intern probably pointed out you could build an equivalent user points feature more quickly, cheaply and securely by just using a SQL database. Like, you know, Reddit’s existing karma system. 🙃 https://techcrunch.com/2023/10/17/reddit-is-phasing-out-community-points-blockchain-rewards/

Mmm, I had the loveliest of birthdays! I made some new cute friends, hung-out with mates, saw a fav person of mine, etc. Oh, and I looked like the cutest gothic lolita birthday princess you could imagine! 😸😸 Also thank you to everyone here who supports me who wished me a lovely birthday or sent me a gift, you're the best!

I’m very busy with Other Things in the run up to BarCamp on the 11th, so preparing a brand new talk would be a very silly thing to do. However, my stupid insomnia brain just thought of the perfect session idea, so now I’ve got to throw some slides together. Goodbye all of my free time until #bclxii
