Are there any accounts of Greek media please? I haven't found any so far...
I haven't found any so far but I will try to look again when I do a thread about Greece.
🎉 Great News!
After serving brunch at NECHV this morning, I visited my mother, Millie—a 2x cancer survivor (breast & lung)—in Dorchester to celebrate her annual checkup being 100% ALL CLEAR! 🎀🤍
Of course, I couldn’t leave without a plate of my fav chuletas and tostones. She’s my hero! 🇩🇴❤️

The kart racing game demo is actually a perfect demo of LLM-generated games: as soon as I opened it my phone got like 20 degrees hotter, and it requires no player input aside from holding down "go" to win. It can imitate the form of a game in the least efficient way possible while having none of what makes a game a game.
@alfredbaudisch certainly location, location, location. .. Foot traffic ona fedi is an order less. But I don't do x. So, it's one sale more here!
@poetaster thank you!

Bijeenkomst Schrijfmaand Vakbonden en Arbeidersgeschiedenis op Wikipedia
Techwerkers, schrijf mee aan de (tech)vakbonds- en arbeidersbeweging op Wikipedia! Wikizaterdag: 19 september 2026 in Utrecht op het kantoor van Wikimedia Nederland. Bevestigde spreker zal zijn de vakbondshistoricus Sjaak van der Velden, die een presentatie zal geven over de rol van vrouwen in stakingen, vakbonden en de arbeidersbeweging. Daarna kun je gaan bewerken!
And... this is probably a thing that Mastodon hates, but from itch's stats, almost EVERY sale came from X. Unfortunately the majority of artists and gamedevs are still there (I never deleted my account there, though I didn't open it for 2 years, coming back recently).
It would have sold <50 units if I hadn't posted on X.
And they changed "the algorithm" last week or so, my timeline shows only: pixelart, indie games, Blender, Godot, etc. It's really good.

Over the past 7 years, Amazon has been secretly charging the winning bidder an amount equal to *their own* sealed bid, *not* the amount that the next-highest bidder was willing to pay (plus a penny):

@FreakyFwoof I'd just be neutral, because while I obviously don't like a lot of the shit Musk has done over the years, he's not like the Fediverse purists who say that you're a bad person for being on X, like its a crime against humanity or some extremist shit.
@alexchapman @FreakyFwoof Musk doesn't do extremist shit yet he does nazi salutes in front of millions of people. Okay.
I have not yet had a bowel movement today. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Wait, that's not a lie, so does that make me... Oh, no.
