"And I know I’m a collaboration
Bacteria, carbon and light
A florid orchestration
A recipe of fortune and time
Yeah, it's a lot to take in
When I try I see a short word"

(Still in love with The Beths, from Tāmaki Makaurau, Aotearoa, and pop gems that shine even brighter played acoustic)

Telling people who are against plundering the environment, theft, plagiarism and labor exploitation that they are doing this complaining because they haven't "invested" in using tools based on such exploitation is quite ridiculous isn't it?

Stéphanie's picks are always amazing.

@tostoini.it have a look! It has your name all over it. 🙂

I love creatives projects like that mushroom color atlas. Julie Beeler experimented with dyeing with mushrooms and documented a whole giant color palette, with instructions for each type about the specific process.

Look what they did to Notepad. Shut the fuck up. This is Notepad. You are not welcome here. Oh yeah "Let me use Copilot for Notepad". "I'm going to sign into my account for Notepad". What the fuck are you talking about. It's Notepad.

Windows Notepad, the native simple text editor, now has formatting options and a Copilot button.

There’s no such thing as inaccessible colors. It’s all about combinations. Yes, even yellow! And Purple.
I built 6 WCAG-tested palettes, and share my process in a full tutorial (with video) to prove it.

Friends, this is a veeeery long shot but does anyone know if and where I can acquire paper copies of net magazine? I know it's been out of print for years, but I'm wondering if it might still be possible to get a copy of two or three of its issues from 10 years ago. 🥹

I'd rather listen to Thin Lizzy-oh

There's something wrong with me, I'm a cuckoo

@chapitreonze.bsky.social sì, per il momento usiamo Tidal. Oltre allo streaming acquisto su Bandcamp i dischi dei musicisti che seguo, in particolare durante i Bandcamp Fridays, i giorni in cui tutto il valore dell'acquisto del disco (tolte le commissioni di pagamento) va agli artisti.
