Denis Kitchen should be mentioned alongside #comicbook avant-garde guerrillas like Crumb, Spiegelman, and Eisner. He created the #CBLDF and published #Gay Comix. He fought for the artistic expression of the oppressed and marginalized. Now a #documentary is on the way. boingboing.net/2025/02/2…

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Yellowjackets - Fasten Up (2025). The title track on this album is a monster of #JazzFusion. The rest of the cuts run the gamut of fusion with emotional highs and lows. Now in my library for regular listens. #music #jazz youtube.com/playlist

Anyone else surprised by the bombastic #hypocrisy of #TFG all hot for freedom and independence and the power of #capitalism, but pissed his pet project to disenfranchise #BIPOC Americans is being ignored by #Apple? It’s like he thinks he’s king or something. #uspol #tech appleinsider.com/articles/…

This upcoming #Steam game looks like a real hoot! It’s called Castle V. Castle where you do just that. At its core it is a turn-based card battler and it leans hard into the monochrome aesthetics of the 70’s & it appears to be loaded with humor. #videogames www.rockpapershotgun.com/castle-v-…

Do you have a notification telling you some app like #Zoom is “Accessing Your Screen” on #Apple’s #macOS #Sequoia? Well, it seems to be a known bug, and #AppleInsider seems to have a fix. I can’t verify this because I keep crapps like Zoom off my machines. #tech #helpdesk appleinsider.com/articles/…

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Michael Penn - MP4 (Days Since a Lost Time Accident)(2000). Suggestion: Dive into No Myth, Free-For-All, and Resigned, in that order, before moving on to this. This is Penn’s album and not radio-ready, but It’s deep and textured. #music #pop www.youtube.com/watch

The tea on the Framework 2nd Gen 2025 event
So, the #Framework event just ended and here’s the breakdown:
For additional deets, click through. #tech #righttorepair youtu.be/dnCGwii7F…
Let’s dig in… First off, the Framework 13" laptop has been updated for 2025 with new translucent bezels (including the crucial Atomic Purple) and AMD Ryzen AI 300 series APUs. Framework is also working on updating the Framework 16" laptop with new large key stabilizers to eliminate noise and a new one-key module (more on that when I can get onto the website). The keyboard is also being updated with a Copilot logo, or …

Ten minutes until the #Framework 2nd Gen event where they will be announcing new product(s). There have been clues, but it remains a mystery. My guess is it’s a #SteamOS gaming handheld or settop box. They’ve also said that #AMD is involved. #tech #youtube #videogames www.youtube.com/live/-8k7…

You know, @appleinsider@mastodon.social, I’d love to cover your piece about the Steve Jobs Archive celebrating his life on the day he died, but when you don’t include any links to anything outside of your website, I cannot. Not helpful. #tech #apple #journalism

PROTIP For #Apple designer Susan Kare: Ditch the bling and make them affordable to actual human beings, and I bet you sell a lot more. Wouldn’t it be nice to sell many thousands instead of a few dozen? I think so. Nice designs, though. #tech #blockchain #capitalism www.theverge.com/news/6182…

Looks like #AYANEO is teasing a new #RetroGaming handheld they are dubbing the Classic, which appears to be a simplified version of their Pocket Micro, a pricey modern take on the Nintendo Game Boy Micro.

I have precisely one #MechanicalKeyboard, a Keychron K5 SE low profile and its likely to stay that way. I recognize a lot of people really like them, though, and these custom keycaps reviewed by #TheGadgeteer look amazing, especially the Mixed set. #tech #mods the-gadgeteer.com/2025/02/2…

One of the more reliable indicators of #Apple preparing to launch a new version of a system is when stocks on older machines start to drop. This appears to be happening now with the M3 #MacBookAir. The current #rumor is for a March release. #tech appleinsider.com/articles/…
UPDATE: The previous version of this post cited the current MBA with an M4, but it was supposed to be the M3. The updated version of the MBA should be getting the M4 soon.

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Yes - The Ladder (1999). To this day it still surprises me that this is their 18th studio album. The entire album feels like a wonderful blend of classic and 90125/Big Generator era Yes with some clever callbacks. #music #progrock www.youtube.com/watch

#Musk and #TFG and the #MAGA masses are so accustomed to lying and getting away with it, they just spew meaningless garbage without a care in the world? Something now immediately contradicts something said a week or so ago? Who cares! It’s not like anyone gives a damn, anyway, and if they do there’s nothing they can do to stop it, so again… who cares!
Take #Xitter’s #CommunityNotes as an example. They were great because Musk didn’t need to pay people to keep toxic shit off the Official Social Network of Shitposting® because the “community” would handle that. But now that those same notes are being “gamed” by filthy libs, “he” is going to have to “fix” them, so I …
