@Air_Quotes_Comedian lol, I block someone at least once a week, sometimes just because they're annoying 🤣
@redsad Either I'm just super-tolerant, or everybody on my feed is just the absolute best.

no, people who want to protect their peace also block people. nobody owes you access to their posts, just because you want to be an asshole in their replies, tyvm
@redsad “only people not worth my time get blocked”

@redsad I blocked somebody once but can't recall why. I think I wrote a post about it and everything, it was quite the day.
that's the rule for me
if someone is blocked and i remember why, they stay blocked
if someone is blocked and i can't remember why, they become unblocked

@redsad
I block as I damn well please! I'm incapable of being block shamed. My hunger for blocking has only deepened since I joined Mastodon. With more blocking power than ever before, I no longer have to settle for merely blocking an individual asshole. I can block them and the whole damn instance they rode in on, and the cops can't do shit about it! Mwa ha ha ha! -

Only assholes whine and complain about being blocked. -

@redsad only bullies call ppl who block them cowards. Blocking/ignoring/kicking ppl out is everybodies right. No one needs to be abused in order to make bullies feel better.

Coward tells you they are going to block you for a shit reason ... And you can't respond
Cowards
Block anyone you want ... But really, you don't need to tell them

@redsad Heck, I block people for using a language I don't understand.

"Relationships" are always 2-way. Part of that is taking responsibility for ones own actions and consideration for others.
2 qualities lacking so much at the moment....
When someone blocks you I consider it a possibile moment of self reflection about how much consideration is applied in both directions and how each party takes responsibility for their actions and lives.
If a person wants to maintain their own integrity after these considerations then blocking is fine.

@redsad I prefer MUTE and totally agree we all get to choose.
Assholes aren't worth it, of course.

@DeliaChristina @redsad It's so weird to me. I block even if I know it's me who's being unreasonable, the same way I do irl. Why should social media be any different? "I just don't gel with you for some reason. Therefore we're not pals. Life is short, bye". 👋🏼🤷🏻♂️

@redsad I don't understand why it's on us to justify this. "Why do you feel entitled to have access to me? Why is that you're automatic assumption?"

@MelissaBearTrix yeah, blocking is fine. Replying to someone with some dumb statement and then blocking them so they can't respond isn't.
If I block someone, I let them have the last word in whatever was going on because blocking means I've decided I'm not going to gain anything out of further interaction.

@stellarsarah @MelissaBearTrix @redsad
The only time it makes sense to reply before blocking is to give other people reading the thread an argument against whatever bullshit the blocked idiot was trying to push. That's only if it's an important topic, though, like trans people being allowed to pee in public toilets or why genocide is bad, actually.

Are you allowed to protest the war on Iran at #NoKings / #NoTyrants ?

@informapirata @signorina37 @eticadigitale ottima analisi: un concentrato di verità assoluta, senza se e senza ma.
Io spesso mi soffermo sugli aspetti della tecnologia dove eri praticamente costretto a leggere il manuale per saperla usare, e avere una dose di pazienza non indifferente, tipo regolare l'azimuth di un lettore di cassette, ma c'era anche il discorso giochi, decisamente più incisivo e comune, che avevo "rimosso".
Con le Crystal Ball e il DAS ci sono cresciuto 😃

Slug Algorithm for On-GPU Rendering of Fonts with Bézier Curves now in Public Domain
The Slug Algorithm has been around for a decade now, mostly quietly rendering fonts and later entire GUIs using Bézier curves directly on the GPU for games and other types of software, but due to its proprietary nature it didn’t see much adoption outside of commercial settings. This has now changed with its author, [Eric Lengyel], releasing it to the public domain without any limitations.
Originally [Eric] had received a software patent in 2019 for the algorithm that would have prevented anyone else from implementing it until the patent’s expiration in 2038. Since 2016 [Eric] and his business have however had in his eyes sufficient benefit from the patent, making it unnecessary to hold on to it any longer and retain such exclusivity.
To help anyone with implementing their own version of the algorithm, there is a GitHub repository containing reference shader implementations with plenty of inline comments that should help anyone with some shader experience get started.
Although pretty niche in the eyes of the average person, the benefits of using on-GPU rendering of elements like fonts are obvious in terms of rendering optimization. With this change open source rendering engines for games and more can finally also use it as well.
Thanks to [Footleg] for the tip.

@Moosader it's really good too

We report during the half hour in the evening when birds cannot help but sing. Recently, a few more species have joined the sparrows that kept on chirping through winter. We can only really pick out the blackbirds in the mix. It gets late, and dark, and the birds do not quiet.
