Looking for feminist scholarship on the divide between what counts as high-tech (masculine, engineering) and low-tech (feminine, crafting). I read stuff ages ago in grad school on this, but I would like to build on it for something I'm writing right now.

@gamegrower Still waiting for the turn, though the 5.5 year old is now officially done with the 3.5 year olds "baby" music.

Well the kid finally described some music we were listening to on the radio as “cringy” and I died a little inside

@logodaedalus @csuci @pomonacollege Thanks!

Excited to announce that Joseph C Osborn at Pomona College and I just received an NEH grant to work on improvements to our GISST system to cite and analyze program and gameplay states! @csuci @pomonacollege

@medieninitiativ I'm just so tired.

@ekaltman I've done it at least 10 times in the past week -- and I've received at least as many!

It's not just me, right? EVERYBODY is forgetting the attachments with their emails these days...

want steel to build a particle detector? you have to source low-background steel—manufactured before contamination from mid-20th century nuclear testing. want to build a text or image generator AI? you’ll have to source low-background training data—collected before 2022.

@logodaedalus Well I didn't need to be more horrified today, but here we are. I am glad to report that it did not produce a better justification for my research than I do, yet I'm assuming.

I am utterly incensed.

is this thing still on? feel like I'm participating in a couple future theses / books on the demise

CLIR and @SoftPresNetwork celebrate #WDPD2022 with “Supporting Software Preservation Services in Research and Memory Organizations,” a new report that identifies concepts, skill sets, barriers, and future directions related to software preservation work. hubs.li/Q01rmKC-0

@Sierra_OffLine Congrats! Can't wait.

Calling #digipres folks with interest in videogame collecting. I'm hoping to document videogame collections and projects... Of course I made a sheet. Let me know what's missing / wrong? Or maybe this exists already somewhere else - like Wikipedia?docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

One of the great frauds in recent memory was perpetrated by the San Francisco Chronicle, which told voters that Brooke Jenkins was "progressive." Here is Sean Hannity, one of many on the far right praising Jenkins for returning the War on Drugs to SF.

@Dave_Parisi It's also pretty half baked, so I did need to muck around in the command line / Linux system apps to get some things working correctly. That said, I'm finally getting to the Persona series.

@Dave_Parisi I have a 512 and have been really loving the deck, don't know if the top end one was particularly worth it, but its certainly allowed me to get to games I would not have given my current dad schedule. Also, it was way larger than I was expecting.

OK Steam Deck havers: it's my turn in line for pre-order. Verdicts at this stage? Was feeling spendy a year ago and put in for the 512 but wow that price tag...

I love grant reviews. 1) Good. 2) Good. 3) I couldn't follow this and have no idea what you are talking about or why you are doing it.
