Would love to, need more/better trains.

Yeah, current company has their internal git server default to master and it was a little odd first time I created a new repo. Luckily all the CI templates can recognize either name so I just switched it.

Bought a lifetime pass, switched to Jellyfin after way too much Tidal promotion on my server.

I just downloaded the .deb (unless it was an AppImage) and it ran without further tweaking.

The trailer didn’t really draw me in. Lots of chanting and some kind of AI mind control maybe? But who do I care about and what’s their world-saving mission?

Cute — though the visual gag fits a little better with infinite recursion that infinite loop.

Lady in the background: I told you we should not have gotten cats.

Software union? (Where?)

I’ve only read R/G/B, thanks for the recommendations!

Thanks for the extensive write up, I’d seen The Truth We Live With not didn’t know its place in, or the scope of, Rockwell’s career & political expression.

Nope, I’m not getting this one to work. Different joke?

Summary of studies for anyone interested.

Gustave Courbet:

I recently learned it’s the larvae (little black and orange alligator looking things) that do most of the eating. We ordered ladybugs this year, most of them flew away, but they left little orange oval eggs on the back of a few leaves. When the larvae hatched, they demolished the aphids.

Similarly, in the US Northeast, I learned about the civil rights movement as a solved problem, and that slavery was basically the only (and long gone) system of oppression we’d had. “Black and brown people have their equal rights now, carry on!”

Dante and Virgil [are] traveling through Hell’s eighth circle, which is Fraud, and specifically the “damned” men known as Capocchio, who was known as an alchemist and heretic, and Gianni Schicchi, who reportedly impersonated Buoso Donati in a gruesome fight.

Beth Mole, a writer at Ars Technica, has a fun example with Rat Lungworm: Burning in woman’s legs turned out to be slug parasites migrating to her brain.

It started with a bizarre burning sensation in her feet. Over the next two days, the searing pain crept up her legs. Any light touch made it worse, and over-the-counter pain medicine offered no relief.

and so on until it’s diagnosed, then some lifecycle/vector explanation:

For instance, if a slug or snail traverses a leaf of lettuce, leaving a slime trail in its wake, the leaf can be contaminated with the larvae.

Yes — I think part of the lesson is to document the rationale and the compromises as much or more than the intended functionality.

This is Pacu Jalur?

I just searched for “stereo pair MRI”, I didn’t have others that I’ve seen. Glad you enjoyed them!
