An applause-worthy Mac-user diss thrown at me from Linux diehard @pfcoperez that so good, my mind kept revisiting it the whole day.

A friend is visiting from out of town this month. I’m looking forward to showing all of the TikToks I’ve sent to him that he hasn’t watched. 😆

AI-based upscaling is interesting...it's not so much the upscaling you'd expect as more like..."based on this, reimagine it as something at this resolution".

Misc. details can change, but the overall "feel" mostly remains the same.

e.g. based on a prompt from https://stable-diffusion-art.com/sdxl-prompts/, I upscaled the first image I got, and in the upscaled version, the subject has a completely different blouse, eye colour, different necklace, etc. Still, you can't deny the images are related.

In the year+ since Dobbs, nearly everything that Team "You're Overreacting" said would never happen has happened. It's almost like they were never arguing in good faith. Weird.

Important reporting by Christopher Mathias. Same shit, different day. "Richard Hanania, a visiting scholar at the University of Texas, used the pen name...to write articles where he identified himself as a “race realist.” He expressed support for eugenics and the forced sterilization of “low IQ” people, who he argued were most often Black."

As retired military it ticks me off that the GOP won’t promote people that earned it.
And most importantly it’s detrimental to our national security.

I wish Gran Turismo had proper offline, single-player racing. With a much cleverer AI, a real qualifying session, simulating the whole race weekend.

As it is, you always start last on the grid and it's basically a catch-the-leader type of game: you have to show up with a massively over-powered car, just so you can eventually catch the race leader in time for the race to end 🙄

The little tug. Yes, I have a thing with old vehicles and means of transportation. Modern ships looks boring to me. There is something lovable on the wooden cabins and riveted plates. And I super love tugboats. The little heavy workers of the marine world.

@NfNitLoop took a look at anyhow and at thiserror & they seem nicely done. I'm trying to be disciplined & finish working my way through the official "Rust Book" (only 11 more chapters to go, yay) before I get too deep into other materials, *and* this looks really useful for "real use" code. tnx
