@mcc it doesn't help that strstream is in and stringstream is in so it's easy to just pick the wrong abbreviation that matches either option

(What I'm referring to is that the C++ standard library has a class named "stringstream" but also a class named "strstream" and they're basically the same except "strstream" crashes when you try to use it, and "strstream" isn't supposed to even *be* there it's just an early mistake that got replaced with "stringstream", but it's *still there* so if you accidentally mistype "stringstream" you will unknowingly call into existence this Thing That Should Not Be by the act of naming it)

Hey, today’s my birthday! I am so fortunate, I want for nothing, so I’m asking for something simple: take a moment to show gratitude to someone in your life whom you appreciate, and give what you can to support the most vulnerable people in your community. One more gift for me: forgive yourself, we are all trying our best! 💜

I have ported #systemd to #musl. Properly. Passing all tests, properly. Booting my 2012 Ivy Bridge in 3.2 seconds, properly.
I'm aware of how unpopular this will be in some circles. But change does not happen without competition, and musl environments deserve more than what they have right now. systemd isn't a panacea, it isn't even that great, but it's here, it solves real issues people have, and it's now an option. Not a requirement, but an option.

I sort of love that these two vehicles have the same bed size.
The Kei's is actually a bit more useful because you can fold down the sides.
An electric Kei could be a game changer in cities.

Liz Cheney is a bad person whose power struggle with Trump for control of the GOP ended up with her and Kinsinger being excommunicated. Like Nikki Haley, they represent virtually no one. The GOP doesn't want them and Democrats don't need them. They aren't useful and Democrats need to stop trying to rehabilitate them. They're just a different flavor of Nazis and their approval should fill anyone with shame.

Here's the second set of three images from the very close flyby of Mercury by ESA & JAXA's #BepiColombo mission last night.
As ever, it was a great pleasure & privilege to be with the mission team last night as the spacecraft made contact after the flyby & downlinked the data, & then to discuss what the images show with scientists across Europe & Japan.
