Do you have a strong opinion about eating cold pizza? I don't care what that opinion is, just how strong it is.

I am curious if neurodivergent people differ from neurotypical people.

Magnificent is the new company that @lightweight and I have founded, which I may have alluded to mysteriously from time to time. We will be providing libre web applications like Nextcloud, OnlyOffice, and BigBlueButton to organisations that don't have the time or resources to self-host.

Settling to watch the final day of the #sumo championship that's ended yesterday. Not the most star-studded basho, but I know who I'm rooting for.

basically graphics cards only make sense if the numbers don't actually matter. obviously graphics was a good example, but now we have machine learning as well.

but what they are not good at is numbers that fucking matter.

while i remember: graphics cards are really bad at 64 bit floating point.

like 50-100x worse. when they even bother to give the correct result.

I'm gonna take advantage of the long weekend to soft launch my business doing portrait, cosplay, and gaming photography.

If you're in the #Seattle area, and want photos for speaker profiles, of your gaming group, or a bunch of stuff in between, hit me up.

What do I mean by "soft launch"? I know the website is incomplete and still kinda sucks, I have limited availability for now until I get through my surgery next month, and my portfolio is still a bit thin.

California and Colorado legislated that Linux distributions, being free and open-source, are exempt from the age verification in operating systems, unless they are proprietary like SteamOS (and Windows).

Too bad the systemd developers already complied with fascism in advance before the bills were even finalized.

Will Lennart Poettering and his followers now please remove the birthDate field from systemd?

P.S.: If you reply with any variation of "You need to calm down," I will block you.

I mean this is me complaining that LinkedIn, the website which models all human interaction as either performing employment or seeking it out, has a data model that fails to accurately model things that are not employment. so I don't know what I expected I guess

I originally had it as an "experience" because there doesn't appear to be a way to time-bound an "honor". if you're inducted or elected to an honorary role with actual — if minor — obligations and perquisites, it doesn't seem like there's a way to say that that has ended? Like right now I'm an active PSF fellow but I could request a transition to emeritus status and then I wouldn't be any more.

finally fixed my LinkedIn profile to switch "PSF Fellow" from an "experience" to an "honor" so it stops telling me and everyone who asks that I work at the PSF

sorry, this isn't a recognised unit. not only is it not SI, but it's not even measured in football fields, animals or states.

This is the way. Unless the profits from data centers return to communities, it's just extraction.

And data centers don't really bring that many jobs. They're a few guys replacing parts as stuff burns out. Maintenance on power feeds. But mostly they sit there, trying to stay cool.

We need to talk more about how critical it is to be

- in the right place
- at the right time
- with the right network
- and the perfect experience
- in the right state of health
- with the right financial situation
- possessing the desired personality

for everything to work out the way a lot of social media has geared us to expect it to happen.

If even just one of those things is slightly off kilter or complicated, things often don't work out.

So I was bedridden for 16 months, and I've been focusing on getting employed since then. I'm very in debt and dealing with a brand new health problem of constant migraines, which is taking forever to address.

If you've got a couple dollars, it'd really help. Thanks so much!
