Louder, for the folks in the back!
"The sustained public hostility from Vance’s own side of the aisle is unlike that faced by other vice presidents in decades"
Uh, remember when they tried to hang one?
Knives are out for Vance in the GOP. His allies say it’s a coordinated ‘op.’ https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/07/24/knives-are-out-vance-gop-his-allies-say-its-coordinated-op/
@jeffjarvis The smart ones are probably thinking that Trump dies in office or has to be removed because of the dementia. So you don't want Vance in any position of strength when the power struggle begins. It's a game of 4 dimensional Survivor.

Après il faudrait que la loi arrive à s'appliquer et si j'en crois cet article de macG c'est pas sûr que quoi que ce soit s'applique
https://www.macg.co/ailleurs/2026/07/interdiction-des-reseaux-sociaux-aux-moins-de-15-ans-chronique-dun-fiasco-annonce-309955
@genetix Oui c'est clair (dans ma rhétorique je fais le choix de partir du principe que la loi va s'appliquer strictement pour pouvoir la critiquer jusqu'au bout.)
(Si vous trouvez qu'on parle trop de l’antisémitisme à LFI, tirez les élus qui postent ces merdes par le colback, ne venez pas me prendre à parti.)
Des élus et candidats LFI rendent hommages à une personne dont le compte est sans aucune ambiguïté possible antisémite (et un complotiste ravagé).
On en est là.
Getting to 16c tonight. I'm so accustomed at this point to the middle 20s, I'm kinda chilly. Turned off all the fans and put on jammy bottoms and houseslippers.
@GeePawHill took me until approximately "jammy bottoms" to realize you were talking about temperature and not the early phase of an ONI run 😂
Well my Wyse 3030 thin client running PiHole has died. I can't complain, it lasted a good few years and cost hardly anything.
Just need to decide whether to replace it with something similar or get something a bit beefier and get into the Proxmox / Home Assistant world...
@derbadian A second hand mini PC is cheap and can be the start of a HomeLab using Proxmox.

@markmason @GeofCox does the crypto currency fad equate to teeming acid rain polluting the canal in this analogy?

'Cryptocurrency' is a misnomer - it isn't really a currency. It's more like assets or negotiable instruments like precious metals, shares or paintings - that of course can sometimes be used to perform some of the functions of currency - value store, swapping, etc - but not all.

@davidgerard ohh, this reminds me David Bowie's song Space Oddity used to celebrate successful moon landings
@RandamuMaki I know what you mean.
I remember coming back from Dublin one weekend and it took a week to drop some phrases in a very weird Dublin accent I'd picked up.
@onepict When someone doesn't have that naturally because their brain is wired differently they might have an aversion to languages they don't already speak, I guess?
Est-ce que l'IA a tué l'émoji ✨ ?
@roipoussiere ça faisait déjà des années que beaucoup l'utilisaient de manière sarcastique, non ? Ou bien c'est seulement dans mes cercles qu'on va ponctuer les responsables de mauvaises nouvelles par "✨" ("le fascisme✨", "Macron✨" etc)
the wife and kid are away at dinocon so i am LIVING IT UP for the weekend, i.e. playing a futurepop playlist on the new speakers a bit louder than usual
mind you i have to keep reminding myself it's friday not saturday and i have to do work today
@davidgerard LOL, I always will volunteer myself to drive to the store, so I can listen to 90's drum and bass and techno, of course at ill advisable levels.

J'ai jamais rien capté au concept du jeu de Démineur.
Oui oui, même le vieux truc de Windows.
@sebsauvage et sur unLisa ?
@otfrom There's literature like Lewis Grassic Gibbon and some Doric Poetry.
But it's not exactly in our National Consciousness the way the Bard is.
Although I suppose it's like Shakespeare and English. A huge influence on our language.
@onepict I'm mostly picking it up as a new Scot in Tayside

Yesterday I've caught the #ISS with my telescope.
I was a quite unorthodox method: the DSO camera was continuously filming through the 200/1000 Newtonian, while I was aiming looking though the viewfinder.
Lots of cleanup and stacking later, here's two pictures, the one on the left from the beginning of the pass, the second while at its peak.
(maybe I'm starting to train for the near future when we'll need to shoot down data-centers from orbit, nobody knows...)
@corpsmoderne That's not the IIS, that's a Tie Fighter.
The ISS is lie, everybody knows that's fake news.
🚨 Google wants MORE biometric data🚨
Google may advertise its new selfie video sign-in feature as a shiny new option to log into your account, but this is just an excuse to collect more of your data 😡
Just when you think the Big Tech can't get more privacy-invading, it does! 🫣
Time to #DEGOOGLE here 👉 https://tuta.com/blog/degoogle-list.

I know I'm European now because I just thought, "Ooh, I'm going to splash out and do 90 minutes of drying for my towels."
@vaurora This is the way 🌞
