@juergen_hubert And why did it take seven full versions before someone thought to add "none"?

@amin Back to the states? Or back to Asia?

A friend of mine sent me a video of someone making a woodworking bench, and said 'I want to make a bench like this'. So I started out to make a CAD model of it. This is not exactly working drawings, which I still need to do, but it does allow me to understand how the bench is constructed.

Lately I have been adding more and more YouTube channels to my feed reader.

Subscribing to stuff via RSS and newsletters are really great ways to escape the algorithmic feeds.

Edit: Seriously! RSS and newsletter all the things!

Today is the 10th anniversary of the Honest Government Ads 🥳 What a privilege to have been able to cover a decade of shitfuckery.

Thanks to all our Patrons, past and present; all the actors, animators, legal advisors, researchers, tech-helpers, everyone who lent a hand, shared our work and left supportive comments over the years.

The work never ends of course. So we celebrated this milestone by filming our 110th episode (which will be out next week)!

Love—Giordano, Lucy, Luca and Juno 💛🧡💜🩵

🐧 Linux Developers Looking At Retiring The x32 ABI - Phoronix

｢ The x32 code was a nice concept for helping lower memory footprint requirements while otherwise making use of the x86_64 capabilities, but with its limited adoption and x86_64 simply being the de facto standard these days, Linux kernel developers are looking at phasing out the x32 ABI. The x32 ABI was added in Linux 3.4 back in 2012 plus also required updated compiler support too ｣

Piantedosi vuole riempire l’Italia di CPR

Il governo annuncia nuovi centri in sei regioni e altri 106 posti nelle strutture esistenti

@amin The feeling comes more often when you're an old guy like me.

I ended up riding. Worth it.

I put in a paper for #loco2026 (deadline 29 May EOA)

"Estimating the growth in emissions from AI data centres"

https://lancaster-university.github.io/loco2026/

The aim of the paper is to model the emissions ensuing from the growth scenarios put forward by the IEA, McKinsey and the AI industry. We created a very detailed model for this. Here is a sneak preview of one of the graphs in the paper.

It's important to remember that John Cornyn is an asshole too.

In Texas? An enormous asshole beat a slightly smaller asshole, that God forsaken state is not in play.

Today in the classroom:

First year chem will clean up their cyanotype stuff and then review for a redox/electrochem test tomorrow. This is the last unit test of the year before the final exam next week.

Second year chem didn't want to cyanotype, but that's okay. I'll get some rocket candy materials out today for those who want to try, but many of them are working on final projects for other classes or finishing missing work.

@cmconseils Unless there really *is* a flatulist performing.

Because I would need to see that.

Fascism flips everything on its head. When the worst criminals are in charge, decent people are branded criminals.

L’ultima lotta vinta è stata quella di due operai cinesi il 25 maggio che si sono ribellati contro paghe da fame e turni di diciotto ore. Leggi il reportage di Annalisa Camilli.

A Prato lo sciopero funziona

@ainmosni There is certainly an amount of that too, yes...

@rrb I think I'd take my own experience as more of an introduction to sticking out in a different group, particularly in a way where you can't hide that difference.

I've been grateful for the various communities that sprung up on various platforms over the years.

Not just for introducing me to other folks lived experience, but for helping me to contextualise my self. Particularly with queerness.

I also am grateful for folks sharing what they read and for accounts like @thecontinent
