I started a rewatch of the West Wing a couple of days ago. I really liked this show, and I've watched through it a few times. But not in the last decade or so, because I worried it would not land well. I worried it would just make me sad, or angry.

But it turns out that no, I'm having fun with it. It's impossibly naive, but that's fine. I'm reading it almost like a fairy tale. And in that light, it's still fun.

... Hang the fuck on, is this datasheet seriously telling me that the SPI clock can be up to like 100MHz?! (the very last page, T(wc) = 10ns). That certainly changes things…

Est-ce que je viens d'envoyer un mail au club des petits connards mascu qui roulent n'importe comment dans le tunnel mode doux et me font des remarques transphobe ?

Oui et ils ont intérêt à me faire une réponse correcte sinon, je vais débarquer au forum des associations pour leur faire une réputation 😡

Edit : si vous cherchez un club cycliste pour vous ou vos enfants, évitez le Lyon Sprint Evolution et préférez lui le CTLyon.

I wonder if all R candidates are going to be asked to denounce the guy who attacked Amy Acton.

@alexchapman nice

@jpm I printed the keycaps for my kerbal space program controller. It took a bit of trial-and-error to get the tolerances right, some of which will be specific to my machine's specific quirks and print settings.

You may find that a 25x25mm key is too big for the switch's mechanics to handle. If you press it near the edges there may be too much force that turns into torque, which may cause the switch to jam instead of depress.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is expected to unveil a boost in EU investments in Greenland and closer political ties with the Danish territory, which U.S. President Donald Trump has pushed to annex. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/09/07/world/politics/eu-greenland-trump-annexation/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #greenland #us #denmark #donaldtrump #eu #nato

Good day folks,

Recently, one of my Black trans friends shared with me that immigration is at the final step of approving their application for permanent residency. They have not been given a timeline, but things seem promising given that they were asked to do biometrics today.

In total, the cost of permanent residency is 2,000 USD. They are asking for 2,100 USD to cover permanent residency, any transportation they might have to do (such as going to the capital to pick up the permanent residency card) along with covering any loss from paypal or ATM fees.

As immigration has given them no timeline, there is technically no timeline for this request. However, let's aim to have this filled before February of next year as HR will force him to go through getting a work permit and make him front the cost of the work permit (1500 USD. Yes, the yearly work permit costs almost as much as the permanent residency).

This should be the last mutual aid for them as their full time position is enough to cover their daily living expenses.

#flosstodon at the end, and beginning of its journey

US capitalists executed the leaders of the May 1 1886 strike for an 8 hr work day. In 1889 socialists declared May 1 Int'l Workers Day to honor them, creating a beloved holiday worldwide, but not in the US, where Labor Day was moved to September to erase workers' struggle from the public mind.

@madeindex Would the replacement really be any better?

@jpm yeah, sure, but I just don't get this one. Here's 👇 another one, which seems to make sense. 5 Votes in, 20% for one option (that'll be one vote) and 80% for another (4 votes) and none for the other two options (zero votes).
But how do you distribute 11 votes and get 40% and 70%? Sure, 4 votes and 7 votes, but that would be, if correct, 36.4% and 63.6%? Why'd they divide by 10 and not by 11 ? Weird.

@AnarchoNinaWrites golf should only be played in the original manner, a field full of potholes and sheep shit. The way its creators intended. None of this DEI smoothly manicured lawn shit for people who suck at golf.

@shlee 👀 the teeth are creepy 👀
