Internet comes in via geosynchronous satellite that is directly ahead and can’t pass through the three masts, so we’ve altered course slightly to check email for the first time in a few days.

Everyone wants a simple solution to the xz incident but the reality hurts. It's going to be expensive and hard work but if we all work together to yeet computers into the sun we might just be able to solve it

I read somewhere that Fitbits are just modern day Tamagotchis and the stupid animal you’re trying to keep healthy is just you. I think about that a lot.
@letoram @SwiftOnSecurity that's an easy fix:
open up terminal
lsusb -v
find the webcam in the list
note down the 14th and 378th characters in the id
vi /etc/init.d/dev/webcam...
[17 dense pages omitted for brevity]
recompile the kernel twice
shutdown -r
wait 16 seconds, then
shutdown -r
and hey presto, you have a working webcam.
it only functions in negative greyscale for now, and the vertical flip can be confusing initially but is fine once you're used to it.

Very pleased to see a caterpillar when out and about earlier.
They seemed slightly less pleased to see me.

bad idea: A mouse cursor that's not just a simple floating pointer, it's a cat/dog paw... but it stretches all the way to an edge of the screen like it's a really long leg

I found this is near Dunvegan Castle on the Isle of Skye. I'm not sure what they were in their original form, and I'm not sure what they are now, but I rather like both.

Trump has less than a week to arrange a $454 million bond. There are 331.9 million US citizens. If each American spends only $1.37, then we can all buy a cheap chocolate bar to enjoy while we watch the State of New York seize Trump's properties.

Rocket propellants are often fun. This one is designed to fuck things up on a magnitude that's up there with Project PLUTO, by using elemental fluorine reacting with liquid lithium _heated by cesium-137_.
For when you absolutely positively have to fuck literally everything that so much as looks at your exhaust funny.
