the linux screensaver that shows 3d models of all the different molecules is so good! it's like it sneaks a little bit of learning in there opportunistically.
me: paused the telly for a bit to reply to a message, go to resume playback...
my laptop: while ive got you, here's Buckinsterfullerine aka "bucky ball" which appears to be a compound made entirely of carbon atoms. enjoy!
me: zoned out thinking about an email reply
laptop: hey check out the dna molecule? its pretty sweet!
i think im even starting to remember some of the forms and am starting to have questions id like to have answers to, about how all the little atoms bond and stuff, and like how you can get the atoms to jump into one formation vs another 🤔.
it feels like free learning via osmosis and i like it a lot 😎

Having had a little password difficulty on my wife's tablet this evening... this @tomgauld.bsky.social cartoon came to mind.... sometimes, trying to recall your password under pressure is just counterproductive!

The good news is this party is not very well organised in vetting its people and they do not tend to stick about or are watched like a hawk. If you are now in one of their councils hold them to an account, they cannot handle pressure.
I give it 6 months before most of them quit.

I have a box sitting in my basement with 190GB of ram on it, hosting a minecraft server and like two debian VMs.

Let's Encrypt just stopped the issuance of certificates after an (so far not publicly disclosed) incident:
https://letsencrypt.status.io/pages/incident/55957a99e800baa4470002da/69fe2d6698ca07050eb4b1b3
If anyone encounters issues today with failed certificate renewals: It's probably not your setup.
Update: Let's Encrypt has resumed issuance.

If you believe that #Reform is a solution to, well, anything, I have a splinter from the true cross I'd like to sell you.
I hope you won't think this presumptuous of me, but have you ever considered attending a course that teaches rudimentary reasoning skills, you gullible fucking lack-wit?
