Thread (ten posts) making a convincing case for Ukraine winning the war in the next 3-6 months due to an accelerating Russian collapse, caused by … well, that'd be a spoiler.

Go read.

This, happening within months of the AI bubble bursting and taking down the US stock market, is going to make 2025 the pivotal year of the decade. (Forget Trump, he's a side-show.)

German trains so slow, you gotta take chicken with you to survive the arduous journey.

I recently found a photo I took during the height of COVID that, in retrospect, wonderfully encapsulated our failure as a species.

A pickup line with clearly marked places for people to stand to keep social distancing. An unmasked man is standing incredibly close behind the person in front of him instead. He is wearing a COVID-19 Compliance Officer vest while clearly failing to comply with even the most basic of processes.

<erno> hm. I've lost a machine.. literally _lost_. it responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is.

This is all true by the way

Why is Master of Reality such a good album? Just amazing.

i3 has this feature, where if it crashes (due to a memory corruption or something), it shows a dialog, allowing you to (among other things) restart it in-place. Which lets you keep all your state, your applications keep running, your window and workspace configuration stays the same…

In any case, I really wish the sway people had taken more from how @zekjur did things. Incredibly frustrated right now, because something about my home setup seems to make sway crash unpredictably.

That kind of thing.

I might now be officially old™ by stating this, but holy hell, does cooking with an induction plate make more fun. No more waiting 15 minutes for noodles to be done.

A two-panel, black and white pixel art comic featuring two cartoon cats.
Panel 1: The cat on the left asks, "What's wrong?". The cat on the right, looking sad, replies, "I feel compressed..."
Panel 2: The cat on the left asks, "Wait... Don't you mean 'depressed'?". The cat on the right is now a heavily pixelated and distorted image, visually representing digital compression. The artist's handle "@Nyazsche" is in the top right corner.

Weeks 39…41 progress on 2 packaging for : updating the intellij-community-idea source package.

Very little progress again these last three weeks due to being preempted by other concerns and then health issues forcing me to take a break. Overall I only managed to spend 2 hours on intellij-community-idea on W39 and a few minutes this week updating the todo list.

Planning to work on building a recent kotlinx-coroutines with old tools this week.
