It’s incredible that straight white men will say “I want my country back” and then say “I’m not racist.” Bitch who you taking the country back from? Aliens?

I love family holiday meals. A legacy of my youth and a house full of cousins. The sounds, smells, and chaos of a busy kitchen. The frenzy of a full, joyful house.

35 for supper. The menu: turkey (x2); ham (x2); mashed potatoes; gravy; stuffing; glazed carrots; mashed turnips; three bean salad; Amish salad; macaroni salad; holopchi (cabbage rolls) sour and regular; pedohay (perogies) w/ dill cream sauce; orange salad; pumpkin pies x2; peanut butter pie; Nutella pie; & this mango cheesecake.

If they can go after after teachers, librarians, election clerks, nurses, and disaster relief workers, eventually they'll go after whatever it is you are, too.

This is outrageous.

I've been poking at LLMs for alternative ideas on how to remove the remjet layer from ECN-2 films to see how they do.

ChatGPT 4o says roughly 13 g washing soda plus a few drops of (Dawn) dish soap at 40C for no more than 3-5 minutes, with standard heavy agitation and rinse, might do the trick.

Based on a previous answer by GroqChat that did a deep dive on the waxy nature of remjet, I'm likely to agree with ChatGPT here.

I would love to know what ChatGPT o1 says, but not for $20 USD per month.

Heard @jdickerson mention Deadloch and started watching it. So funny, and surprisingly good police procedural. I was worried it was going to be more like Brooklyn 99 (which I also like) but this is it's own thing.

Ward Christensen, co-founder of first online BBS system and creator of XMODEM, dies at 78. Peace.

At some stage there needs to be an adult conversation about why there's a trillion dollar security industry which includes security testing.. but apparently it cannot spot basic flaws in security industry products.

Targa.

#praha #prague #urban #landscape #mobilephotography #photography an old shot that I shot two years ago. I totally forgot about this one.

Just for larks. During the big auroral storm of a couple of nights ago, I fired up one of my old analogue cameras. Unfortunately I only had 100 ISO film. Here's a roughly ten-minute exposure taken using a 6x12 Tomiyama panoramic camera which I developed myself last night., #analogue #film #aurora #NewZealand

In just a few hours (for today, Oct 12), I'll be giving my free talk at the Bear Tooth theater on Alaska representation in comics. So many funny pictures. So much bad representation. Guess how many times igloos show up!

After a few nudges and a few more test rolls I think I maybe back to normal. #BelieveInFilm #Fomapan400 #KMZFT2 #TeamHorizon

DZ: First world problems

Saturday morning so far:

• Went to bed at 11 PM last night, got up at 5 AM, was really hoping to sleep in a bit. No luck. 💤
• Read the Hodinkee article about the Casio World Time, trying not to buy one, even though they're like $25 USD. ⌚
• Snow is imminent. Tire swap place opens at 9 AM, first come, first served. Got there at 8:34, already booked for the day. 🥶
• The bakery is open, and they have the best coffee. Soothing my soul with various muffins and caffeine. ☕

Forty-four men have succeeded Washington so far. Some became titans; others finished their terms without distinction; a few ended their service to the nation in ignominy. But each of them knew that the day would come when it would be their duty and honor to return the presidency to the people.

All but one, that is.

Has anybody tried viewing iPhone spatial photos and videos on Nintendo 3DS?

Discussion of sharing of nonconsensual nude imagery

Researchers uploaded 50 nude photos to X.

Then, it reported 25 of them for being nonconsensual. And the other as "copyright infringements."

X removed the copyright-reported nude images.
The nonconsensual nude photos stayed.

Please share.

@knapjack @DorotheaLange You'll still see a scene much like that outside the Baughman's in Livermore to this day. Here's a photo I took circa 2012.

I'm listening to this new streaming service called RADIO. Maybe RAD.io? Not sure. No account necessary for the free trial, ad supported but no worse than the others so far. Heavy branding, though.

I found a decent playlist and sticking with it for the day to see how it turns out or until the free trial runs out.
