#Wikipedia Down?

Joined the gym to bring some discipline to my life. And now I'm too tired to do anything else. I managed to gain 5 kgs so that's a win.

I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

Just checked the rating for Person of Interest on a whim. This one was one of the best series I've watched, and the ratings track.

Happy New Year!!!!

This has envigoured my efforts to go off Windows. I have been using Linux for personal stuff for long but work was an exception. Now I'm looking into automating away stuff that requires Excel, and using LibreOffice for the manual parts (mostly formatting).

Can't believe Qatar of all the venues was the one I had a realistic chance of going to see a match.

Going to travel an exhausting amount of distance today in public transport and I am already tired expecting people to do this like they always do.

I somehoww skipped the entire Windows Vista / 7 era. My computing history goes like Win 95 -> WinXP -> Ubuntu -> Win 8.1 -> Win10/11 -> Fedora.

Why is Autodesk dropping Confucian wisdom in my Instagram feed. 😂

Security researchers are publishing 1,000 email addresses they claim are linked to North Korean IT worker scams that infiltrated Western companies—along with photos of men allegedly involved in the schemes.

My cat is watchin Flow.

Good Evening!!!

There are somethings so frustrating about LibreOffice. I was feeling pretty good after transferring over most of my workflow to Linux until I came across a spreadsheet where I had to apply a thick border for a table. This is a basic function!! and a one so obvious 🥲.

Happy Saturday!!

Turned the solar plant at home on today. Its a 3kW system, which is plenty for the household usage currently. produced 13kWh in a slightly overcast sky. #solarpunk

Using Bloomberg News livestream as ASMR

Switched to Libreoffice Calc for an experiment and I feel so unproductive. The tool can do what I need to do, but the years of conditioning on Excel makes slower by a big factor. Will try to stick with the experiment and see if I can speed up.

The doohickey is really a legendary weapon.

#dentists Is it okay to ask for my tooth back after extraction?

Started watching X-Files for the first time and I forgot to follow the story.

Ok, this is the last one

I was learning OCaml as a challenge for fun (I don't know much of any language, and this seemed fun, and I got a book) Which function would you prefer: #OCaml

I took this today when I was walking my dog. The skies are getting cloudy, which means the nights are going to be warm af.

Perhaps the year has enough time to redeem itself.

In my state, the Police apparently solved a case using "AI". It seems they have access to a system to do face recognition on photos shared online (clearview(?)). indianexpress.com/article/long...

Happy New Year!!!!

Resolutions for the new year: - Sleep more - Do more - I can't speak German -> Ich kann Deutsch.

Just watched #WildRobot. It's a shame that I wasn't able to experience it on the big screen. Made me feel like a kid again, the time when I was a tad more optimistic than I am now. <3

way too many people appear to have missed the entire point of the "live such that people celebrate your life and mourn your death and not the other way around" concept

Welcome back Ea-Nasir www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

South Korean citizens helped lawmakers scale the National Assembly walls so they could bypass military barricades and vote against martial law.

According to Korean constitutional law, if martial law is declared in a state of non-war, the National Assembly can vote to make the president stand it down. The National Assembly is gathering now. We are just now getting footage of inside the National Assembly.

I'm at the National Assembly building. The army is here. And I just saw two soldiers in fatigues getting pushed around by belligerent ajusshis. and they looked legit scared.

If I had any skill in webdev, I'd sit down and make this.

Mine is protected from the rain.

My almost 3 year old laptop is dying. Tempted to buy a ThinkPad, but the current one is a Lenovo. And so was the last one, which lasted 8 years, so I'm not so sure.

I couldn't talk about this when we worked on Pokemon GO, but yes, that's not new. Niantic has a history of working with governments - with injection of investment from Google and Samsung - and making use of their consumers as "scouts". The worst part is they call it "community"

Lol, I lost the original handle I made this account with when I changed the handle to my own URL. Didn't realise the handles are not reserved.

Don't touch!

Ea-nāṣir is the recipient of the world’s oldest complaint letter. He’s reportedly the worst businessman of the 18th century, a mediocre conman whose actions should have him put out of business. Is this fair? Here’s a thread on the most up-to-date research on this captivating figure.

Second playthrough of #RDR2. Oh Arthur Morgan, if only you knew.

Found this plant in a garden nearby. Please help me identify this ♥️. #botany.

We got robot communism before GTA6. www.ibtimes.com/ai-robot-upr...

This is what my walk looks like sometimes.

I wonder if Bluesky using DNS for name verification could have a "Neopets effect" on young people engaging with the web and learning it. @jay.bsky.team would be an interesting thing to incentivize somehow. variety.com/2017/gaming/...

Changed to my custom domain. Is it working?

Here's to the blue skies.
