Years ago, my mother-in-law started reading The Exorcist. She said it was the most evil book she’d ever read, so she threw it into the sea. I bought another copy, soaked it, and left it by her bed.

I thought Gorillaz had lost their touch with some very mid albums in the last 10 years, but "The Mountain" is a very nice collection of sonds worth a listen

what, notepad on windows has had markdown rendering since when??

veldig kult at @froyasjursaether.bsky.social har lastet opp bildet til Wikimedia Commons som brukes i hennes egen wikipedia-artikkel: no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fr%C3%B...

why can't I seem to do even one installation using docker containers that doesn't fail?

one of the nicest things about working in a university is that no one gives a fuck about what clothes you are wearing

The news is Greener on the EU’s side.

setting up conda on a new windows computer and getting it to run in Powershell/terminal is still such a pain after all these years

I nest my loops because they seem very tired of repetitive work and they probably need a good place to take a nap

Other people: "Don’t ask me about my political opinions of the President, because I’d rather not answer." Me to my daughter, yelling down from our house's roof: "If I die, tell your grandkids I hated Donald Trump."

Can confirm that being a journalist is occasionally very sick indeed.

Det fins gode nyheter i verden. Som at EU blir stadig mindre avhengig av fossil energi. Det er veien til frihet, både fra klimaendringer og manipulatoriske tyranner.

wikipedia turns 25 today! the last unenshittified major website! backbone of online info! triumph of humanity! powered by urge of unpaid randos to correct each other! somehow mostly reliable! "good thing wikipedia works in practice, because it sure doesn't work in theory" - old wiki adage

I've contemplated making a best of for music for years now, but never really gotten around to it. I realize I'm late to the party, but I will make one here on Bluesky. The following albums are albums which were released in 2025 and which I found noteworthy. In no particular order:

saved so much on Black Friday today by not buying a single thing :)

Im at a talk about 6G security and for each slide the presenter says «have you seen this??? Have you heard this??? I hope you have» and my answer is no every single time

Klokkereint.

This video Hank Green made on Jimmy Wales and Wikipedia (youtu.be/9zi0ogvPfCA?...) highlights how lucky we are to have Wikipedia as an independent entity of knowledge. I wish more people (especially working in academia and public sector) spent more time writing Wikipedia articles.

Surprise, surprise news.err.ee/1609857231/l... Nå er konserten i Tallinn med Limp Bizkit avlyst

Limp Bizkit skal spille på Tons neste år. Frontmannen Fred Durst har en historie med uttalelser om russisk-vennlighet (se: news.err.ee/1609852209/l...) blant annet med å holde opp et skilt hvor det stod "CRIMEA=RUSSIA" i 2015

If you're thinking of leaving Spotify, now is as good time as any

I have an acquaintance from high school who recently finished their Ph.D. in a humanities-based discipline. On Facebook (🙄), they have in the last years posted a lot of anti-trans rhetoric from "an academic perspective". It has gotten much more intense in the last years.

I recently saw a reel from Golden Coffee on instagram promoting Waved, a product which infuses coffee with electromagnetic waves to energize the water molecules so that it binds flavor molecules more tightly (or w/e 🤨).

🎯Target: 7500$ 💰Current: 800$ Operation Teddybear 🧸 is upon us! Task: Deliver 5000 christmas gifts to childrens hospitals, and deliver 8 trucks to the front line. Lets reach this goal before friday! linktr.ee/Vaukraine

"Jeg ønsker at de i stor grad skal få lov til å studere det de selv vil", men også i samme artikkel: "Jeg mener det er riktig å gjøre en nytte-kostnadsanalyse av hvilke studieretninger som lønner seg for fellesskapet"

"Yeah that's me. You probably wonder how I ended up in this situation."

Also, I love love love making workshops with flipped classroom tasks. I don't feel like I'm talking myself to death while at the same time I get to observe people in the middle of a learning process

Did a talk today about using machine learning for drug discovery purposes and how to practice good data management. Slides are available on Zenodo under a CC license :) zenodo.org/records/1734...

I previously wrote about Tidal - I'm still very happy to use it over Spotify, but one issue that keeps coming up is how hard it is for the platform to stick to artist identifier. I've encountered multiple artists who have their music spread out over multiple profiles

( ._.) Is this Merkel's legacy?

Could use a few more participants in our study of scientific slide design. Got a sec to go through some example slides then rate them? 🙏 nimble.li/p9lxzlz9 As a bonus, you get to learn some random facts. #scienceUX

I had no idea CSS was developed by a Norwegian: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H%C3%A5...

My favorite addition to my keychain this year has been the Spyderco bug folding knife.

What you see...A recrystallization of the amino acid alanine (a molecular building block of our proteins) and citric acid, which helps drive a lot of cellular business and that also adds a nice tang in some recipes. This pretty patch on my microscope slide could fit on the face of a sesame seed.

Your regular reminder that genAI/chatbots not trained to do chemistry are bad at chemistry.

Nice view

Asi, millest ma ei ole varem kordagi mõelnud: Ukraina sõda on kestnud nii kaua, et sellest on juba päris tõsist teaduskirjandust.
