Hey, my instance updated Mastodon to > v4.5 - so I can finally quote! 🥳

Trying to read a post claiming GitHub’s decision to purge toasts is *bad* for accessibility, even though it's on perennially inaccessible Medium.
And it’s behind an authwall.
Fine, I’ll sign in.
Oh, it’s actually behind a paywall.
Oh well. It’s not meant for me. Or anyone.

It’s always a similar radicalization, it involves it being useful for them in some way and therefore (in their view) anyone who dares to mention any of the 700,000 serious problems with it is a “zealot”.
Followed by ad hominem attacks by doing things like questioning other people’s qualification and motivations; in pretty elaborate temper tantrums.
It does not occur to them they might be wrong, even when repeatedly shown proof that they are.
This is psychological projection, by the way—they attribute their heir own negative feelings to other people.

@… following up on our chat at #SDSL2025, I finally found some time to see how a #QGIS Processing Algorithm Provider plugin can be unit tested. Here's what I've …

NewtonGen: Physics-Consistent and Controllable Text-to-Video Generation via Neural Newtonian Dynamics
A primary bottleneck in large-scale text-to-video generation today is physical consistency and controllability. Despite recent advances, state-of-the-art models often produce unrealistic motions, such as objects falling upward, or abrupt changes in velocity and direction. Moreover, these models lack precise parameter control, struggling to generate physically consistent dynamics under different initial conditions. We argue that this fundamental limitation stems from current models learning moti…

Finally uninstalled #feedly in favour of #freshRss and #capyreader. My wife is interested as well to switch.
Calendar still bugs me a bit. I could check this this weekend maybe.

also where the fuck did the actual shelves for my bookcase go. things falling apart but it's the main place where I've put stickers so I can't just scrap it I gotta endlessly repair it
I shouldn't have made that payment on my credit card if the power company is gonna take $750 from me on the 28th cuz I don't have that much aaaaaaaa
I should go put the numbers on my door so I can end the Hold Mail thing and hopefully get settlement check soon. but also I shoul…
