I know everyone’s already dragging the living shit out of this already but 🤷🏻‍♀️:
All ICE/BP should have:
Clearly marked vehicles
Clearly marked names on uniforms (large TEXT for both)
ID/badges
Dismissal and/or prosecution for failing to comply.
QR codes are just unneeded “tech” complication
The current regime talks a lot of shit about ID being required to vote, but is fine with armed agents of the govt having less ID than a teen trying (and failing) to…

I am introducing the Quick Recognition (QR) Act, which requires ICE and CBP officers to wear uniforms featuring QR codes. When scanned, the code would generate a digital ID displaying the officer's name, badge number, and law enforcement agency.
ICE should be unmasked both physically and digitally.

If Alito steps down (My feeling is that he deserves to be thrown out) then the Senate D's should refuse to confirm any Cheato nominated successor.
Better to let the SCOTUS seat stay empty rather than have yet another trump sycophant.

After a coworker told someone to just deactivate IPv6 ("it only makes problems, noone needs that, it should be scrubbed completely"), we got into a heated discussion over a distance of several desks and space dividers.
Coworkers without IT-background pulled up chairs, brought snacks 🍿 , played Godzilla sounds from their phones.
They probably didn't understand most of the technical terms we shouted at each other, but they liked to watch.

Looking for other people here who're interested in analog "alt process" photography (especially Kallitype & salt prints in general) and who are also making their own prints. There used to be a few more such people in my TL, but they all seem to have vanished or stopped posting in the past year, and generally it feels there's precious little interest in this topic on Mastodon... (I too have a feeling, either my own photography went drastically downhill over the past 3-4 …

With the emergence of more processors with 64 cores or more, I'm thinking more about whether it makes sense to implement a hypercube virtualised on a single chip with a single vector of memory, or as a literal hypercube of 64 (say) RP2350s. I understand the problems of transferring data across a hypercube, but I don't have a good feeling of how the bus contention on a multicore processor scales. What should I read?

If you reply to me and expect an answer, maybe don't call what I said a "bad faith argument".
What do you want me to say?
"Yes, I posted this to specifically upset you personally even though I didn't actually mean it!"
Or, you know, maybe if it makes you feel angry—figure out why.
Anger is an emotion that just tells you something might be wrong. You should take it as sign to think about why you have the feeling. It might be that there is something the matter with your beliefs or what you're doing.

Claude Sonnet 3.7 describes the image as: "The image shows a person with short dark hair wearing an elegant white draped outfit or gown. They are adorned with an elaborate, statement necklace that appears to be made of clear or crystalline material. The setting looks like a stylized studio or film set with a textured geometric white background and some sparkling elements or lights visible. 

The costume has a classical or futuristic quality to it, with flowing fabric that drapes from the should…

Still not feeling great, but figured today would be a great day to finally test out the entirety of the custom FF6 cart I built so long ago. Broke out the Sony PVM-2530, got everything hooked up, and now it's time to beat all of the things down.
The SNES is modded with Voultar's SNESRGB mod, and the video/audio goes out via a SCART connector into the SCART switch (`gscart`), then into the CMPTR adapter, _then_ into the Sony PVM.
I do have two SCART switches, and if you…

A poor photograph of Terra in bed after being rescued in Narshe on a Sony PVM-2530 CRT running Final Fantasy 6.
The custom shelled Super Nintendo running a custom cart of FF6 with the decensored Ted Woolsey translation in a clear acrylic shell.
The custom CMPTR adapter that allows you to hook up RGB via BNC cables to the Sony PVM-2530.  Pretty happy that the CMPTR connector didn't really take off...
