Some more #fog ? It was a bit chill but veeerry silent.
I liked the mood there and how the bushes & trees vanished in the fog. Especially the dead tree at the end that looks like reaching out into the water.
Enjoy the silence 🙂

This black-and-white image captures a tranquil and mysterious scene of a foggy riverside. The river, calm and smooth, reflects the muted light of the overcast sky. Dense fog envelops the area, obscuring the background and creating an ethereal atmosphere. On the left side of the image, a row of leafless trees stands along the riverbank, their bare branches reaching into the fog. The trees are partially shrouded in mist, adding to the sense of depth and mystery. The fog softens the outlines of t…

“‘We had to destroy the village to save it’ is not a new American rationalization, and the imperial boomerang can and will, if we don’t stop it, bring it to bear on the American populace.”

Local Law Enforcement's Challenge: Uphold the Law, Even Against the Feds
in the absence of action, civilians will fill the void I do want to write something not so serious, maybe even funny, here soon. But today, I think the police have to do a very hard and necessary thing: defend Americans against their federal government. If any other group arrived

Omg, patently wrong. To begin with, I am the one using the GTX 1650, and my video shows that it's working great even with DLSS, as opposed to the viewer with the AMD problem. And that parrotting nincompoop of an AI wants me to - what? - save time, give technical advice, make some small talk? What a big, smoking hot, pointless pile of b this technology turns out to be.
And I guess Google lets the same fucking stupid LM to determine how to recommend my video to other viewers? Great!<…

I guess the plans for Sunday swimming are off the table at the current temperatures. #Uckermark #coldswim

Dry leaves covered in frost in a forest.
Two persons standing on top of the water of a small lake. Apparently the water at the shore is frozen to hold the weight. Both people are wearing thick winter clothes. The right person is also wearing a scarf. The sky is clear and the beginning sunset turning the edge pink from blue already. The photo is taken from a very low angle.

I finally got around to adding the Narrator speech recap feature to my 2020 post “Speech Viewer Logs of Lies”:

Speech Viewer Logs of Lies
The headline is intentional hyperbole, chosen mostly for the sloppy alliteration. When sighted users test with a screen reader it is common to rely on the visual output — checking to see where focus goes, confirming that controls behave, watching the spoken output in a text log. The problem is…

Content warning: re: bitcoin conference report

The conference is over now. I likely wouldn't have come for just a bitcoin thing, but I am very interested in redecentralizing the web, so it's attachment to the nostr day pulled me in.
Everyone I met was friendly and interesting and seems much more interested in making a better money system than in making money for themselves.
Our government and bank money systems are dysfunctional in all kinds of ways which are often less visible than they should be too people using them, especially to those in Europe and America who benefit from the way those systems exploit the global south.
I'm not convinced that fixing that would end wars and fix broken government as some seem to think, but I am sure our money is the source of many problems.
There are many bright, well meaning, and intelligent people building to improve bitcoin in fascinating ways with the hope of having a parallel system to transition to. With lots of work still to be done.
Can it work?
I'm sure I don't know, and I'm sure even if it's a better system it'll come with it's own unfairness and cruelty. Money will continue to be a source of suck and worry.
I'm told that the bigger conferences are often full of shitcoin scammers and suit wearing banksters who are in fact all in it too get rich and rip people off, but I found none of that here.
Here there is a real community of people trying to make the world a better place and improve the lives of their neighbours and governance of their countries.
And in the end building community is the most radical and effective way to change the world regardless of the problems of it's money system.
I had a great time. Thanks to those organising it.

the “fastest, the biggest and by far 100 times more powerful than any battleship ever built.”
Trump described himself as
a “very aesthetic person” while noting that he,
along with the U.S. Navy,

one Florida Republican is salivating at the prospect of a full-scale military invasion,
arguing that a U.S. military invasion would be “very good news for the American economy.”
“Venezuela, for those Americans who do not understand why we need to go in, basically [it’s] for three reasons,”
said Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL), speaking with Fox’s David Asman.
Those three reasons, Salazar exp…
