@… i forget what happens if I message my old account that I moved here?
Sometimes when I put pills and water in my mouth, I forget how to swallow without chewing
I can swallow water just fine, and I can chew and swallow food just fine, but even though I take pills every day, often I stall with my mouth full of water, whether it's one pill or multiple, and no matter how much water
@… I’ll never forget that hot/cold bluetooth thermometer toggle 🏆🏆 (though I think that was a few years later iirc)
There’s a small difference between MacDonald and many other social media starlets.
She is 79.
“I was 70 when I started [working out],” MacDonald says on a video call from her home in Ontario,
white hair elegantly coiffed.
“I keep thinking I’m in my 30s.”
MacDonald’s workouts are intense,
whether you’re 30 or 70.
She does deadlifts, weighted planks and kettlebell swings,
and casually lifts dumbbells the size of fire extinguishers over her head.

Someone in the local Facebook group has posted an AI-generated image of Ozzy Osbourne, Hulk Hogan and Malcolm-Jamal Warner at the gates of heaven.
They've written "I will never forget horrible July 2025
Rest in peace 💙💙💙"
It has 171 Likes so far.
Boomers sure do love the AI slop.
And the idea that if there is a Heaven, Hogan would be going there.

@… I will! I forget about hashtags because my one-person instance can’t find anything, but I’ll browse them on mastodon.social.

"Here is an example: the Keymaker (played by Randall Duk Kim in the second movie) appears as a… well, a keymaker, sharpening keys as if he were in a Mister Minit shop. Looking at him at work, one can forget the complexity of the software keys represented by those entities; are they symmetric key pairs? Are they based on RSA or Ed25519? Is the keychain in his belt stored in the KDBX format?"

Zionists must think that once their genocide is over, we’re all going to forgive, forget, and move on.

Let me think about what really radicalized me. I’m autistic, so I forget things fast. I need to dig into my brain and find that quirky, weird thing or topic that made me feel radical years ago.
It might be something I hyperfocused on or a strange idea that stuck with me for a long time. I’ll try to find it and figure out what pushed me to where I am now.
I’ll post it when I find it. Sometimes it takes me a bit to dig through all the thoughts and memories in my brain, especially w…
Lately I've been approached by #UNICEF volunteer. I wanted to help. It turned out the only way to do that was… to sign a "direct debit" form. Of course, I can't imagine giving someone my PII in the middle of a street, and signing authorizations like that. She was particularly insistent too; I managed to get her to tell me that I can get the account number for regular wire from the website.
Well, I understand the logic there. They need repeated donations, not one-time. A lot of people would just forget about it after talking to her. However, if they fill the form there, they will have to actively put an effort to cancel it afterwards. And if I understood her correctly, she suggested you can cancel anytime by calling *them* — so effectively giving them an additional opportunity to convince you not to. Still, I am dismayed by such psychological games.
Today the European Commission will release a draft budget which is expected to make major changes to agribusiness subsidies (the CAP).
I think the only way to fix the #CAP is to kill it completely. Rename it and forget it. I'm not anti-regulation in general but I don't believe it's possible for bureaucrats in Bruxelles to meaningfully manage lands 2500 km away.

Tom Petty's 'Square One' was on The Bear in episode 8, I always forget how much I love that song. The things that guy could do with just a guitar and voice- damn. Magical. And then Strange Currencies later on in the episode. A lot of great and sometimes really unique musical choices on the show in general.

Quite extensive writeup on the whole W/X situation, the title suggesting too political of a discussion - I do recommend reading through it, neglecting stances, and just seeing where the projects stand.
To be clear, I do not endorse or judge anything here. It helps getting an overview. In the end, there are too many aspects, and deciding for either solution requires you to consider your personal preferences and priorities.
It is a week until the grand Kim Jong Un, oops I mean FFOTUS imperial parade.
(How could I conflate Kim Jong Un's parade with the FFOTUS one? - North Korea does a much better job of putting on mass tributes.)
Anyway, I do hope that DC Metro workers and Uber/Lyft drivers take a sick day off as many of the parade goers will be anti-vaxers with active, infectious Covid or Measles.
Don't forget that on the 14th you should arrive mid-day to your local Metro stop, park in…

Got tired of AC Odyssey and decided to revisit my GOG library. It's full of classic goodies, which I often forget. Medal of Honor Allied Assault is still one of the best single player shooters. The orchestral music and the heroic story make this game a first-class experience, and the id 3 engine is built for digital gunplay.

Today I lost 2 hours because TypeORM ESM NestJS is a fragile combo when it comes to migrations.
No migration:status.
No ESM-compatible CLI.
No schema awareness.
Class name must match filename (with timestamp!).
So I wrote my own migration-status.ts script to compare database state with the migration folder.
Lesson: if you need INSERT INTO "schema"."table", don’t forget the schema.
ORMs give you boilerplate — and tra…

The LLM sees math in its training data only as Problem -> Solution.
No deliberation. No "hmm, I don't know", no "let's try that, it seems crazy but still", etc.
But then... secret art passed from generation to generation? I don't remember when I have been invited to that club? Did math forget to introduce me?
What Bessins is after is the intuition that goes into math as opposed to rigor (as it is perceived).
Still seems like lots of over-glorification of math. Will keep reading. 2/2

ok. this was a weird moment. I just handed in my landline work phone. ☎️
Last winter we had a bad storm in #Nanaimo and it caused some power outages and spikes at VIU. At some point it damaged some very aged and critical parts of our internal telecom system.
Ever since, the plan to
move to fully digital comms (using Teams) has been quickly progressing.
The migration is done now. My phone still worked immediately after the storm, but it's been dead air for a few months now. Mine is the first in the building to go into "the box" which just appeared in the office. 😢 ✌️
Goodbye Faithful Northern Telecom phone.
I won't miss your answering service but my fingers will never forget the passcode. 😂

I think that growing up we had a fear of nuclear war because it would all be over in an instant. Modern day warfare goes on for years and assumes you’ll get distracted by some other thing so you’ll forget about it.
Sometimes I forget that #OpenStreetMap doesn’t search for venues near your location so sometimes I enter „café“ and it zooms all the way across the planet to the village of cafe in Argentina or something.

Half a pint of pistachio gelato, 2 ounces limoncello, 1 ounce #espresso.
The gelato melted very quickly, even in the frozen glass, before adding the chilled limoncello and hot espresso. Still good, but I’ll probably make it once more and forget to do it again.

It's about time I elaborated on an earlier thought.
"Non-practicing Catholics" have more liberal worldview than "conservative" Catholics — and often they jeer at them. These qualities make it easy to forget that you're draining with Catholics. But when the push comes to shove, you discover that you can't rely on them. They won't openly oppose the Church, they won't protect the people who are "immoral" according to Catholic morality, and if they are forced to choose a side, they'll side with the Catholics.
The Polish PO/KO party (often perceived as "liberal") is just like that. Their views are more liberal than the conservative right wing, they love portraying themselves as an opposition to it, but in the end they are a right-wing party. When it's convenient to them, they happily present liberal postulates — but they are as fast to withdraw them to please their right-wing electorate.
