Lots of Dutch people talking about the Northern Light popping up here...
I've been outside almost the entire night (work) and could see fuck all of it.
I feel scammed. >:(
last night i dreampt that is was reading one of my posts, but it was all jibberish. i couldn't remember typing any of it, also i noticed, it contained the words "gwenridge recorder" i don't even know what a "gwenridge recorder" is. unfortunately i awoke before i had chance to search it up. i will do it later if i can be bothered. i made a note of it so i don't forget.
Starting back in on speedrunning _Castlevania: Symphony of the Night_. It's really weird as I'm going from a controller to this fight stick, but I'm slowly getting the movement tech back into muscle memory. It's not quite as important for the initial fight, but I'm also gonna need to work on wing smashes and shield dashing.

In honor of Yoko Tarō and his nice taste in the matter I’ll be looking at screenshots of game character butts all night. Thank you for your attention in this matter

I'm a lucky guy, and I'm happy to be with the Yankees. And I want to
thank everyone for making this night necessary.

Remember that drama laptop? Last night I installed TileOS on it. A very interesting project, with River, Sway, Niri, Qtile etc. available. I opted for Qtile, version 2 (that version is now in testing, 1.3 is production). A quick glance yesterday showed a lot straight up working ootb. And great ricing also. Worth a check ✔️

Well, I guess this headache is just bad enough that I can't sleep this night.
I love this track from Silent Hill 2.
I heard the new one from the Remake aaaaand is a good track but in my opinion isn't better than the original.
Maybe the nostalgia hits me so hard. I don't know 🤔

You can think what you want about Apple, its business model, and its crazy pricing policy and rip-offs—I'm definitely not a fan either—but one thing fascinates me: since November, I've had an iPad Mini 7 Cellular so I can read the news, watch the occasional YouTube video, or quickly and conveniently reply to an email while on the go or in bed at night.
Very compact, very practical, it fits perfectly in my small shoulder bag or in my smartphone holder next to my bed.
But w…

IME, a lot of good information on how to achieve things with the #OpenHAB Rules DSL requires good searching on the OpenHAB forums or mining through the Javadoc.
I thought I'd use Claude over the weekend/last night to help generify some stuff in my config, and it suggested a cool approach whereby I could put metadata against items and then use that metadata in my rules to customise b…
This was supposed to be a busy Saturday, but the network connection got really unstable, making all kinds of work virtually impossible. I guess I have to do all that on a sleepless night next week.

I added two new books to my collection of anarchist works this December. The first is by the Norwegian anarchist Hans Jæger, titled "Anarkiets Bibel", and the second is Cindy Milstein’s "Anarchism and Its Aspirations".

Love is a snowmobile racing across the tundra, which suddenly flips
over, pinning you underneath. At night the ice weasels come.
-- Matt Groening, "Love is Hell"
A passage that in some sense inspired my new album. :)
“All creatures orient to home. It is the point of origin from which every species sets its bearings. Without our bearings, there is no way to navigate unknown territory; without our bearings, we are lost. I am reminded of this each spring when the same pair of loons returns from their distant travels to the cove below our window. Their haunting cries of homecoming, renewal, connection, and safeguard lull us to sleep at night, know…
Seven Republicans joined every Democratic senator last night in voting no for Federal funding bill during a test vote. They need 60 votes to push the funding package through, and only got 45. This is significant.
That said, all of the seven denied that it had anything to do with ICE, with a couple of them making strong statements that they support the agency and mass deportations. So they are still trying to appease both sides. That's some really cowardly shit.
The seven wer…

Time to make another bass tab/sheet music, and this time it's for _Wood Carving Partita_ by Michiru Yamane from _Castlevania: Symphony of the Night_. This one is kind of a pain, but it feels really great when you nail a section after picking apart the left-hand from the piano and make it (1) playable on a four string, and (2) move the notes around so it works well with the music overall. Still have a lot of work and tweaking before it's even close to ready.

And 2026, ay yes, 2026, the year Linux finally wins, everyone’s switching for real this time, and if it doesn’t happen you can blame me personally while I reinstall Arch for the fifth time pretending it’s society’s fault.

Holy shit I hate my flat building so much...
Picture this, I'm sleeping, it's 4AM, and suddenly I'm awoken by someone banging on the door, but it's not my front door, it's my flatmates door!
Turns out a drunk guy and his friend got into my flat in the middle of the night, anyway, they leave for a minute after that.
Then they come back in and one of the guys vomits on my flatmates door. Starts screaming for his friend to help him, at this point, I am sca…
Power loom built by T. Larmuth & Co., in Manchester, around 1860 - now at the Manchester Museum of Science and Industry.
> "By the early 19th century, new machines like this power loom could make cloth more quickly and cheaply than people. Groups of angry handloom weavers raided cotton mills at night. They burnt and broke power looms to protest against the new technology."
This aspect of the Industrial Revolution is now being breathlessly repeated by those who s…
Partying at the White House on Saturday night was unacceptable. I’m re-evaluating my relationship with my once-favorite corporation. Not that they’ll notice, but all subscriptions except minimal iCloud canceled. #apple
Decided to knock off for the night after I dead shorted the 305Ah 72V lithium house battery for the second time. I think I'm sundowning. Or possibly tired. Either way...!
I'm quite sure John Le Carre wouldn't really approve of the second season of the Night Manager (at least of the first episode).
Won't spoil anything, but let's say it's a bit unrealistic?
Second, after the Iris files, this seems to be a tv series, with a shitload of good British actors, that borders on the totally unbelievable.
What a cash grab and what a waste of talent.
Nuff said.

Okay, getting an early start on preparing for the JoCo cruise in the beginning of 2027 (assuming the world is still here). The overall setup will be the RetroTINK 4K (already owned), a nice 4K OLED portable monitor, and a sturdy MiSTer. I'm excited to see if the RetroTINK 4K works its magic on the portable monitor...even more excited to see if I can get back into running _Castlevania: Symphony of the Night_. We'll see.
Saturday night in Toledo Ohio,
Is like being nowhere at all,
All through the day how the hours rush by,
You sit in the park and you watch the grass die.
-- John Denver, "Saturday Night in Toledo Ohio"
Terrible headache keeps me awake, and that's a bit of a problem as I really would need the sleep this night before long day tomorrow. Next opportunity to sleep is well past midnight tomorrow. Being awake close to 48h might have been almost routine for me in the past, but at this age it's nearly impossible.
States opress people, and I don’t vibe with that, bleh. Anyway, whatever, moving on, have a nice night, comrade.
It's #sourdough pretzel (and pizza pretzel) night

It’s my second-to-last night of streaming before the big move to Bulgaria! 🇧🇬 Tonight, I’m jumping into Star Trek Online on my Linux rig to try out a Dominion character for the first time. 🚀✨

I find it harder and harder to lose myself in the computer like I used to. I used to have a glass of wine and compute until 4AM every night of the week. There's just nothing good on the computer anymore, or maybe it's that I've already experienced most of the stuff my capabilities will allow me to access. I might need a new tangent, or else a new thing.
Before you start your next impassioned political TED Talk in the group chat, maybe learn the difference between an anarcho-syndicalist and a Marxist-Leninist. Until then, go read a book, touch some grass, and good night.
Fourth Law of Applied Terror:
The night before the English History mid-term, your Biology
instructor will assign 200 pages on planaria.
Corollary:
Every instructor assumes that you have nothing else to do except
study for that instructor's course.
