A congressional candidate from Louisiana who was the subject of a police report accusing him of rape says he is hoping to again “earn” Donald Trump’s endorsement
as he considers precisely where to run amid redistricting.
The candidate, Blake Miguez, is weighing running in one of two districts,
neither of which he lives in
but in which he is allowed to run.
He has been mulling that choice after the supreme court’s landmark decision in Callais v Louisiana prompte…

The change log entry I just wrote for Kitten¹:
- __Faster tests__
The tests (unit, regression, and end-to-end) have all been refactored to run conccurrently.
Speed improvements:
- Unit tests: ~8× faster
- Regression tests: ~4× faster
- End-to-end tests: ~2× faster
To enable this, the unit and regression tests were ported from Tape to Node’s native node:test. We’re still using the TAP test reporter and [Tap Monkey](

"Why does Verse exist? Verse exists because Epic wants your game to need Epic, even beyond the point where it goes gold and presses to disc for a consumer to purchase. Verse exists so that they can run your game on their server and extract rent from you even when your game is in maintenance mode. Verse exists to make it easier to integrate your game into Fortnite, so that instead of selling your game through Steam or PSN or the Microsoft Store they can turn Fortnite even further from a game …

Our collective sense of entitlement is getting in the way of doing the work to get things improved.
"But they should _____"
Sure but they is we.
"But nobody should go hungry"
Okay and? HOW DO WE DO THAT? Let's build it! It's not just going to happen! Government isn't a magical provider! It's us! Sometimes complaining fixes things but mostly small things.
"They should run the busses all night."
Okay so let's work the system to get it right.
Things cost money. Systems take care to build and maintain. They don't just happen. Sometimes trade-offs have to be made.

An update on the status of the race for my House seat: When I last posted about it, the 2 Dems interested in running for it were Jason Quinno and Tom Brennan. However, they have decided to run for the floterial instead, so now Nate Giffard is running for my seat. I met him today, and he seems good. Since he is now the only Dem running for the seat, I'd like to officially endorse him for the position. He's running on a platform of housing, general affordability, and civil rights. Here's a link to his website:

I like Iraola’s subs. He clearly told Koumas to just run dammit, and Koumas absolutely did. Won the ball back on pure effort late.
Munoz looks like a winner. Quick, decisive, and direct. If he can build some chemistry, he can go places.
Gakpo was really good after a rough start, Less like last year’s cut in and shoot into a defender. More drifting about to present for the ball. More Salah-like lifted passes across the box.
Alisson? Not a great game. 🫣

@… the only reason to get a pixel is to run GrapheneOS, but the 11 seems at best a sidegrade, and a downgrade in many ways. I’m going to wait for next year’s GrapheneOS-enabled Motorola flagship to replace my Pixel 8 Pro XL.
More a note for myself but feel free to use this:
To add fan speeds to node exporter on Debian on a dell Optiplex:
- make file /etc/modprobe.d/dell-smm-hwmon.conf with "options dell-smm-hwmon ignore_dmi=1"
- run modprobe dell-smm-hwmon
- try sensors
- try sensors-detect and sensors again
- try reboot
- one of those may have worked?
Again this is a mix of about 5 different articles but it seems to add hardware fan speed to node exporter …

budapest_connectome: Budapest Reference Connectome 3.0
A parameterizable consensus brain graph, derived from connectomes of 477 people, each computed from MRI datasets of the Human Connectome Project. Nodes are brain regions, and edges are weighted by the number of "tracks" that run between two nodes, as well as fiber length, fractional anisotropy and the number of occurrences in each of the 477 individuals.
This network has 1015 nodes and 121755 edges.

The US House of Representatives on Tuesday approved a stopgap measure to head off a government shutdown until early December,
with its Republican leaders seeking to defuse a volatile issue in the run-up to the November midterm elections.
The continuing resolution authorizing government spending until 4 December passed by a vote of 220-205,
roughly along party lines.
It next heads to the Senate, where it will need to win bipartisan support to clear the chamber.

Imagine the battery bank I'd need to feed an old-school 250W chicken light for a whole day! Hint: max 50% discharge cycle on lead acid, 6kWh of power required/24h, plus reserve. Basically 8x 100Ah batteries @ €150 each.
