Everyone can go ice skating. You can go ice skating, even if you’re really bad at it. And if you fall, strangers will rush to help. And they’ll laugh with you when you laugh. Because this is Minneapolis.
And one of these days, damnit, everyone can go skating and just worry about the ice and not ICE. One day. When we get those occupier assholes out of here.

Five years ago, they risked their lives to support American troops in Afghanistan.
Now refugees across the United States are facing the threat of certain death thanks to ICE.
Some 100,000 Afghans resettled in America, repayment for assisting the U.S. government during a fruitless 20-year war, after Kabul fell to the Taliban in August 2021.
Thousands of them have since found a new home in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
But in the wake of the shooting of two National Guard…

Migrating geese
(Embedded dad joke in alt text)

Photo. Sky nearing sunset, blue and gray at the top, shading to a yellowish cast toward the bottom. Treetops spread along the bottom edge, with distant, hazy foothills behind. Skeins of geese fly in typical V formation above the horizon. I was with a group looking at bald eagles that come down from Canada for the winter, and hang out around the Fossil Creek Reservoir and bird sanctuary. January 2026.
When geese fly in their V formation, why is one leg always longer than the other?


Because the…

Hey @…, my Sirius 16 Gen 2 wakes up from sleep when a key is pressed. This means that it sometimes wakes up in my bag when the bag is full and the device is squeezed a little. It's very annoying and potentially dangerous due to overheating. I haven't found a BIOS setting to control that. Would it be possible to get that patched in? 🙏

I think the root of the “AI” evil is when AI researchers in the 1960s recognized that they outrageously underestimated the complexity of the human mind.
They became humiliated by their promises that AGI was just a few years away—and then went full goblin mode that’s lasting to this day.
Some of the OG researchers took it quite badly that they stalled and weren’t in the limelight anymore.
‣ Marvin Minsky (co-founder of MIT AI lab and arguably the most important early AI bro) went on to visit Epstein’s island multiple times.
‣ Karl Steinbuch, who came up with the German term for computer science ("Informatik")—who also was a literal Nazi (and likely war criminal) in World War II—later wrote articles in ultra-right magazines about things like “equal rights rob women of their children”.
‣ John McCarthy (inventor of Lisp, co-authored document that coined the term “Artificial Intelligence”) was a staunch Republican who years later claimed (in a serious article) that “thermostats have beliefs”.
[one moment, I am receiving more information]
‣ There’s a second Epstein Island AI pioneer? Who also was Chief Learning Officer at… Trump University? That would be Roger Schank (founded one of the first AI companies in the 1980s AI boom, it even had an IPO. Of course the 1980s AI bubble burst).
Obviously all of the above received all the awards in computer science and are very revered people.

I think of loosestrife being a little more strident than this but I think this is still some kind of 𝐿𝑦𝑡ℎ𝑟𝑢𝑚 in the upper waters of Fall Creek

A tall but twisty stalk has somewhat spare purple flowers sprouting from it like a bottlebrush near the 1/3 line from the right.  Two diagonal lines to the left of it look like grass and behind it and blurred out is a field of stones,  a tuft of herbacious vegetation,  a thin creek,  more stones, the bank of the stream,  and  trees ranging from olive green to just a bit orange

Ok so the first boss fight of the STM32MP2 bringup (getting the A35s running at full speed with caches) is over.
The second isn't going so hot. I've configured all of the documented SYSCFG and COMBOPHY registers (I think). It's not linking up, is in DState 4 whatever that means, and I'm not seeing any change on the tx/rx lines when i do this.
Which means one of two things. Either the register settings I've done are wrong (possible, I'll double check)...

Christmas tree acquired. Unfortunately, we can't move it into place because there is Lego building going on. When we reach a stopping point, we'll fold the table and put it in the corner.

a picture of a Christmas tree still in the bailing sitting in a tree stand in my garage.  to the right is my car, behind it is my workbench, and to the left is another workbench with a miter saw and scraps of wood.
a folding wooden table full of Lego from two sets.  the Lego pieces are neatly stacked and grouped by color.  each side as it's own piles. in the background is a rocking chair sitting in the corner.

Trump has begun to address affordability a bit more
—rhetorically, that is.
He’s never fully acknowledged that the affordability problem has continued into his administration,
nor how his own policies
—from tariffs raising prices on myriad goods to the chaotic interruptions in crucial benefits like food stamps
—have contributed to Americans’ economic sufferings.
But he has been making more claims about what he’s supposedly doing to bring down the cost of livi…
