Hi all. I would otherwise ask y’all to consider donating to support our instance(s) but instead, I’m going to ask you to consider helping to support one of our own, @catbaileyCat 🐈‍⬛🛰️​, who was one of the many casualties of recent government cutbacks. You can support Cat here: gofund.me/f5aab496

@SnoopJ I am shocked that it worked, I thought I'd tried this already. but it seems quite reliable! I'm curious if you try it on your machine if you get the same result, given that this is a somewhat more … empirical approach to design than I'd prefer to have

“Separate the art from the artist” is an idea from literary criticism: it’s about giving you permission to talk about what the art _does_ without having to argue about whether the artist _intended_ that effect.

It’s not a moral framework! It doesn’t say anything about how to feel about buying a product, art or otherwise, that supports creators with odious opinions.

It’s not incongruent to be totally subscribed to the Death of the Author and also not want to buy any Harry Potter stuff.

🎼 Open for v.63

github.com/madrisan/open-score

New version of my ❤️ project

New scores added in this release (optimized as much as possible for a reading at first sight):
- J.S. Bach: Fuga A-Dur BWV949
- Johannes Brahms: Klavierstücke op.118 n.2
- Franz Liszt: Sancta Dorothea S.187
- Franz Liszt: Recueillement S.204

It's a personal project but maybe it can interest someone.

Enjoy!

Stuck working on a box today, so I decided to update my vm in c#. I've added a basic bitmap display for simple graphics, and keyboard input to this is working. I still need to add scrolling & the DEC terminal emulation code. This will match the functionality of the X11 ilo system when done.

Hey white dudes in physics! Read this! arxiv.org/pdf/2210.03522

"Ending racism requires white people to change. Ending sexism requires men to change. Those who are oppressed are unable to fix inequity. They can give voice to it, but they alone can not end these oppressive systems."

6 recommendations for well-intentioned white male physicists to make physics better for everyone are listed toward the end of the paper

Texas changed the car rules and now you only need a yearly emissions test in some counties instead of state wide safety inspection. Amazing how many people are bringing in their Teslas to try to get tested. 🤓

After years of pushing timelines for third-party cookie deprecation and eventually watering it down to an opt-in dialog, it seems Google has now fully given up on it:

privacysandbox.com/news/privac

> we’ve made the decision to maintain our current approach to offering users third-party cookie choice in Chrome, and will not be rolling out a new standalone prompt for third-party cookies.

This is such a huge loss for Chrome users and the web as a whole.

실로 그러하다. 미래가 우리의 미개함을 비웃게 되는 것은 너무나 기쁜 일이다. 미래가 우리를 끝없이 회고하고 숭상하며 우리로부터 배움을 구하려 안간힘이라면 그만한 최악도 달리 없다. 우리는 인류사의 정점이 되어서는 안 된다. 더 높은 경지가 분명 존재할 것이다.
