Came across this striking art piece in Bourke St Mall, called Paid Attention by Huei Yin Wong. It’s designed to comment on the way the advertising industry profits from constantly taking our attention at no benefit to us. If you sit making unbroken eye contact with the messages about our attention choices on the screen, it pays out the equivalent of minimum wage for the time watched. Sitting there conspicuously staring at something silly in public for even less than 2 minutes was weirdly unsettling even though we’re constantly looking at silly stuff on screens

초음파 피임법 논문

아마 100%라기보다는 콘돔에 더한 보조방법으로 생각하는 게 나을지도
배경: 1970년대에 Mostafa S. Fahim과 동료들이 발표한 연구에 따르면, 초음파를 이용한 단기간 치료가 생식세포 고갈과 불임을 유발하는 것으로 나타났습니다.
결과 : 고환에서 정모세포와 정세포를 제거하기 위해서는 제곱센티미터당 2.2와트의 출력으로 3MHz 초음파를 15분간 전달해야 했으며, 이 치료는 부고환의 정자 보유량을 현저히 감소시키는 것으로 나타났습니다.

PC나 모바일 게임의 불법복제가 줄어든 이유는 사회적인 인식보다도 그냥 방구석에 앉아서 카카오페이로 대충 게임을 살 수 있게 되어서 귀찮게 토렌트 받고 크랙 깔 필요가 없어졌기 때문이라고 생각하거든요 그러면 웹툰 불법복제는 왜 근절되지 않는지는... 불법 웹툰을 보는 과정이 그리 번거롭지 않아서 + 애초에 정상적인 경로로 구매할 능력이 없는 사람들(나이 제한에 걸리는 청소년이라거나)이 많아서일지도

정부 전산망 마비 사태를 불러온 국가정보자원관리원 화재는 전산실의 리튬이온배터리를 옮기는 공사를 하면서 배터리랙 전원을 다 끄지 않은 채 전선 분리 작업을 하다가 불이 난 것으로 드러났습니다. 경찰은 이재용 국정자원 원장을 비롯해 공사업체 관계자 등 19명을 무더기 입건했습니다.

전원 켜놓고 전기공사하다 불난 국정자원…이재용 원장도 ...

Today I received the coolest, most thoughtful gift. Twice.

My day started out when a friend traveled from far far away, and dropped by to bring me a package on behalf of @anyiaAnyia, queer girl 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈, whom they had just visited.

It was a beautiful *handmade* puzzle box, with three interesting locks built into it, and a *four-page* letter of appreciation—the amount of effort they put into making me feel special is extraordinary 🥰

---

Then, a couple hours later, a package arrived from my girlfriend. Inside were two lever locks. One from the 1830s, and one from the 1920s that is stamped with "Mastodon" 🥰 The 4-lever lock is now the oldest I'm my collection, and the Mastodon lock is the first 8-lever lock in my collection.

---

And finally, a couple hours after the package arrived from my girlfriend, I got to meet a new friend from Mastodon in person for the first time—which was its own present 🥰

---

So today I got to add five unique new locks, several good memories, and a new friend to my collections.

It was a good frickin' day 💝

The top of a red leather-covered puzzlebox with an envelope taped to it that reads "Dear Alice (readme.txt)".The front of the handmade red puzzlebox, showing three locks built into it.

On the left is a circular metal plate with a small hole in the center and a red dot below the hole. On the right is another circular metal plate with a small brass cross-shaped opening in the center and a round swivel cover. The middle lock is 3D-printed and looks like an ovaloid with a cutout that looks like the side view of a partially opened laptop with two stubby legs under it...or maybe a vampire's nose with little square nostrils under it.A 65mm 4-lever padlock from the 1800s. Despite looking older than dirt, it works *perfectly*.An 8-lever padlock from the early 1900s. It's stamped with "Eagle Lock Co. Terryville Conn USA" along the shackle and the word "MASTODON" is stamped into the metal in big, curved letters across the body.

"Ich glaube, dem einzelnen Mitarbeiter ist gar nicht bewusst, dass er einen wirtschaftlichen Schaden anrichtet, wenn er sich krankschreiben lässt", so Windhage. Aber: "Wichtig ist, wenn der Mitarbeiter das Gefühl hat, er ist krank, soll er natürlich zum Arzt gehen."

Du darfst schon krank sein, aber bitte fühl dich dabei auch noch extra scheiße weil du damit der Wirtschaft schadest.

이순재 선생님이 생전에 꽃보다 할배 시즌3에서 하셨던 말씀이

"나이 먹었다고 주저앉아서 어른 행세하고 대우나 받으려고 주저앉아 버리면 늙어버리는 거고, 난 아직도 한다 하면 되는 거예요. 인생을 긍정적으로 생각하고 앞으로 쭉 가면 되는 거야. 이제 우리 나이쯤 되면은 언제 어떻게 될 수 있다는 건 잊어버리고 닥치면 닥치는 대로, 당장 나는 내 할 일이 있으니까. 그거 하다 보면 이제 끝내야 될 때가 올 거 아니냐 이거야. 그럼 그때 끝내면 되는 거고."

My favourite experience regarding Wii homebrew so far has to be NetBSD. I wanted to use my Wii as a computer for a while now, and NetBSD being available as an operating system you can install and get going on an SD card and a Wii with the HBC is definitely the highlights of my Wii homebrew experience. I don't use my Wii much at the moment, as I don't even have a monitor I can use for my Wii yet, but I have used it for a while on a TV and it was nice.

Networking is a bit hard, at least on the Wii however. I tried to get WiFi included in as a Wii image of NetBSD to burn, this was during my time on FreeBSD, and I just couldn't compile it. I was doing something weird where I would alternate between GCC and clang but that would have been a waste of time once it got to booting.

Other than that, it was nice writing a fetch program entirely written in C using vi and man pages to get by. It was a nice break from writing things without an LSP to help, although I still love using modern features many editors provide, obviously excluding AI, so I will stick with that. I also found that Lua existed on it which definitely helped whenever I didn't want to write C.

First *BSD post in a while, as I forgot to talk about the time I used NetBSD. I'll probably talk about Linux more at some point but I wanted to talk about *BSD a little again. Try NetBSD if you get the chance!
