What is Hackers' Pub?

Our French school teacher was called Mr Segar. Every time he walked into the room the whole class would cry out "SEGAAA…!" akin to the start of Sega Megadrive games. He always asked why we did it but to my knowledge no one ever told him.

Mood.

So we just got through the bitcoin/crypto fad (I mean it's still there but not as hype as LLM AI hype) and now we're still swimming in “AI" nonsense and next it's going to be "quantum computing" and honestly I can't wait for climate collapse to destroy all technology. I don't want to contemplate what the post-quantum grift is going to be.

포괄적 차별 금지법엔 전과도 포함될텐데. 이런 식이면 과연 법이 만들어지고 실행될 수 있을지 모르겠음. 저 사람이 소년원 다녀왔으니 피해자에게 노출될 수 있는 돈 잘 벌고 유명한 직업은 해서는 안 된다, 가 '합리적'인지 결정하는 사람들이 판검사인데...

X（旧Twitter）に217億円の制裁金、「青バッジ」など理由に--EU（2025/12/06 CNET Japan）
https://japan.cnet.com/article/35241313/

元々Twitterの青バッジって「著名人や企業などの公式アカウント」に対して与えられていて、それを有料ユーザーに対する特典に転用したのが問題かなと。
なお、MastodonやMisskeyが「ドメイン認証」と称して持っている機能はリンク先のWebサイトの所有者であることを証明するもので、公式サイトを持たない、もしくは技術的理由で link タグを挿入できない人は何人であってもチェックマークが付くことがない。だからEU側からの「実質的な本人確認を行っていない。そのため、ユーザーはアカウントや投稿内容の信頼性を見極めにくくなっている」という指摘はこちらにも等しく当てはまるのでは

이번에 은퇴한 모 연예인이 민주당 지지자에 가까운 포지션이어서, 정치적으로 극우라고 할 수 있는 이들의 불링성 멘션이 많이 보이네요. 성범죄 연관지어서 '마땅히' 영원히 인생을 끝장내야 한다는 류의 의견들도 있고. 디스패치가 어떻게 소년범죄 데이터에 접근할 수 있었는지에 대해 비판하는 사람들을 가해자 편 든다고 불링하는...

One of my favourite Mastodon things is you have people with account names like CapitalismMustFall@SmashThe.System posting about gardening and baking biscuits and people with names like ANiceCupOfTea@Friendly.Cafe cutting the power lines to arms factories

@mcc I thought this before, the internet's key resilient design principle is diametrically opposed to capitalism's requirement for control of resource(s) and cultivation of dependency - eg in capitalism you want to own the only bridge over the river.

Atmospheric refraction, due to the different temperature/altitude profile in the atmosphere at different times of day...makes distant mountains appear taller or shorter.

The attached photo is a comparison of what I shot yesterday afternoon and this morning. The camera was set up within inches of the same location for both shots, and those mountains are between 50 and 120 miles away...so I'm saying that any parallax effect from camera location is essentially zero.

I have annotated with arrows where it's easy to make a comparison of how the near and far ridge lines overlap differently in the two photos.

This is a follow up to:

Imagine the care that was needed to conduct surveys before the GPS/GNSS era:

"The Great Theodolite built by Troughton & Simms in London stood nearly 1.5m high, had a horizontal circle one meter in diameter, and could read angles to a single second of arc. Moving it required 30 porters and sometimes elephants."

"The reduction of Nicolson’s observations was a colossal task. Each ray from each station had to be corrected for instrumental error, for temperature and pressure, and for the curvature of the Earth. Above all, they needed to correct for atmospheric refraction, which at those distances could amount to six or seven minutes of arc and change from hour to hour."

Capitalism is *all about*, at its core, building decentralized systems which on inspection turn out to be centrally controlled, or controlled via a "one dollar one vote" democracy of the five or six richest people in the system (in other words informal centralization, without the committee that makes the decisions having a name).

The decentralized internet systems that capitalism builds reflect this. There's lots of examples of it. Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bluesky.
