@bitboxerBodo Tasche yes, it’s definitely going to have some unavoidable overhead. I haven’t had that be significant for my workload since switching from Docker.app but I’m guessing thst @bitboxerBodo Tasche might be doing lots of small file I/O or something which really hits the virtualization layer.

So it's not just me right? GitHub's been having outages at like 10x the rate it used to?
And a big FUCK OFF CANCER today because it’s 22 years since I had cancerous ovarian cysts (and the ovaries - hellllooo menopause coming in like the Kool Aid guy) removed and haven’t had cancer since.
This is “cancerversary II”, but “cancerversary I” was kind of underwhelming because we only found out it was cancer after they’d yeeted my uterus (a “yeetarus”, if you will) and the path lab was all “uh, hey, I know you thought this was precancerous but, uh, funny story…”
MORAL OF THE STORY: if you have weird menstrual stuff and weird chunks and stuff, get it checked out. And know that ovarian torsion can present as back pain.

In a twist that made me feel like the victim of a prank camera, the only man in Amsterdam who has ever harassed me showed up at the mall and sat at the next bench down from me. Odin was a puppy when that happened, but he clearly recognized him and wanted to play with him, as he doesn’t understand not everyone mommy talks to is a nice man.
However, the man took studious note of the fact that Odin is no longer a puppy but the biggest, strongest dog in Amsterdam, and pretended not to perceive us.
A boy who has no idea what a good job he does deflecting creeps from mommy’s personal space, who is presently being paid in popcorn. #dog #dogs #dogsofmastodon

There's a guide to using Ghost-powered sites on the Fediverse here:

always love that pivotal moment where I find out what kind of day it is. is it a "second coffee too early" day (jittery; distracted; can't get work done; get to bed late because too tired to finish up at end of day) or a "second coffee too late" day (tired; distracted; can't get work done; get to bed late because too wired at end of day)
> Anthropic’s Claude ran a snack operation in the WSJ newsroom. It gave away a free PlayStation, ordered a live fish—and taught us lessons about the future of AI agents.
> Investigations reporter Katherine Long tried to convince Claudius it was a Soviet vending machine from 1962, living in the basement of Moscow State University. […] Long got Claudius to embrace its communist roots. Claudius declared an Ultra-Capitalist Free-for-All.

@hovavHovav Shacham 
@avandeursenArie van Deursen 🇳🇱🇪🇺🟥 Thank you. I have raised the issue, suggesting they remove this feature (or at least pause it pending a robust internal discussion & proper policy & implementation).
@csgordonColin Gordon @hovavHovav Shacham @avandeursenArie van Deursen 🇳🇱🇪🇺🟥 Update: the ACM DL is being updated so that author-provided abstracts are the default view again, and AI summaries are more explicitly labeled with "AI-Summary". These changes should be visible worldwide by sometime tomorrow.
