the people who are panicking are signaling.

During thunderstorms, electric discharges in the air cause trees to glow with an ultraviolet aura. You can't see it with your eyes, but researchers have finally managed to measure it & recreate it in the lab.

In the year 2026, where do we sell used household items? 😅 Are we still doing traditional yard sale, garage sale kind of thing?

Good morning! #FediMTL is getting started! Follow along in this thread for live posting about what's happening on stage.

I believe you may still be able to purchase a live streaming ticket, too so check that out.

If you'd rather not see this thread, you can mute me for a few hours. :)

Fediverse people: who do we like these days for buying DRM-free music in lossless format? Bandcamp is the obvious one but I know a bunch of (often artist-friendlier) alternatives got started up when BC had some ownership changes. However, I've lost track of them.

When I am made God Emperor, the people who design hotel bathrooms so that you cannot see your face up close in a mirror and also have somewhere to put your makeup will be piled up and set ablaze.

@eyeinthesky I am pretty sure that nice things are within reach.

Fediverse-ActivityPub already significantly diverges from W3C-ActivityPub. I think eventually they will become completely different protocols, that just requires a bit of coordination among devs.

Anyone have experience with django-extra-views, positive or negative?

https://github.com/AndrewIngram/django-extra-views

For inline editing of #Django model instances related to a parent model (using a foreign key), one could use the InlineFormSetView…

https://django-extra-views.readthedocs.io/en/latest/pages/formset-views.html#inlineformsetview

… but are there alternative approaches you’d recommend instead?

"you were so preoccupied with whether or not you could that you didn't stop to think if you should"

idk why everybody keeps saying that, obviously i thought about whether i should first and came to the conclusion that it would be fun and cool asf to do it

This morning a friend asked for help updating his BIOS. I helped him disable BitLocker because the fTPM would be cleared, then we run the update and also updated the chipset drivers. So far so good. Later my friend calls me up because apparently Windows detected a hardware change and isn't activated anymore. Trying to reactivate it doesn't work, and claims that he's using a Home license when the installation is a Pro one (it was). Sounds stupid enough? Hold on 1/2

If humanity, a type 0 civilization, can create a human-level artificial intelligence well within a hundred years of inventing the first computer (and we're not quite there yet but in programming we're pretty darn close), that must mean intelligent life in the universe must increase exponentially with time. Mathematically there must be trillions and trillions of intelligences out there, or we are beating unfathomable odds to be the very first

Incidentally, if you divert a trillion dollars to something and get "basically zero" economic activity around it, that's not an investment. It's sabotage. It's become the chief manifestation of the capital strike we've all been enduring since, roughly, the first half of 2022.
