true HOLY FUCKING SHIT moment this morning: over the holidays, my sticker guys were having a special on red octagons, so I designed and ordered 250 "Slop Sign" stickers — but while I was in China, someone stole them out of my mailbox. Bummer, I figured; they probably trashed them as worthless. anyway while walking to the subway I FOUND ONE OF MY STICKERS STUCK TO A MAILBOX! Whoever swiped my stickers is sticking them up around the neighborhood! This is the best thing that could have happened!

Sticker, red octagon in the shape of a US stop sign, stick to a mailbox. Sticker reads “SLOP” in Highway Gothic. Close up of the red octagonal sticker: “SLOP” in Highway Gothic.

I'm looking forward to the "Growing the Open Social Web" workshop on Monday.

I'm extremely dubious about a lot of the submissions. There are a lot of untested hypotheses in this list:

fediforum.org/2026-03-growing-

I hope that people's expectations are geared towards experimentation, data collection, and iteration, rather than confirming some of these assumptions.

Max never sits on me

Molly does, all the time. But Max never sits on me

Except today he did

I put a chair on the balcony, because it was unseasonably warm in London. I sat down, and he jumped straight onto my lap

I have never been more excited while having to stay absolutely still

Now it's evening & Molly is sitting on me. I am officially a cat chair

I finally found my calling

A black cat in the foreground, looking relaxed with his eyes almost closed - sitting on me, in the background, heavily blurred because it's not about me

i've been doing a deep dive into SPI NOR flash command set and it is horrifying. i don't know how anything works. none of these devices agree with each other on anything, even devices from the same family of the same vendor with the "same" part number (but suffix J instead of suffix V or whatever)

RE: mastodon.social/@blogdiva/1161

The unadmitted reason this is happening (and the AI bubble besides): Moore's Law *has ended*. The only way for hardware sales to go in future is *down* because your next PC or Mac will work just fine until it breaks or dies of old age. So by ramping prices artificially via this RAM/SSD futures bullshit, they're keeping profits high for as long as possible.

日露戦争(1904年〜1905年)において、日本が費やした戦費は約18億2,600万円(当時の国家予算の約6年分)にのぼり、その大部分を国内外からの負債(借金)で賄いました。

負債の主な内訳と特徴
外債(外国からの借金): 戦費の約4割にあたる約8億円をイギリスやアメリカなどからの外債で調達しました。
高橋是清の尽力: 当時の日本銀行副総裁・高橋是清がロンドンやニューヨークで交渉し、ユダヤ系銀行家ジェイコブ・シフらの協力を得て募集に成功しました。
高い利息: 日本の勝利が危ぶまれていた開戦当初は信用が低く、年利6%という高い利子に加え、関税収入を担保にする厳しい条件でした。
内債(国内での借金): 残りの多くは国内向けの「軍事公債」の発行などで賄われました。国民に対して広く応募が呼びかけられ、零細な資金まで総動員されました。

完済までの道のり
完済時期: これらの膨大な負債の返済は、戦争終了後も長期間にわたって日本財政の重荷となりました。最終的に全ての返済が完了したのは、開戦から約80年後の1986年(昭和61年)のことです。
賠償金の不在: ポーツマス条約による講和の結果、ロシアから賠償金を得られなかったため、負債の全額を自国の税収などで返済する必要がありました。

In den letzten Tagen habe ich Euch (recht schamlos) als Resonanzkörper benutzt, um meinen Blick zum Thema KI und Verantwortung zu schärfen. Dass ihr das habt mit Euch machen lassen, dafür danke ich euch herzlich.

Heute habe ich der AfD im Plenum dann ein paar Takte zu , , Wutmedien gesagt, aber auch zum , zu @Mastodon und @loops und zum (mal sehen, wie oft ich damit im who said it first lande).😅

Mglw. findet ihre euch ja hier wieder. 😉🙏 bundestag.de/mediathek/video?v

I'm so tired of the whole " has democratised " narrative. Cheap or even free creative tools and learning resources have existed for decades. Not wanting to become good at something is not the same as not having the resources to do it.

Speaking of resources, something AI is excelling at is increasing the price of computers by hoarding RAM and disk space, thus making things harder for less privileged creative folks. How very democratic.
