Well, cat, sitting ON my sewing is not the smartest thing you've ever done... not the least smart either, to be perfectly fair, but somewhere in the top half of things I wish you wouldn't do. I have had to extract the pincushion from partly underneath him more than once.
I spent the morning giving away cuttings and peach pits at a local seed swap. Immaculately organized, hopefully the first of many in the future. Here, as in most small rural towns, one doesn't expect big turnouts, but the folks that do come are usually quite engaged and eager for more good things to happen. One word in this thank you note from one of the organizers made it all next level worthwhile.
the Glasgow Interface Explorer project's new LLM policy:
We do not accept contributions where code was generated partly or in whole using LLMs. These tools are designed to be extractive and place an unreasonable burden on OSS maintainers, both on the level of individual pull requests and for the ecosystem as a whole. If you didn’t bother writing it, we won’t bother reading.

This sentence is going to make you mad
You‘re absolutely right!
We’ve been saying this for years now, and we’re going to keep saying it until the message finally sinks in:
mandatory age verification creates massive, centralized honeypots of sensitive biometric data that will inevitably be breached.
Every single time.
And every single time it happens,
the politicians who mandated these systems and the companies that built them act shocked—shocked!
—that collecting enormous databases of government IDs, facial scans, and biometric data from millions of people turns out to be a security nightmare
[EDIT: now sorted thank you SO MUCH!]

Centralisation makes abuse cheap. Decentralisation makes abuse expensive and cost-prohibitive. That's why the influencer business model doesn't really work in the #Fediverse. Here you can't buy sentiment. But many try (and waste money while trying, good ;)

If you are a US citizen and plan to vote, now is the time to get a passport. A copy of your US birth certificate is a good idea too. Or, you might not be able to register and #vote.

Thinking about that time someone called me a "sweet summer child" and I very much feel like calling me a "bitter winter elder" would be so much more appropriate.
@Em0nM4stodonEm 
Now that you have identified "bitter winter elder", I think there may be a whole genus of us...
