Too bad info: links in Org mode do not come with search options. Linking to GNU Guile’s procedure descriptions would have been useful now that I’m reading those info nodes.

I never got the appeal of ergonomic keyboards. Maybe my hands are just different 😅

I had an idea, and now I’m wondering… how well could this approach scale…?

I never really got the jargon for “divisor,” “numerator,” etc. into my head… Basic stuff, I know.
Subtraction: minuend - subtrahend = difference
Addition: addend + addend = sum
Division: dividend / divisor = quotient
Division: numerator / denominator = ratio
Multiplication: multiplier × mutliplicand = product
And now we both know! Never again will we get confused reading elementary math texts.

this AI music-video… it’s nonsense and looks so bad…
this song doesn’t deserve it. god is dead, who thought this was a good idea…
the original music video is superior in every way, objectively. there is literally no angle in which it loses. :gutkato_kapaŭskultiloj:

So Mozilla has apparently just reconsidered their stance on JPEG XL! That is, going from ‘nope lol’ to ‘rust ftw lol’. Which reads like a rather ungraceful turnaround, but it is a turnaround, so… kudos to Mozilla for correcting some of their wrongs!
(They say the requirement is for memory safety, which seems fair enough, but I do wonder why they needed three freaking years just to decide this was their main concern. Yay for efficiency, I guess.)

It had to be done, I had to kill them…
You’ve got to break some eggs to make an omelette, after all.
UHH, NO, YOU IDIOT?!
YOU GOT BULLET-SHELLS IN YOUR OMELETTE!
IT’S GOING TO TASTE TERRIBLE!

* Patents Nintendo suing Palworld over confirmed, but, damn, this suit is weird
> Looking up those patents, the first alludes to a system where a player aims and fires an “item” toward a character in a field, and in doing so triggers combat, and then dives into extraordinary intricacies about switching between modes within this. The second is very similar, but seems more directly focused on tweaking previous patents to including being able to capture Pokémon in the wild, rather than only during battle. The third, rather wildly, seems to be trying to claim a modification to the invention of riding creatures in an open world and being able to transition between them easily.
🤦
Watching System Crafters’ “Craft your system with GNU Guix” playlist, one video a day (or so). And while I’m not planning moving away from Debian any time soon, it’s interesting, even if it takes a bit more time Too bad I don’t have another PC to play with it.

Just remembered I can individually hide repeats from people I follow. What a wonderful feature, from time to time!
GNU M4 CONSIDERED DANGEROUS
Some people find ‘m4’ to be fairly addictive. They first use ‘m4’ for simple problems, then take bigger and bigger challenges, learning how to write complex sets of ‘m4’ macros along the way. Once really addicted, users pursue writing of sophisticated ‘m4’ applications even to solve simple problems, devoting more time debugging their ‘m4’ scripts than doing real work. Beware that ‘m4’ may be dangerous for the health of compulsive programmers.
Sexism bad!!
“Girlfailures” no matter how maladjusted, no matter how disheveled, no matter how shower-adverse, are romantacized and called cute!⁽¹⁾
But I’ve never even seen the word “boyfailure!" And certainly noone calls them cute! This ain’t right, this ain’t right at all!
Sexism bad!
Sexism baddd! :taneŝima_ploras_lageton:

Anyone who used both Dino and Psi(+), how the first one compares to the second? 🤔
P.S. I wonder if Kaidan is alive…
