Aw, this was my family’s present for passing my technician exam. 😓 #SadHam
A broken coffee mug that reads “HAM”. The A letter is stylized to look like an antenna with three lightning bolts coming out of the top. The text is dark red with a bad looking yellow shadow boxing.

China’s first corgi police dog loses bonus over 'workplace misconduct'

Despite his misdemeanours, Fu Zai was honoured for his exceptional service in 2024 as an explosives-detection dog and received a Lunar New Year gift package, including gourmet pet treats.

True Story

#DnD #Dndmemes #funny #TTRPG #TTRPGMemes #DungeonsandDragons

The image features a meme with text and a character from the animated series "Family Guy." The top text reads: "DM: Please roll 2d8 for damage. ADHD Me: Rolls a 7 and 6..." Below this text is an image of a character with glasses, Peter Griffin, from the show. He is shown with a thoughtful expression, and a thought bubble above his head contains mathematical equations and a thought process. The thought bubble reads: "if 7+7=14 & 6 is one less than 7 then 7+6 must be 13." The background is dark, with a window and some greenery visible. The meme humorously illustrates the common experience of someone with ADHD misinterpreting simple math due to their condition.

Main intellectual pursuit these days.
A double modular synth case, 6u x 104hp, mostly filled with Frap Tools modules with a uniform dark colour and colour scheme on buttons and labels, but with some utility modules from different manufacturers to the right. The right two-thirds of the lower half is particularly compelling for fans of functional programming, with two dual function generators, three different attenuverters/mixers/switches, and a dual window comparator.

Wow, whoever really wanted those cars dead.

"...an arsonist used Molotov cocktails to fire bomb five Teslas before firing rounds into the burning vehicles at a dealership in Las Vegas, Nevada, Tuesday morning."

"Tesla CEO Elon Musk later responded to footage of the blaze, sharing it to his X profile and captioned it: 'This level of violence is insane and deeply wrong.'"

Who's going to tell him that what he's been doing is insane and deeply wrong?

CDU-Politiker Thomas #Bareiß spricht sich für den erneuten Betrieb der Gas-Pipeline Nord Stream 2 aus, während er gleichzeitig den Koalitionsvertrag aushandelt. Bareiß ist schon zuvor durch große Nähe zur #Gaslobby aufgefallen. Was man zu der Personalie Bareiß noch wissen sollte 👇

Thomas Bareiß war bis 2018 Mitglied im Beirat des Verbands Gas- und Wasserstoffwirtschaft, der damals noch Zukunft Erdgas hieß. Das ist ein PR- und Lobbyverband, der über die Öffentlichkeit und Politik für die Verwendung von fossilem Gas wirbt.

Mitglied bei „Die Gas- und Wasserstoffwirtschaft“ (früher Zukunft Gas) ist auch Wingas, eine Tochter der früheren Gazprom Germania (heute SEFE), ebenso das Unternehmen Wintershall, das bis Ende 2023 russische Gasfelder besaß. /1

Mehr dazu: lobbycontrol.de/lobbyismus-und…

Netzwerk-Grafik: Gaslobby-Netzwerke im Umfeld der CDU. Unten aufgeführt ist Thomas Bareiß als Teil der Aserbaischan-Connection mit Verbindungen zu SOCAR und dem Deutsch-Aserbaidschanischen Forum. Außerdem Verbindung zu Zukunft Gas und zu Peter Altmaier. Quelle: Lobbycontrol-Studie Pipelines in die Politik: https://www.lobbycontrol.de/pipelines-in-die-politik-die-macht-der-gaslobby-in-deutschland/

It's hard to know how exactly to fight back against Trump and Musk as they lay waste to our government institutions.

Moore's Law led us to a flawed vision of the future. In my latest for New Scientist, I talk about how a narrow, evidence-based prediction became the basis for a fairy tale about the whole future of our civilizations. (You'll need to create a free account to read the whole thing.) newscientist.com/article/24706…
Most futurism contains two ingredients: a plausible, evidence-based observation and a mythical narrative. Moore’s law has both. Moore’s original observation was factual: in 1965, microchip efficiency was absolutely accelerating at an exponential rate. But his accurate prediction morphed into a kind of industrial fairy tale. The rapid growth of the computer industry – and, by extension, the internet – became an aspirational story about civilisation itself. Thanks to computers, humans would become more productive, our cultures would transform and amazing new inventions would arrive faster than ever. Gordon Moore’s accurate prediction about microchip efficiency morphed into an industrial fairy tale.

How Moore's law led us to a flawed vision of the future

Back in the 1960s, it seemed like better communications could solve all our problems. Don’t blame the technology for the failure of that dream, says Annalee Newitz

Fedilab is full of features and unfortunately it suffers from a lack of documentation describing them.

Currently, we don't know how to act with that issue. We don't have resources to write all this documentation.

Asking help is not so easy. We need persons knowing the app and that are familiar with dev (git + Hugo gohugo.io/)

We could create a fundraising for that issue but we will need advice for a such project.

Don't hesitate to share that message, thank you.
