Ahhhh.... So that's where I left my bong in a past life!

"In 2019, archaeologists unearthed a few precious artifacts from a fourth-century Scythian burial mound near Stavropol in Russia. There were 'golden armbands, golden cups, a heavy gold ring, and the greatest treasure of all, two spectacular golden vessels,' says narrator Garrett Ryan, who earned a PhD in Greek and Roman History from the University of Michigan. The interiors of those last 'were coated with a sticky black residue,' confirmed in the lab to be opium with traces of marijuana."

Went down a little rabbit hole on a random generator and made an online version of a randomized morning routine list: no executive function needed, random seeds from a list of things that (for me) will definitely give me a good morning: perchance.org/automorningrouti… .

The image features a man sitting on a blue couch, dressed in a white dress shirt and a dark tie. He is holding a card with an illustration of a dragon, which is likely from a trading card game. The card is prominently displayed in his right hand. The background includes a wall with a colorful abstract painting and a wooden door. The text at the top of the image reads "JE SACRIFIE BAYROU," and the text at the bottom reads "ET INVOCQUE LE DRAGON BLANC AUX YEUX BLEUS." The image also includes the logo of Konami in the top right corner.

So where is all the cool official #Silksong merch because 20 bucks is not enough money to pay for this

They've got 110000 concurrent players on Steam in less than one hour of release (and many more not yet able to finish the purchase). I'd say the "so cheap it's an impulse buy" is going to work out just fine for them.






A quotation from Bill Watterson

CALVIN: “Live for the moment” is my motto. You never know how long you’ve got! You could step into the road tomorrow and — WHAM — you get hit by a cement truck! Then you’ll be sorry you put off your pleasures! That’s why I say “Live for the Moment.” What’s your motto?
HOBBES: “Look down the road.”

Ukraine-Liveblog: ++ Menschen durch russischen Angriff in Donezk getötet ++

Bei einem russischen Angriff sind nach ukrainischen Angaben im Gebiet Donezk zwei Menschen getötet worden. Nach Ansicht von NATO-Generalsekretär Rutte muss sich der Westen auf eine andauernde Bedrohung durch Russland und China einstellen.

Remarkable amount of fire on the ground in Pacific NW and British Columbia right now (black dots/splotches on map)--especially for Sep, which is pretty late in season here. Not coincidentally, today was the hottest September day on record for most of B.C. and interior WA/ID.


Husband and I made an agreement just now:

Once I finish my server rack project, and it's all up and running and not sitting in so many pieces in my office, I'm going to be given the green light to get a small aquarium to raise japanese ricefish 😁

I've been fascinated by medaka for the past couple years, but couldn't justify trying to raise them when I knew we were going to be moving. Now that the move is over, it's time to start planning out my perfect little fishy paradise

Join me September 12 from 7-8pm online for the Science Under Siege! Climate Action Party hosted by @climateactapp. I will be exploring the five forces sabotaging scientific progress and how they block urgent action!

Register for the event here:

eventbrite.com/e/science-under…




The more every interaction with every organisation becomes mediated by a chatbot or agentic AI or some other form of automation, the more I think the future of progress depends on real people making progress via Signal chats or Mastodon DMs.

When every interaction is programmatic there is no room for joy, for spontaneity, for emotional resonance, for building of trust.

The organisations that will stand out are those that forge genuine, relational connections.

I trust my hairdresser and her sausage dog more than your LLM-bullshit-powered chatbot, major financial institution.



"Vogelgrippe" überall auf US-Farmen

die nächste Pandemie wird dann wohl ihren Ursprung im mittlerweile bei der Gesundheitsvorsoge auf Dritte Welt Niveau gesungenen Staat USA haben.

Und es wird für die Menschen dort furchtbar werden, da der für die entsprechenden Maßnahmen zuständige Politiker ein völliger Versager ist.

Da hilft dann nur ein Mittel, die USA vom Weltweiten Personenverkehr abzukoppeln.

Hi data analyists from Mainz,

We present a survey that explores how researchers approach computational reproducibility, especially when working with HPC and cloud infrastructure. The goal is to better understand current practices, challenges, and needs around reproducible research workflows. One of our community members co-organisis this survey ( @rupdecat ).

This is the survey link:
👉 ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/c…

The survey takes approximately 10 minutes. It is anonymous and entirely voluntary. The results will be published in a research paper and also contribute to shaping best practices and training resources that support reproducible science.

The survey is open until September 30st, 2025.

Your time and input are greatly appreciated in advancing more reproducible and reliable computational research.

Boosts are welcome - if you have a local mailing list address to share with me, please send a private message.

A silver lining in this story, and it's admittedly a thin one, is that GOP lawmakers know a lot of the stuff they're doing is bad, but do it anyone because they're afflicted by a personality cult, and so when that personality is no longer around, they might, at least a little, revert to the mean.

Perché la Russia è fuori dal calcio e Israele no? La UEFA ammette: "solo pressioni politiche" - L'INDIPENDENTE

> Se le squadre russe sono escluse da tutte le competizioni calcistiche internazionali e quelle israeliane no, è solo per motivi politici. Ad ammettere quanto già evidente da quasi due anni è lo stesso presidente della UEFA, la confederazione calcistica europea, Aleksander Ceferin. Ceferin ha detto di

L'immagine è una serie di due fumetti in italiano. Nel primo fumetto, un ragazzo con capelli scuri e una maglietta verde spiega come lanciare una pallina al gatto, che la riporrebbe e riceverebbe una croccantina in ricompensa. Un gatto arancione è visibile in movimento, portando la pallina in bocca. Un altro ragazzo con capelli rossi e una maglietta a righe rosse osserva la scena. Nel secondo fumetto, il ragazzo con la maglietta verde chiede al ragazzo con la maglietta a righe rosse se vuole provare a lanciare la pallina al gatto. Quest'ultimo risponde che non vuole lanciarla troppo lontano. Il gatto arancione è ancora presente, con un'espressione sorpresa. Il logo "bassardidentro" è visibile in basso a destra.
