A bit of Sunday fun. My smooth transitions from graph to world didn't work as well once the world had elevation, because the positions of things would no longer line up. I've fixed that by scaling* the world up vertically as part of the transition. *Actually messing with the camera matrix. #GameDev

"...»Sie müssen Schwäche durch Handeln ersetzen«: ..."
Sagt ein Kriegsverbrecher! Meint er damit, man solle alle Muslime killen? So wie Israel in Gaza vorgeht? Dass das israelische Vorgehen in Gaza allein schon Auftrieb für Terror ausübt, wird anscheinend ausgeblendet!
Die Hamas ist eine Terrororganisation, die bekämpft werden muss! Aber mit rechtsstaatlichen Mitteln! Nicht mit Killerkommandos, nicht mit Völkermord, nicht mit Verbrechen gehen die Menschlichkeit! Wenn doch, ist man kein Deut besser als die Terroristen!
»Sie müssen Schwäche durch Handeln ersetzen«: Nach dem Anschlag in Sydney melden sich mehrere israelische Spitzenpolitiker zu Wort. Bei der Attacke kam offenbar auch ein Israeli ums Leben.
Y'know, I really don't give a shit what any celebrity thinks about any political or mass casualty event. Pretty sure most people are like me, so why the hell am I seeing so many "Ashton Kutcher reacts to Bondi shooting" or "George Clooney reacts to Trump's latest..." crap? Ugh.
Zum Thema Stadtbild: Kann es sein, dass Fentanyl immer mehr ein Thema wird in Berlin? Und dass die unfähigste Berlin-Regierung seit Diepgen es nichtmal auf den Zettel hat, dass da gerade Zeug in die Stadt drängt, gegen das Heroin Kamillentee ist?
Es sind Milliardäre, Politiker und Influencer, die das Christentum neu definieren wollen - für ihren globalen Kreuzzug von rechts. Unsere #Monitor-Doku über eine extreme evangelikale Rechte, die jetzt auch in Deutschland mobil macht. www.ardmediathek.de/film/Y3JpZDo...
Von Trump bis zur AfD – rechte Politiker instrumentalisieren das Christentum. MONITOR zeigt, wie einflussreich die radikale Bewegung in Deutschland ist.
These are a vague questions, but I don’t know enough about the subject (yet!) to phrase it better.
1. How long are we guessing it’ll take to find & make accessible biomarker testing for LC & related conditions that don’t already have them?
2. How does the process usually go from initial studies (I’ve heard about many “maybe! depending on further research”) to approving tests & creating access to them in diff countries, etc.? Do we think this will be the same this time, or different in ways because *gestures at state of planet*
I’m not asking from impatience.
I have an idea for a different kind of @illmarks piece that timing wise I relates to biomarker discovery & access…. Which means as I design for scale & feasibility I would love a time guesstimate to work with.
A large, dome-shaped glass structure is partially visible through a dense array of trees and foliage. The foreground features a well-maintained green lawn with various plants and grasses. Several trees of different sizes and shapes frame the view of the dome, creating a layered effect. The dome itself is constructed with numerous glass panels and a metal framework, and it appears to be a large greenhouse or conservatory. The sky is overcast, contributing to the muted tones of the image.

Since we are having a big day for antisemitism, here's a thought:
As a Jew (and a human being who cares about humanity, including Jews), I am simply not interested in any political theory, movement, or tendency that doesn't include a credible theory of antisemitism, and a serious praxis around it.
This includes Zionism, whose theories of antisemitism range from self-serving projection to magical, essentialist trash, and whose praxis ranges from bad-faith weaponization to compulsive violence; and it also includes antizionism, whose theory ranges from self-serving projection to outright denial, and whose praxis ranges from bad-faith projection to compulsive glorification of violence.
To the right, we are mascots or useful tools (or targets, for the honest ones), and on the left we are in a peculiar situation where we are required to be on the side of everyone else, no matter what, to be considered for a tentative membership in humanity, but no one (including us) may be on our side, because some of us have been known to do bad things.
It's an absolutely intolerable situation which, Divine guarantees aside, directly threatens our survival, since if we can't have reciprocal allies on the left we don't have anyone, and a small nation cannot survive in this world without allies.
This is why I've pretty much abandoned politics, aside from making angry and cynical statements such as this.
Maria Kolesnikowa: "Es gab Leute, die mir geholfen haben"
Mehr als fünf Jahre war Maria Kolesnikowa in Haft - immer wieder gab es monatelang kein Lebenszeichen von ihr. Nach ihrer Freilassung hat die belarusische Oppositionelle nun mit den tagesthemen über ihre Zeit im Gefängnis gesprochen.
Unlike what Trump claimed, the American soldiers were killed by one of the security forces of the regime that's now in power in Damascus. The same extreme religious fanatics that the US is supporting now, not by ISIS. It's what the Syrian interior ministry admitted.

I find it a really useful exercise for the shinobue to "arpeggio" over every note of song in order, up and down. (I don't know if that's what an arpeggio is). on account of how the difficult part of the shinobue is how you have to blow in a different way for each note and register.
of course when the song jumps from a high to a low note you have to focus on that jump too, but it's generally much easier in the shino to move between adjacent notes (except when they jump registers), and doing it the easy way builds muscle memory (I hope) of what it feels like to blow the low notes successfuly for when you have to jump to them.
While you can configure the alarm clock sound in #Phosh the default isn't great atm (it's the fallback from the freedesktop.org sound theme).

How can we go from a situation in 1996 of a buy-back firearm amnesty to 2025 with 4 million firearms in Australia and 2000 legally entering Australia EVERY WEEK.
There are now more guns in the community per capita than in the aftermath of the Port Arthur massacre, with at least 2,000 new firearms lawfully entering the community every week
Posted a PR, github.com/picolibc/picolibc/p…, to finally delete the original newlib stdio code from picolibc. It's well past time; that code is missing a bunch of functionality and fails a lot of tests.

Fediblock of tsundere.love CW: racism (includes slurs), antisemitism (hitler), transphobia (includes violent imagery), plus lolicon mention (no pictures)
Sensitive content
We've had tsundere.love blocked for many months due to transphobia, but they're a 4chan hub, so they also post a lot of nazi trash, including antisemitic things, lolicon, and severe racism. They also federate with known nazi instance, poa.st. We've included some evidence below, but content warning, it is severe.

As #Russia has unexpectedly returned to the original demands from 2021 #NATO ultimatum, namely rolling back the alliance to the 1997 borders[^1] many people seem to be genuinely surprised. “They said they wanted peace, so why escalate now?”
Yes, this is anything but unexpected. This is a very logical thing to do, under Russian diplomatic framework, which had not changed since 1950’s[^2] Western observers persistently apply the wrong framework, so they get the wrong result, so they are constantly surprised.
Western framework is transactional - we make step back, you make step back and we got a compromise.
Russian framework is precisely the opposite: “if they make step back, they are weak. If they are weak, you make step forward… because they made step back”. Is there anything more logical than that?
Trump is consistently demonstrating that he’s much more concerned about the future and stability of Russia than Putin himself, so of course Putin escalates demand. It would be illogical not to.
