The quality of the print on MIRU seems quite good! I was worried when I saw the preview before the feature started.

Political vs. Governance

This 8-part series delineates where our elected politicians spend their time.

Hint: they spend a lot of time enhancing their status, influence, and power.

XQuartz EGL.

Dear Lazyweb,

Some time in the last ~6 months, eglCreatePlatformWindowSurface vanished from the libraries provided by MacPorts "mesa". Where do I find it? It is not in libGL and there is no libEGL.

macOS 14.7.7, mesa 25.3.1, xorg-libX11 1.8.12.

Possibly now in the angle port from MacPorts?
in reply to Craig

Thanks, there is indeed a libEGL in there that contains eglCreatePlatformWindowSurface. How I was supposed to discover this change, I have no idea.

But with that version eglGetPlatformDisplay always fails. Hooray.

in reply to jwz

Re changes, your best bet would probably be to ask on the macports-users mailing list. I got the clue, though, from reading the github commits to the mesa port. That was where angle was mentioned.

Re eglGetPlatformDisplay, you could ask on the -users mailing list or file a bug against the port. Remember that MacPorts is a volunteer organization. Some patience may be necessary.

in reply to Craig

I'm old enough to remember when changelogs existed.
in reply to jwz

hmm! This is the second macports-related "mesa" thing I've seen this week, as @gctwnl has been having trouble installing it at all.



We are going backwards due to increased RAM prices: 4 GB RAM default in mobile phones and 8 GB default in laptops. SSD prices are likely to go out of control as Samsung halts production. Don’t even ask about gaming console. Thank you sam altman and tech bros for ruining everything that is fun 😏

I dunno on this count. SATA SSDs have been on their way out for a while now, supplanted by NVMe in many many systems.

It's Not "Tech Bros" That Ruin Everything. It's Simple Greed, MoneyLust, And Quick Riches.

Tonight #monsterdon is watching "The She-Creature" (1956), starting in about five minutes. It's about 1h17m long, so get your timed mute ready, or join in! This one sounds like proper goofy fun.

Finally figured out a better way to attach the blade on my blackberry thwacker version 2.5. drilled a hole all the way through and made a rivet out of a piece of 3/16" mild steel round stock. Feels much more secure.

For most Americans health expenses are uncapped.

This is by design; Americans can be pushed into destitution at any moment by requiring money for healthcare.

Meanwhile incomes are capped; and it is definitely your fault for not being a better worker.

Are you starting to see a pattern?
