ARE THEY PETTING THAT BLACK BEAR? OUT IN THE WILD?
WHAT THE ACTUALLY ACTUAL FUCK?
Hello, Hachyderm --
If you're logging in and finding your timeline empty or missing a post or two, worry not, it will be back Soon (tm)!
Tonight, during our maintenance, we had a little fun with one of our redis instances, specifically the one that handles timelines. Most unfortunately, it decided to... stop working. After the infra team executed an emergency cut-over, we're back online!
Everyone's timelines will take on the order of ten hours (!) to fully rebuild. It's a lot of toots!
In the meantime, happy Hachyderming!

Instead of reforming the police force, the government — along with the parliament — is revising the Criminal Code in a way that risks turning the police into a superpower institution within the criminal justice system.Under the drafted revision, the police investigators can supervise other investigators, such as Civil Servant Investigators and other Specific Investigators. It opens doors for interference and challenges other enforcement bodies.
The draft also grants the police authority to carry out various coercive measures, threatening the rights of every citizen.

Question for mastodon machinists:
This lathe is for sale locally and a couple of my friends are trying to figure out what this attachment with the pair of rollers on the back of the lathe does. None of us have ever seen anything like it.
Do you know what it is?
If you don't know, that's fine. You don't have to make wild-ass guesses.

JVC TD-W10 stereo cassette deck.
Hoping this is the last deck I buy for a while. My other “great deals” from Craigslist and eBay all came with gremlins. This one was professionally serviced, which matters with tape gear. Belts, idlers, pinch rollers, and tired caps are routine failure points, so a bench check and fresh parts save you from a lot of pain later. 
Why the TD-W10? It’s a mid-80s dual deck with proper tape chops: supports normal, chrome, and metal; frequency response up to ~16 kHz on metal; wow and flutter under 0.08 percent. Dolby B on this unit. In short, a competent vintage transport built for real recording and dubbing.  
And yeah, I’d buy new if new were good. It isn’t. Modern “brand-new” decks like TEAC’s AD-850 spec at 0.25 percent wow and flutter and only 50–12,000 Hz on chrome and normal. That’s entry level by 90s standards. The TEAC is handy for USB and CD, but for tape fidelity it’s a step down.   
So the plan is simple. Get one solid, serviced 80s deck and stop auditioning duds. Vintage mechanics plus low wow and decent Dolby beats the plasticky new stuff every time. If you’re taping mixes instead of just playing pre-recorded cassettes, a better-spec’d deck pays off fast.

Imagine a hitter with a career batting average of .250 stepping to the plate, someone asking me the odds of them getting a hit, to which I point to their career average and say "about 1/4"
Then, when they get a hit, being asked what I "missed"
The way we think about probability - and the way it's taught - is simply broken. It's wrong. But it can be fixed.

Das Video zeigt eine Szene auf einer Bühne, die sich in einer Außeneinrichtung befindet, wahrscheinlich während einer Konzertveranstaltung. Es beginnt mit zwei Männern: einer in einem hellen Hemd und dunklen Hosen, der eine Kopfhörer- und Mikrofonanlage trägt, und der andere in einem schwarzen Anzug. Der Mann in der hellen Hemd steht im Vordergrund und schaut nach links, während der Mann in der schwarzen Kleidung ein Gitarrengehäuse trägt und ebenfalls nach links blickt. Im Hintergrund sind Geräte und Ausrüstung zu sehen, die auf eine Bühnenaufbauphase hinweisen.
Der Mann in der hellen Hemd bewegt sich leicht und schaut nach links, während der Mann in der schwarzen Kleidung weiterhin das Gitarrengehäuse trägt. Der Hintergrund zeigt eine Bühne mit Ausrüstung und einigen Bäumen, was auf eine Außeneinrichtung hinweist.
Der Mann in der hellen Hemd geht auf die Bühne zu, wo ein Schlagzeug steht, und setzt sich auf den Stuhl. Er beginnt, auf dem Schlagzeug zu spielen, während er die Kopfhörer- und Mikrofonanlage trägt. Der Hintergrund bleibt dunkel, und die Bühne ist mit Schlagzeuginstrumenten ausgestattet.
