Today, I’m sharing an Eastern Pheobe wallpaper. This little one is the second I’ve done of this species, but it’s against a rich maroon background this time!
Enjoy! 🐡 🪶 🎨

This is #HumanMade. I don’t do gAI. I paint, print, package, and post it all myself. Here’s the speedpaint:

Das Bild zeigt eine leuchtend farbige Chameleonschlange, die auf einem Blumenstrauß sitzt. Die Chameleonschlange ist mit einem farbenfrohen Muster bedeckt, das eine Vielzahl von Neonfarben wie Pink, Grün, Blau und Gelb umfasst. Ihre Haut hat eine glänzende, skulpturale Textur, die die Farben hervorhebt. Die Chameleonschlange hat große, runde Augen, die aufmerksam in die Ferne blicken. Um sie herum sind mehrere Blumen zu sehen, die in dunklen Blautönen gehalten sind, was die leuchtenden Farben der Chameleonschlange noch hervorhebt. Der Hintergrund ist dunkel, was die Farben der Chameleonschlange noch stärker betont.

Press release time!
We found a trans-Neptunian Object (TNO) on a very cool orbit: 2020 VN40 orbits the sun exactly once in the same amount of time that Neptune orbits the sun exactly 10 times. It's really far from Neptune (and the rest of the planets), yet very strongly tied to Neptune due to this Mean-Motion Resonance (MMR) in its orbit.

Elon Musk Calls the U.S. Dollar 'Hopeless,' Says His America Party Will Embrace Bitcoin
The billionaire, in another escalating feud with Trump, suggests that crypto could be part of his plan to disrupt American politics.
The image shows a web interface for managing projects, likely from a software development platform. The interface is dark-themed with a navigation menu on the left side, labeled "Your work," and options such as "Projects," "Groups," "Issues," "Merge requests," "To-Do List," "Stickers," "Snippets," and "Activity." The main section of the page is titled "Projects" and includes a search bar with a filter dropdown set to "Contributed." Below the search bar, there are three project entries, each with a name, a visibility icon, and a creation timestamp. The projects are associated with the user "Vincent Wilcox" and are named "MastoCloud," "PrestoNowplaying," and "PrestoNowPlayingServer." The timestamps indicate that the projects were created recently, with the most recent one being created 40 minutes ago. A "New project" button is visible in the top right corner, and there is a "Explore projects" link next to it.

bei mir zu Hause ist es schon stockdunkel
Das Bild zeigt eine weite, offene Landschaft mit einer Feldfläche, die von hohen, trockenen Gräsern und vereinzelten Büschen bedeckt ist. Im Hintergrund erstreckt sich ein flaches, offenes Gelände bis zum Horizont, unter einem bedrohlichen, dunklen Himmel, der von dichten, grauen Wolken bedeckt ist. Links im Bild steht ein Gebäude mit einem Fahnenmast, an dem eine Flagge weht, und rechts sind weitere Gebäude sichtbar, einschließlich eines mit einem Dach, das von Bäumen umgeben ist. Eine Straße führt durch das Bild, und in der Ferne sind einige Fahrzeuge zu sehen. Die Atmosphäre des Bildes ist ruhig und melancholisch, mit einem Gefühl von Einsamkeit und Natur.

@Seirdy Mandating Javascript on a site is an undue trust requirement.
Even with a Free license there is no guarantee it is benign and no particular reason to risk it.

That way it makes sense.
- Anubis requires JS
- JS is a security risk for a lot of reasons
FSF post was looking more like throwing every plausible and made up reason together to justify hating on that particular piece of software...

yeah “we would be pressuring users into running malware” was like. wow.
i agree that forcing JS is a really awful solution but unless there’s a Web standard for remote-JS-free anti-LLM measures with comparable efficacy, I don’t see any good alternatives.
we don't need standards for this, we need common sense.
there's no compelling reason to put compute-heavy repository views bare-assed on the internet.
require login for compute-heavy views. ban accounts that abuse access. mercilessly rate-limit unauthenticated access. problem solved forever

The Chinese EV Carmaker That Is Quietly Crushing Tesla

I’m 63. I never thought that I would see anything like this, and I am sickened by the possibility that I might live the rest of my life in a country that’s going to be trying to dig out from under the damage that’s been caused so far. Damage to its reputation, to its institutions, its economy, its foreign relations - you pick.
The guy is pretty decent, but has lived a sheltered life. The bit highlighted is what happens every few years in countries like #Argentina. Neo-colonialist locusts swarm in, eat everything while we hunker down, and we get to do damage control and unfuck ourselves and rebuild. Never build to last. Nothing ever lasts but the ruins.
