@madeindex Ha - no! Kind of a long-running inside joke

When I was in high school, my buddies and I always said when we grew up we wanted to run a company called Malicious Enterprises that did some sort of unspecified volcano-lair ominous stuff

My in-laws have a farm outside of Oklahoma City they call Green Acres

So we call our ranch Malicious Acres

My sister-in-law made the logo and we stamp it on everything. Hence the Malicious Gym sign

We also have hats, t-shirts, and coozies!

The image depicts a muscular man balancing on a tightrope, with his back to the viewer. He is shirtless and wearing a loincloth. The background is split into two halves: the left side shows a blue sky with white clouds, while the right side shows a starry black space. The man's arms are outstretched, and he appears to be in a precarious position. The text "Extreme narcissism" is written in white capital letters on the left side, and "Extreme self hate" is written on the right side. The image is overlaid with the text "[@]meethimaut" at the bottom.

Buen dรญa, miserables.

Las fuentes de luz son una vieja obsesiรณn mรญa. Afortunadamente lo son tambiรฉn para Alec Watson aka "el gordito de Technology Connections", quien le dedicรณ media amorosa hora a un invento que en cada una de sus partes hubiera hecho enloquecer y perpetrar crรญmenes para obtenerlo a nuestros antepasados.

(Hablando de locura y criminalidad: "carrera hacia el abismo". O "al hoyo". No importa quรฉ tan buena sea una idea, siempre algรบn delincuente la arruina, sea minimizando componentes electrรณnicos, buscando los mรกs baratos que hacen funcionar el aparato UNA vez, diseรฑando mecรกnicamente para "fabricabilidad" y no "reparabilidad"... Recordemos no confundir, la "rotura programada" es simple y comรบn, no pide ofrecer mejores productos ahora o en el futuro, sรณlo mรกs de lo mismo.)

Los subtรญtulos traducidos automรกticamente al espaรฑol no son precisamente cuidados, pero sin habรฉrmelos fumado enteros me atrevo a suponer que entenderรกn lo que decรญa el guiรณn original. Y si no, me preguntan.

Volviendo a mi problema, agradezcan que nunca les curtรญ la paciencia con la lรกmpara de Nernst, por la que me preguntรณ @beckermatic en otra red hace algo de cuatro aรฑos, capaz porque en esos dรญas saliรณ este detallado video de otro enfermo a quien se extraรฑa. Si viรฉramos en una longitud de onda mรกs larga hubieran sido la lรกmpara incandescente, nada de filamentos siempre al borde de partirse suspendidos dentro de vidrios aรบn mรกs frรกgiles.


Buen dรญa, miserables.

Hoy finalmente retirรฉ del servicio las dos รบltimas lรกmparas fluorescentes compactas que habรญa en mi casa--mientras todavรญa les queda algo de vida รบtil, porque soy una vieja sensiblera y no las quiero guardar ya muertitas.

Fueron unas lindas dรฉcadas, y una tecnologรญa disfrutable para nosotras las enfermitas. Despuรฉs de los aรฑos de laburo que insumiรณ adaptar tubos plegados al formato requerido y construir bases que incluyeran un balasto, en su versiรณn original magnรฉtico, que las hacรญa pesar arriba de medio kilo sumado al grueso vidrio difusor, y desde fines de los ochentas en adelante electrรณnico (pero miren la bestia que fue al principio, con un capacitor electrolรญtico grueso como un dedo), se llegรณ a productos razonablemente eficientes y longevos si no se los maltrataba.

Pero esa parte la explica mejor el gordo de "Technology Connections": youtube.com/watch?v=_AdBcTMHG0โ€ฆ

Me limitarรฉ a contemplar en mi mente cada uno de los desarrollos que culminaron en estos objetos de complejidad decididamente moderada para nuestra รฉpoca, pero demencial para cualquier artesano o ingeniero de principios del siglo XIX. (Sรญ, cuando se estaba aรบn desculando la electricidad. Buena รฉpoca.)

ยกBrindo por la feliz jubilaciรณn de quienes me iluminaron por tanto tiempo!

Y no teman encariรฑarse con las herramientas que nos han servido. Es bueno ser agradecidos en la vida.

These are 2nd instars. I am sure I am missing quite a few as they are so small right now.

My foxy visitor seems to have slowed down a bit lately, taking time to sniff around and hole still long enough to see their face.

I've been seeing the fox for a few months now, and I wonder if there are other foxes and/or maybe babies somewhere by now.

in reply to Jonly

@Jonly They're just tiny! Wikipedia says about 8 to 16 pounds so not much larger (and often smaller than) a domestic cat.

Alia is athletic - kinda important attribute for one of the climactic scenes at the beginning of Part 3 of "A New Faith"

Instinctive in a good way. Listens to her gut feelings and hunches. Always checks them out.

Open-minded enough to think outside-the-box. Again, in a good way. Doesn't necessarily go down rabbit-holes for the heck of it.

Liberals are gutting workersโ€™ rights with legal trickery while pretending to respect them. The tactics include bypassing unions, killing strikes through imposed arbitration, and, โ€˜Independentโ€™ inquiries justifying wage cuts.

The goal is to crush union power under Carneyโ€™s โ€˜prosperityโ€™ agenda.

Liberals frame labour fights as individual greed obscuring the class struggle. This is a slow-motion union bust on national scale.

Ouch!

I've been really lucky lately re-entering the Linux world. Sites and people are offering me GUIs whether I want them or not. I think that's kind of nice and would like to see more of it.



I'd like to see what @altbot will think of this photo. This is me circa 2000 performing a Rock Bottom, The Rock's signature wrestling move, on one of my friends.

Back when we didn't take "Don't try this at home" too seriously.

The image is a black and white photograph featuring three individuals in a dynamic pose. The central figure is leaning back with their head tilted to the side, wearing a white sleeveless shirt and light blue jeans. They are making a hand gesture near their face. The person behind them is wearing a dark shirt with a graphic design and dark pants, with their hand raised. The third person is partially visible, wearing a dark shirt and pants, standing behind the central figure. The background is plain and dark, with no distinct features. The lighting is low, creating shadows and emphasizing the figures' movements.

Die Stiftung Kinder forschen (= eine relativ groรŸe Organisation im Bereich der frรผhen MINT-Bildung) setzt organisationsintern mit Mistral auf ein #OpenSource KI -Sprachmodell, weil Offenheit und Mรผndigkeit wichtige Grundwerte sind. Ein tolles Beispiel, das zeigt, dass KI-Nutzung nicht automatisch proprietรคre Modelle bedeuten muss. Bitte mehr davon! ๐Ÿ‘


Thus, according to her way of thinking, she justifies the #holocaust.
