I'm gonna be doing my daily gouache painting challenge #septempera again this year (probably intermittently more than daily as it's my way, who are we kidding) - anyone who wants to join me is very welcome! 😊

Here's some little paintings from other years.

20 years ago today, Death Cab for Cutie released ‘Plans’. Their major-label debut reached the Billboard Top 5, went Platinum, and gave us classics like “Soul Meets Body,” “Crooked Teeth,” and “I Will Follow You into the Dark.”


Europe is the world's fastest warming continent.

The framing that global heating was a problem for the global south for equatorial regions was the conceit of impunity of the developed world, the global financial and industrial core

Full accord with your points re. climate catastrophe & Imperialist impunity.
That said, my understanding is that Europe is likely to suffer uninhabitable cooling when the AMOC breaks down.
Yes, I did not say 'if.' (Tipping points & feedback loops, ya know...)

If we have learned anything about climatological models is, they are too conservative to accurately track the actual response.

They can only report on data they have observed and analyzed but the chief characteristic of a complex system like the planet's climate is a transition state transition chaotic. It is extremely difficult to predict.

The easy analogy is a speaker feedback from a microphone. That explosive squawk is the nature of the feedback

À Karlsruhe, un artiste entraîne les oiseaux à chanter des mélodies antifascistes

heureusement il nous reste la musique, chanter comme sur le Titanic … bonne fin du monde, laissons les oiseaux tranquille 🙏🌍


Stella continues to heal.

From the injuries, it seems she landed on her left side - both left legs give her trouble, and that’s the side with the broken tooth.

She felt better enough this morning that she climbed the single stair up onto the entryway floor.

If the choice is between Hitlerian AI and accurate AI, Trump is between a rock and a hard place. An AI like Grok that says—“I am MechaHitler!”—might expose his ideology a little too bracingly.

But an accurate AI will contradict his lies. trib.al/W3rCs0O

As a #blind #hacker I often get the question of how to break into the #cybersecurity field when #accessibility is a concern. What courses, platforms and tools would work best?
One consequence of this is the IC_Null channel on #Twitch where I look into various aspects of this in live streams through the lens of a #screenReader user.
What I haven't done yet, is an outright head-to-head between the various answers you usually get to this question: #hackTheBox, #tryHackMe, #picoCTF, #parrotCTFS, #letsDefend , etc.
In tonight's stream that is a question we'll start responding to. This is useful for people who develop for the #web, are active in the #ctf organizing space or just work in #tech in general. In two hours, I shall be dissecting a few of these platforms from an accessibility perspective and point out the failings, as well as things that are actually really good!
Would love to have you join, over at twitch.tv/ic_null and/or youtube.com/@viewpointUnseen #selfPromo #stream

Sorry, maar dit is eng:
Op het Volt-congres wiegen, dansen en klappen de leden betoverd mee op de muziek.

"Hij vraagt de aanwezigen op te staan, wat meteen gebeurt, en de ogen te sluiten. Dan ontstaat een extatische sfeer die nog het meest lijkt op die van een Pinkstergemeente op het moment dat de Heilige Geest wordt aangeroepen."

Ik blijf nog even bij de nuchtere @Piratenpartij

nou ik was er bij en extatisch zou ik dat niet noemen hoor. Het was gewoon even klappen en enthousiast doen. Mag ook wel na een lange dag. Ik kreeg niet de indruk dat de aanwezigen blinde volgers waren. Eng was het zeker niet. Er is genoeg reflectie en discussie over veel punten.

Maar ik kan me voorstellen dat als je er alleen een plaatje van ziet dat je het geheel niet ziet.

dat artikel is een weergave van de laatste 15 minuten, de sluiting, van het congres. Er staat niets over de maanden voorbereiding, het feit dat álle leden mee hebben kunnen schrijven aan het verkiezingsprogramma, dat we de hele zaterdag punten/amendementen hebben besproken en een groot deel van de kandidaten zich hebben voorgesteld. Een goed journalist had dat ook beschreven.

Om te focussen op die laatste 15 minuten is mijns inziens gewoon vals framen. Beetje jammer

@Marguerite Ja, dat is idd wel kwalijk. Weet je toevallig ook of de leeftijdsgrens voor sociale media weggestemd is uit het verkiezingsprogramma?

@Piratenpartij #privacy #leeftijdsgrens

in reply to Catharina Bethlehem ☑️ Cath

woord leeftijdsgrens komt 2x voor in de conceptversie. 1x bij "Volt laat de leeftijdsgrens van 18 jaar los in de jeugdzorg met verblijf, zoals gezinshuizen en gesloten jeugdzorg." en 1x bij "We willen betere toegang tot cultuureducatie en bibliotheken door de middelen die provincies voor cultuureducatie ontvangen, te verhogen en door de leeftijdsgrens voor een gratis lidmaatschap van de openbare bibliotheek te verhogen."

Bedoel je die?'




Why China has a tech manufacturing advantage over the U.S.


While Americans lament their crumbling infrastructure, China is rapidly expanding high-speed rail, subway systems, and airports across the country. Chinese tech products, from autonomous vehicles to drones to addiction-inducing algorithms, have won over global consumers and put companies such as BYD, DJI, and TikTok in pole position.

China’s prowess in engineering and manufacturing is now at the center of the U.S.–China rivalry in artificial intelligence. Despite Washington’s efforts to block China from advancing in AI, the country has continued to make progress in developing chips and training state-of-the-art large language models.

Dan Wang moved to Canada at age seven from Yunnan in southwestern China. A former tech analyst at Gavekal Dragonomics, his stints in Hong Kong, Beijing, and Shanghai allowed him to closely observe China’s trajectory. In his new book, Breakneck: China’s Quest to Engineer the Future, Wang compares the country’s “engineering” state, which favors large-scale manufacturing, with America’s “lawyerly” society, which he believes hinders new construction and development.

Cette photo c'était en octobre 2024. Là y en avait des millions. Je me souviens avoir kayaké dedans, c'était comme être dans une soupe de méduses, et quand tu remontais la pagaie il y avait des méduses accrochées dessus. C'est pas à ce niveau-là, aujourd'hui, mais assez pour na pas trop vouloir nager dedans.


So I can see a users posts with replies (e.g. cosocial.ca/@maj/with_replies ) is there an option for seeing *just* posts from the user _without_ boosts? I.e. just the things they have written?

I imagine a workaround where you tag your own things and then have a pinned post linking to that (like I do with cosocial.ca/@maj/tagged/work)

Other countries protect workers from job loss.

In the U.S. – not so much. Add #AI into the mix and America’s “exceptionalism” could mean deeper job insecurity.
