EA will not get my money ever again. Nor will any company who associates with Andrew Fucking Wilson. Mass Effect is guaranteed income. Bioware was chock full of talent and experience.

The eMudhra stuff dropping the same night as a full RCE for PHP is brutal, pour a 40 out for every IT person in your life.

The Onion, dropping the satire again.

Well, my firmware team has had a "shakeup" and a bunch of senior devs and myself are without jobs. I should probably get my sourdough starter woken up. Anyone need a fully remote embedded firmware dev, uav pilot, electronics engineer?

This whole Rolling Stone bit about a song is just their way of trying to get airtime for a crap song they were paid to boost. Don't reward this kind of behavior by trying to go listen to the song.

If you bring a drink to an interview, good on you. Stay hydrated, ffs.

Made Banh Mi sandwiches for dinner tonight. Made my own paté (10x too much), got good pork roll meat, pickled my own vegetables, the whole thing, except making my own baguettes because I'm just half dead these days and didn't have the energy. I would have taken a picture but I was far too hungry :P

The proposal would remove more than 500 AI-powered license plate readers across Oregon amid growing resistance. https://mrf.lu/2jdTL

Dolly Parton. Tim Curry. Peter Cullen. My childhood is taking a bit of a beating this week.

The world is worse off without Dolly Parton in it. Be like Dolly: care for others, make the world a better place.

I created a site that let's you find out about regulations in your area regarding 3D Printing. Check it out and bookmark. Next update will highlight all the grants that support 3D Printing and more! 3dprintingisnotacrime.org

Such days.

Well damn. Air filters to Max.

Looks like the football world has balls. We shall see how tough they are.

Honestly, their biggest mistake is thinking that Americans will side with the government over Taco Bell. Talk about not knowing your constituents.

The Pentagon is withholding causality and hit numbers. The CDC is withholding infection rates. The FDA is withholding information about food contamination. The EPA is withholding pollution and climate data. This corrupt administration is ALL about concealing the consequences of its incompetence.

We knew this is what Sleepy Don Whoreleone was doing in order to make it seem like oil prices weren't spiking dramatically. Thankfully not as bad as my own estimation. Still, that's a staggering amount of reserve oil used in a short period. It is criminally irresponsible, as the Orange Idiot is.

Flock u.

Lindsey Graham on Gaza: "Just flatten it, like we flattened Tokyo and Berlin." Lindsey Graham on the Iran War: "We are going to make tons of money." Lindsey Graham on Renée Nicole Good: "She deserved what happened. She provoked ICE." As grandma used to say: GOOD RIDDANCE TO BAD RUBBISH.

Had not seen this line in a privacy policy before: "We may purchase and collect data about you from third parties to improve our marketing and communication with you." Um. No. You will not.

I was today-years-old when I realized that Alucard is just Dracula backwards. wtf how did I miss that?

It just gets worse… youtu.be/N5KsXvSiVgY?...

This is what quality reporting looks like.

Local store actually had a few small bags of this Coriander (Cilantro) flavor. These were supposedly a Taiwan limited edition release. I love Cilantro, so I grabbed them. The good: they actually taste like Cilantro. The bad: they're SWEET. WTF is up with Asian Doritos all being super sweet? Gross.

Well poo. Likely means I won't be able to get one until Q4. #steammachine

I need you to know that the shipping container into which the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope was packed for transport to the launchpad is called the Chariot, and the barge pulling the container to Cape Kennedy is called the Pegasus. So yes, this is a picture of a Pegasus pulling a Roman Chariot.

Heyyyy a new legal pod just dropped!

dbrand is making a Weighted Companion Cube case for the new Steam Machine. FML. Take my money.

FACT CHECK: TRUE

I was really hoping to take the wife to the Oregon Rennaisance Faire this weekend. Turns out you can only purchase tickets online through AXS, and you are required to create an online account and use the AXS app for entry. No paper tickets allowed. Fuck off, #renfaire. I'll go to Silverton instead.

That's one good way of simplifying it. Also needs to point out that the cost of the pool was unbid, overpriced, and stole money from taxpayer pockets in the process.

I'm watching the live stream of the workers removing the marmalade moron's name off of the Kennedy Center and I'm noticing how many of the workers are darker skinned. My brain worries that they'll send ICE over there to stop the work. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAhm...

Fuck, what a headline.

In the 1980s, if you wanted your IBM PC to be faster for spreadsheets or CAD, you could buy the Intel 8087 floating-point chip. Internally, the chip runs special code called microcode. We opened the chip, extracted the microcode, and are figuring out how it works. 1/n

Your occasional reminder that China is currently installing 3.5GW of solar per week. That's THE TOTAL GENERATING CAPACITY OF THE ENTIRE UK FROM ALL SOURCES every five months.

Prusa ColorMix is here: our open-source color mixing model for PrusaSlicer and EasyPrint! 🎨 Full-spectrum printing has been growing fast in the community, so we developed our own model. It predicts the final color you’ll see when different filament colors are printed in thin alternating layers. 1/2

Time for some wrapping up for GB Compo 25! youtu.be/JI5649nTCJQ #gbcompo25 #gbcompo

Required viewing for anyone who has a shred of hope left for the future of American Democracy. youtu.be/tIBCjzz-bmk?...

It has come to my attention that in my 14 years of flying, 5 of the aircraft I've flown have been destroyed in accidents (by others). N166TW going down at Catalina being the most recent. My checkout in this aircraft was also at Catalina. 2 Cherokees, a Cessna, and Chuck Coleman's Extra 300L. 😩

When a federal agency tasked with protecting all Americans decides to mandate a specific religious worldview, it ceases to protect democracy and begins to threaten it.

I picked up kit #200 of the OtterX from @wavicle9.bsky.social at the VCF PNW event recently. Time to get to work on assembly! All sorts of goodies and upgrades too. Gotta fire up the @prusa3d.com and get a case printed out too.
