Is this a good time to bring up my deeply held belief that people should be allowed to vote in elections even if they are convicted felons

@Catawu@mastodon.social avatar

@mcc I think they should vote even if they are in prison. That might bring attention to the overpopulation in prisons, and we might see improvements on how we treat humans we convict.

holy shit. if you are using for OTP codes on iOS, DO NOT UPDATE and go into your app right now and try to take a backup before it updates. (if you already updated and if you have a second device linked that hasn't updated, hope you can get a backup from that.)

Is there a good resource or book for learning about some of the details of how webservers work?

For example if I want an IP address on a intranet to be a webpage that people on that intranet can go to... how would I set that up from scratch. Let's say I have a machine with a static IP on the local net... (but what I really also need to understand is how a static IP is established locally, a DNS?)

Maybe the dream book or resource doesn't exist. But I ask anyway.

(it's macs if that matters)

Hey Canadian nerds! I have held the domain registration for regex.ca for a very long time. When I lived in Canada it was my primary domain, but I haven't used it for years. Does anyone on the fediverse have a good use for it?

I'm going to release it but if you've got a good pitch I'll pay for a 1 year renewal and then transfer it to your ownership.

Please boost for visibility kthx!

I've been aware of the idea since my late teens or early twenties or so, but I've really come to appreciate in the last couple of years to what degree the information your senses tell you is subjective to the point of approaching total fiction.

@aeva@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

There's something I read a few years ago that I think about a lot, where it is theorized that the psychological mechanism behind tool use is this: we habitually incorporate objects into our own body schemas, which allows us to both operate the tool without extra cognitive load, but also this creates new temporary ad hoc sense through interpretation.

This is a remarkable graph.

You might have heard that "EV sales are slumping", "people are starting to avoid EVs", etc.

That's not what's happening.

What's happening is "Tesla is cratering so hard that it's skewing the aggregate market data."

I completely forgot I uploaded VistaPro 3.20 (the scenery renderer) to the Internet Archive, where you can run it from your browser. For those sudden urges of wanting to create some landscapes.

https://archive.org/details/vistapro320

Includes the MakePath tool.

Don't forget to take screenshots of your creations! Nothing can be retrieved from the disk the in-browser DOSBox keeps, as far as I know.

(Please be patient with the Archive's speed, they're dealing with persistent DDoS attacks at the moment)

@mcc me thinking about using systemd: "I don't understand why people are so mad about this, launchd is better than sysv init, this is just launchd for linux, I guess they couldn't just port it because some low-level stuff is different but I'm sure it's basically the same"

me actually using systemd: "fuck fuck what is this shit what the fuck why didn't they just actually port launchd to linux, there's no excuse for this"

mcc,
@mcc@mastodon.social avatar

@glyph it's extra weird because whenever I read the description of how a thing is architected in systemd I go oh, that's pretty reasonable, that's a good way to do it. And then I use it and I just doesn't live up to what I expected, either because of some horrible gaping sore in the UX or because they constrained the functionality to some really narrow case (I assume, something RHEL asked for) and didn't anticipate even slight generalizations of the use case

For the last two years I've been semi-daily posting "What I'm Listening to Today" links here. Mastodon has some problems with threads containing hundreds of posts, so I re-create the thread once a year.

If you'd like to see, here's my "year two" thread: https://mastodon.social/@mcc/110266770603341546

Or, alternately, every song from year two in the least practical format possible: A 301-song, 38-hour YouTube playlist (note: video #1 contains flashing):

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLIjft6ja7DM_kacOW8zo2vtr-aWpTNX6

And here's the thread for "year three":

What I'm listening to today: "Battery Driven", quadratschulz

This is a quirky little hiphop jam on a small collection of handheld/toy synthesizer equipment. Featuring 808 tom bips, Chase Bliss pedal mangling, and extended vocals by Miku Hatsune. For serious. That stylophone looking thing is the "Gakken Otona no Kagaku NSX-39 Pocket Miku Singing Keyboard", an officially licensed Vocaloid product. Skranky

What I'm listening to today: "Sound Check pre serata - 03052024", Michele Giletto

A modular synth jam based around the Make Noise Shared System. It's thumping and intent, Detroit style, with feedback as a musical element. It builds a really cool feel out of minimal elements, I like the way the rhythm seems to kind of catch on itself.

This one's 10 minutes long, if that's too long for you 6:20 would be a okay time to stop as it enters a kind of separate movement then.
