Just got some Euro election mailouts in the door, and it seems that Niall Boylan is looking like the compromise candidate between the 'normal' candidates and the outliers. So this is where we are now. It is not good.

On day one of his presidency Trump intends to discard democracy in the USA (who knows in what way, but he has said that he intends to). And Biden is guaranteeing that this can happen, because he has been sponsored to enable genocide of Palestinians. That's quite a choice to make.

Marky Mark is tough cop, but even more he’s from Boston where the toughest cops are from and he’s more Boston than all the cops. On the mean streets that’s what matters. If you’re as Boston as him then you have the guns but you don’t need them because you’ve got tough Boston fists and a tough case

I’m sorry too, Steve. It’s incredible to think that I was here all day and never heard the doorbell once.

I think the people who put Balsamiq into Confluence should be arrested for crimes and then the punishment should be to carve out a living in Krasnoyarsk Krai equipped with an old toothbrush and a light jacket.

I was looking on Daft, the Irish property listings site, and I found what must be Zack Snyder's Irish home in Dunshaughlin. A large, modern, barren house shot in sepia.

Looking at the photos makes you feel like you've probably misunderstood a ground-breaking comic, and sad

It's unlikely that any of you have any intention of voting for Fine Gael, but if you had, for some reason, have a read of this and explain it to any of your friends or relatives with Long COVID: https://www.thejournal.ie/heather-humphreys-covid-19-occupational-illness-6390757-May2024/

It looks and feels like it should be lashing rain, but... it isn't. And the weather app says all fine.

Child seat has left the building! All good. Apparently I came across as a cranky oul’ one with my updated warning about not selling it on.

I’ve just been told “When boys come together, they become more stupid” and actually that’s a fantastic line. I don’t know the parent well enough to say so.

That was my primary school for a few years. It wasn't a very good primary school, but later on it became a music school. https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/music/2024/05/24/staff-are-in-shock-newpark-academy-of-music-in-south-dublin-to-close/

Euclid Paper Day!

This morning's arXiv update brought the expected deluge of preprints from Euclid. You can find details of all fifteen of the new articles here. Ten of them relate to the Early Release Observations of which five were announced yesterday and five last November. These are essentially byproducts of the testing and calibration phase of the Euclid mission rather than the main cosmological survey.

Why are the Far Right so bad at graphic and information design? Like, they've got the funding, presumably from Putin, but it's usually terrible. That's a good thing, but it's just odd how they provide their own handicaps.

DuckDuckGo, the search engine I use as my reliable alternative to Google, is down.

In other news, I've discovered that I know absolutely nothing about anything. I don't even know how socks work, or what air does. I'm lost.

Outrage that a reckless driver's car might gently beep at them.

...as early as 2032:

The technology uses GPS to compare a vehicle's speed with a dataset of posted speed limits. Once the car is at least 10 mph over the speed limit, the system would...

Heads up to anyone using facebook or insta: you'll receive a notification about your data being used to train AIs. The opt out process is deliberately convoluted and you have to fill out a form to object. This is what I wrote in mine, and the objection was immediately registered as successful, so feel free to copy.

Masto reply bores, this is not a post on which to fart out your opinions about Meta or AI or whatever. So don't. I'm sharing helpful info for people who need it, not for you.
