Crows and magpies are fucking cool:

"Here we report the first well-documented study on nests of carrion crow "Corvus corone" and Eurasian magpie "Pica pica" that almost entirely consist of material that is meant to deter birds: anti-bird spikes. Carrion crows in Rotterdam (The Netherlands) and Eurasian magpies in Enschede (The Netherlands), Antwerp (Belgium), and Glasgow (Scotland) tear entire strips with sharp metal pins off buildings and use them as nesting material."

@Doomed_Daniel very cool. A very outdoorsy friend of mine once told me to never fuck with crows, they are very smart, they'll remember and pay you back eventually.

“The life expectancy in the South and they’re not expanding Medicaid and prenatal care and providing child care? It’s jaw-dropping…Infant mortality? You care about life, and you have kids that are gunned down by weapons of war?“

Wow.

This is the messaging you need Dems

Take Gavin’s example. Fight.

@flexghost if he doesn't understand how those guys keep getting re-elected in the south, I suspect his own chances of beating that trend are slim.

is now shipping on the 'sniper' runtime. Big changes behind the scenes ..

It's the first game to upgrade, with newer compiler and runtime libraries for improved performance and compatibility.

@popey oh woops

@popey I had to rush out a new release this week due to Arch moving to Python 3.11 - we might need to make an AUR.

Inspired by @i_lost_my_bagel - I converted one of my drives to winbtrfs (NTFS before on the left, WinBTRFS on the right)

TTimo,
@TTimo@mastodon.social avatar

@i_lost_my_bagel I'm ok with that - reasonable tradeoff for the other advantages.

TTimo,
@TTimo@mastodon.social avatar

@binarycrusader @i_lost_my_bagel this system is dual booting so it'll be nice to have easy access to the drive from Linux. And having copy on write enables some workflows that I've only been able to do on Linux so far.

TTimo,
@TTimo@mastodon.social avatar

@binarycrusader @i_lost_my_bagel I don't follow closed source Windows technology very much, but having shipped 10 years ago, it seems ReFS should have gained more traction by now? Maybe it's an Azure thing mostly?

@TTimo Hey hey! Sorry if this isn't the place to ask. Seems I can't get into the Steam SDK GitLab to ask or file an issue. Is there any specific reason the Steam SDK Client for Deck isn't available for M1? Looks mostly Python, so could possibly be built for it as well as Windows and Linux? Was developing on Linux and then picked up the M1 Mac and realized the client wasn't available so had to slum it with rsync to get stuff over.

TTimo,
@TTimo@mastodon.social avatar

@popey hey .. you are correct, there shouldn't be major obstacles to running the devkit tool on MacOS. We use a pre-built wheel of PyImGui .. cxFreeze may need a bit of attention also.

TTimo,
@TTimo@mastodon.social avatar

@popey gitlab's project visibility and permission settings are a bit abstruse - issue tracking and merge requests are all enabled but I see in settings that you may have to "request access" first (which I'll grant of course).

TTimo,
@TTimo@mastodon.social avatar

end user experience is pretty solid overall, but the experience as a dev wanting to bring an app to it is rather bare.

Very minimalistic documentation, poor support for dev and debug workflows.

If the goal is to get more folks contributing packages, it would need a solution that compares favorably with toolbox/distrobox.
