This, from my first book #TheIdiotBrain, remains the most unsettlingly astute paragraphs I've ever written.

#ClimateDiary 1/2 An area slightly larger than entire Germany, a little smaller than Montana, 146,000 sq mi.

The Baltic Sea.

The status is horrendous. Matter of fact, since the 2010 reports, no substantial decreasing trends could be observed at all! Digest that!

Now, politicos are all Gung-Ho on air again, we'll do this, we'll do that. New technology, blah blah.

Baltic sea is fucked up, dying.

Help! Help! I am trapped

Save me before they

Some new crops from the second #allotment plot.

We're pretty late on the zucchinis, but they have arrived!

And our first ever daikon!

Never have I had a sweeter crisper daikon, it's so good. Was worried they'd be no good as they had sent up flower stalks but unlike a normal radish that does not seem to have turned them into inedible woodiness. Hurrah.

The extra allotment space has definitely allowed us the chance to grow a lot of things we never have before. Daikon is one of them.

Mathematics academics (or people with a PhD in a maths-y subject), I have just been told about a great toy: Mathematics Genealogy. You can type in any academic's name and find who their PhD supervisor was and who they supervised. It goes all the way back to Newton (and back even before that). Someone I met today can trace their supervisor chain all the way back to Newton himself...

Jutro, we wtorek 18 lipca 2023 o godzinie 17:00 koło pomnika Światowida pod Wawelem (u wylotu ulicy Grodzkiej na Wawel) rozpocznie się comiesięczna antyrządowa demonstracja związana ze spodziewanym przyjazdem Jarosława Kaczyńskiego i jego przydupasów na groby smoleńskie na Wawelu (18. jest miesięcznica pogrzebu Lecha i Marii Kaczyńskich). Bądź razem z nami! Wyraź swój sprzeciw wobec rządów PiS i Zjednoczonej Prawicy.

w wieku 47 lat zmarł Nathaniël Gomes, fryzjer z Rotterdamu pochodzenia kabowerdeńskiego, twórca potrawy o nazwie kapsalon (dosłownie po niderlandzku: salon fryzjerski), którą można teraz zjeść i w polskich kebabiarniach (i wielu zamawiających myśli, że to tradycyjne danie arabskie czy tureckie)

Please let your lawn die.

Kurwa.

Wchodzę do swojej klatki przed chwilą, i zastaję dziewczynkę, na oko 10-11 lat, skuloną na bosaka pod drzwiami sąsiadów. Pytam co się stało. „Mama mnie z domu wyrzuciła.” Pytam dlaczego. „Bo nie chciałam jej książki dać.”

Pukam do drzwi sąsiadów, grzecznie się przedstawiam, że ja z drzwi obok. Otworzył mi łysy pan, nieco przy tuszy, i mowię, że zastałem córkę pod drzwiami płaczącą. Na co pan wzywa z głębi mieszkania mamę (wychodzi na to, że to nie ojciec biologiczny).

Pls boost so I can show my wife how a toot can go round the world

(we are boarding a long haul flight and will be on the other side of the world when I turn my phone back on, so even with 0 boosts I think this will be a sound demonstration)

@smallsees It seems it is not, I found this:

"Each character in the pass-phrase must have an encoding in the range of 32 to 126 (decimal), inclusive. (IEEE Std. 802.11i-2004, Annex H.4.1) The space character is included in this range."

So I have queried...

As a "made up excuse" that was pretty impressive though - making me actually check references to disprove it.

(Now I worry if chatgpt was involved)

Mieszkanie na wsi > Mieszkanie w bloku.

Widzę to teraz, szczególnie w takie upały.

These qualifications added onto the terms of the Hugo Award vote raise a lot of concerns.

Remember when lots of journalists tried Mastodon but then found it too complicated, so they left? I think about that every time I read their 'analysis' of something

You wouldn't believe that these powerful legs belong to this little ball of fluff. When camouflage no longer helps, running is the only defense against predators.

Don’t tick the “next day delivery” box without really needing it. Urgent delivery means that delivery vehicles go out only partly full and travel further to get to delivery sites that are more spaced out. It basically chops off a large part of the energy, human and cost efficiency of mass parcel delivery, but it’s ooooh, soo seductive. Please don’t fall for it (it’s a marketing ploy), unless the sky is going to fall in if you don’t get widget A by tomorrow. #climate #Mail #Delivery
