I am still deciphering my emotional response to, "Why have a Linux system when you could install Linux in Windows?" What are equivalents? "Why have plain pizza when you could have it with anchovies?" "Why use milk when you could have twice as much by adding water?" "Why catch a cold when you could just catch COVID?"

I'm a firm believer of Hanlon's Razor, but over a week, Facebook has flagged a post and a comment of mine, both about Mastodon (and including a link to joinmastodon.org)

Generating visual mnemonics to learn Chinese characters with the help of neural networks

By graphically representing its own meaning, my hypothesis is that this will create more associations between meaning and shape— making each character easier to remember

First, I enjoyed the joke. Second, it should be noted that the Java-brand of OOP is not representative of true OOP (eg data-flair.training/blogs/is-j). Reminds me, I still need to learn CLOS!

This is one of the major benefits I've enjoyed about Garden for four years: easy nesting of the rules. Nice to see css proper may catch up. github.com/noprompt/garden

I saw this toot before I saw the thread and thought you were talking about Enter the Spiderverse.

Where can I find Red Panda?

The new show had an incompatible tone with the original pilots, being firmly rooted in our reality like the movies at the time. In our history. But unlike those movies (X-Men, Sam Raimi's Spiderman, Hulk, Batman Begins, Hellboy, etc) Gregg Taylor doesn't seem to see cheesiness as conflicting with realism. Darkness with lightheartedness. Magic with pseudoscience.

And he got better production quality without professional support! And as much time to tell his story as he needed.

5/5 Fin.

great to have that all in one place. I can relate, I usually use archlinux docs even if im not on archlinux specifically because I know they will give me the command line way of doing things. Plus Archlinux is fairly vanilla.

@hans_w

good stuff. I appeciate the distinction of AWK vs SED, which I've been fuzzy on

I, too, am very pleased with my Mastodon <-> Twitter setup, like @writh. Firefox containers and "always open this site in container..." do wonders for keeping it straight, combined with liberal usage of moa.party as per @freemo suggestion!
