As a son, every time I come home with a new tattoo my mom asks what it means, and I say ‘that I love my momma’. A joke, but expressive of the spirit of tattoo IMO.

The tattoos I have for my kids are a daddy bird famous for raising its young, a storybook character, a favorite flower. If my kids ever ask what they mean I can say, 'that I love you.

Not knowing you, Id tell anyone with a question like this to aim for something that says 'I love you, I love us." Names are not always forever. Ideas are though

Check out wispar. It has been a great app for staying up to date on topics. It is API based and not RSS but highly functional

The security community needs to understand privacy and security are the same. So many times I’ve heard infosec people act like they are unrelated

IMO once you get the fundamentals and feel film is for art and expression. You’d be mad not to use digital for work or volume. Film doesn’t scale vertically or horizontally without mad cash and skills

All my photography course work in journalism was shot on film; however in the news room it was all digital.

When asked, photojournalists I worked with be them professor, student, or professional, discussed photos as language. You learn to speak in film because it forces an understanding of the fundamentals.

In photo j the shots are not staged and you can maybe get two shots before the news is gone. That feels like film.

Film is also what people imagine when they think of authenticity. Those grains have very ’ dont quote the old magic to me… ’ vibe

Support if you like it and can. I use it everyday and can’t say enough nice things. They have a great telegram channel that is very active

Ha. The tubes were the final pieces to the getaway vehicle

Exactly right. My bad. Thanks for the reminder. Geography and majority opinions in the area were coloring my perspective but are not relevant

I’d have guessed white nationalist if it was anywhere but a bike shop

Speaking as a former kid of rural america you would be doing the lords work, friend

I was at the bike shop a few weeks back and a ghost walked in. He came in wearing a medical mask covered by a bandana, sunglasses, cap. They wore gloves, long sleaved pants and shirt.

First question from staff, ‘this a robbery?’

Ghost, ‘no, I just need 27 2.5 tubes, miss.’

They get the tubes, he agrees. Staff asks if he has an account. Ghost says, “nope, why would I need one?” Staff says they do it for records, insurance claim assist, and discounts. Ghost goes with a John Doe, pays cash and peaces the fuck out.

Total King, but dude was given up a lot. Half of us were drinking beers enjoying a warm evening in spring. I hope he has had some good rides.

I can say with confidence thay he was a white male. In his 50s. About 5’10". 140 lbs-ish. If anyone wants to get any tips, good luck!

Are the pharmaceuticals, health care, transportation, technology, and information industries not means to be seized?

China may produce the bulk of the physical products we use, but we produce thought and systems capitalists use for the benifut of the few. The means are for the many imo

I didn’t want it to end

Best $15 ive ever spent on headphones, and the mic makes me sound great too :)

Wired headphones. They dont ever need a charge and they make the content more immersive

I used Fitbook on fdroid for a bit. The best feature was support for weighing food to get calories.

My biggest frustration with apps today is the lack of support for home cooking. I cook most all food but it is a pain get nutritional information unless it comes from a box.

Ive been trying to find a tool that will let me dump in all ingredients by volume/weight so I know the caloric value of a meal. CooksIllustrated uses this https://api.edamam.com/ but I can’t find an easy way to bring dishes from magazines or cookbooks to it

I love them in the summer. They are refreshing.

I really like tacking a pack of la Croix (or kombutcha) to a party or BBQ. I can chug through them like beer and be a responsible human at the end of the event. That no calorie and not artificial shit is a big big plus

Putting up a synapse server in the public cloud and building bridges to the apps people use. At least I get my messaging in one place

I agree how these conclusions were developed is trash; however, there is real value to understanding the impact alignments have on a model.

There is a reason public llms don’t disclose how to make illegal or patented drugs. Llms shy away from difficult topics like genocide, etc.

It isnt by accident, they were aligned by corps to respect certain views of reality. All the llm does is barf out a statically viable response to a prompt. If they are weighted you deserve to know how

My family tree. I’ll be a miracle if I make it out of my sixties. Whereas my wife’s grand parents all made it to their mid-nineties.

She could likely live 30 years past the point of my death.
