I love Oblivion's mechanics so much more than skyrim's. Just got my illusion skill to a point where I can cast invisibility whenever and I should now be unstoppable 😈

“Seeing with the Hands” is the latest #CHI2025 research from our lab Shan-Yuan with Gene S-H Kim and Xuanyou (Zed) Liu. We explore a sensory substitution that enables a flexible way of seeing (vision-to-electrotactile), e.g., hover an object and feel its shape before grasping if one cannot see! Next talk (in 10m) at Annex F204!

Maybe hell is just entering your email and password over and over with a TV remote.

@CursedSilicon this is literally me 😝
@CursedSilicon Idk I am actually way more happy. It sucks but it's also so much less stress
I am now up to date on Android Studio's use of .aar dependencies and know that you need to fully delete a module if you ever hope to truly remove it from the build cache 🤪
Here's the meetup link for those interested! https://www.meetup.com/decentralized-ottawa/events/307548114/
Went for a walk on my lunch break and got totally soaked in the thunderstorm 🤪 I swear I saw a flash if lightning just a few meters away before a bigger bolt hit a tree.
@lowpass Yeah! I was thinking we could do that as a topic for one of the events. I've been thinking of setting up a node in nepean

My honest opinion: Taxpayer money should be spent wisely. That means investing in #opensource software, not expensive proprietary technology. Better value, more transparency, and no vendor lock-in.
Would it be too much to ask that OS's stop introducing breaking changes all the time? 🙃 Having to rework builds every year is exhausting.

I think federation is cool but unlike eugen I am aware it is fundamentally incompatible with recreating network effect corporate tech platforms and I think that's a good thing. like I'm so fine with being in a network of like, 12 servers loosely connected to a network of 100 itself tenuously connected to the wider world where a handful of people trickle in and self select for the vibes we have cultivated. I think it would be neat if I could have the same experience with every other tech product as well
@fleeky Eh, I've been wading through hellfire long enough it's just the status quo.
Now that I went through the hell of turning an example Android app to a library, I now get to go through the hell of figuring out how Android studio uses aar files now, and then the hell of figuring out how chromium's Android build system to figure out how to pull an asset out of the AAR into somewhere the Java side can read
@light Canadian federal election today.
@ryanramage Always do! I'm thinking I'll look into volunteering one of these years too.
Writhing 🥰🎀✨
