BROSLEEP Weighted Suppression Shroud
This ain’t a blanket—it’s a full-body restraint system for when your demons start whispering after lights out. 40 lbs of pure, bro-approved compression. Like being pinned by a wrestler who never judges your nightmares. Sleep hard. Feel nothing.

also really annoying when apps force you to update for no reason other than “this version is old :(“ and then the updated version doesn’t work because they upped the minimum os requirement also for no reason. it was working fine before the time bomb went off
To be clear I am not a wallclock hater. I've used it too and it's fine for like 99% of situations (if not more)
What's a clock drift? About 50 milliseconds. 🤣
Lamport timestamps? Merkle Clocks? ha ha I think you mean `Date.now()`.
What's a clock drift??
HLCs get a pass.

wallclock based yolo conflict resolution is the powerhouse of the decentralized system.
BTW I got a shittier (and cheaper!) version of this so I'll see if I can make any progress on it.
15. Since I am insatiable I'm thinking about replacing my GPD Win 4 with a Framework 13 mainboard case and a bunch of peripherals: https://www.printables.com/model/1051364-framework-13-mainboard-case-with-battery
Ideally I'd need to remix this to add places for straps to attach.
Hopefully this meetup will accept my proposal for a WebCrypto talk some time this summer so I can show folks how fun it is.
I've been keeping a log of cool links I've found on the web: https://blog.mauve.moe/posts/links
Once I figure out my gemini hosting setup I'll have them up on there too 😸
I think it's cool that web browsers have built in APIs for doing #cryptography stuff without needing to worry about pulling in dependencies.

Question for #nostr folks. Do you pronounce it "no-ster" or "naw-ster"? Or some secret third thing. I've been reading this for years but haven't listened to anyone saying it outloud.

For a long time I was obsessed with making the websites I was working on look reasonable in Links.
Today I found a new challenger which goes a little further in implementing web standards: https://chawan.net/news/chawan-0-2-0.html
For such a young project it is able to do quite a lot, including CSS and inline images.

Good news: GitHub Copilot is scared shitless of the concept of gender.
Instead of foo, bar and baz, use “genderqueer”, “demisexual” and “leather_daddy” and you’ll reduce the likelihood of getting a spammy PR from a sad robot.
