Oh yeah! Today is the beginning of meeting roulette!

BC (where I am) has not changed it's time. Europe / UK has now fallen back as of yesterday. So +8 / +7 from BC.

And this coming weekend is North American time change. Where BC will be an hour ahead of PT.

My brain hurts already.

Ordered the XReal 1 Pro+ with prescription lenses and the XReal eye camera. I'm pretty excited to have a less janky mic/camera setup for my cyberdeck and the onboard spatial tracking with extra large virtual displays should be nice. We'll see if it gets here in time for my next trip. (probably not)

Christians should return to the principles of Distributism instead of hyperfixating on hating minorities while their world burns down around them.

I very recently discovered that web browsers can now do composited blur with the "backdrop-filter: blur" CSS rule. Very cool! This solves a problem I had worked around for decades (using linear gradients) on my personal website's menu items.

However, this made me discover and report a rendering bug in GNOME Web (Epiphany) and other WebKitGTK-based browsers: bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?i

Firefox (Gecko), Chromium (Blink) and Safari (WebKit) don't seem to be affected.

These are folks who will post anti-Musk posts, videos, fundraising requests on X then not have a backup plan when the account mysteriously disappears.

Literally, just have a backup plan. Have an account on Fedi to mirror all posts elsewhere.

Why is anyone only posting these types of things to Threads, X, TikTok?

Don’t worry though, they’ll hit you with a laundry list of reasons why they must continue to do so.

Then also say Fedi is dead.

It's frustrating how often abled people take up the acessible bathrooms when there's regular ones available. Folks with mobility issues literally don't have a choice.

Seems folks have appropriated the term "code rot" for some neo mystical BS. Like "the universe has code rot and is glitching" from what I can tell.

Gonna start zero indexing in meatspace to add some extra charm (incomprehensibility)

Hey I'm getting my local LLM to trawl through candidates for the upcoming election. Would folks be interested in seeing the results of its research? I'm mostly interested in candidates stances on housing/policing/public transit issues.

I'm not telling you not to do it, but I'm not not telling you not to do it.

One benefit / downside is that I felt exhausted last night and collapsed into bed without my usual pre sleep phone time that i'd use to exhaust my brain to sleep
