that’s great news. When first reading about this I was hoping they would do that.


When I was a freelance BBC presenter I was told I should not criticise the Royal Society when I wrote in support of Professor Dorothy Bishop’s resignation. I’m not now , so I can say that I think the society’s position on Elon Musk is troubling and wrong. Also, I’m not sure how many other fellows are there primarily because they are businessmen rather than scientists. #elonmusk #science #space #physics

Just saw this on a post on LinkedIn

It is a URL shortener that makes your links as suspicious as possible. Simply amazing

For example:

google.com/

got turned into:

Gosh it is nice to hear some real gospel sometimes. Thanks @jamestalarico.bsky.social nytimes.com/2026/01/13/opinion…



most english prefixes have a single, unchanging meaning (more or less, don't @ me about "inflammable"). anti-blah is always in opposition to blah. pre-blah is always before blah.

the "girl" suffix is an outlier. the "girl" in "girlboss" (assertive, independent) has little in common with the "girl" in "girldinner" (hasty, improper), which has little in common with the girl in "girlfriend" (partner who is a woman). the "girl" prefix is exceedingly useful for creating new distinguished categories, but unlike other prefixes, it has no fixed meaning. i therefore propose we use the "girl" prefix to distinguish words with competing definitions:

  • a "roguelike" is no longer "a game like rogue". to refer to these "traditional" or "old school" roguelikes, we can use the term "girlroguelike".
  • the kudzu-like spread of US english has corrupted "truck" to mean "ute caricature". what the brits call a "lorry", the rest of us should call a "girltruck".
  • one of computer chips, poker chips, potato chips (hot), potato chips (cold), or golf chips will become "girlchips".

Believe me, it's my pleasure. It's such a blast talking to you guys about the industry and gaming. If I had an editor I'd do it weekly!

Hell, I'd probably do it weekly even if we never hit record 😀

I'm only slightly sad they got defederated for "impersonation". I wanted to retoot such great hits as "A new bug in the OpenJDK JRE runtime breaks all controller support aside from the Xbox Duke controller" and "the proton already come with egg roll".

how was the performance on your end? For me, it was not very playable with around 10 FPS. But I think that's my software combination that caused that. I run Wayland (Hyprland) + NVIDIA drivers.

Linux Mint "just works" in the way that Windows does and that's basically good enough. They're getting privacy and control back, they shouldn't wait until they're perfect to try their first time.

It's good that he is growing as a person, hopefully more devs will change their opinion about ai also.

‘It’s embarrassing’: riders say time is up for fossil fuel sponsorship of heat-affected Tour Down Under


This is deeply embarrassing.

When Andrew and I lived in Hahndorf, South Australia, we enjoyed taking a folding chair out to our Main Street in order to watch the bicyclists pass us for this very race. What I loved was how people would wait for the very last person to pass our leg, then we would all scream and cheer for them. YAY! Keep at it! You can do it! YOU ARE AWESOME!

I think the last person received more cheers than anyone!

State of Minnesota, Minneapolis and Saint Paul sue to halt ICE surge into Minnesota

"We, along with the State of Minnesota, and the City of Saint Paul, jointly filed a lawsuit to stop the federal government’s unlawful, unconstitutional, and dangerous federal immigration actions in our state.

"We are suing the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, ICE, Customs and Border Protection, and senior federal officials responsible for directing the immigration enforcement surge in the metro area."

in reply to Bruce MacDonald

"The people of Minnesota are entitled to basic safety and dignity in their communities. They have the right to move about their daily lives confident that their constitutional rights and civil liberties will remain intact and will not be infringed. They have the right to go to work, take their children to school, and move through public and private spaces free from fear of violence against themselves or their loved ones by their federal government. They are entitled to access city services and use city facilities without being harassed by federal agents in parking lots. They expect that law enforcement, whether federal, state, or local, will follow the law, avoid creating dangerous and chaotic circumstances, and conduct itself in a manner that distinguishes officers from masked criminals. Indeed, being free from unlawful seizures, excessive force and retaliation are not a list of aspirations Minnesotans deserve; these are rights enshrined within state and federal laws."
