man your show is one of the best out there. I love the format. You get so many different and interesting people on there. This episode in particular was crazy good. Never perceived Jay as this in-depth guy. I always thought he makes only superficial distro-first-look videos. Too bad he doesn't have a mastodon account, or does he?


Two lifeforms merge in once-in-a-billion-years #evolutionary event
Scientists have caught a once-in-a-billion-years evolutionary event in progress, as two lifeforms have merged into one organism that boasts abilities its peers would envy. Last time this happened, Earth got plants. The #algae Braarudosphaera bigelowii has been found to have absorbed a #cyanobacteria called UCYN-A, which may be a huge step forward for #evolution.

Cybertruck Turns Into Large Metal Brick After Going Through Car Wash


It's not exactly confidence-inducing to see a car that's meant to serve as a rugged off-the-grid base โ€” and even a way to get around Mars, according to Tesla CEO Elon Musk โ€” turn into a giant "Tesla Paperweight," as captain.ad quipped, after a routine hosing off.

The other day I tried to read an article (on mobile) somewhere and after of it, there was a screen filling ad with a rotatable 3d model of a watch. So when I tried to scroll past it, the ad basically intercepted my swipe and started to rotate the watch, which made it literally impossible to scroll past the ad. Wtf.

In the end I scrolled up a bit and basically flung the screen past it. What a user experience

What does that mean, "Canon AE-1 Program"? I have an AE-1 and an A-1, is yours not a real camera, but rather, a program instead?

This would really be nice in Tri-X, and is really nice on the Ilford HP5 as well.

You still need to achieve max-white, not just max-black. You can do it with what you have, just go back into the developer room and get it right this time - then I want a copy ;)

in reply to Brodie Robertson

#CEF might also be the cause why spotify wayland just doesn't work. Sadly there is not much manpower put behind it, to a point where the community tracks down random things in chromium that doesn't (or shouldn't) even apply to CEF. Honestly wish Spotify would just go for electron at this point.

About the thing about bearing persecution for justice's sake, I think the idea is to stand up for someone being mistreated even if you get mistreated for doing so.

I have personally encountered executives from Rio Tinto. These are not people of integrity. They have their agenda and will say and do what it takes to achieve it, regardless of the damage to the truth, to people, and to the environment. They want to dig everything up, quick, and secure it for themselves. This is regardless of whether it makes them a profit now, because later people may be desperate to pay them anything.
