i’ve getting lazy recently. especially with snacks. if something is otherwise vegan, i can turn a blind eye on the palm oil. this baby cuscus was the cutest slap on my face.

I love love love love (in a sarcastic, dark humour sort of way) the title of the article Dr. Laura Revell, Dr. @astrokiwi.bsky.social and I wrote last week theconversation.com/a-new-spac….

But one thing got cut in the final edit: simulations of the night sky with 1 million satellites. I just tried to pitch a separate article on that, I'll see if that gets picked up this coming week or not.

in reply to Prof. Sam Lawler

The dots in each grey circle are sunlit satellites, and the colour tells you how bright they are. Anything pink, orange, or yellow is naked-eye visible.

Below each circle is "Nvis" which tells you the number of satellites bright enough to be visible with the naked eye, and "Ntot" which is the total number of sunlit satellites above the horizon.

There are only ~4,500 stars that are naked eye visible.

A million sats this big would be more visible satellites than stars.

in reply to Prof. Sam Lawler

Of course, there's no way in hell we'll ever get to 1 million satellites in orbit. We'll be in Kessler Syndrome long before that (many experts say we're already in Kessler Syndrome now, and the timescale between collisions will continue to get shorter).

I"ll also note we're making huge assumptions here on size and orbits, because SpaceX hasn't actually said what they're going to do. And that's fine with the FCC, they're going to approve it anyway. Fuckers.

Giving mine (in me and mine) an ear and reassurance while they lose their stuff over the awful stuff they're trying to help with and work to change is one of the things I try to do. Thank you for the help.

Why are soap bars that don´t have palm oil so much more expensive?

Anyway I think avoiding palm oil in food makes a lot more difference. You don´t use that much soap daily.

First and foremost, Linux runs better on my hardware than Windows did. I like all the selections available for desktops and window managers. Running it at home is a LOT easier now than it was when I first looked at Linux in 2008-2010. With all the different distros available, I can find one that runs on the specific system where I want to install it.


sometimes you write a really good optimisation, and sometimes you add a cache only to see the program spend two thirds of its runtime time on cache lookups

I've spent the morning fawning over the paintings of Emily Shanks and Winslow Homer, the latter, whose collection mostly revolves around "little boats in way too much weather", has also created this one, which I think is my favourite work of his.

omg, it only took me a month and a half with 50 or so failures wipes restores wipes and finally a fresh install after losing 3 database backups and imports, lost a few days of posts over all, but I finally got my #friendica instance upgraded to Friendica 'Blutwurz' 2026.04-dev - 1589 with php 8.5.2, and so far it appears to actually be working this time, i love friendica, I just wish the @Friendica Admins @Friendica Developers @Friendica Support had made it a bit more flexible every little change breaks everything, and it becomes a nearly never ending chase to customize and keep current, anyways for now I think my quite little instance is upgraded and running;
