Proud to announce: tenacity pays off, I am moving up in the academic pyramid! Starting in September my next step will be as a #PhD candidate over at #Utrecht University. 🥳 I get the opportunity to work on human factors in organizational #cybersecurity, supervised by Kate Labunets and Slinger Jansen.

Looking forward to expand my network with new connections. Anyone from #UtrechtUniversity #UniversiteitUtrecht here on Mastodon? #phdlife :boost_requested:

Gun-makers tell Congress mass shootings are a ‘local’ problem not caused by ‘inanimate’ firearms


nbcnews.com/politics/politics-…

in reply to tom grzyb

Guns are inanimate in the same way that viruses are. Absent sufficient immunity, upon infection by guns society is compelled to multiply them like cells are compelled to multiply virus particles.
in reply to tom grzyb

Yes, guns beget more guns, and the contagion is delivered through the fear of guns.

Former Republicans and Democrats form new third U.S. political party


reuters.com/world/us/exclusive…

in reply to tom grzyb

theguardian.com/us-news/2022/j…

Stu Rothenberg, a veteran non-partisan political analyst, said it was easy to talk about establishing a third party but almost impossible to do so. “The two major political parties start out with huge advantages, including 50 state parties built over decades,” he said. Rothenberg pointed out that third party presidential candidates like John Anderson in 1980 and Ross Perot in 1992 and 1996 flamed out, failing to build a true third party that became a factor in national politics.


I think I'm catching a strong whiff of Putin spoor in the woods.



U.S. Senate passes bill to massively subsidize chip manufacturing

in reply to tom grzyb

There is never enough, it seems. I think Intel, et al, saw the Infrastructure Bill and immediately said to themselves: we could get something like that!


Yeah!! @MichaelTunnell@twitter.com is here at #scale19x!! I am sooo excited!!! 😂🎉🐧🐧🐧 #podcasts

in reply to Matthew "Smiffy" Smith

i don't, but probably would if we had a decent no. of LED blubs in the house. Godawful mix of led, cfl in every possible combination of shape, thread size, both bayonet & edison screw. Some of the bulbs of a given type go in one fitting but won't go in another. House lighting to be redone ... one day #aroundtuit
in reply to ajft [SEC=&8212;haha]

I am responsible for pretty much all the light fittings in this house (we built), and we still have a combination of ES and BC, and some weird European PL-S fittings (on the veranda). Lesson here is, don't buy your light fittings at auction unless you check the bulb type first!

I'll replace them all with ES at some point (I used to prefer BC, but frankly the ES ones get less bugs in them outside).



nuclear and climate

It’s easy to get the idea that “that’s a problem for those 250000 years from now, not us”, but they have it backwards. It’s gonna be a problem for everyone up until then.

That said, my biggest prio is the most imminent destructions, with a special focus on climate change, and right now, it seems to me that fossils are worse than nuclear.

idiomdrottning.org/nuclear

in reply to Sandra

I like bringing up the issue of surveillance capitalism & how wasteful of (in all fairness, green) energy it is. Not to argue that it is any worse than proof-of-work blockchain. But rather because its more immediate to most people, & is more fundamental to our current digital economy.
in reply to alcinnz

Yes! But I'm becoming a li'l bit careful since many communist economic systems and technologies don't deal with the externalities issue particularly well, either.

For example, Fediverse has some wasteful aspects, such as relay servers and other attempts to make everything mirror everything (which is another reason why The Whole Known Network and Discover need to die idiomdrottning.org/fedi-wishli… )

Also, "green electricity", I don't want to dismiss "wallet voting" (we def can't support fossils directly!) but I want some dialectics with the idea that ultimately since 80% of power on Earth is fossil, all use of power is something to do sparingly, so I agree with you on that.

This is one of my sculptures, the most complex one I've made out of clay. I'm a surrealist, this is a ceramic piece, unglazed.

I'm hoping to open a studio/public display to see how people react, actions speaking louder than words and all that.
in reply to Me

This a favorite of mine, glazed ceramic hippo. Very photogenic. Would you like to see these?

Also having just embarked on learning about html , css and building websites from scratch to serve my glitchy purposes this article came at the right time . I do actually own a copy of frontpage 2000 and had installed it and waas figuring it out but then realised it was easier and more fun just to learn the basics , not for everyone I know and this article explains some interesting stuff invisibleup.com/articles/33/
in reply to crash-stop

wow, that brings back some memories!

It is fun to work with HTML/CSS and I think you're right to learn this way, because it will give you more flexibility later.



Tonight for dinner I did Turkish Pide in the Ooni pizza oven.

So tasty!

in reply to David de Groot 𓆉

Thanks for insight. I would be using wood or charcoal. Maybe Santa will bring me one. Concentrating on moving from South Florida to Central Florida in the next several months.
in reply to Bob

the wood/charcoal only version is definitely cheaper 😀


DOJ investigation of 2020 election is looking at conduct directly related to Trump and his closest allies


cnn.com/2022/07/26/politics/ju…

in reply to tom grzyb

I love it but I remain skeptical that Trump could be convicted by a jury of 12 Americans.
in reply to tom grzyb

Get him in court and he will convict himself. I believe that.

Hello @dadegroot

I think this video will be amusing for you (but also for whoever knows how to forge hot iron on an anvil!)

invidious.tiekoetter.com/watch…

in reply to rag. Gustavino Bevilacqua

is seen another like that before, but yeah, movies aren’t good at reality. Some of that will be because of safety concerns on set, but most because it just needs to look good on film and convey a feeling rather than show how it is actually done.



sleep was secondary this weekend but man it caught up to me


Biden says Trump lacked ‘courage to act’ during Jan. 6 riot


apnews.com/article/capitol-sie…

Except it was not a riot. And Trump was instigating an insurrection. So WTF is Biden saying?

in reply to tom grzyb

I'm further speculating that these proceedings are intentionally limiting themselves to Trumo's crimes for that reason (despite the injustice there). If El Trumo is the (only) sacrificial goat, perhaps some of the others will not be aroused to suicidal violence.
in reply to tom grzyb

On the other hand, "lacking courage" is not exactly a high crime. ;-(
