The angle on her face is honestly my favorite part of this one, especially the tiny hair details 😅 I also love the way their tails are so playful and the way she's looking at him but he's oblivious 🥹 they are precious!
The shading adds so much depth to that adorable dress! I love how this one is turning out 😄
I kind of unironically love this? It's got the same charm as the old "Yo" app (you could "yo" your friends and they could "yo" you back and eventually they added "yo but with location" and that was the whole entire app 🟪)

gqrx's settings menu showing a list of attached SDRs. Two of which are "RTL-SDR" devices (rtl=0, rtl=1) with obviously bogus product strings, which talk to my rust radio code instead.
Due to life decisions, I use my SDRs over the network with my own protocol.
Existing programs don't support it, so it was high time to do what any normal person would do -- convincingly implement librtlsdr .so off my rust sdr codebase (sparky) and make it work. Obviously

One of them is an active and obviously hopeless and eyes closed "but I'll be one of the good ones!" energy
The other is recognizing that piracy is mostly anarchy and extremely individual, so he really can be whatever kind of pirate he chooses to be and make an actual difference in the world
Wild, this is also how I found out 😂
Rather listen than read? Great news, we got Cassandra Campbell to read the audiobook version of CRISIS ENGINEERING.

(Righteous) Äutistic Rage
(Ok, ok, I really just wanted an excuse to do the ä thing that afflicts you so persistently, but it fits so I'm sticking with it; maybe even a killer band name)
Probability machine says you've clearly gotten on just fine without them; why start now?
It makes me chuckle that the container stacks by themselves look like server racks
This is an incredible work of art - I love it so much (although my browser does not, at certain points in the game 😂)
An LGBTQ+ pride flag formatted in the layout of the SMPTE "color bars" test pattern used for broadcast television. The first set of columns use the colors of the gay pride flag, with the addition of the original SMPTE color on the final column. The second set of columns contains two pride flags - the pansexual flag horizontally, and the asexual flag flipped and horizontal. The final set of columns contains the three colors of the transgender flag and the two POC-inclusive colors, followed by the original bar gradient from the SMPTE ECR-1-1978 pattern.
since it's the last day of pride month I figured I'd at least make one thing for it...
i now unveil to you my greatest invention:
color bars pride flag
For the people "close" to me, it's mostly (willful) ignorance, perhaps fueled by a touch of nostalgia ("I watched this with my family")
Personally, I get a more interesting touch of that nostalgia hit from Yuri On Ice, but I'm probably just a hopeless weeb
I've posed my slides and linked to the video recording from my talk "Paging All Radio Curious Hackers!" at @districtcon.bsky.social Year 1 just now at k3xec.com/paging-all-r...
All in all, the session was great - It was truly humbling to see so many folks interested in hearing me talk about radios.
I must confess that I underestimated "comically gigantic" but boy howdy they sure did deliver
This is really pretty! I love all the highlighting accents 💙
This is such a cute comic about different kinds of art and the ways they can connect us and help us see beauty in the world 🫶💖

inside of you are two wolves but one wolf is very sad and one wolf is very tired
Boromir from THE LORD OF THE RINGS, holding The One Ring. He thought he could use it for good, but everything done with the ring turns to evil. He was one of the mightiest warriors of middle earth, and he could not resist its powers. Others even mightier fell to the ring. Do you think you are stronger than them? The One Ring is generative AI.
Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is.
GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart.
But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.
I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.
The subtlety of the variety in this piece is a really cute touch that tells a whole story by itself 🥹
They can set their own "overriding" labels, sure, but that's kind of a big ask (and if their base image sets them as labels, they *have* to because that code above will overwrite any annotations with same-key labels, which is probably backwards 🙈).
If I'm reading it correctly, tangled.org/evan.jarrett... is where you're "pulling up" labels into annotations; is that accurate? The biggest issue I still see here is that labels are inherited, so any (potentially even base) image setting one of these labels will then "bleed" into all images FROM 😬
Labels have *really* horrid inheritance behavior which will be even worse for this specific use case -- I'd suggest swapping to OCI annotations on the manifest or index instead. 😅
(Both with and without my "OCI maintainer" hat on 👒)
just because I have the space, a demonstration of all the example test cases 😄
