Οkay so apparently you do NOT turn into Mumm-Ra incarnate the moment you turn 30. Disappointed, but hopeful to transform when I complete the next decade of life.
Thankfully my knees are still good

On a very cute note, my coolest friends are all 30+ now. I'm embracing this new decade with the absolute joy of a toddler running towards a family member they adore
My 30s are definitely fast approaching. I got very excited over a self-standing electrical vacuum cleaner. With LED lights!
macOS Tahoe reminds me of those mac look-alike Linux gtk themes
There is no winner in light mode vs dark mode because they each serve a different purpose and different accessibility needs
The bundled Red theme for VSCode is basically the antichrist

@Jeremiah I think I understand what youre trying to say, but I don't see how speaking the local language is an *arbitrary* expectation when you emigrate to a different country, especially when you've lived there for years.
It's one thing if you can't afford to learn it or if there aren't resources, and it's another thing entirely to say it's not useful to you in particular as a rationale.
This might land poorly if a Svenskar friend hears it like so: it could essentially sound like "your language is not very useful to me when I live in your country and I have no interest in engaging with your culture")
Which is entirely your prerogative!
Edit: corrected some wording
Edit 2: I'm not an immigrant myself so feel free to correct me if I'm biased or way off-base!
Does anyone have any chicken soup recipes that they personally tried and love? Boiled chicken and regular plain old chicken soup both taste like wet death to me, unfortunately 🥲
Where would you rather host (or actually host) CTF and/or Let's Defend write-ups?
I keep getting the easiest part wrong in one of the Let's Defend rooms 🤦♂️

@elena @emilymbender @cwebber @tante GenAI should stay away from art & other human expression. It erodes so much.

@tante@tldr.nettime.org I spy with my little eye a connection between this sentiment of "AI democratizing things" and UBI not being implemented as policy 👁
Spot-on 👏
