I knew it was bad, but oh boy.

(don’t worry – it may look a bit rough, but it’s actually good enrichment for them.)
"Kleider machen Leute" ist so ein wahres Sprichtwort. Auch ein nicht zu misachtender Aspekt bei Genderdysphorie / -euphorie.

@catsalad@infosec.exchange They are fine and have received lots of cuddles afterwards. 😌 https://chaos.social/@fi/116630843927093867
Waterproofness is a surprisingly useful feature in a smartphone, especially when traveling.
- Phone overheated from constant GPS & Camera use in the sun? Run it under a cold tap for a moment.
- Hands and phone grimey from touching stuff in public transit? Just wash both.
Just need to make sure to only inductively charge until the port has dried again.
I totally didn’t realize it was CSD in Munich today. Omg, so many visible queer people, even outside the march! *-*
I wanted to join the march for a bit, but with my giant heavy travel backpack in the heat, I eventually decided against it for my own health/energy.

@atpfm@mastodon.social I wanted to let you know that this is how a friend and I refer to segments like this week's pre-show.

@luna How worried are you about those new security vulnerabilities like darksword?
(I‘m in a similar situation, don‘t want to upgrade to 26.4 because I greatly prefer 18. But I‘m really unsure whether the risk is worth it, so I‘d be curious about your thoughts.)

@snazzyq Another significant difference IMO is the lack of ambient light sensor on the Neo. I guess that means no automatic screen brightness.
(Also no backlit keyboard, either)

@marcoarment@mastodon.social It’s unbelievable that Apple still posted the MLK tribute to their website a few days ago. How tf dare they?

(If you don't know what Tweedback is: it's a live feedback system for lectures/seminars, to allow students to give anonymous feedback via their phone instead of having to speak out loud. Very cool thing in principle.)

(And the new color grading & film simulation of Halide Mark III are really good. @halide@mastodon.social)
[exposed roll of film has been sitting in a drawer for over a year] Maybe I‘ll get around sending it to the lab next month. We‘ll see. There are more pressing matters at hand.
[immediately after posting it, and then every 5 minutes] WHY IS IT NOT DEVELOPED YET
People are (understandably) outraged by Blender accepting a sponsorship from Anthropic (in the highest sponsorship tier, no less). Not the first evil company they take donations from, so one might have hoped that the damage is „just“ the social effects, not direct influence on the software.
But what I think is more outrageous is that according to Anthropic, „The Blender developers have created an MCP connector, which is now officially available for Claude.“
It’s so weird how it’s half shaded like an actual 3D objective, and half shaded like flat pieces of glass forming an icon of an objective.
I really dislike this.

Oh damn, looks like I get to keep my iPad on iPadOS 18 after all.
It’s at the same time fascinating, kinda scary and comforting how the older I get, the more my handwriting starts looking like my mum‘s.
Es gibt echt viele schöne wahre Sprichwörter.
Aller Anfang ist schwer.
Steter Tropfen höhlt den Stein.
Das wird alles nicht so heiß gegessen, wie es gekocht wird.
Und die kochen auch nur mit Wasser.
