@glocq@mathstodon.xyz There was research a few years ago, into the idea that psychiatric disorders could be diagnosed by eye saccade patterns. And the optic nerves are often included in the CNS. There's something really interesting going on here.
I just got a premium new electronic Device that DIDN'T require me to create an account to use it, never mind a subscription. Feels weird!
It's a Wiim smart speaker, and it has native support for Lyrion Media Server, which is so old (but still up to date) that it is from a time when developers asked "why would you make a login?"
@weatheire@mastodon.ie I heard someone talk about a possible beast from the east, anything in it?

@ThePolishDispatch sorry for butting in, but I went down this rabbit hole a while back. FireAngel from the UK ended up being my choice
Been a few days since I watched #ProjectHailMary and that uneasy feeling just keeps growing. I've a feeling the future will not be so kind to this movie as the reactions suggest.
I think it's because Ryan Gosling tried to steal every scene. In a movie where he already had every scene to himself
Also annoyed they keep going on about CGI like it's a dirty word. The movie is full of great CGI including every "puppet" scene.

Good music video too

@Andii@mas.to @oscarjiminy@aus.social This has been the ultimate point of tension in every group I've been a part of. Also a good way to find like-minded people!

@keithamus@indieweb.social I imagine it might be useful to a researcher somewhere, albeit uncontrolled

@keithamus@indieweb.social cool utility! 0.0037 on a pixel 9 pro in a sunny room. Do you know if age is a factor for color perception? Would have to think sex is, if xkcd has learned me anything

@codinghorror just a friendly heads-up Jeff... mine were like that, at those ages too... It's not necessarily guaranteed that things will stay that way

@tychotithonus@infosec.exchange this is a dig at Google right? Asking because Proton just sent out a passkey related email
Well I was very late to #Expedition33 but I'm still finding it hard to find good discussion about Maelle and Alicia's ending in The Reacher.
- Why did it take place in a womb, if there was only one ending and no new beginning?
- Why did Alicia like spending time there? (did *the event* make Alicia not want to grow up?)
- How did Alicia feel about how Aline saw her?
- How does it all connect with Renoir's intended purpose of the tower?
Second playthrough, and this is the only part I can't get

Saw Project Hail Mary last night. It's grand. Probably not worth the €100 that a night at the cinema costs these days.
They say it was a big passion project for Ryan Gosling, but that passion project must be Ryan Gosling, because if he cared about the movie he would have used an unknown actor and let Rocky be Rocky (I have listened to the Audiobook on three different occasions)

@jab01701mid that would only be enforceable as a tax, so yeah - ringfence the revenue for mental health services, win/win! (lose\lose?)
It seems bizarre, but it turns out (for me) that self-hosting a website is much simpler than trying to figure out the likes of Hetxner etc
Assuming you have an old PC that you can run Linux on, as most people that I know, do.
Install docker and portainer. Buy a domain at Cloudflare and point it to your computer. That's it!

@andrewt what T rating is that for? Most I've ever been in is 3T, but I think 5Ts are becoming common, maybe even some 7Ts somewhere?
Also, um... there's hardly any gadolinium fortified cereals out there?

@keithamus@indieweb.social I'd willingly share those details if you ever want to add the option

@tychotithonus@infosec.exchange fair enough! I haven't heard horror stories about proton yet, but I wouldn't even be surprised

This would track with me finding the blue swatches most difficult, if I understand correctly?

@ifixcoinops@retro.social great thread Dan, I too, am full of regret for badge pride. I want to live in a retirement home full of Web 1.0 war stories
