I've reached peak semantic satiation on the holder/holding dichotomy/state machine.
Man who won’t give his employees piss breaks claims many piss breaks on the horizon
Everything can be modular synthesis if you try hard enough
The lack of anyone in the government - or indeed any political party - standing up to campaign on behalf of our absolutely world-leading arts and culture sectors is just truly stupefying. These are industries where the UK actually _is_ a superpower, and yet we have silence...
The C# type-system exists solely to cause me pain.

You Should Consider Making a Burger EX on Steam
HOW HIGH WILL YOU STACK IT? Drop ingredients as high as you can, get powerups, unlock new burgers, that's really all there is to it.

I’d missed that there’s a new The Burning Hell album out, with Carsie Blanton. The bar has always been high, but “Along with Tilda Swinton and some inmates from San Quentin” might be their best Leonine rhyme yet. theburninghell.bandcamp.com/track/hoist-...
Hoist the Guillotine, by Carsie Blanton & The Burning Hell
from the album Everything is Great!

So it’s a common mistake to think you should attack the ones in black first, the one in white hits harder and can take out 1/3 of your HP bar if you’re not careful. Get white guy first, then take out the goons in black, and hope beige shorts guy doesn’t spawn.
General Boles@generalboles.bsky.social · last mo.I worry for this country when our fash militias can't even enforce a dress code
Let them go under the water. Fewer fash to deal with.
Emma Yeomans@yeomans.bsky.social · last mo.Extreme right-wing protesters are in a stand-off with the RNLI in Portsmouth. The group, led by Danny Tommo, are waist-deep in the sea and threatening to go "under the water" if police try to arrest them. Six lifeboats monitoring. Volunteer rescuers giving up their evening for this.
picking a side in a face off between street fash and the RNLI is not fucking Sophie's Choice, it's strawberry ice cream or a bucket of shit. and the Home Office go for the bucket every time.

I used to get the same Northern Rail morning commute train as Burnham from Newton-le-Willows to Manchester and I can guarantee that he’s furious about northern train networks
Back on track: can Burnham fix the north’s woeful rail services?
From a new high-speed line to better intercity links, the PM has a chance to tackle problems he criticised as Manchester mayor

Call me old-fashioned but I think emergency alerts should alert people to stuff they didn’t already know but urgently need to, rather than for the sender to look busy.
Really great that we all got to jump at once, as a nation, because the government line on the climate crisis was heavily criticised over the last few days.
I want to taste the forbidden gummy bear

A hole through its torso suggests it was worn or suspended from a cord, perhaps as a hunting amulet. 📷 National Museum in Szczecin #Archaeology
Stalin would have been a perfectly acceptable forum member of the 2000s internet whereas Lenin would have been the most annoying poster possible.
Imposing an equilibrium model from theory onto the price of deodorant that you’re buying on an app from Target fucking sucks and makes the world worse.
The main reasons you dont know hardly any AAA craft-level game makers names is because the machines that make money from those people don’t want to give any visionaries on the team camera time in case they want to fire them to save money. And the smaller game makers hate doing press
Don’t let them be known for being good at designing, lighting, programming, writing in public. You might want to remove them next quarter and people will then associate you with not valuing the quality you just presented as good
Don't know who needs to hear this, @scancomputers.bsky.social have the OP-XY up for about 20% off list price. Guess I'm buying another sequencer...
Just pulled a “help, I’m trapped in the door” bit on my kid (5) via the Ring as he left for school. Earned my Dad points for the day.
Just when I need it (I've discovered the utility of baked curvature and AO maps for material detailing), Houdini 22 is getting COP support in Houdini Engine for Unreal!
