I would like to suggest you watch the part of this Commodore 64 demo from 5:06 on

@mcc very impressive all round. Why that bit?

@mcc the nested transparent ones were neat. I enjoy reading about how these are done

Hoping Ncuti Gatwa can display more than his usual two expressions tonight. The serious Masters Of The Air one and the open mouthed blank Doctor Who one. Steven Moffat should give him something better to get his teeth into than Snot Babies and Doctor Glee.

Good morning my mastodonian friends, it's Saturday!

Right, taking the youngest swimming in an hour, then I plan on using the rest of the day to build my Lego ECTO1.

No Letterboxd Friday from me as the recent activity includes film entries you've tinkered with. I've spent the last week getting my profile up to date with all my reviews.

Also, my blog received new reviews of Titan A.E., Rebel Moon: The Scargiver and Beowulf & Grendel. Perhaps something to accompany your morning coffee. 😊

@UKFilmNerd Lego is always the right choice

Apple Pencil Pro integration goodness.

  1. The shadow of the pencil on the screen isn’t an optical phenomenon; it’s digitally generated!

  2. You can expand the fan-shaped tool palette with a finger or the pencil.

I’m so effing tired

What states and the EU ought to do - facilitate cross border travel in a green way - they’re abjectly failing to do (see today’s SNCF (state owned railway) saga)

What they’re instead doing is racist passenger profiling and eroding (Bundespolizei controlling anyone with dark skin at Offenburg)

@jon I'm sure they have "specific intelligence" right?

There was quite a heated debate online tonight about why the Eurovision Song Contest didn't look quite right. And the answer is complex, it's not actually technical reason, it's down to how our brains interpret the world! So I wrote a post about it:

Watching Linux distros (and yes, it is usually Debian packagers who act the most sanctimonious) shoot themselves in the face and then insult upstream AND the users of a popular package under the delusion that only the distro's self-declared experts are capable of making decisions is always a good reminder as to why you will never be able to waterboard me into using Linux as my primary desktop. Very sorry this is happening Team KeePassXC. https://fosstodon.org/@keepassxc/112417353193348720

Despite the very clever people working at Google & Fitbit, my Pixel Watch still marks me mowing the lawn as "Biking" every time.
I do get that the arm position will be pretty much identical but maybe they ought to consider metadata - how many people are cycling for an hour whilst in wifi range and within ~60 metres of their home location whilst moving at walking pace? 🤣

I have a website that loads a random background image related to cities via the Unsplash API:

background-image: url(https://source.unsplash.com/random?city);

Today, this striking image appeared: the Judge Harry Pregerson Interchange (I-105 × I-110), a five-level interchange (the most complex in Los Angeles). Photo by David Ortega.

also in general if your advice to the average server owner is “audit every piece of every piece of code you’ll ever run” then it seems very possible you’ve lost your sense of scale and perspective

My wife told me to take the spider out instead of killing him.

Went out. Had a few drinks. Nice guy. He's a web designer.
