That’s the most smug looking creature I’ve ever seen!

Pretty dystopic that you post this quote, because it is doctored to include catholics. Niemöller’s wife explicitly stated that he never included them in his poem. Source: https://martin-niemoeller-stiftung.de/martin-niemoeller/was-sagte-niemoeller-wirklich

Martin Niemöllers zweite Frau (seit 1971), Sibylle von Sell  schreibt dazu am 23.4.2000 in h-holocaust https://www.h-net.org/~holoweb/ :.“ The trouble with Martin Niemoeller’s „famous quotation“ is that he never wrote it down – which enabled  so many hitchhikers  over the years to „put themselves on the waggon“. In his  „Confession of Guilt“  (as he called it himself: Schuldbekenntnis in German) the Communists came first, then the Trade Unionists and then the Socialists and then the Jews. NO ONE ELSE.”

What happened?

So they’re fighting the war on climate change… on the side of climate change?

It’s for smoother scrolling. Worth it, imho, if you use your phone a lot. Much easier on the eyes.

The Unitree G1 is priced at $21,600.00, while the Unitree H1 costs $94,905.00. According to TheRobotShop, both models are on-demand items and are not typically held in stock.

More of a toy for people that use the term “fuck-it-money” unironically.

To capture the “unmistakable essence of CRT” that the N64 was designed for, Analogue says it’s using a “bespoke, purpose-built 4K upscaler” that it says goes beyond existing shaders designed for 2D games. Virtual scan lines and shadow masks on the Analogue 3D help capture “the soft glow of phosphor” and “vibrant color [intersection]” inherent to CRTs, Analogue writes, creating “virtually indistinguishable recreations of CRT displays [that] capture the warmth, depth, and texture in every frame.”

That’s probably the selling point. A good 4k upscaler with crt emulation can be pretty expensive in itself.

Yeah, that’s the one I was thinking about. I followed him on Twitter when it still existed, but haven’t seen anything of him since I left.

but also fuck Ben Garrisons 8,500 labels on his political cartoons

Wat. It’s Ben Garrison. That’s his thing. He makes fun of excessively labeled political cartoons by doing it over-the-top. He also has a sad Statue of Liberty in every comic.

Okay, I was completely lost.

That’s still incredibly cheap compared to european gas prices. Here in Germany it’s (converted to Freedom Units) around US$8/Gallon.

The german language has two words for “owl”: “Eule” and “Kauz”. I’m a native speaker, but I had to look up what the difference is (Wikipedia/Deepl):

“Eule” means “owl”.

“Kauz” also means owl, but specifically the small, fat and grumpy looking kind:

Various bird genera and species from the family of true owls (Strigidae) are referred to as [Kauz]. The differentiation between the terms “Eule” and “Kauz” is a peculiarity of the German language and has no equivalent in terms of zoological systematics. [Eule] are generally rather elongated, slender bird species, whereas [Kauz] have a stocky, large-headed shape

[Eule] are considered thoughtful and wise, whereas [Kauz] are considered clumsy, eccentric and reclusive.

That’s literally it, it has nothing to do with biology. So the correct translation would be “grumpy-looking goshawk owl”. 😉

It’s called displacement aggression The sportsball fan identifies with his team to the point that it feels like he lost the game himself. Since he can’t express his frustration and subsequent aggression towards the opposing team (since he is in front of his TV several 100km away), he expresses it towards the next best thing that is weaker and accessible, e.g. furniture, walls, wife and kids…

One point I want to add: Throughout most of human history, it was economically beneficial to have lots of children. They were your retirement plan (and cheap labor).

In most developed countries, this is no longer the case. People who want children get one or two, just to scratch the itch, but that’s not enough to sustain the population (without migration).

Have you adjusted the speed settings according to what the manufacturer says? LW-PLA can only be printed at a very low speed or else it clogs. It also needs constant speed. For example for colorfabb LW-PLA, I had to set all speeds to 40mm/s.

I’ve got the first one, too, and I got exempt from the subscription fee. I thought that was the case for all first gen owners?

This one is tempting. Not only color, but also one of the few eink devices with >10" screen. Also, Remarkable doesn’t put the screen behind a thick glass like Boox does, so there is no pen parallax.

I’ve never looked into the subscription thing Remarkable does. Afaik it’s only for the cloud storage - is it mandatory now?

Reminds me of the TI-92. I also love the fact that it has eInk. The perfect replacement for the old reflective LCDs!

Is this owl using eyeliner?! ; )
