Remembering the time a primate keeper at the zoo heard me say I'm afraid of monkeys and she told me about how the chimps will sometimes try and sneak sticks into the indoor enclosure to sharpen the use to try and stab the keepers through the bars.
Delightfully terrifying bias confirmation.
Edge of Tomorrow sequel is currently scrapped. Maybe in 3-4 years? Cruise needs to keep his aging on ice…

Setup daily backups of my #SQLite for my #gotosocial server. Backups go to S3 at the moment but I’ll add just archiving to a local path or maybe scp to a host? I dunno. Don’t need to make things too complicated.
I put the script on #Codeberg for others to use if they want.
TODO: add cleaning up old backups.

I remain happy with the Fediverse as it is, i.e. essentially statistically insignificant. This has its benefits.
Is my boss on here? No. Are any of my work colleagues on here? No. Is my mother on here? No. Are my irl friends on here? What irl friends.
Found a sweatshirt to try out… 😂

FWIW I actually clicked the link for this ad on #Instagram and got a 504 gateway error.
Have not read either of these books in over 25 years. Maybe I should refresh my memory with a reread. #Iliad #Odyssey

So: "phytomining"!
you take land where metals (like silver) are mixed into the soil
you seed the land with "hyperaccumulators" -- plants that suck up metal as they grow and incorporate it into them
some of these plants wind up being fully 1% silver
when the crops are mature, harvest and burn them
voila
you have a bunch of useable silver

I really hope #gotosocial gets hashtag blocking/muting soon. I could really clean up my timeline and follow more stuff I care about…
Linus Torvalds calls a spade a spade
Ads in #WhatsApp might finally get people to move to #Signal?
Or are people too numb to take action against ads…?

In case anybody thought Europe was doing better. This is real bad.
ohmyz.sh (Oh my zsh) has an update of `omz shop` that opens a browser to shop for merchandise (it is nice projects are finding ways to get reimbursed for work imho). Another tidbit shared from @sdolan is the PR was done by #copilot on GitHub: https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/issues/13427 #zsh #linux
I love that Cloudflare periodically provides us with examples to convey to the youngsters what it felt like when you were in the middle of chatting to your friends online in the 1990s, and someone picked up the phone.
Just scarfed down a #Costco hotdog. Washed it down with Zero Sugar Coke. Glad the plague of Pepsi is over.
Looking forward to future ram glut from overproduction. We’ll all be able to have 1-2TB of ram on our desktops. Maybe even ECC will be in style again. 😎
