Je suis tombé sur un podcast de fiction à trois narrateurs qui se renvoient la balle et s’interrompent mutuellement, il y aurait mille raisons qu’ils se foirent mais ça marche complètement, je suis comme ça 😵 (et vert de jalousie)

Great idea: The Science Museum (UK) used its digitized collection, API, and log of web pages with zero views to create “Never Been Seen”—a site that makes you the very first person to see an object. Nice model for serendipity. (via @sebchan’s newsletter) [thesciencemuseum.github.io]

You’re thinking “that’s cute, but I’m sure the truth is less interesting and horrific.” You need to read the thread, and the replies, and see the pictures. [twitter.com]

A Native American woman I know said that she and her friends have jokingly named this guy “Dances with Karens” and I find that pretty darn funny. 😆 (No offense to the decent Karens in the world, of course.)

Judging from older articles about the app, looks like it originally focused on splitting 3D models for a much more reasonable price, then added functionality and raised license costs, which is an interesting way of destroying the app’s value proposition for potential new buyers.

Ah, I tweeted that just before I reached the right result in my search

I don’t necessarily want to be a freeloader, though, but that license is a bit expensive when I’m only interested in that specific functionality.

How is it that all resin-printing software knows how to hollow out a model and add holes to the shell, but there doesn’t seem to be any app that can automatically split a big model into parts with aligning pins and holes?

Hier soir j’ai décidé d’un coup de mettre un tic-toc de pendule en boucle sur mon ordinateur et je peux vous dire que j’ai rarement été aussi bien inspiré. Il manque juste le feu de cheminée.

Je suis à ma fenêtre depuis dix minutes à me demander si regarder la neige est intrinsèquement apaisant ou si c’est juste culturel et/ou parce que c’est rare.

“L’identité de genre n’est pas égale à l’expression de genre.

Être non-binaire ne signifie pas automatiquement être androgyne.

Cela ne signifie pas non plus désirer l’effacement de tte notion de genre, comme le suggère Zone Interdite : Ni fille ni garçon”

Shit, my main excuse for abandoning my early work on a VR music visualizer was “Meh, everyone’s gotten used to The Wave anyway,” and now The Wave shuts down its VR version 🤦🏻‍♂️

Mostly Harmless (Douglas Adams) — 6/10

I should not be surprised that Martin Freeman is a really good audiobook narrator, and wish I’d listened to the whole series voiced by him. (I don’t think Stephen Fry does the first book justice, and I listened to a few voiced by the author, which are just fine.)

I’m so fucking tired of teenagers written as irrational little idiots, though. Arthur Dent’s preternatural stupidity had already gotten annoying enough. And I find it rather rude for a writer to work his existential and sentimental depression into the last volume of a comedic series.

# 2021/01/15 - 14:48

So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish (Douglas Adams) — 5/10

“Does Arthur Dent fuck?” is a really odd choice of theme for a book in this series.

All this talk of sea shanties is making me want to go back to Sea of Thieves (more than the Twitch drop campaigns ever did). Even though last time I checked they added a whole lot of irrelevant crap to the shanty menu.

It had been so long since I last updated the emoji in Uniconsole that I forgot what a humongous pain in the ass it is and how much it makes me want to become a right-wing pundit. I woke up with productive energy for the first time all week and this is what I’m spending it on 😫

Deep-diving into an image search for DIY cyberdecks like I don’t already have a zillion projects I’m not doing any progress on. (Not really a good time for me buying the hardware components anyway.)

J’ai pris la bouteille de sirop d’érable, dévissé le bouchon verseur pour enlever l’opercule, jeté l’opercule et versé le sirop dans mon ice tea en me disant, tiens, c’est difficile à doser comme ça, c’est curieux qu’ils n’aient pas pris la peine de mettre un bouchon verseur.

It’s once again worth remembering that Twitter is aware of a bunch of Nazi accounts that they’re required by law to mute in Germany, but which they let keep posting to everyone else.

Stop comparing Trump’s Twitter getting shut down to bakeries denying service to gays.

Better comparison: Bar throwing a drunk patron out at the end of the night after they tried instigating a fight.

One is discrimination, one is violation of terms of service.

Apple thought they had a design-oriented CEO and tried to replace him by putting Jony Ive on a pedestal. They never realized that, more than anything, Steve Jobs was Apple’s QA advocate, and no one replaced him in that seat.
