Bienvenue ! Vous vous rappelez les blogs ? A une époque, ce site en était un. Maintenant, c’est surtout une archive de mes multiples comptes Twitter.

This past month I’ve relied so much on Spotify’s Discover Weekly and Daily Mixes that I’m extremely nervous about playing anything that might drive those playlists away from bassy electronica.

When your main job is to tap me on the wrist when there is something I want to know about, you really should not be adding opportunities to interrupt me with things that can very much wait.

I like the idea of the Apple Watch auto-recording my walks, but it would be much less annoying if it just popped up a prompt on the phone’s lock screen instead of bugging me when it starts, and when it ends, and after the first kilometer (?!).

Facebook is a right-wing propaganda machine. Now that millennials hardly ever use it and zoomers don’t even have accounts, it’s fully committed to the lucrative business model of poisoning brains. We’ve already seen it abet genocide in South Asia. [metro.co.uk]

Every time I try to improve my Rift’s tracking it somehow ends up getting worse, so it’s time I stop trying. The minute I get my next payment I’m ordering an Index.

I think I chose the worst possible resin color for taking pictures, but I intend to paint them anyway. Or ridicule myself trying, at least.

When I look at the time I feel like I’ve got a fucking giant billboard on my wrist.

Also I can’t get my MacBook Pro to detect the watch and display the “Unlock with Apple Watch” setting, please tell me I don’t need to upgrade to Catalina so it’ll see watchOS 5.

Everyone’s talking about impeachment and Clinton & Johnson as the only presidents ever impeached. But most people don’t know WHY Johnson was impeached.

So let me tell you the story about how not impeaching a racist president is a BIG reason why white supremacy lingers in America

Two weeks is the time it took me to accept that I’ll never open again the liter of resin that was bundled with the printer, and try to order a replacement that doesn’t stink.

# 2019/12/12 - 16:12 — publié d'abord sur @ff00aa

Rationally I didn’t mind that my new 3D printer’s resin stank to high heaven — the results were worth it.

Subconsciously I was so repelled by the smell (even though I didn’t think it was that bad) that I haven’t been able to bring myself to use it again for the past two weeks.

The more I read about quantum mechanics, the more convinced I become that our universe is a computer simulation.

The really weird stuff like quantum superposition and entanglement only make intuitive sense if you think of them as rendering artifacts of compute optimizations.

Tried getting back into Forza Horizon 4 if only to get the Advent daily cars, but driving on flat-screen with a pad (wheel handling sucks) is sooo boring.

On the other hand Project Cars 2 has perfect VR and FFB but the game itself is sooo boring.

Why was Driveclub VR so perfect.

Horrified to realize that if I hadn’t gone for a dual-filament printer (only to remove the dual-filament head later because it was shit), I could have bought a nice pre-assembled auto-leveling delta printer for the same price.

J’ai la nette impression que The Child était en images de synthèse au départ et qu’ils n’ont arrêté qu’après la remarque de Werner Herzog, et je vote qu’ils ont eu tort, il était beaucoup mieux dans les premiers épisodes.
