Welcome to the first Saturday of September. 😉 As almost always, it is time for the next development report from my #opensource project. Yup, exactly one was changed this week, a roguelike game written in #Nim and #Ada programming languages. More information is available here: laeran.pl.eu.org/blog/devblog/…

And happy new weekend, everyone. Time for some sleep. 🙂

Family statement on killing of Aysenur Ezgi Eygi by Israeli military
1/2
Today our family and our community are in shock and grief, as we wrestle with the reality that our beloved Aysenur Ezgi Eygi is gone.

Like the olive tree she lay beneath where she took her last breaths, Aysenur was strong, beautiful and nourishing.

Her presence in our lives was taken needlessly, unlawfully and violently by the Israeli military.

#Aysenur was a loving daughter, sister, partner and aunt. She was gentle, brave, silly, supportive and a ray of sunshine. She wore her heart on her sleeves.

She felt a deep responsibility to serve others and lived a life of caring for those in need with action.

A US citizen, Aysenur was peacefully standing for justice when she was killed by a bullet that video shows came from an Israeli military shooter. [sniper]

If privatization of NASA has left you stranded in space due to the actions of two poorly run companies, you may entitled to this cartoon. brianmcfadden.org/2024/08/30/s…


I guess the only real thought I have on Brianna Wu coming out specifically to go full truscum is:

It's kinda wild to me that she chose the completely discredited "social contagion" idea as what'd get her to become the political ally of the very people who spent a decade sending her death threats...

New research shows how these creatures reflect ecosystem health across different land uses. Urbanization leads to less diversity, while natural areas support more specialized species.

Me: This is so silly that I have to "log in" and enter a password before NVIdia will let me install a driver

NVidia: Whoop— sorry, we're gonna need to do some 2FA to make sure someone isn't pretending to be you and upgrading the drivers on your computer!!!

I wonder if it's an illegal collection of email addresses under European GDPR


I never participated in #bandcampfriday, probably because all my #music is on there for #free or #paywhatitsworth. 🫣 amadeuspaulussen.bandcamp.com/
Nevertheless, if you are on the wave and looking for interesting (new) electronic music, I would be happy if you find something you like in my catalog. ☺️


Today I made a #tracklist for my 3rd #album. 🥰 A long way to go but wow, I am looking forward to that process! 🤓 #musicproduction #electronicmusic #linuxaudio

Looks like we are about to see Crysis running "almost natively" on a rpi 5!
