Ground-based image of Arp 16, also known as M66.

M66 is a member of the Leo Triplet. NGC 3628, the galaxy in the upper left, likely had an encounter with M66 a few hundred million years ago, creating a dramatic tail-like plume.
Gravitational interactions between the three galaxies may also be responsible for M66โ€™s distorted shape and prominent spiral arms.

Iโ€™m starting to think the greediest man in the world doesnโ€™t have my best interest at heart.


Loops.video finally has enough data to provide a good FYP experience!

I can't wait to roll out this new feature, the first fediverse platform with a privacy friendly algorithm built-in.

More details soon.

about this algorithm...
Are you also planning to build something like that into Pixelfed or is this loops only?


This is sick. 'We voted for Hitler but can we have Duce now?' This shows how bady informed Trump voters are about Trump.
And whose fault is that (Mr. Murdoch)?
Voters Want MAGA Lite From Trump, WSJ Poll Finds
wsj.com/politics/policy/donaldโ€ฆ
in reply to Jeff Jarvis

An example of just how misleading polling is. WSJ says 70 percent want immigrants without criminal records protected but NYT says most want Mass deportation. Polling preempts intelligent public discourse. nytimes.com/2025/01/18/us/poliโ€ฆ
in reply to Jeff Jarvis

So what is the difference there? It's not as if you got any choice til the next midterms.
It's not as if Trump has to keep any of his promises or has to convince anyone that what he does is right.
If you want Polls look at the exit polls, or when people are about to Vote.
These results are inconsistent but they also do not matter right now.
in reply to Jeff Jarvis

Nobody asked,
"What is the maximum percentage increase in your grocery bill that you are willing to bear as a consequence of deporting immigrants?"
?

No poll question like that?

in reply to Jeff Jarvis

Mayby we should hope the military will take action to protect what there oath orders. To protect the American people and state. Not autocrats, olichars and other corrupt people and politicians. #usa #trump


Le journaliste israรฉlien Lior Kordner a dรฉclarรฉ dans un podcast pour le journal Haaretz que Trump avait lรขchรฉ Israรซl

#Israรซl #CessezLeFeu #Trump

Trump est intervenu avec force pour mettre fin ร  la guerre, et tous les partisans de la droite [israรฉlienne] vivaient dans un monde de rรชve autour de son retour.
Ils disaient qu'aussitรดt que Trump reviendrait, toute la population de Gaza serait dรฉplacรฉe, que le Hamas s'agenouillerait et que nous dรฉchaรฎnerions l'enfer sur eux.

in reply to small circle ๐Ÿ•Š in calmness

@small circle ๐Ÿ•Š in calmness I remember hearing about a black man who purposefully approached people in the KKK and other hate groups, and sat down and had conversations with them. Through their discussions, most of them saw that their previous world view was mistaken and toxic, and decided to break from their racist organizations and even renounce them. People can change. That does not mean they will, but they certainly are capable of it.
in reply to Scott M. Stolz

@scott I've seen a Louis Theroux episode where he interviewed a KKK leader who was best pals with his black neighbor, and they were cracking jokes and drinking beer together. They were sort of both asked the question "why are you friends since that is so opposed to you ideology?" .. and the response was kinda like "Duh? We are *neighbors*, don't you see?". They knew each other deeply and saw humans again. A sort of an eye-opener how environment impacts things and how we might improve on that.



musk and other dimwitted rich ppl who use billions of our tax dollars to fund their hobbies of playing with giant toys* want to use Hawaii as a dumping ground for their debris, threatening critical habitats that supports a diversity of wildlife.

If you have influence in this fight, helping to oppose it would not only distract you from the rest of the shit going on around us on the daily; you would also meet great ppl and it would be worth it.

Thank you @dansup for writing the letter.

Can you post it as primarily text, on this text medium, so it is much more accessible? Also more easily quoted and referenced and linked to.


in reply to Adam Pigg

Is there a special way to install esr91 on the pinetab2? I followed flypig.co.uk/geckoinstall and it installed but its crashing on start after a few seconds. Is there a way to troubleshoot this? I found a few github issues but they all seem hybris related.
in reply to Luigi311

@Luigi311 All you need to do is install sailfish, then upgrade to 5.0.0.51
devel-su
ssu-re 5.0.0.51
ssu ur
zypper ref
zypper dup
in reply to Adam Pigg

Im assuming its ssu re since ssu-re doesnt exist. It seemed to run into a lot of errors about missing packages and checksum errors on your kernel adaptation. I told it to continue anyways but upon rebooting looks like its still on 4.6.0.13 sauna according to the ssh greeting and the about product page
in reply to Luigi311

@Luigi311 Feel free to paste me all the output. yes, its ssu re ... im not sure if 5.0.0.51 is public yet, "zypper ls" will show if the repo is valid
in reply to Adam Pigg

That would be great! Heres the pastbin

in reply to Luigi311

@Luigi311 Ah, see hoe jolla and apps repos are invalid ... i guess its not public yet. please just wait until its available generally :)
in reply to Adam Pigg

I take it it's only released for the C2 and no general release date in sight?
in reply to Adam Pigg

Out of curiosity i tried doing 5.0.0.43 since that was released last month (only to c2) and it looks like the update has way less errors during the update process but then fails to boot so i guess i shall wait for 5.0.0.51.
in reply to Luigi311

@Luigi311 that might be my fault for breaking the kernel package yesterday :) ... 5.0.0.43 -should- work, but doesnt have the fixed browser for native/mesa devices


Iโ€™ve finally got around to installing #ublueaurora on my main personal laptop, a 10 year old 11โ€ MacBook Air.

Credit to @jorge and @UniversalBlue for engaging with the bullshit required to get the Broadcom WiFi working out if the box. *chefโ€™s kiss*

Everything seems to work perfectly except the webcam but that is a nightmare under Linux so Iโ€™ll survive.
