@dltj ahoy there! Believe it or not, I found a year old todo today to send a greeting to you -- see anagora.org/2024-05-27 for recorded context :)
I found your annotations in hypothes.is and I think they are cool! You are one of the few people I am aware of who are known to use [[wikilinks]] in platforms that don't officially support them (yet), which is one of my pet projects :)

@piggz Yeah, that was my hope too. My understanding is that GraalVM still uses a JVM, but it's baked it and more restrictive, so simpler to manage and hopefully more efficient too.
GraalVM comes with some restrictions compared to a JVM, so there's still a question for NewPipe, but I plan to look at this over the coming days.

While we watch the 'Blood moon' lunar eclipse tonight, the Firefly Blue Ghost lander will capture a solar eclipse on the moon!
The eclipse at Firefly’s landing site will last ~5 hours starting at 0500 UTC and will include ~2 hours of totality, starting at 0618 UTC.
Here is a visualization from NASA of the view from the Moon, as Earth's disk covers a much smaller Sun.

Blue Ghost Mission 1: Live Updates

Here is a time-lapse video posted by Firefly Aerospace of the solar eclipse and "diamond ring" seen by the Blue Ghost Lander last night.
The glowing ring of the eclipse is also reflected on the solar panel.
The large ring seen in the reflection on the solar panel is clearly an artifact.
Earth looks small because of the wide angle lens.
#BlueGhost healthily survived the ~2 hours of totality with little sunlight to charge its batteries.

The model is very simplified, but I think the thin conductor strips from the solar cells would create such an effect.
The latest mural by Shepard Fairey, aka Obey,
"Apathy and ignorance have promoted a decline in civilization and quality civic engagement, giving rise to forces that promote fear, division, and nationalism."
This is how the artist expresses himself on his Instagram channel to present the work "The Knowledge + Action", a celebration of the path that contemporary man should take to rise to a role of power, to be then exercised in a democratic and fair way.
Only from the sum of "Knowledge" and "Action" can pure and conscious power be born..

"Trump's disappearing of Mahmoud Khalil should be a warning for us all. If Trump has his way, Kahlil will be just the first of many. …
This episode is the latest in what the left warned would be Trump’s anti-democratic crusade were he to be re-elected. What New York Times columnist Michelle Goldberg calls the 'Greatest Threat to Free Speech Since the Red Scare.'”

"Democrats are stuck with two terrible options: Either facilitating a government shutdown or allowing Republicans to pass a spending bill that would defund D.C.'s police and schools. Meanwhile, CEOs are getting rattled by Trump's tariff and trade-war chaos, a 'Hispanic Hibernation' is leading to job loss, and Marco Rubio is turning Hamas supporter Mahmoud Khalil into a martyr—as the campus free speech warriors go missing."

in reply to In #Flancia we'll meet • • •Hello! First glance at Anagora is....interesting? A microblog? A social network? Will explore momentarily.
In any case, yes! The reason I'm using Markdown formatting with [[wikilink]] links on Hypothesis is that I've got annotations feeding into Obsidian.md via some custom Python scripting. Judging from the time of your note, I think it was this annotation: hypothes.is/a/LMzrXgT5Ee-WkHdW… ...which looks like this screenshot in Obsidian. The wikilink _does_ link to something in myObsidian.
