If you, like me, are bored to death by the current levels of cinematography in seasonal anime slop, do yourself a favour, and watch Dandadan. Go into it blind, but give it a chance for the first arc of four episodes. Then, once you reach episode 7, you’ll see what Science SARU has cooked.
Dandadan Production Notes #01-04
Now that the first arc of the Dandadan anime is over, we can look back at how it represents its series director's extraordinary obsession with internal logic, the way that has enabled creative choices, and also the limitations that its team has to na…kViN (Sakuga Blog)

This afternoon, an acquaintance joined a Mastodon instance and asked me which "celebrities" are present in the Fediverse, as if it were important to determine the value of a social network based on that.
I told him that the most important user in the Fediverse is him. Just as it’s you, reading this. Someone who has decided to interact with others freely. Who has chosen to trust their administrator (or create their own instance) more than they trust those who run traditional, monolithic, centralized social networks.
So, I want to thank all the friends of BSD Cafe, whether local or not, for being here and making this place what it is. And I thank all my friends in the Fediverse, who make my timeline lively, interesting, intelligent, fun, and thought-provoking - every day, at any time.

Really happy with how my latest embroidery project turned out. I used a pattern from a magazine (credit to www.lucyfreeman.co.uk) Learned some new techniques, my favourite being sewing with multiple different colour threads on the same needle to blend colours together!

I have enjoyed Mike Duncan's Revolutions Podcast for years. This fall though he is shipping a fictional piece about a revolution on Mars in the 2200s. Having listened to his historical accounts, I do quite like him using the same tone with a fictional revolution.
History doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes as they say.
Two years ago I bought 70 Years of Christmas Number Ones by Andrew Burford. That was very good. So I'll see what new things I can learn from this one.

For me I went with a hosted email solution six or seven years ago that takes care of all my email/calendar/contacts needs (Fastmail), so went with SyncThing as a Dropbox replacement, with most of its global discovery stuff disabled.
I think I've only tried the former, but Jitsu Meet and BBB both seem like nice solutions.

I ran UnixBench (github.com/kdlucas/byte-unixbe…) on my new Quartz64 SBC (RK3566 SoC, quad-core ARM Cortex-A55 CPU, 4 GB RAM, 64 GB eMMC). I ended up running it four times, with different settings of the Linux CPU frequency governor. Here are the results, in the order that I obtained them:
1. schedutil (default): mwcampbell.us/quartz64-unixben…
2. performance: mwcampbell.us/quartz64-unixben…
3. powersave: mwcampbell.us/quartz64-unixben…
4. schedutil again: mwcampbell.us/quartz64-unixben…

I'm going to boot my M1 Mac mini into Linux (Fedora Asahi Remix), run UnixBench there with the different CPU frequency governors, and see what the results look like. I'm sure the M1 is in a different performance category than the RK3566, though they're both ARM64.

Navazuji na včerejší tip.
Tady je porovnání iPhone a různých odnoží Androidu. Většina lidí má "Android" - distribuci plnou šmírovátek od Google obohacenou o bloatware výrobce, který nejen že šmíruje po svém, ale často zavléká bezpečnostní chyby, zabírá místo v úložišti i RAM.
V GrapheneOS mimo jiné vůbec není položka "Reklama" s Mobile Advertising ID.

in reply to Adam MacLeod • • •@adam Haha. My parents got me a dedicated phone line in 1998 because I was constantly on the Internet via dialup.
As for that old 65-line BBS in Wichita, it was running Major BBS, later renamed to WorldGroup. That program could run a multi-node BBS on a single PC under DOS without running an multitasking OS like Windows or OS/2, though it did use a DOS extender to access more memory. That software fascinated me.
