Even people with the most to lose continue to support and rely heavily on:There's a real challenge when most of your external emails are passing through Google or Microsoft anyway, and when your social circle just stares blankly when you suggest Signals over WhatsApp. Critical mass takes a lot of force to overcome all that inertia.

"A macOS app that blurs your screen when you slouch."This is anti-shrimp bigotry and I will not stand for it.*

Mozilla's survey about the future of Mozilla and AI is terribly biased towards AI. -
Mozilla's survey about the future of Mozilla and AI is terribly biased towards AI.It's incredible how obtuse they are about their own user base, and what motivates someone to choose Firefox to begin with. Anyone who likes this crap is already perfectly happy using Chrome or Edge.

@nazokiyoubinbou @Viss ExactlyLike, depending on what you want to do, it might be as simple as throwing your data into DuckDB and generating some time series graphs with Plotly with a tiny bit of Python in a Jupyter NB, or a dashboard built using Dash. It's been a while since I've done any of that personally, though.

@nazokiyoubinbou @Viss ExactlyI don't have a firm idea of your options, but I wonder whether knowing more about your intended use case might help shape advice.
What kind of data are you looking to visualize, and how/where is it stored?
Is this for single user and as-needed, or something you might want running continuously or for multiple users?
I wonder if @hrbrmstr in particular has thoughts.

For anybody following the saga of my balls, the good news is they don’t think it’s cancer.Kevin, I'm thrilled for you and your highly unusual balls.

@nazokiyoubinbou @Viss ExactlyJust do a bunch of web search queries for "pressure cooker explosion" and "pressure cooker capsaicin chemical weapon". Surely you will not end up on a list.

@nazokiyoubinbou @Viss ExactlyYeah, I hate it when I fall for my pigbutchering victims, too.

‘Dueling Banjos’A silly thing I painted 11 years ago and apparently haven’t posted here beforeThis looks like it should either be Steve Martin's next album cover or the plot of a skit the next time he hosts SNL.

Weird how payment processors haven't cut Twitter off yet.See also: all of the security clearance holders outraged at having to comply with stringent lifestyle and self-reporting requirements while Elon gets to dabble in hard drugs and call up his buddy Putin whenever he feels like it while keeping his clearance.

@nazokiyoubinbou @Viss ExactlyYeah, but the "things" that you hope to get your way in this case are people and your relationships with them, and arguably that's worth a bit more. I have respect for the folks that put their effort into this. I just don't think that's my vocation. I don't have the patience or inclination for it.

@nazokiyoubinbou @Viss ExactlyI've heard of some successful deradicalization strategies, but they all seem unreliable and unscalable and require the patience of a saint. Basically, you have to invest months or years into earning their trust, withholding judgment even when they do or say the most ludicrous nonsense, and hope that at some point they'll realize the errors of their ways on their own terms and want to confide in you. Unfortunately, deradicalization takes orders of magnitude more time and energy than their initial radicalization, and they have to want it.
