America: third world country, first world prices.

it’s extremely rare to find such a cheap used car. my partner spent $8k on one that lasted a year. also, you might be surprised to learn that driving isn’t optional in most of the US - it’s literally impossible to live without a car. I live in a suburb. it’s several miles of dangerous roads to get to a grocery store. there is no nearby public transit. even large cities like LA were completely designed around cars. zoning and urban planning here completely screwed us.

yes, it sucks, yes I’m aware, yes I’d love to live in a walkable European city with commuter rail and cafes on the street corner, no I don’t have a choice.

weeds are to gardens like my house is to HOAs.

is this… somehow… real?

could you make this?

Friendship ended with nuclear non-proliferation. Now nuclear proliferation is my best friend.

the Classicists and the classists!

Isn’t jfx still actually using HTML and CSS, though? like it’s cool that the UI logic is in Java, but doesn’t using CSS mean you still need to lug a rendering engine around, even if not a whole browser?

Java (and Object Pascal, I’m assuming) have very old-looking UIs. Discord’s gonna have trouble attracting users if their client looks like a billing system from 2005. Also, what do you do about the web client? Implement the UI once in HTML/CSS/JS, and again in JForms?

So if you’re picking one UI to make cross-platform, and you need a web client, do you pick JForms and make it work on the web? or React and make it work on desktop?

My passport got “corrected” to M after being stuck in weeks of bureaucratic limbo and waiting hours at the passport agency. One of the agents even told me I should just accept it so that way I’d be able to leave the country.

Yeah, I dreamed of EZIC.

and I was just looking at a 100Tbps backhaul the other day… that’s what, a billion times more bandwidth?

I read CS papers from the late '80s/early '90s and it feels like unearthing cuneiform tablets. Lots of good ideas, just everything felt so raw and new.

I really like your art style! happy you came over from Reddit. 💜

He might have a connective tissue disorder? EDS in particular causes stretchy skin, though I’ve never seen the scalp do that.

t. EDS patient. it’s pretty crippling and painful but I have some fun party tricks!

And Dimitry Prigozhin was Putin’s chef! Before he founded PMC Wagner, helped invade Ukraine, led a failed coup attempt, and got blown up.

Truly the soul of Russia is in its cooking. 🪆
