"She left people thinking they were slightly better people. They werenβt, but as Nanny said, it gave them something to live up to."

#GNUTerryPratchett - who singlehandedly made humanity fractionally better.
That time Pratchett talked about the current political situation
"And some people didnβt like anyone who knew more than they did, so these days the wandering teachers and the travelling librarians steered clear of the place." (from Wintersmith)

So, TRON: Ares.
pros:
- NIN
- also, I loved Tron (1982) to bits *even when I watched it as a grownup*
cons:
- the premise seems idiotic
- light cycles turning off the trail? COME ON!
- no frisbee so far
- Jared fucking Leto
I don't know.
Fuck. Ho appena scoperto che La Corona di Ghiaccio (Wintersmith) di #GNUTerryPratchett non Γ¨ disponibile in ebook.
Qualcuno ha un consiglio rapidissimo su un libro in italiano*, ebook, che faccia *ridere* delle persone di 7 anni e che non abbia niente a che fare con nazi-TERF assortite?

* andrebbe bene anche tedesco ma la mia pronuncia Γ¨ umiliante e quindi non posso leggerlo alle suddette persone
I'm still unemployed, and I'm starting to think that I'm not going to find a job with #Django (in Berlin or remote).
After 25yrs as a dev I'm really pretty good - actually I'm good enough that I'm a better tailwind developer after three days' than people who've been using it for a year or more. And that's with me being a backender by trade.
Anybody's hiring? I'm also a good tech lead, I can do devops, etc etc.

I've been using Mint (Cinnamon) exclusively for the last four years or so, and I'm generally completely happy and satisfied and I don't miss Windows at all.
Except for one thing: Windows terminal.
And actually just one part of Windows terminal: being able to give different names to tabs.
I don't want to use a different terminal with AI bullshit or anything, I just want to have different names in tabs.
Anybody?

One of my kids is very much into minerals (for unknown reasons since I'm a rockhound and 7yos routinely hate what dad likes, right? Right?) so we started a "grow your own alum crystal" science project.
Unfortunately the crystals aren't growing as expected, so I had to start looking for information to see if we're doing something wrong.
Having found such information, I can confidently say that DAMN now I'm going to have *yet another* obsession.
