Updating my #Processing + #Python tools table:
https://github.com/villares/Resources-for-teaching-programming/blob/main/README.md#processing--python-tools-table
After some years, things changed and my opinions changed a bit too:
- #py5 is going *super strong* and the "new snake_case names" are not an issue for me anymore. I used to worry a lot about all the Processing Python mode examples and teaching materials out there, and some of my own, with "CamelCase Processing names" I'm not worried at all about it anymore!
- For the record, Processing Python mode is just a legacy thing, no one should start anything new with it.
- The great "pure Python" (no Java required) Processing implementation project #p5py seems stalled, latest release in Dec. 2023 :((( Advancing it was always going to be an uphill battle...
- The unrelated #Brython based site p5py.com seems to be gone, so I removed it from the table.
- I added a link to my own #pyp5js hack *py5pjs/py5mode* because this is the version of *pyp5js* I'm using most nowadays.*
We did an experiment at work today: Do I even need to lock my laptop when I’m gone or is nobody able to use it anyway?
It went as expected. 🤣
@prologic I’m so tired of this. (That’s the goal. They want to wear people down.)
This whole Age Verification that's being rolled out in the UK, AU and parts of the EU is totally fucking bullshit. Death to the Online Safety Act.
@kat yeah it's pretty terrible these days. Most recent trouble I had was something as simple as installing and setting up the Tailscale client. On literally all my other devices (Linux and Android) that was a cinch, but on Windows.... ohh boy, I had to mess around with reg edits and all sorts of crap and eventually bludgeoned it into working, but it was a bloody pain.

A #musiquinta é para músicas ou bandas com nome de cidade, estado ou paÃs.
Laibach é "the Austrian German name of the Slovenian capital Ljubljana" e também p nome da banda escolhida. Tem várias músicas com nomes de paÃses (especialmente graças ao álbum Volk) mas escolho uma música que fala sobre um continente: Eurovision.

Der AMIGA 500 war mein erster Computer und das erste Spiel, das ich darauf gespielt habe, war Giana Sisters. Von da an war ich süchtig und habe letztlich deshalb auch programmieren gelernt. Wir haben ’ne kleine Sommerfolge aufgenommen, in der wir über Computerspiele unserer Kindheit sprechen, und hatten viel Spaß dabei:https://maurice-renck.de/en/notes/2025/computerspiele-meiner-kindheit

Its a problem, if most of the real estates are in the hands of foreign companies. Who ownes the land, the oil and gas fields, the power plants, lithium and uranium? Who ownes Black Rock?
I think that most of the paper dollars are in the hands of US citicens.
Re. 1c97c : We have now [1913 and onwards] a situation in which U.S. citizens have been hoodwinked into accepting paper money which is owned by foreign corporations. More recently, U.S. citizens are allowing themselves to be hoodwinked into accepting bitcoin which is owned by foreign corporations. In both instances, it's the foreign ownership which is the problem. I'll want to review my notes on this, - but that's what I remember just now.

@kat If you’re willing to ignore that it’s proprietary software, then Windows used to be pretty good. Like, 25 years ago. After Windows 2000 (or maybe XP) it went downhill fast. Kind of makes me sad, actually. 😂

@kat Oh no. 😨 Backups! We need more backups!
You can explicitly use colors in manpages. I saw this in the apt manpage of Ubuntu recently, which, for some reason, uses blue text in one place:
https://movq.de/v/de5ab72016/s.png
Makes little sense to me. I’m glad that most manpages don’t do this. I wouldn’t want unicorn vomit all over the place.
Using colors can be done using the low level commands \m and \M:
.TH foo_program 3
\m[blue]I'm blue\m[], da ba dee.
\m[red]\M[yellow]I'm red on yellow.\m[]\M[]
This is quite horrible.

June 21st, 1789 - The Constitution for the United States of America is ratified, with New Hampshire becoming the ninth state to ratify. Article I, Sections 9 and 10 of the Constitution contain provisions which clearly prohibit the federal government and the states from granting titles: "No title of nobility shall be granted by the United States: and no person holding any office of profit or trust under them, shall, without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any king, prince, or foreign State. No State shall enter into any treaty, alliance, or confederation; grant letters of marque and reprisal; coin money; emit bills of credit; make anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts; pass any bill of attainder, ex postfacto law, or law impairing the obligation of contracts, or grant any title of nobility." However, no penalty for violating the Article is specified.

@eldersnake Yeah, it’s really the last thing we need. I’d love to see X11 getting more attention – but not like this …
Distrobox is pretty handy and kind of amazed I haven't played with it before now. I wanted to quickly try out Proton's Authenticator they just released, but they only had binaries for Ubuntu and Fedora (naturally), but I'm on Void Linux on this laptop.
Installed the latest basic Fedora image with Distrobox, used dnf to install the downloaded rpm file within it, and presto, running the app within Void like I'd just downloaded it though the normal repos.
Certainly explains why in some parts of the interwebs I've noticed RWNJs suddenly hating on anything Wayland and pushing XLibre.
Wild when display servers become political battlegrounds.

The 'god bless' line about Trump ?? Did John Glanton tell you to say that ? If yes, then why did you listen ?? Here in the United States of America we live in allegiance to our Republic. To whom has Trump ever shown any allegiance ? A god might possibly bless him, I've no doubt that he needs it rather desperately, - and anyway, gods tend to be trans-national.
