"looks inside, individually packaged"
  • Some doctor told my dad a while ago that he felt like we weren’t that far off from physically poking around in a mind and hoping that we fixed it- or that we’re closer to that than understanding it.

    It’s an old and second hand story. I do appreciate the idea though that we’ve found ways to disrupt the mind that can be beneficial, but that we’re not at the level of being able to do more than throw a cog in the works in a general direction.

    For me it makes it easier to accept when the first - or second thing does work. We’re just trying things. It’s not like we know what is gonna unclog the works.

    This is getting pretty deep into a metaphor. Sorry

  • Firefox 118.0.2 released
  • I get what you’re saying, and agree that the gambling industry is predatory on its face, but isn’t the preference for Firefox over Chromium(amongst tech people on the fediverse) largely driven by the idea that the web should be an open platform with open standards that renders and functions the same on different rendering engines?

  • APC UPS switches to battery 50 times a day
  • I’m dealing with something similar but not as bad.

    Our best guess is brownouts for our instance, but it doesn’t sound like what you’re dealing with. Good luck. Let me know if you’re able to find out. Hope the hardware isn’t failing.

  • An abundance of rice (long; open full post)
  • It’s not the same, but this all reminds me of ‘A House for Mister Biswas,’ which one reviewer on Goodreads describes as “more than 600 pages filled with the bickering, moans and wailing of a large Indo-Trinidadian family.”

    I love stories like this. Humans are so funny.
