Wanted to show my 13yo where the parkour in #Titanfall 2 comes from, so I dug out #MirrorsEdge. I passed it by at the time, so it was a joyful, thrilling first playthrough for both of us. I'm lucky that he still engages curiously with his crazy Dad's quirky old #videogames. We discovered the game leans into themes of authoritarian overreach, protest, corruption, and illegal over-policing of dissent. As a result, in the game, acab, who you can disarm & disable, but your best defence is to run...

Ideas for Mastodon posts which I don't have time to put together:
1. Catalog of Rorschach's different facial expressions which, through Dave Gibbons' astonishingly accomplished #Watchmen artwork, are somehow discernible even through his entirely opaque mask.

I belatedly realize that when I read a book with some challenging aspects (today it's #HarrowTheNinth, which I underestimated, to my regret), I should have been using my ebook reader's highlight & annotate to mark up things that I find puzzling or remarkable along the way. A diligent application might be a workable alternative to the second reading that I'm beginning to see is required and deserved. 1/2

People joke about installing Python environments (https://xkcd.com/1987/), but I'm looking at #Typescript and... am I misunderstanding, but `sudo apt install npm` (on #Ubuntu2204) gives me a #node version (12.22) that isn't compatible with installing the typescript package (EBADENGINE required: node >=14.17). So I should install latest node using #nvm, which installs via curl of a script which git clones its own repo to my ~/.npm, does this sounds right so far? #newb #seekingAdvice

When I last bought a #keyboard I couldn't find any that was mechanical, #TKL std ANSI layout, >1 wireless connections, <5ms latency, backlit, hot-swappable, & w/o expensive features I don't need like configurable activation height and OLED screens.
I compromised on 'hot swappable', got a Logitech G915, and am regretting it. A 2nd switch has died & I don't want to keep desoldering them.
So I'm noping out, buying another, only 16 months later. There are more choices now than I can track!

I only recently realized that I have forever erroneously conflated as one person both John W. Campbell (Singularly influential editor of the seminal Astounding #ScienceFiction magazine, aka Analog, from '37 to '71) and Joseph Campbell (professor of literature in comparative mythology & religion, author of The Hero with a Thousand Faces, describing his theory of the archetypal #HerosJourney, aka the #monomyth.)

I should undertake challenging #reads.
instead of these #doomscrolling feeds.
But I've no strength to face
an escape from the base

I'm on a new project at work to create, store, and programmatically analyze datacenter building plans, eg. Calculating lengths of cable runs. I used to work in #gis, and remember just enough to know that all my approaches are hopelessly naive. Are #shapefiles still a viable option for low-ceremony vendor neutral structured #spatial analysis? (Probably from Python) cc. @sgillies

At #DHTech this morning, and in the first presentation, Bryan Tarpley from Texas A&M mentioned the New Variorum Shakespeare project, and I very happily went down A Midsummer Night's Dream rabbit hole -- this is really cool! https://buff.ly/4d9YZyO #DH2024
