  1. So happy to announce that finally, Swayora reached a usable state.

    Keep in mind, that I was working on the installer more than the sway configuration itself.

    So, keep checking it out for updates 😉

  2. @smeikx I can not recommend enough the keyboard. All these characters can be produced with a single swipe: °&=?!´`^{([])}~/\, also ctrl and alt.

  3. @linmob Thank you for this post. After trying late last year no my pinephone, your post gave me the right nudge to now give my another go with . Hopefully I'll find good instructrions to run it on .

  4. Just seen another paper published on oral #frailty . I am wondering when we will get to a "feet frailty", a "digestive frailty", or a "friendship frailty"... 😆

    This is nonsense to me.

    Geriatric medicine should avoid constructs that, rather than providing a person-centred approach, promote a partial/fragmented evaluation of the individual.

    #horror#Trailers#horrormovies#Frailty – @Lionsgate – Frailty, Bill Paxton’s striking directorial debut — now in chilling 4K for the first time — centers on the God’s Hand Killer, who terrorized a small Texas community with his axe-wielding butchery.

  7. #Frailty: a global #health challenge in need of local action

    To me, a critical issue in frailty (and #IntrinsicCapacity) is realising the limited importance of tools in capturing the condition of interest.

    Contextualise and be pragmatic; one (tool) will never fit all (globally).

  8. Just received this interesting thesis by Willeke Ravensbergen:

    📖 "Hip #fractures and daily functioning in old age - when does decline start and how can it be measured?"

  11. OU – 蘇醒 II: Frailty Review

    By Dolphin Whisperer

    Beijing isn’t known for being a hotbed of metal, and what bands do exist (documented) don’t really present many ways to listen on a global scale. But, being comprised of human beings, music persists in that region whether we realize it or not. And of that perseverance OU1 blossomed. Triumphant and glistening, their 2022 debut one wasted no time infecting and warping my listening consciousness with its unique blend of progressive metal, power pop, and dream-like ambient fusion. In a world where bands like Haken and Leprous continue to streamline and commodify their once vibrant and promising sounds, OU planted a crooked and smiling stake amongst the swath of fledgling prog bands everywhere. With that exuberant spirit, lightning threatens to strike twice.

    OU’s first adventure caused big enough waves for labelmate Devin Townsend to sign on to give 蘇醒 II: Frailty a level of production one didn’t quite have. Often, Townsend’s most intriguing engineering work has arrived via his softer, layered works (Ki, Ghost, Transcendence) where his minimalist weavings shine bright. And while OU has one foot in the other maximalist realm that earned Townsend a reputation for pushing a throbbing wall of sound, the back half of one, and, consequently, the comedowns of 蘇醒, finds power in the explosions of careful and heavily layered builds. In this space, Townsend allows OU’s spry synthcraft and ethereal vocal layering to wisp about with freedom, frantic abandon, and dreamy oscillation.

    As such, every moment of 蘇醒 steps either toward a serene tension or an explosive climb. Drummer and primary songwriter Anthony Vanacore rests the center of OU’s sound, laying foundations that range from a mathematically erratic SikTh kick-infested bounce (“淨化 Purge”) to a Jegog emulating wonderland that’s as much King Crimson as it is “Kaneda’s Theme” (“念 Recall”). Whether the drive of a track calls for virtuosic snare ghosting (“海 Ocean”) or arena-weighted hammering (“破魂 Spirit Broken”), his kit serves as a guide. And in suit, his stringed bandmates render as tonal chameleons, lurching along with chord-expanding drones and pops to build ascending progressions (“蘇醒 Frailty,” “海 Ocean”) or offering Metheny-smooth jazzy counterpoint to swell drifting ambience (“血液 Redemption”). OU’s compositional vocabulary rests in harmonic excess, a point in which this seasoned troupe indulges for 歪歪地愛 YYDS,2 which is both offensive and brilliant in its forceful djent playfulness.

    But all of the above hinges on the energetic flow that vocalist Lynn Wu imbues across each track. Again offering her services only in her native Chinese tongue, there isn’t a single word across 蘇醒 that I understand, though lyric translations and title themes paint a picture throughout that lands a touch more introspective than OU’s previous work. In turn, Wu’s chopped and terraced patterns spiral and gather toward sonic peaks where a lead guitar normally might exist in a different context (“蘇醒 Frailty,” “海 Ocean,” “輪迴 Reborn”). As a more traditional and piercing rock voice, Wu holds her own against the equally wailing Townsend on “淨化 Purge” and works alone to swing “破魂 Spirit Broken” between outcry and melancholic resolution. And still reaching further for new levels of manipulation, Wu sees her lines shifted to a vocaloid approximation to match the low-bit charm of “衍生 Capture and Elongate (Serenity).”3 Whatever character 蘇醒 requires Wu embodies in an unparalleled manner.

    After all, it’s the idiosyncratic atmosphere into which OU collects its myriad sounds that makes 蘇醒 II: Frailty such a delight. And with a spacious master to back its meticulous construction and snappy runtime, it’s effortless to fall prey to the polyrhythmic hypnosis that OU has mastered. The most unfortunate part, though, about sinking deeper in love with what this singular Chinese act has created is that it’s only real partner is the previous OU album. So if you’re new to the game, you’re in luck, you get one and II. And if you need any extra convincing, just ask yourself whether you enjoy listening to prog that drives lesser music enjoyers up a wall. The real fun is where others fear to look.

  14. One of my frailties, as a #programmer, is my low tolerance for the #snake_case, despite having programmed in C for more than four decades. Oddly, when I'm using LISP, I have no qualms with its #kebab-case! But my preferred style has always been Smalltalk's #camelCase.

    Nim is the only modern language that I know that automatically converts between camel case and snake case, allowing the programmer to use whichever style he fancies.

    Language designers should take note.

  16. From the #IrishTimes

    It’s not often world leaders display personal frailties the way Rachel Reeves and Keir Starmer did
    Admissions of overwhelm show humanity, if people in charge are strategic with their weaknesses

    The humanity of letting people go hungry or not afford to heat their homes.

    Cry me a river.

  17. A quotation from Horace

    Good Homer sometimes nods, which gives me a jerk —
    But sleep may well worm its way into any long work!
     
                                                                [Et idem
    indignor, quandoque bonus dormitat Homerus;
    verum operi longo fas est obrepere somnum.]

    Horace (65–8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
    Epistles [Epistularum, Letters], Book 2, ep. 3 “Art of Poetry [Ars Poetica; To the Pisos],” l. 358ff (2.3.358-360) (19 BC) [tr. Palmer Bovie (1959)]
