  1. Attended a photo presentation about connection buses to the Stockholm metro (and the period before that), up until 1967 by Stefan Back from Svenska spårvägssällskapet held at Spårvägsmuseet (Stockholm transport museum).

  2. Eligible men will soon be automatically registered for #MilitaryDraft

    "Most male U.S. citizens ages 18-25 are required to register with SSS, though there has not been an active military draft since 1973, according to the agency's website.

    "Now, the agency is moving to an automatic registration process, rather than requiring eligible men to sign up manually.

    "The amendment to the Military Selective Service Act implementing automatic registration is set to take effect one year after the #NDAA was enacted into law, according to the bill text.

    "On March 30, #SSS formally submitted automatic registration as proposed rule to OIRA, which will now review and finalize the regulatory action.
    According to the SSS website, the change 'transfers responsibility for registration from individual men to SSS through integration with federal data sources.' "

  3. For this #screenshotsaturday, I'll just repost our new Bibidi mechanics: Shrink and Magnetize. One reduces output damage and the other copies debuff. It synergizes quite well with other debuffs like Poison. Sounds cool? Check it out store.steampowered.com/app/354

    Paper #ETHZ

    "... protocol for resolving identities based on usernames and on phone numbers introduced a #vulnerability that allows a malicious server to inject arbitrary messages into one-to-one conversations under specific circumstances"

    "The second #attack is even more severe. It arises from Signal's Sealed Sender (SSS) feature, designed to allow sender identities to be hidden ... a combination of two errors in the #SSS implementation in #Android allows a #malicious server to #inject arbitrary messages into both one-to-one and group conversations."

  5. The Skymap, our quest and unlock system, is starting to look a lot like a Christmas tree! Not quite the season anymore, but I've grown fond of the colors since. A little secret sneak peek in there for the detail-oriented

  7. Still currently maxed out on my vacation time, so it's #PayDayOff #Today.

    Spent basically all day redoing my old #Thinkpad X1c. Swapped the RAM from my old xeon laptop to go from 32 -> 64 GB, added a second m2 nvme drive to double usable storage to a TB.

    Currently doing a #guix reconfigure after a new install, so that'll take about forever. Then it's time to see about doing the #SSS setup for it.

    My thinking is to have the home directory live on the second drive.

    I also thought about running #QubesOS on the thing, but I just dunno on that one yet.

  8. Went on an excursion today after the yearly meeting for the Uppsala chapter of SSS in the old Scania-Vabis bus from 1966 looking at the on-going construction of the new tram/lightrail lines.

  9. @rafa I just pushed a fix to #sss where we add the (forgotten) %base-user-accounts. This will fix #qemu virtual machines, among other things:

    (users (append (get-setting 'users) %base-user-accounts))

    Make sure to use v3.3.18 onwards :)

  10. @rafa thanks for your shoutout ❤️ your kind words are much appreciated, lots of hours of work and love went into creating and perfecting #sss and hacking in #guix , #guile #scheme and #emacs #lisp to achieve it. Let me know if I can help you somewhere and contributions, improvements to the project are always welcome 👍 enjoy this journey, and with some time Emacs might start feeling like and extension to you, with the REPL too 😊 #hyprland is nice indeed

  11. Was doing some aesthetic improvements on #iter-vitae , my #curriculum / #cv / #resume generator that is written in #guile #scheme (a #lisp) and runnable with #guix.

    I am now a happy user of #ibm #plex #font #family 😀 really elegant, legible and a #foss font, if we can call it that (#ofl)

    I am using this font in all my projects as well, like #wikimusic #sss #byggsteg #hygguile and #lucidplan

    Auguri a #BrianEno che oggi compie 77 anni!
    #SSS lo omaggia con una recensione al documentario #Eno, dedicato al celebre compositore e inventore della #musica d'ambiente.
    Il film di #GaryHustwit si ispira agli stessi principi generativi che guidano il processo compositivo di Brian Eno, con versioni multiple dello stesso film che variano a ogni proiezione grazie all'uso di un software in grado di modificare le sequenze in tempo reale.

  14. Consonants Need Vowels?

    I remember being told that consonants need vowels by one of my elementary school teachers. I remember repeating this to my oldest sister, Lynda, after she had a kid or two.

    Lynda said no you don’t need a vowel sound to make a consonant sound. You can just say Boo [as in book] or Foo [as in foot], for the B and F sounds. Notice that I had to use vowels to illustrate my point. But I never caught on to that at the time.

    So I remember pre talking with her babies and using what I thought were just consonant sounds to get them to the point where they could almost speak. A couple months later they were speaking.

    The short oo sound is the “invisible” vowel in English. It is the u in pull and bull. And the vowel that is between the T and L in cattle and bottle. It may seem invisible at first, but it is definitely there. I don’t blame my sister or me for not realizing it was a vowel, because shows like Electric Company would use this “invisible” vowel to sound out words.

    For instance they would say Boo A Doo when sounding out the word Bad. Then they would say the three letter names closer and closer together until magically the oo sound disappeared and they said Bad.

    When I realized this, I thought for years that what I was originally told was correct. Consonants need vowels.

    That is until I saw mmmm written out one day and I forced myself to think about this. So it became consonants need vowels except m.

    Then I thought of a few more. Ssss doesn’t need a vowel. Neither does zzzz. There are also Shhhh and Zhhhh. (If you’re wondering what sound zh is, it’s the g in mirage, the s in leisure. In school I was taught that it was the soft g sound.)

    Anyhow, that’s five exceptions to the consonants need vowels rule. Do you have any more?
