You've heard of #scala language that works on the jvm. You also heard about scala native target to native (C) and interoping with that world side stepping the #jvm...

Now get ready for #clojure (jvm language) and it's target to Cpp.

A study suggests that in Semitic languages like Arabic, words are mentally stored as separate units of "roots" and "templates" rather than as whole words.

Distinct patterns of speech errors, language games, and historical changes in Semitic languages strongly support a morpheme-based theory of morphology where consonantal roots and vocalic templates are fundamental and independent units in the mental lexicon.

"Farm worker dies a day after chaotic immigration raid at California farm."

“Relatives of Jaime Alanis, who has worked picking tomatoes at the farm for 10 years, said he called his wife in Mexico during the raid to tell her immigration agents had arrived and that he was hiding with others inside the farm.”

“The mother of an American worker said her son was held at the worksite for 11 hours and told her agents took workers’ cellphones to prevent them from calling family or filming and forced them to erase cell phone video of agents at the site.”

«Συνεχίζουμε ακόμα να εργαζόμαστε στο νοσοκομείο, και τα τανκς βρίσκονται μόλις λίγα μέτρα μακριά μας. Τώρα είμαστε πιο κοντά στον θάνατο παρά στη ζωή.

Οι στρατιώτες δεν δείχνουν έλεος—ούτε σε ένα παιδί, ούτε σε έναν ηλικιωμένο, ούτε σε έναν γιατρό, ούτε σε μια νοσοκόμα. Μένουμε εδώ γιατί είμαστε άνθρωποι και γιατί η αποστολή μας είναι μια ανθρωπιστική αποστολή.

Αν αυτά τα κοράκια αρπάξουν τις ψυχές μας… μην μας ξεχάσετε, και μην μας υποβιβάσετε σε αριθμούς. Αγαπάμε τη ζωή και έχουμε όνειρα όπως κι εσείς. Εχουμε παιδιά και συντρόφους που αγαπάμε. Αλλά το να είσαι πραγματικά άνθρωπος σημαίνει να μην εγκαταλείπεις ποτέ εκείνους που χρειάζονται την ανθρωπιά σου.

Πείτε στον κόσμο για εμάς. Πείτε τους ότι ήμασταν πιο ανθρώπινοι από εκείνους που απλώς ισχυρίζονταν ότι είναι. Πείτε τους ότι διαλέξαμε το θάνατο αντί να εγκαταλείψουμε την ευγενή αποστολή μας.

Μην πείτε απλώς ότι ήμασταν ήρωες—πείτε ότι καταλάβαμε τι σημαίνει στ’ αλήθεια να είσαι άνθρωπος. Και συγχωρήστε μας. Δεν είμαστε αριθμοί».

Translation:
On Friday, there are those who cannot find a morsel to satisfy their hunger.
Famine ravages children, women, and men without mercy, and prices are a fire burning what little sustenance remains, if it’s even available.
The situation is catastrophic, and the suffering is unbearable... people are collapsing to the ground from the intensity of hunger, oh world..

Sex Fox Friday
The fox knows what she has, and she knows just how to use it. If one were to fear the tube fox they would have little awareness of how she controls the relationship. A few days of frequent visits and that fear will vanish. A few weeks of visits, then a gap of not visiting and she will be missed. At that point it's over, the fox will come back and have her romance.

Fairy Friday
Beware the scheming and manipulative fairy. Her reserved attitude makes her seem more innocent but it's all an act. She purposefully refuses leadership as to not draw suspicion. Even when acting bratty, she's doing it with some intent to draw out a reaction. She knows how to play a human man, and it's far too late once you're in her sights.

electron has been a real problem wrt. wayland, or something.

though moving to flatpak just makes sense for most people. as a solo dev i am not at all percent interested in whatever bullshit bikeshedding 20+ linux distros have to get my package accepted.

to paraphrase deming, a slightly different building code in every state does more to damage mass production than a universal tariff

re: computer rant

@verita84 i have personally dealt with trying to do such a thing with some music software on void / alpine.

such issues i've run in to are things like
- we don't like how that project wrote their build scripts, please rewrite upstreams build scripts to appease us
- someone else is already working on that package (hasn't updated in months, no updates on approvals or rejection)
- we don't like the way you marked that CPU as a non-supported target, please change it to a case statement. update: unrelated maintainer doesn't like that you approved the case statement, please rewrite the script to use an if/else*
- no sorry that requires .NET which we will never approve because we don't approve of the bootstrap requirements of the C# compiler

* this is the issue where i started referring to all upstreams as bikeshedders because their change requirements were literally pointless

@+bonifartius 𒂼𒄄 Why? Because developers are lazy and don't want to have to compile and link for each platform just to save you convenience and memory. So flatpaks and snaps get around this by bundling libraries, then what version the system has on it natively becomes irrelevant, but this approach wastes your disk space, creates additional dependencies that can break your system, and defeats the purpose of linux shared libraries wasting memory.

I am mildly amused by this. So Taito made Touhou Spell Bubble, good game, problem being that it is only Touhou content. It probably didn't sell as well as an all rounder rhythm game. So now they're just outright copying and pasting the format they used for Spell Bubble and making it a new IP.
And I do mean copy and paste. The UI is practically the exact same as Spell Bubble's but without the Touhou paint. :cirno_laugh:

The greek disarmament.
The treaty specified the disarmament of EAM-ELAS, which, according to records, surrendered within the next few days or weeks 100 artillery pieces of various types, 81 heavy mortars, 138 light mortars, 419 machine guns, 1,412 submachine guns, 713 automatic rifles, 48,973 rifles and pistols, 57 antitank rifles and 17 radios.

[2]Ultimately, the promises enshrined in the Treaty of Varkiza were not upheld. The main problem was that the treaty gave amnesty only for political reasons, but many of the actions by communists during the Dekemvriana were viewed as nonpolitical. After the signing of the treaty, there was widespread persecution of communists and former EAM members and supporters over the next two years.[4] This period, immediately prior to the outbreak of the Greek Civil War, was known as the White Terror.

Thinking about the Israeli attack on Iran recently and I can't shake the fact that no one is talking about the US losing not just one, but two of its most advanced stealth fighter jets, the F35 lightning.

This jet cost trillions to develop, billions to maintain, and was largely sold as our only choice for air superiority fighter to counter china.

And Iran sent two of them down in flames.
