They still have Germany, with its paraconstitutional Staatsräson.

Padme Amidala: “For social democracy, right …?”

The Victorian government should announce railway electrification (of the V/Line routes serving Melbourne’s commuter belt, followed by routes such as Geelong, Ballarat and Bendigo) as a flagship project along the lines of the level crossing removal project.

There are recompilation tools in some form; there’s a version of the C64 speech synthesiser SAM somewhere on Github that has been translated into very unreadable C code with global variables for the 6502 registers and 64K of RAM and C code that does the equivalent of 6502 instructions (I think the ST* instructions that touch the SID have been replaced with audio-writing code). For games, presumably you’d want this sort of thing with some libraries that do VIC-II graphics, SID audio, simulate hardware interrupts and such.

If one wanted to distribute C64 games to people who aren’t necessarily into C64 hardware or emulation, what would be the best way of doing so? Are there tools for either wrapping such a game in a preconfigured emulator or else recompiling the 6502 code into a native app for existing game platforms?

Somewhat heartening to see that for every ex-Labour voter going to the Faragist kleptofash, several are going to the Greens, and more probably would if they knew about them.

Wouldn’t that make you a Shy Red Tory?

According to this article, John Major came so close to giving the UK a world-class railway system. A bit more deregulation and some light-handed tweaking of incentive structures would have done it.

Expecting understanding of concepts from LLMs is a category error.

The security is dubious, and Durov is not exactly an exile: he travels to Russia regularly, and Telegram have had (and might still have) development offices there, suggesting some kind of accommodation with the authorities there.

That’s basically a dog-bites-man story by now.

you can add Orban and Erdogan to that list

 

Jordan Peterson is in ICU again. This time it’s not experimental drug treatment in Russia, but apparently the result of mould exposure, and/or a spiritual attack by unknown evildoers. His daughter and fellow carnivore influencer has called for prayers.

Panicked Curtis Yarvin—JD Vance's guru—plans to flee USA

The arsehole was quoted:

The second Trump revolution, like the first, is failing. It is failing because it deserves to fail. It is failing because it spends all its time patting itself on the back. It is failing because its true mission, which neither it nor (still less) its supporters understand, is still as far beyond its reach as algebra is beyond a cat. Because the vengeance meted out after its failure will dwarf the vengeance after 2020—because the successes of the second revolution are so much greater than the first—I feel that I personally have to start thinking realistically about how to flee the country. Everyone else in a similar position should have a 2029 plan as well. And it is not even clear that it will wait until 2029: losing the Congress will instantly put the administration on the defensive.

Me:

So apparently not all is good in broligarchy land. Still it’s more likely he might be suffering some breakdown instead. Relatively poverty stricken people buy expensive convertibles when they have a midlife crises. People like him poop on the internet. Most likely he will be around, for sometime, causing grief

 

Has anyone else noticed CoMaps’ handling of touch events (on iOS, at least) being a bit janky? Sometimes it zooms when I want to scroll, or zooms out when I want to zoom in. Is this a known issue that a fix is planned for?

 

Apparently DOGE isn’t killing enough people (literally or metaphorically)

 

2024: Ireland accuses Israel of genocide. Israel ends diplomatic relations with Ireland. Ireland’s membership in the EU protects it from punitive sanctions from Israel’s allies

2025: The UK starts dumping non-EU-compliant goods into the EU customs zone through Ireland, undercutting EU producers. The EU moves to suspend Ireland from the Customs Union. Ireland calls on the EU for diplomatic backup. Germany replies “lol get rekt antisemites”. Ireland is reunited as an economic satellite of the UK, a century or so after independence
