@stux My cat knows today is #caturday. She decided to come to bed just after midnight local time and woke me by walking on me. Then she woke me again for breakfast when she decided it was time. "Look, this is my day of the week. Ok, that's every day. But especially today."

@stux Here is a #Caturday kitty cleaning himself, getting pretty for a night of lounging and sleeping, then eating, and then more lounging and sleeping.

Brilliant. A look at how misinformed the 'Stable Genious' that brags he knows more than experts,
is surprised by common knowledge, shown trying to deflect from his ignorance.

It's not ideal and a lot more needs to be done, but Republicans are the hold up. Particularly Mitch McConnell.

This is exactly the type of case that could have benefited from the activation of the Defense Production Act.

When the Select Committee on the COVID-19 Disaster gets underway next year in the Biden administration, all of these deadly missteps will come to light. And the former AG Barr won't be able to cover it up. #VoteBlue

In the early days of the pandemic, the U.S. government turned down an offer to manufacture millions of N95 masks in America:

Profits, really, but yeah.

I'm taking a break from my light project.

I'm fairly disappointed in the CIEXYZ colour sensors I've tried so far. None of them will output correct XYZ colours without correction matrices. The sensor I'm currently using does come factory calibrated, but clearly not precisely enough, because when I try to capture saturated primary colours, the calibrated output errors out because it's out of range... which shouldn't be possible in the CIEXYZ colour space...

My doctor says I need to contact NAV, the Norwegian welfare agency, to get something that we call Work Clarification Benefits, a kind of benefit you receive with the intent of them helping you fit into the workforce.

I don't want a fucking 9-to-5 job. I want the freedom to create good stuff.

I'd gladly work on something like Ardour or Krita if it could sustain me. I have skills within the fields of digital signal processing and image processing that could be put to good use there.

Physicians don’t think it’s safe for people to gather in DC, just like everywhere else with a lot of potential for COVID spread.

But leave it to Mitch McConnell to risk it to try and confirm a couple of unqualified Trump nominees. #voteblue
