... I checked, it's def digital art and not AI, he's a dude on Reddit that slides through my feed every now and then and now I cant find him to credit him, but he's been making stuff for a long time now... sigh, I hate that I feel the need to premptively state something is not AI now, it's fucking gloomy man.
Looks like his pseudonym is 5ner or fivener? Some really nice pixel art!
"AI!" is the modern equivalent of "That's 'shopped!"

The decaying Atlantic Seafood Sauce Company (1990–2001) has tormented St Mary's, Newfoundland with rotting fish smells for decades. Now the front wall has fallen off.

My mother was a 12 yr old in the same neighbourhood in 1943.
So this hews close to home for me. I hope it won't for you in the end.

@joost anne frank huis was our first stop in amsterdam. heartbreaking and necessary to learn history, though we are still trying hard to repeat it here. *sigh*
@tweedlydo the hard learning for us in the NL during and after WWII was: the evil people are also us. Collaborators.
Goed and Fout were the moral dichotomy afterwards.
But unfortunately a lot of people were in the gray.
The US has not experienced this for a long long time.
It's hard to feel national pride when it's that neighbour in your street informing the Gestapo. :-(

@joost living in an age of hyper-misinformation/disinformation also really complicates things. really feeling like we’re living in a powder keg right now. helicopters were audible until my brain finally gave up around 2am.
@tweedlydo I'll say.
It looks like you're in Minnesota. :-(
I don't know what to say. Apart from: we've been there. But that's 80 yrs ago.
Maybe the upside of the internet is that the well meaning mass of people can coördinate and mobilise.

Its over. I shipped it off to the Planning Officer in advance of the Committee meeting on Monday. If all goes well, then it'll be shipped out to 2 external reviewers as early as Tuesday (20th Jan 2026). Thereafter we twiddle thumbs for 5 weeks or so.
Congrats!
Woot! Way to go Niti!

This has been such a long time coming. I know how much you agonized over this, how much effort you poured into it. And now you sit back and wait. Congrats!
Thank you for letting us accompany you on this journey.

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy!!! I was hoping for this when I saw that you had resurfaced!
@BennyTheIcepick Thank you for your kind words which totally soothe my biggest insecurities for this thesis: that I was too old (60 in March) and I'd taken too long (started Fall 2019).
On the other hand your words give me space to reflect on this painpoint and recognize that a) I guess I'd always known that the journey wouldn't be short or easy for me at my age - too much to unlearn, and b) I don't know if it could have happened any earlier, when I look back at the journey. Regardless, what I shipped now I am *proud* to put my name on.
Remember I had to change supervisors in Fall 2024 after years of flailing? I was deemed a failure who couldn't write. (our theses need minimum 2 published peer reviewed articles and I had zero as late as Jan 2025).
Rambling here but I guess this will all be part of the decompression of the past couple of years in particular.
Thank you for reading

King penguin wading in a small creek at La Reserva Natural Pingüino Rey on the island of Tierra del Fuego in Chile, with the steam bank in the background with various foliage, including grass.
I'm on day 2 of my Tierra del Fuego Patagonia cycling adventure. Today took me past La Reserva Natural Pingüino Rey, the only King Penguin colony in Chile. I'd debatedb going out not and thought "how often can I ride a bike to see penguins", so yeah bikes the reservation and heck yeah, it was a pretty good deal for like $20 equivalent in US funds. The test of the day was filled with the famous Patagonia wind, mostly blowing as a headwind or an unhelpful side wind, but hey, I knew what I was getting into so no complaints, really.

A hall that may or may not be empty and unlit. The initial appearance is abandoned: a bare, dismal plaster wall with a hole where an electrical outlet once was and a fading rectangle where a picture once hung. Also on the wall is a large arched window, revealing a deep indigo night sky. A pipe hangs from the ceiling, while the floor is covered by a dull reddish-orange carpet. Hovering above the floor is a glowing yellow orb, leaving a trail of yellow light behind it. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".
ooooh

Map with coloured dots and tracks showing asteroids from Mercury to the Kuiper Belt
"This map shows the orbits of more than 18000 asteroids in the solar system. This includes everything we know of that’s over 10km in diameter - about 10000 asteroids - as well as 8000 randomized objects of unknown size. Each asteroid is shown at its position on New Years’ Eve 1999, colored by type of asteroid."

a TRRS and a TRS ⅛" audio plug held together with a cable tie with their channels connected by solder bridges
Where did you get a photo of my grandfather's handiwork?
Not kidding. After he passed away and we were cleaning the house up when my grandma moved into an apartment, we found power strips in the garage rafters with bare wires stuck into the sockets and wrapped up with electrical tape. A miracle he was never electrocuted or started a fire (that we know of).

"summing module, build 0.0.1a"
Any proper audiophile does this for optimal metal-on-metal contact between connectors.
@bencmeissner my grandfather did that too, but with matchsticks to hold in the bare wires.
It took me a couple of views to realize that one plug is a TRRS and the other is a TRS
