the Vodka I built for CM3 managed to pull off three wins in the qualifying round, and so did the Gold Ship that I gave Mile S as a joke, I'm pretty happy with that considering how few prep runs I did for this cup

even if it's not specifically his key to heaven, he's definitely suddenly worried about his legacy and is trying to put his name on things that won't go away after his term ends and/or he dies

my political opinion for the day: Adam Schiff looks like a sleepy mouse who loves to nap in the holes of a big wheel of Swiss cheese

"damn near raised two kids" is such an odd phrase

and I'm pretty sure the only two fixes the white house is going to float are going to be higher tariffs, or a direct relief check that the House ends up blocking

reminds me of the time I went to Kohl's years ago and found fistfuls of these cards scattered around the housewares section

All human beings have a right to an intact body. Say no to circumcision.

This sheet has the same area as the adult foreskin lost to circumcision: 15 square inches of exquisite sensual interface.

sometimes people ask me why I don't like games like Satisfactory or Dyson Sphere Program because as an engineer those kinds of things seem like they'd be up my alley

and it's because I spend all day staring at things like this for work

a complicated heavy steel structure with lots of custom bolted connections

the gabagool miracle @jimpjorps.bsky.social · 2d

spent like half an hour trying to figure out how to design the connections to attach a steel brace to a structure, until I finally decided to try the structural analysis without it hoping I could just not bother

the building apparently is fine without the brace, so laziness wins in the end

well there's levels of craftsmanship besides just aesthetic beauty, like efficiency or clarity or ease of extensibility; I think that feeling you're describing is a pride in craftsmanship even if you're not hand-crafting koans

this essay kind of circles around directly saying it; I really get the feeling that a lot of assisted-coding evangelists don't have any particular love of programming and only care about how many finished products they can push out into the world

every two years we're told this is it, this is the final backstop against the collapse of democracy, we must vote like our lives depend on it, and then when Democrats win, they spend two years sitting on their hands with no sense of urgency until it's time for the next election

the gabagool miracle @jimpjorps.bsky.social · 2d

except we've already seen the Democrats backslide on all those things as well -- they never followed through on their promise to replace Roe v. Wade with legislation, they didn't close Guantanamo or defund ICE, they regularly bulldoze homeless camps and punish rough sleeping, etc etc etc

I think it's because they have this extremely romanticized, abstract view of rural America as where all the strong, happy farmers straight out of central casting live, because none of them have actually interacted with a person outside the managerial/lobbying class in years
