So, time for an #introduction
I am a software engineer working on #Linux and lately also #Android system and security tools in the German automotive industry. When I am not #hiking in the Alps, you might find me ranting about terrible kernel behavior and the mess that Android is under it's hood.
Privately I can geek out about everything from military technology to trains. I am political far left, but certainly not a tankie and will always #StandWithUkaine
Thank you #hachyderm for welcoming me.

Justin Trudeau avoids questions about his future after cabinet overhaul

After the first meeting of his new cabinet, Trudeau briefly spoke with reporters, but did not address questions about whether he will stay or whether he will prorogue parliament.

To placate Mr. Trump, Republicans were considering a handshake deal — which would lack the force of law — in which they would promise to raise the borrowing cap early next year by $1.5 trillion as part of a broad tax cut measure, and to compensate for the additional debt that would add by slashing future government spending by $2.5 trillion.

heads-up for this week's #monsterdon of Snowbeast (1977): the version on Tubi is extremely AI upscaled and also the wrong aspect ratio. Here it is against the Blu-ray and the version on Plex free streaming:
Tubi screencap, everything is extremely smooth and clean and the wrong aspect ratio Plex free streaming screencap, 4:3 and seems to be SD but at least not a headache-inducing sin against the human visual cortex
Blu-ray HD screencap, in 4:3 and looking fine

One time I talked to an acquaintance about why she hadn’t tried the best taco truck that I love that is literally next to her house. She was like ‘I’m from the Midwest, flavor is just not for me, I know I won’t appreciate it’ and I laughed so much and I appreciated her self-awareness.

I then interviewed her about her fear of flavor and grease in an ethnographic exercise. I told everyone back home about it, and it was like telling them about aliens.

She then told me about how her favorite taco restaurant is this place I would totally never go to, and I finally understood why those places exist. Something for everyone I guess.

She said ‘the lack of flavor is just very comforting for me’ and I was so amazed to hear that, because everyone I’d met til then is a flavor maximalist

Sometimes my wife and I talk about how it must be weird to others that we sort of expect every single meal we eat (whether it’s food we cook or food we buy) to be incredible.

I know it sounds like an exhausting way to live, but where we are from (Singapore / Malaysia), eating poor quality food is seen as a waste of time, stomach space and soul

I think in that part of the world you have to go out of your way to find food that hasn’t been prepared with great care and love, and that tastes ‘bad’

One of the things my elders were exceptionally proud of me for: she knows how to select good fish, dried mushrooms, and she has great taste in food

People who don’t care about food are treated with extreme suspicion in my culture, almost like.. they are aliens you can’t communicate with.

I was surprised to learn that in other cultures, people who care too much about food are perceived to be odd

Users of Zelle have no recourse when there is fraud on their accounts compared to debit or credit card fraud. This is an egregious situation that’s cost consumers $870M since 2017.

The banks behind it are finally being sued by the CFTB, just in time for that agency to be defanged after the government transition.
