Please keep in mind that the Harris euphoria will not -- cannot -- last nonstop through November. There's a natural ebb and flow to everything. Count on the Trump cult getting part of their vile act together after their initially flummoxed response.

Meanwhile, Big Journalism is going to do everything it possibly can to stir up trouble so it can cover the election, as it loves to do, as blood sport. Issues? Ha.

We will save democracy. The hardest work begins now -- please do what you can.

From the #Kentucky #birding email list I heard of the passing of a local conservation legend Bob Peak, who, with his wife Judy, spent 30 years monitoring and managing hundreds of Eastern Bluebird nest boxes. Here's a 2008 interview with them (starting at 9:30): https://video.ket.org/video/kentucky-dinnerbluebird-loversfurniture-maker-hkzgss/

Nobody wants to read all 900 pages of Trump’s Project 2025 — so we did.

JD's contribution to the ticket is to alienate 30% of eligible voters for no obvious gain but his own weird fetish. That's how you lose a close election, keep up that good work! Exactly what #DonOLDTrump needed.

What blows my mind is how many Black people openly state they want the same things that "whiteness" gives Europeans, ignoring the irrefutable fact that whiteness is subsidized by a permanent underclass that includes people of European descent, but are mostly Black, Brown, Indigenous, and those PoC - Asians, Southeast Asian, Indian, and Arabic who are open about aspiring to white class status.

Cooperative Capitalism works, but Black people blindly cling to the ambition of being an oppressor, not bring the oppressor down.

Let me be clear, a higher seat at the table of a structurally unjust system, diversity among the ruling class, is NOT progress, it is a bribe!

"Black people blindly cling to the ambition of being an oppressor, not bring the oppressor down."

WHEW! that is a word. it's why even though am one of the first Black folks to use twitter am not considered of the Blacktwitter phenomenon because am not a buppie and have been a huge critic of the whole cult of Black capitalism.

way too many just want to do empire, but with a black face. nah.

I've promoted real-world, practical models of cooperative capital, projects that build community equity and capacity for almost 45 years.

It has just as often been Black capitalists seeking to be a big frog in our small Black pond, at any cost, who have worked against me, just as often as these polite white supremacists who insinuate themselves into Black communities, under the pretense of allyship, the better to steer us into prisons of our own chosing.

I love the diverse cultures of Africa and the African diaspora, but I seek the end of the racialized class system promoted by commerce, by law, and custom, not the vain illusion of "racial equality" that can logically exist.

argv minus one mastodon (AP)
Is there a way, in #Rust, to reliably get a pointer to somewhere inside a code section of the executable or DLL that my crate has been linked into?

For example, reading the instruction pointer would do the trick. But, for the sake of portability to other CPU architectures, I would like to avoid using assembly code to do this.

This only has to work on Windows. Portability to other operating systems is not a concern.

Anyone have an idea?

#programming
argv minus one mastodon (AP)
The background for my request is that I need an `HINSTANCE` with which to call `CreateWindow`, and I'm writing a library.

I can get an `HINSTANCE` from `GetModuleHandleEx`, but it needs a pointer inside the executable/DLL in order to look up the module and give me a handle to it.

Halloween special where Bob kills and dismembers Mr Fishoedder and keeps the remains in his basement, with story B having Louise join forces with the demonic presence that lives in the corner of her bedroom ceiling.

People are lazy AF. They won't go to the source. They won't read his book. They post disinformation or lies. People are showing their ass.

News:

The couch fucking story is real. It was in the first edition of his book. Then the couch fucking was removed from follow-on print editions.

I read it. Unbelievable. James Donald Bowman aka Jimmy Hamel aka JD wrote about fucking his couch. Yet, he slut shames millions and will deny Women healthcare and force rape victims to give birth to a rapist baby.

UPDATE on next post: 21 page in and I found this insane fucking admission. 💀
JD had Candy wrappers up his butt and JD used hot dogs as dildos up his butt. He wrote it.

Here's the full page. Page 180.

NASA may have figured out the problem with the helium leak in Starliner thrusters


Still under review... "astronauts still in limbo." They had to do the testing that Boeing probably should have in the first place: to see what happens if the thrusters get too hot.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/25/science/boeing-starliner-issues-root-cause-testing-nasa/index.html
Bob Lai diaspora
And the testing may have helped give engineers a better understanding of the issue’s “root cause”: Heat building up inside the thrusters may be causing Teflon seals to bulge, restricting the flow of propellant.

'Restricting the flow' is not the same as a leak.

And how did this elementary bit of engineering elude everyone for several months, unless it was the result of skimping on costs? (Not unlike the quake-resistant plates on the new span of the SF-Oakland Bay Bridge, which were defective because of lowest-bidder steel from China ... yet the construction firms and CalTrans executives all got bonuses for coming in under budget and finishing early.)

@mpjgregoire @Jgmeadows For the last year of data, yes, but I think the economy has picked up since then. Also, increased immigration drags down the immediate per capita values until immigrants establish themselves.

Well, let's hope that per capita GDP does indeed grow rather than shrink. The trend isn't great at the moment though.

I thought this was an image and didn’t realize it was a video with audio. You just scared the living shit out of me. I had my volume up to eleven!


My kids are grownups in their thirties and doing very well. It’s just sometimes I just want them back home with us all the time. They were such interesting kids to raise . Very different from each other in nearly every way- made for interesting times but I loved that they were each their own person. Now they are pals and one of them is a fabulous aunt to the other’s baby. I just want them to be babies again right now. They win you over and then they leave. Kids. Damn.
It’s hard. But, I do know we focus on when we weren’t at our best and don’t think about the important things we did right.
