Sooooo.… pollen cakes?

usually if you ask experts why an empire fell they’ll say it’s nuanced and multifaceted, so i think it’s kind of cool that with America future historians will get to just say like “oh they took the idiot train to moronsville”

There are many games I would play if remastered, but not one were the gameplay changed. The gameplay is what made them games I would play again.

We have similar numbers on our street and a couple of years back (the collective) we finally got the city to agree to close the street during trick-or-treat hours, after years of denial. SO much better for everyone, kids most of all.

By the year’s end, it is likely that fatalities totaled around 70,000. Terrain was a primary factor in the casualties being lower than in Hiroshima, with the immediate effects mainly confined to the Urumaki Valley.

Eighty years ago, at 11:02am on August 9, 1945, the second and so far last nuclear attack in history struck Nagasaki, Japan. In a few seconds, between 20,000 and 30,000 people died, with an unknown number of people injured; some estimates place it at around 25,000.

I had a great time on Igalia Chats speaking with @bkardell.com and @meyerweb.com about the past, present, and future of W3C. Thanks to @igalia.com for having me on!

Look, these tools are amazing in lots of ways. But if you’re gonna pitch and sell or foist them on the world by saying “This is your PhD level genius expert buddy you can ask things in natural language”, don’t get all pissy when it comically bombs tasks people reasonably think of as trivial.

Zoom and DPI affects the blink maximum. A lot of this is when conversion from/to float/double/fixed-precision occurs.

Infinite Pixels In which I push browser engines to their finite limits using infinite values.

New meyerweb post! I crawled down a #CSS hole to find where it ended. The results were as mind-bending as I could’ve hoped, even though I was sort of hoping they wouldn’t be. Come see what happens to browser engines when you literally push them to infinite lengths! meyerweb.com/eric/thought...

Eighty years ago, at 8:15am on August 6, 1945, the first nuclear attack in history destroyed Hiroshima, Japan. In a few seconds, between 80,000 and 140,000 people died, with another 100,000 or so injured.

So we’re sending migrants without any criminal record, many here legally, to an El Salvadoran prison camp to be violated, and we also transferred a human trafficker who enabled the rape of dozens of girls to a minimum-security prison her conviction would not ordinarily warrant.
