This has implications for Taco Tuesday

My husband brought home marzipan from Germany.

Part one: A grey and white cat lounges on a purple cat tree. His mouth is closed and he looks sleepy

Part two: The grey and white cat is yawning. He looks hungry

Part three: The grey and white cat’s mouth has widened to reveal sharp and pointy teeth, as if to say “feed me, ape, lest I feed on you” Fin.

In three parts

No no, where does God fit into Coily’s plan

DXVK_FRAME_RATE sorry

Screenshot of a terminal: archposix@flere-imsaho:~$ cat /etc/profile.d/00-steam-nvidia.sh # NVidia’s PCIe vendor ID DRI_PRIME=10de export DRI_PRIME PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 PROTON_USE_NTSYNC=1 export PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI PROTON_USE_NTSYNC __GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SIZE=68719476736 export __GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SIZE DXVK_FRAME_RATE=67 export DXVK_FRAME_RATE

DRI_PRIME is the real magic, see docs.mesa3d.org/envvars.html - honored by everything not just steam

DVXK_FRAME_RATE see github.com/doitsujin/dxvk tldr my external monitor is a 60hz tv, so I cap the frame rate to keep the fan speed down

I’ve had issues with various bits of the stack not using nvidia GPU and defaulting to the integrated graphics. If you’re on Steam, check Help -> System Information and scroll down to Video Card. Driver should be listed as either Nvidia or Intel UHD. I had to set some magic env vars…

Boom Mic finally got their SAG card? Good for them!

quick while the government is shut down let’s all switch to metric

Trump says TikTok should be tweaked to become “100% MAGA” Uncertainty reigns as Trump claims China approved TikTok deal.

I say this knowing full well I have approximately zero chance of reaching most people that need to hear it, but

1. Read this: arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

2. If you use TikTok or Shorts, you should look into Loops instead.

Loops is federated. No central control. No MAGA takeover.

Three cables that shouldn't exist - XLR, barrel, and antenna jack to mains.

They arrived.

oh no. OH NO.

I’d ask about pics, but with a name like that deserves a daguerreotype

the "tax the billionaires" political refrain is Good Actually in part because it is a call for the people at the top to actually be constrained by rules informed by the public interest, a virtue that fingerwagging correctives about how much revenue such taxes would *really* generate doesn't address

Absolutely!

My point is that NM’s blue statehouse will be limited protection for the program. ICE can raid daycare, lie about kids’ immigration status, and use the universality of the program as justification.

That doesn’t mean give up or limit eligibility. It means be ready to fight

article’s last paragraph “The governor said both state and federal funds will be used to pay for the initiative”

Given the universal eligibility, it’s a short line to “ICE raids state-sponsored illegal immigrant daycare”

I am still glad NM is trying, and that there is no means testing.

The tubules have to go _somewhere_

Wait it says 120v AC. Is that the manual for North American Danas?

Would totally buy a copy if you can ship to Germany or Ireland.

Dobson was also a huge advocate of corporal punishment for children. As someone who grew up with that, I can tell you the obvious: it doesn’t work! Only made me distrust my parents and want to hit back.

So Rest in [any kind of gross substance you can imagine), James Dobson.

If someone replaces their Gibson Les Paul with a Stratocaster, does that make them transfender?

Thank you!

Sustained aviremia despite anti-retroviral therapy non-adherence in male children after in utero HIV transmission - Nature Medicine After early initiation of anti-retroviral therapy in infants infected with HIV-1 in utero, some children sustain undetectable virus levels, despite treatment interruption, which associated with distin...

The abstract reads less like “we cured AIDS” and more like “one out of 284 HIV infected children stopped regularly taking antivirals (but still did so intermittently) and was undetectable 17 months later”

I’m a total layperson in bioscience. What am I missing?

This isn’t a cure for AIDS, it’s a sometimes cure for HIV* in infants. HIV
and AIDS are not interchangeable. If an infant has developed AIDS it’s highly unlikely antiretrovirals would result in a cure, but rather would cause them to be undetectable. HIV is the virus, AIDS is a condition caused by it
