in other news, if you like email clients in your terminal, aerc is pretty nifty:

to filter email with sieve and roundcube I'm annoyed to admit that a generative language model helped me with this one. Don't worry, I'm more disappointed in myself than you are....

look, see, right here, original content in your FACE

Screenshot of a ChatGPT session after I used to figure out Dovecot Sieve filters. Me: i'm really annoyed that this was helpful ChatGPT said: That's fair — clarity that arrives after frustration can be the most frustrating kind. But hey, I’m glad it was helpful anyway, even if it made you grind your teeth a bit. If you want, I can help turn that annoyance into some tidy, modular Sieve code that makes your future self grateful. Or I can just stand here and let you glare at the keyboard. Either way, I’ve got your back.

Threaded #39: The best way to remove dried tyre sealant stains There are several products that are intended to get stubborn sealant stains off frames, components and clothing, but our testing produced a clear winner.

jeez absolutely eerie timing from escape collective

also i found a shard of glass in one of the knobs, good job sealant

Photo of old sealant gobs piled on a paper towel. They're a gross dirty beige color and they look wet and stringy and rubbery and gross.

aaaaand definitely not me spending an hour and a half peeling old sealant out of my tire before looking at the tread, which is bald

yessssss it is not hono's fault that it was easier to add a freaking http endpoint than a cli script for a *one-line operation*, hono is blameless in this

Third-person view of my character looking at a large cloud of sand approaching from 3km away, behind rocky outcroppings and base buildings in the distance

My character stands in roughly the same place but the cloud is much closer, taking up most of the sky

The cloud is almost directly overhead. My character has raised an arm to protect her face.

My character looks in the opposite direction as the sandstorm retreats into the distance, again behind rocky outcroppings and settlements

the dynamic desert stuff that happens in #duneAwakening is neat. it's very neat.

Remedy's next big game is being made for less money, but can still be great, CEO says The head of the studio behind Alan Wake and Control talks to Game File about Remedy's survival, a key cancellation, and getting game devs to think more about game business (but not too much!)

NEW: Remedy's next big game, Control 2, will be developed with a smaller budget than Alan Wake II

It's part of a refined approach at Remedy, as the studio learns from some recent harsh lessons

Remedy's CEO tells me: "We are moving from surviving to succeeding.”
