Saving a figure after invoking pyplot.show() results in an empty file The following example code generates a simple plot, then saves it to 'fig1.pdf', then displays it, then saves it again to 'fig2.pdf'. The first image looks as expected, but the second one is blank (

Lehrer's performance is sampled in the track "Dope Peddler" by U.S. rapper 2 Chainz on his 2012 album Based on a T.R.U. Story, (2) In 2013, Lehrer said he was "very proud" to have his 60-year-old song sampled. His response to the request to use the song was "As sole copyright owner of 'The Old Dope Peddler', I grant you motherfuckers permission to do this. Please give my regards to Mr. Chainz, or may I call him 2?" [21

Just realized I haven’t seen anyone post the Tom Lehrer-2 Chainz letter yet today.

How To Steal Cars (Old) : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive How To Steal Cars Documentary.Yup, you read that right, showing you how to steal a car so you don't steal cars........probably circa late 70's.

This video, which features 45 minutes of a dude showing you how to break into cars, has a guy sternly telling you in the intro and outro to NOT break into cars. I have literally no reason to stream this but I needed to share this badly archive.org/details/how-...

Academic moment

Every day that Tumbleweed is making my life harder I am reminded that NixOS exists and I still have the config from that same laptop.

It's calling to me like the fucking green goblin's mask

Panel 1: Shen, cloaked in shadow due to the contrast from the light outside, is kicking a door in so violently that it flies off the hinges. Only his eyes are visible in the shadow. Panel 2: A person as sitting at a laptop, holding a gaming controller connected to it. They have messy hair and dark shadows under their eyes, and are wearing a sweatshirt and sweatpants. Around them are scattered energy drink containers, ramen rontainers, chip bags, and and napkins. There's also a floor mattress. This person is clearly a shut-in. Panel 3: Shen, still mostly cloaked in shadow, points forward at them with a severe expression on his face, saying "you thought you could escape pride month?" Panel 4: Confetti falls as the shut-in (still in sweatshirt/sweatpants), is paraded through the streets on a stage atop a colorful car, as crowds cheer on both sides. Above them are two drones hovering in the air carrying a banner. The banner has the pride flat on it and arrows pointing down at them.

We had a tool for that: It was called "BAKED LIGHTING" -"Yes please give me SLIGHTLY better visuals.

i have no idea who originally made this but i feel it in my bones

only when doing the right thing and splitting the codebase into multiple files i realize how many random-ass outside variables were used in all these functions this is ridiculous why does python lets us to it in the first place.

cropped screenshot from yakuza 5 (2012) of Taiga Saejima having a conversation with celebrity chef Tatsuya Kawagoe (who exists in real life) SAEJIMA: So, cooking is a combination of ingredients? I'll try remembering that when I eat.

There's a random conference happening rn I get to go in and have free food this is great.

Cyberpumkin time

so fun fact if you lose .env file for immich and then try to restore a backup db make sure you are restoring a right db because I have been restoring `immich_db` for the last hour and then wandering why is the `immich` is empty and has no users.

Andor really is andoring huh

The singular unfortunate effect of getting really into Discworld at a young age is that I formed a Certain Impression about the purpose of footnotes, and now I'm entering academia and it is still my true and firm belief that the footnotes are for being funny and NOTHING else.

@mattcameron.bsky.social something amusing I thought might give you a moment of respite.

One of my favorite anecdotes about the Godfather is that actual mobsters didn’t talk like that until they saw the Godfather. And then they did.
