It makes me chuckle that the container stacks by themselves look like server racks

This is an incredible work of art - I love it so much (although my browser does not, at certain points in the game ๐Ÿ˜‚)

An LGBTQ+ pride flag formatted in the layout of the SMPTE "color bars" test pattern used for broadcast television. The first set of columns use the colors of the gay pride flag, with the addition of the original SMPTE color on the final column. The second set of columns contains two pride flags - the pansexual flag horizontally, and the asexual flag flipped and horizontal. The final set of columns contains the three colors of the transgender flag and the two POC-inclusive colors, followed by the original bar gradient from the SMPTE ECR-1-1978 pattern.

since it's the last day of pride month I figured I'd at least make one thing for it...

For the people "close" to me, it's mostly (willful) ignorance, perhaps fueled by a touch of nostalgia ("I watched this with my family")

Personally, I get a more interesting touch of that nostalgia hit from Yuri On Ice, but I'm probably just a hopeless weeb

Paging all Radio Curious Hackers

I've posed my slides and linked to the video recording from my talk "Paging All Radio Curious Hackers!" at @districtcon.bsky.social Year 1 just now at k3xec.com/paging-all-r...

All in all, the session was great - It was truly humbling to see so many folks interested in hearing me talk about radios.

Boromir from THE LORD OF THE RINGS, holding The One Ring. He thought he could use it for good, but everything done with the ring turns to evil. He was one of the mightiest warriors of middle earth, and he could not resist its powers. Others even mightier fell to the ring. Do you think you are stronger than them? The One Ring is generative AI.

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is.

GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart.

But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

I Am An AI Hater I am an AI hater. This is considered rude, but I do not care, because I am a hater.

I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.

They can set their own "overriding" labels, sure, but that's kind of a big ask (and if their base image sets them as labels, they *have* to because that code above will overwrite any annotations with same-key labels, which is probably backwards ๐Ÿ™ˆ).

If I'm reading it correctly, tangled.org/evan.jarrett... is where you're "pulling up" labels into annotations; is that accurate? The biggest issue I still see here is that labels are inherited, so any (potentially even base) image setting one of these labels will then "bleed" into all images FROM ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

23.12.2025 09:17 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Labels have *really* horrid inheritance behavior which will be even worse for this specific use case -- I'd suggest swapping to OCI annotations on the manifest or index instead. ๐Ÿ˜…
