I've grown fond of some french music as of late.

FPV with lower rates = superhuman piloting skills on the parkdeck. I only reduced pitch and roll to like 600 instead of 800 (ACTUAL) and then I stopped flipping the thing in every curve, it's eary.

Wer kennt es nicht? mal eben noch 3 nix-shells einmal bauen solange das notebook noch am Strom hängt ^^. Liftoff/factorio/TerraInvicta sind auch up to date. Morgen dann 12+h Zugfahrt nach Kraków.

cooles normales Land dieses Israel wo ein Minister von unwertem Leben sprechen kann "unserving of life" ohne sofort seinen Posten zu räumen. Sagt viel über die Israelis die das zulassen.

oh well nevermind

recently had the displeasure of having the smells like teen spirit lyrics demystified to me I listened to that song when my english was bad. Now I watched this 20+ years later. I don't like the song anymore it seems a lot flatter than before. Anyway I think it's a good fit for peter pan "here we are now entertain us" could be exactly the guy that tells wendy how every breath in neverland kills an adult and then hyperventilate.

specifically non of the permanent UNSC members even tried to push a resolution that would then fail on a veto ... Iran just got stripped of the CWC protections, illegally so if you ask me and people should be punished over it no matter what you think about the butchers in Teheran. Rule of law can't be paused because you don't like the victim.

So today I learned that while Sadam was busy murdering Iranians, the USSR sold weapons, the UK sold dual use tech, Germany sold chemical weapons precursers (schedule I/II not just isoprop), France sold weapons, China sold weapons to both sides. Just remember that next time you pretend that the rules are the same for everyone. Or when China and Russia pretend they are morally superior to the USA. They are all insufferable treacherous non-entities.

So some days Youtube just serves me weird music in the suggestions, it's when it has a good day.

So what do Armenia, Iran, Albania, and Japan have in common?

the punchline is of course that Iran and Albania owe Japan for distracting the USA with a salvo of ICBM directed at a strike group in the middle east while Armenia is still trying to negotiate a ceasefire with the correct territory.

2nd time this month ... I start with a frank kleplaki c&c OST/autoplay and 5 tracks in I think "oh this is nice" only to when I look up what's playing to be greeted by some "we love everything that is Wehrmacht equipment or symbolism with a fetish like passion" symbolism... think anime girls in nazi tanks, an iron cross in the channel name, and a comment section full of Hell let loose players with a certain erm flavor. W T F

pretty sure I won't make it to 31337 *shrug* so there is that.

So I asked for a recipe for a Molotov cocktail themed long drink (I don't like shots so the finish recipe is out even though it qualifies as the original) ... the word shuffler produced a workable recipe together with pictures that suggest the "long drink" part got lost in translation.

shame really, I mean I don't know shit about latvian politics but my general impression is women make better prime ministers. Too bad they seem to be stepping down for stupid reasons as of late.

Would love to get the perspective of some latvians on the topic. Feel free to share.

I think the funny part about this whole "AI" stuff especially the impressive openclaw-based failure modes is that it is self inflicted, just because we now have the tools to let anyone administer the server isn't a good reason to let the village idiot do it. You wouldn't hand the village idiot an armored brigade and a copy of Klausewitz "About War" as a manual and tell them to conquer your neighbor ... though if russia did that that would explain so much.

This is me trying to speak polish ... alas the Poles are very tolerant people and keep offering me bigos and pierogi instead.
