Maybe I am just old, but black tools and black radios and black bags inside other black bags with black things inside those black bags is NUTs. I mean, it's trendy among first responders and the "bros" but WE ARE NOT INVADING AFGHANISTAN IN TACTICAL BLACK AND FAST ROPING FROM HELICOPTERS, people. We're trying to find stuff fast. YOU WANT TO SEE YOUR STUFF. Stupid CAMO and all black tacti-cool stuff is... stupid. #random #rant

Two weeks ago I ranted a bit about PHP composer. So I wrote about it and vented. Read how my evening went: https://wesley.schwengle.net/article/i-just-wanted-php-8-2-composer-had-other-ideas-12e3/ Never thought docker was gonna be a used to scaffold a project, but why not? #php #laravel #livewire #perl #scaffolding #rant #vent

@VegaHarmonia@fedi.rubedo.gay I was just flabberghasted amidst the dark prospect on "AIslop" in Healthcare… Damn I'm glad I don't work for [REDACTED] which are now part of [REDACTED] which shove all that "#AI" garbage whilst the CEO co-funds the NSAfD... #DEpol #Healthcare #rant #venting

Okay, ich muss mal Luft ablassen! Wie konnte es nur erlaubt werden, dass eine Schar von Schwurbler*innen, Esoteriker*innen und andere selbsternannten Wal-Expertinnen, an diesem armen Tier nun rummachen dürfen?! Und die einzige Expertin aus Hawaii, die Ahnung hatte, haben sie vergrault, weil sie diese Shit-Show nicht mitmachen wollte? Das ist alles so absurd und dilettantisch, was da gerade passiert! Und wir haben nichts besseres zu bieten, um diesem Wal zu helfen, als diese Selbstdarsteller*innen-Truppe? Mir tut dieses Tier einfach nur leid, dass es so gequält wird, weil Leute sich mit ihm über Instagram wichtig machen wollen! #rant #wal

So, I've been seriously looking into purchasing a #bansuri. Thanks to reviews from my favorite artist, Iftekharul Anam, I've found a flute maker called Labu Flutes. Their prices are more affordable $65 for an E bass rather than $265 from Anubodh or $439.75 from Punam). Shipping to Canada is either $50 or $85 though, depending on shipping method you choose, and the only sound samples I've been able to find are from Anam's reviews of their Signature series. I've been able to contact them through WhatsApp of all things, but finding sound samples to express the tonal differences between their Signature and Bold lines has been a nightmare. Labu says there are no sound samples of their other flute lines. Don't think Anam would be using Labu instruments in his stuff though if they weren't professional quality. Is it really this hard to find something both affordable and of good quality that I can get shipped to the Western world? Blah! The fact they're so cheap in India makes me sad. If you were to pay Punam's Western world price in Rupees, it'd be over 37,000. Normally, you pay a couple thousand, if I'm not mistaken. Wish this market weren't so annoyingly difficult to traverse. Who in India wants to send me a bansuri? I'd pay you back LOL. Western prices are stupid. #Rant

Używanie najróżniejszych Chatów GPT, Claudów i innych w urzędach to plaga. Cały czas spotykam się z pismami, w których urzędnicy powołują się na nieistniejące przepisy, albo zamieszczają argumenty z dupy. To po prostu widać, zwłaszcza jak ktoś przez dwa lata wysyła mi pisma, które składają się z jednego zdania, z czterema błędami ortograficznymi, ale przynajmniej z odpowiedzią, a potem odkrywa chat gpt i nagle pisze porównania homeryckie działek budowlanych. Ale do brzegu. Zastanawiam się jak dużo danych osobowych szarych ludzi wypłynęło w celu trenowania SI. Jak dużo poufnych informacji zostało podanych. Księgi wieczyste, pesele, informacje zastrzeżone i poufne. Adresy, nazwiska, historie własności, spory i uzgodnienia. Trochę mnie to przeraża. A wszystko przez to, że Tereska z urzędu miasta odkryła pomoc, dzięki której już w ogóle nie musi myśleć. #rant #SI #AI #chatgpt #prywatność #privacy

People will stand in long queues for gas and petrol but still not switch off their vehicles at traffic light stop. I fail to understand this #Indian mindset. #rant

It has come to my attn that there are still ppl claiming that pagans who work w Lilith are "culturally appropriating" her from Judaism. Let me be super direct. Fk off. Lilith was a Sumerian demon / goddess before she was ever roped into partnering w Adam, the fking judeochristian poster child for "nice guys." She predates ur fking liar god's "I made this" bedtime stories. By a lot. A lot a lot. But okay, what I am wrong? (I'm not but okay let's pretend.) Lilith told Adam to fk off for demanding dominance. She told the angels who tried begging and threatening her to return to fk off. And when ur liar god threatened her children / people, Lilith didn't blink. She said "Try it and I'll end urs too, ahole." And ur god scurried away w his tail between his legs. If u think Lilith has any loyalty to judeochristian religion, u prob need to at LEAST go read the parts of your bible your religious leaders left out. And then? Go read up on Lilith and put some respect on her fking name, okie? Byeeeee. #Religion #Judaism #Christianity #Christian #Judeochristian #Pagan #Wiccan #Revisionist #Demoness #Rant

I had to collect surveillance videos from various of private houses and businesses a lot recently. I came across a variety of NVRs many of which were a challenge for my nerves and mental health. Example 1: Exporting a 15 minute sequence of 2 cameras. After 1.5 hrs the status display switched from 0% to 1%. Example 2: This specific NVR allowed only to set a starting time for the export. The end time was chosen _randomly_ by the NVR itself. Sometimes 2 minutes, sometimes 1 hour after the start time. The 6 hour span which should be exported was done for 3 cameras in ~15-20 chunks each. I don't know what the developers of such systems were up to ... but while doing the video exports I had thoughts about flogging them in public. #rant #nvr #videosurveillance
