These four movies are good, Barry Lyndon a bit boring. In my opinion, The Shining is the best of the four, or at least the one that is a unique piece.

I'm a big fan of the movie and the Stephen King's book. I consider both to be totally different stories with a somewhat similar plot and characters with the same names and I like them for different reasons.

Regarding the movie Lolita, it's OK, but the depiction of the eponymous character there invalidates somewhat the overall idea: Sue Lyon (the actress) looks too adult for what the book is trying to convey. The character in the book is clearly pre-pubescent and looks like a child.

El 22 de septiembre a las 18:30, en la biblioteca púbica de la avenida San Fermín, 10 de Madrid, el equipo de Dentro del Monolito presentará la antología T.Errores: En el bosque ya estás muerto, de la que forma parte mi relato HÁBLAME DEL BOSQUE. Por allí habrá unos cuantos autores de probada calidad y reconocido prestigio y también iré yo, que hago muy bonito en las mesas de presentación.

Por lo que yo he leído es un «dispara y olvida», no hay colas de reintento ni nada porque es algo a muy bajo nivel. En mi casa, a mi mujer le llegó y a mí no, y los móviles estaban uno al lado del otro (somos de compañías diferentes, pero se supone que eso no debería afectar).

Mi experiencia personal: es un error. @luisgarciareal@social.politicaconciencia.org lo ha comentado muy bien. Te echarás encima un montón de trabajo muy poco (es decir, nada) agradecido. Y más aún si lo que le estás poniendo es un equipo antiguo, porque eso empeorará aún más su experiencia.

@ac that sounds like they will completely block me. The email they send me sounded like they will block me from certain features. Thanks!

Why not 2fa: they claim this is to secure the supply chain. I'm not a supplier - nobody pays me. I provide code as-is. Me enabling 2fa will not magically provide any guarantees about the quality of my code.

It's the wrong solution for an actual problem and I don't want to participate in normalizing this solution.

Oh, I don't think Carmageddon aged badly, I find it still very crazy and very funny. I found it two years ago in an old computer that was about to be decomissioned and it was a hell of a drive.

But the best geriatric game is, of course, Doom.

Louche in French means turbid (literally and figuratively), so this makes very much sense.

Wow! In French, it sounds even more naïve and delicious.

On the radar: shrinking the Emacs C core

Another one of those "I'm Eric Raymond and I'm here to help you" moments:

https://lwn.net/ml/emacs-devel/20230809094655.793FC18A4654@snark.thyrsus.com/

He showed up on the Emacs list wanting to thrash up much of the core editor code for some secret project that he didn't want to tell anybody about... the reaction was about as might have been expected. It did, though, kick off an extensive discussion on how much of the editor should be implemented in Lisp and whether moving C code to Lisp makes sense.

There is no ethical way to use AI art. They are all trained on stolen images and all of them are built for the purpose of deskilling, disempowering and replacing human artists.
