Sinopsis:

Bran tuvo una adolescencia complicada, y su vida adulta no es mejor. Una sucesión de pérdidas familiares, una gran cicatriz en la cara y sus circunstancias personales han forjado en ella una personalidad esquiva.

Y como si fuera una maldición añadida, la protagonista hereda y debe hacerse cargo de una casa familiar, epicentro de buena parte de las desgracias que se abatieron sobre sus seres queridos.

Una visita a la enmohecida y arruinada vivienda, ubicada en un pequeño pueblo madrileño, sumergirá a Bran en una travesía angustiante por túneles oscuros, estancias claustrofóbicas y seres terroríficos.

    Ayn Rand, Rand Paul and Paul Ryan walk into a bar. The bartender serves them tainted alcohol because there are no regulations. They die.

    When I was a child I didn’t know who I was. I knew who everyone told me to be, a good little Jewish boy who would grow up to be a good Jewish man. I built that boy out of mud with my hands and shaped him into the form others expected. On his forehead I wrote אמת, truth, hoping it would live a truth I didn’t understand.

    I wrote a name of God on a piece of paper and placed it into his mouth and he lived. For 35 years he walked in my place, living a false life with my breath.

    One day I could suffocate no longer and needed to die or take my breath back. In a moment of strength I removed the aleph from his head and he fell apart. He did not die as his forehead now read, for he was never alive.

    I didn’t realize how much mud had accumulated over the years. How deep the shame was, how heavy the long dried pieces of dirt were. My hands, now torn and bleeding from breaking my golem apart, finally found the long forgotten paper.

    I see the name I wrote was my own.

        BULO. Otra vez el BULO del ahorro fiscal "a cada madrileño".

        Es mentira. Para sacar esa cifra hacen la MEDIA, sumando los 1.259 millones que se ahorran 22.185 altos patrimonios en una año (53.000€ en un solo año) y lo suman al 0,5% del IRPF que se ahorra un currito y sacan la media.

                  Higher wages

                  Lefty cartoon by B Deutsch and F Young patreon.com/barry 

CEO walking down the street talking on his cell phone: i’ve tried everything to find new workers. I’ve gone to job fairs. offered them T-shirts for applying.

Guy on the street: did you offer higher wages?

CEO continuing his phone call: I can’t fill these jobs. I even got the government to throw people off unemployment. nothing works.

Woman on Bike: have you tried offering higher wages?

CEO: i’m offering unpredictable schedules, minimal benefits, and nine dollars an hour and they still don’t want my jobs?

Little girl playing hopscotch: you should offer higher wages 

CEO as he passes two people on the street, holding signs that say higher wages:  i’ve tried everything they just don’t want to work. hello governor, can we arrest people for being unemployed?

down at the very bottom of the comic the CEO says: i’d love to pay higher wages, but we don’t have the money. I had to get by on only a $38 million salary this year!

                          Back in 2007, I was the one who packed their things and left. I left a home, 15+ years of shared work, a dog, a cat, and a boy (well, I didn't really literaly left the boy behind, of course, he's still a part of my life). It was painful, but it also looked like a new open threshold. I want to think that I left with respect for the other part, though not everybody agrees. At least, I was sincere to myself, as my life needed a new path. Not everybody understood why I took my decision but I had no other option.

                          You've probably heard that life goes on and most changes are for the best and what not. I won't repeat that.

                          I just wish you the best for this new, unfathomable, life. Your friends and other people that loves you are there.

That coincidence doesn't have any connection to a clock's function as a tool. It's not doing the thing you think clocks do. It's not right about the time any more than a photo of a clock is. Or a description of a clock in a book. A stopped clock isn't a time keeping device. It's something else, that's merely shaped like a time keeping device.

                                                                LLMs aren't thinking. They aren't learning, understanding, or remembering. They're doing something else, that is merely shaped like thinking. They are a stopped clock, and they are always wrong.

"Sure!" says Alessandro "For this week's flower share I brought an apple blossom! Delicate, simple in form, modest and subtly charming". They are all admiring the flower at Alessandro's feet. "Pretty" says one. "Beautiful specimen!" continues the first crow, "One of my favourites. Thank you for sharing! Who'd like to go nex–" they are interrupted by a loud clearing of a throat. "AHEM".

"Sure!" says Alessandro "For this week's flower share I brought an apple blossom! Delicate, simple in form, modest and subtly charming". They are all admiring the flower at Alessandro's feet. "Pretty" says one. "Beautiful specimen!" continues the first crow, "One of my favourites. Thank you for sharing! Who'd like to go nex–" they are interrupted by a loud clearing of a throat. "AHEM".

If you do not enable this option, you can get around the annoying anime girl.

                                                                                  Presumably you could use the links2 user-agent in any other browser. I suppose this is true for lynx as well.

                                                                                  > Wget/1.25.0

"If we can imagine absolute Cyberpunk dystopia with ease but not the opposite, it's because we don't have enough popular stories yet which would showcase that believable alternative."

                                                                                            I understand that the oversimplification "it happens in Italy, so it has to be the mafia" sounds a bit insulting, but maybe the mystery-craving in us recognize a pattern so much read and seen in movies. Your brilliant phrase "And of course, I’ve left out the worst parts of the story" also add a lot of neo-noir vibes to the story 😀

                                                                                                  She did not die in a gas chamber or in a death camp. She died in a temporary' detention center for the mass deportations which preceded the death camps.
                                                                                                  She was in that camp because a patriotic neighbor ratted her out to the German deportation force. She died, not of a bullet to the back of the head or choking on gas, but of typhus. She contracted typhus because the Nazis couldn't realistically deport people at the rate they wanted to, because before the death camps their infrastructure couldn't handle the sudden influx of ethnic minorities they had decided to imprison, and because they didn't care about the consequences of that so their deportation detention centers were unhygienic and prisoners were underfed and overcrowded.

                                                                                                  And she was picked up by the deportation force not because she was an illegal citizen but because, just like the US is doing with asylum seekers, she was part of a formerly recognized class of citizens who were legally redefined to lack citizenship by a new administration.

                                                                                                  Anne Frank is exactly like the children who have already died in the United State's detention camps. Exactly. Down to the very last detail. There. Is. Not. A.
                                                                                                  Single. Difference.

                                                                                                  So unless you want to fucking tell me that Anne goddamn Frank was not a victim of the Holocaust, y'all can shut the fuck up with that "stop making concentration camp comparisons, you're diminishing the suffering of the Holocaust" bullshit.

                                                                                                  Its also worth noting that her family TRIED to flee to the US and was denied. She was in that camp partly because the US refused to let her refugee family immigrate.

PixelFed and Instagram are not competitors.

The old platforms are social media. They are entertainment platforms that nominally connect you to friends. But their actual customers are advertisers and entertainers (influencers?)

The new federated platforms are social networking. They're community-owned and operated for the sole purpose of serving a community. They don't have customers, they have members. They are collaborative efforts run by individuals and not-for-profits.

I use read-only snapshots every day and RAID 0 and 1 configurations in some places without a hassle.

                                                                                                            I even had a (known unreliable and crash-prone) RAID 6 configuration using 4 USB thumb drives that had a long life of continuous mp3 transcoding. Finally, the USB hub died, and then I decomissioned the ugly monster (it was mostly for testing).

                                                                                                            Maybe I'm lucky (I'm not).

                                                                                                            While undeniably fantastic, I've also had this problem with ZFS: its architecture and terminology have always sounded too alien for the old UNIX whitebeard in me.

A friend gave it to me, as it was getting dust in a closet. I love this little vermin. Extremely portable and cute, with a surprisingly acceptable keyboard. It's the one where I write my fiction in when I'm out there writing in parks, cafes or writer meetings.

A friend of mine, of italian origin, called it a Tarantola or Tarentola when he saw one, if I recall correctly (which surprised me, because in Spanish, a Tarántula, sounding very similarly, is a very different kind of creature).

                                                                                                                                                          In Spanish these insectivorous geckos are called Salamanquesas or Saltarrostros (which means "jump to the face", which is an activity they are famous for not doing). It's said that they bring good luck.

They are both on iCloud. I got a look at one of the bounce messages today - Apple is interpreting my graylist 421 temp fail status code as a permanent failure.

                                                                                                                                                                  The problem showed up now because Apple started using a new netblock. I had the old block whitelisted so graylisting didn't get invoked. Whitelisting the new block fixes it for now, until they change addresses again.

                                                                                                                                                                  But really, Apple should OBEY THE FUCKING RFC.

I usually joke about "when you go to a BK as a kid, it's a victory, but when you do as an adult, it's a defeat".

                                                                                                                                                                      I'm here right now. Around me are rioting kids with tired-looking parents, a youngster wireless-speaking cheerly while eating, lonely men rougly of my age dressed with worn-out suits and ties munching silently, a woman that looks like she's homeless (even holding a rusty supermarket cart full of bags and unrecognizable things), two well-dressed boys shouting about the problem with immigrants (probably from an expensive private school nearby) and a stunningly beautiful girl drinking a soda that looks otherwordly out of place here (like Helen when discovered on top of Troy's battlements by the greek soldier).

                                                                                                                                                                      There's something wonderful about an upgrade-process so boring that you can accidentally forget you did it.

                                                                                                                                                                        Maybe you want a copy of all your honks sent somewhere else. Maybe another network. This is ridiculous, because what else is there, but nevertheless. There's a new user option to set a trigger URL.

                                                                                                                                                                        When set, whenever you honk a honk, it gets POSTed in JSON to the trigger URL. It's not the ActivityPub representation, but the internal format. If you want the AP, just follow yourself. It's basically a push version of the existing API.
