Glasses
I got new glasses on Friday but I think they're not doing my eyes any favor. The glasses are the same grade as the ones I had previously but looking at anything with em on feels weird, and things further away than arm's reach start looking blurry.
I'm supposed to let my eyes get used to the new glasses, but I don't remember this taking so long.
I am watching a friend livestream Elden Ring; following her fourth (near-immediate) death to Malenia (Blade of Miquella, Who Has Never Known Defeat), she declared, "If my years playing From Software games have taught me anything, it's that if you see a woman sitting by herself in a chair, just leave her alone. LEAVE WOMEN ALONE."
I love video games with positive messaging.

Type 1 diabetes diagnoses are more than 50% greater in children with #COVID19.
βThe age- and sex-adjusted hazard ratio for type 1 diabetes development in 2020-2021 was 1.57 (95% CI, 1.32-1.88; Pβ<β.001) with any COVID-19 diagnosis and 1.69 (95% CI, 1.31-2.18; Pβ<β.001) when only virus-confirmed cases were considered.β
Share this with the people who told you kids couldn't get COVID and it no risk to them because they're young.
Serenity.
Black and white photography emphasizes silence, loneliness, depth.
There is nothing superfluous here.
Just look at this photo.

#pico8 token saving madness
Today's token hunt has gone well. I didn't think I'd see the other side of 8100 never mind 8000.
Newest toy is "fun strings" π
function fun_str(mstr)
local result
for i,str in inext,split(mstr,';')do
-- dbg(str)
local f=split(str)
result=_ENV[deli(f,1)](unpack(f))
end
return result
end
e.g.
fun_str'camera;memset,0x5e00,0,256;fade;cls' -- 2 tokens
#Barcelona, #Meta's Twitter competitor, will be ready by summer.
And lest you believe #ActivityPub integration was just some rumour, think again. In a slide, Meta confirms that Barcelona will indeed be decentralized and will be compatible with Mastodon.
Everyone who thought that AT protocol would win over ActivityPub, and that #Bluesky would kill Mastodon just because a few influencers joined doesn't understand the sheer marketing power and pull that Meta has at its disposal.
But believe me, I'm not exactly cheering on Meta here. Generally, where Meta goes, shenanigans. I simply don't think Meta is capable of releasing a product without dark patterns.
Nevertheless, I don't think the Fediverse is even close to preparing for what will happen once Barcelona starts federating.
We should all be taking Barcelona very seriously.
