USpol: good trans news 

Some good trans news: We just helped defeat a local measure in San Diego County trying to ban trans youth in sports!

So many people came out to oppose the measure and stand up for trans kids, and thousands of e-comments opposing the item. There are people who see us right now and will stand up for us. More and more people are putting their own comfort and necks on the line for trans people and especially trans kids.

More and more, I genuinely believe we can win, especially in local areas.

@roadriverrail yea, I wouldn't call it "objectively good" either, I would say I had a fun time watching it

ooh I just had a horrible idea.

So Rust has an extension called "cargo-mommy" which makes the compiler act like a mommy-domme when you compile stuff, right?
github.com/Gankra/cargo-mommy

and recently I've been hacking on some old Microsoft Agent systems. What if I combined the two?

You hit compile, there's a few errors, and then suddenly, you see her...

anyway, PSA for austrian transfems who didn't change their name in ÖBBs system i guess:
ÖBB doesn't allow you to change your name easily
you can do that anyway if you open devtools, find the input element for the first name, and just remove "disabled="""
you can just click save and... it saves correctly.

for me, hacking on graphics stuff always ends up with me getting absolutely unexpected results that are mighty pretty. this isn’t even close to what I wanted, but the pattern is really cool…

now, more than ever, i want you to know that if you want to be trans you can just, be trans, no matter what the government says

I had off by one errors in two directions! but sadly they didn't cancel each other out.

note to self: before you try to CALL a function, make sure you have a stack first.

We all know about the Pioneer Plaque and Voyager’s Golden Record but have you seen the ‘Water Words’ on the Europa Clipper. It is a plate made of tantalum and has the waveforms of the sound of the word water in 103 languages engraved on one side.
Its a plate of semiotic beauty and I hope future lifeforms will not listen to it backwards.
