Es war viel los bei der Mathare Foundation im Mathare Slum in Nairobi.
Teilnehmer und Teilnehmerinnen an einem von Katharina Nickoleit veranstalteten Kurs nahmen als Flugpaten gespendeten Laptops von @Labdoo_D für die #Mathare #Foundation mit. Vielen Dank für die tolle Aktion.
Das Projekt vor Ort informierte dabei über seine Arbeit mit Kindern und Jugendlichen und bedankte sich für die IT-Spenden.

Thoroughly enjoying Foundation, based on the Isaac Asimov classic which I read as a youth.
It's about galactic empires, so an easy sell to me but I'm thoroughly on board with where they've taken the source material.
We are onto the second season now, already I'm telling me wife I could be a better Emperor of the Galaxy because I do the dishes, and none of those guys do.
Keep it real fellow Space gods, do some chores.

Removed all the fence and rocks and bricks from around the house, apart from the two large concrete beams on the half-assedly renovated part. Need to pull those out very carefully.

All filled back in and raked to slope away from the house for now.

Need to fetch the German lottery machine and buy a bunch of stuff, like a dumptruck full of sand/aggregate to continue on the foundation repair.

@dazo Couldn't agree more Compensation and projection seem to be hallmark traits for #MAGATs They are a natural and expected logical development of a #USCulture of #Fantasy #Escapism and #Denial It's #USPolitics #USReligion it's a sick culture Why else would most in the US chose to travel to stand in line and pay for overpriced food and tickets to see a #FantasyMouse and #FantasyPrincess when they could travel to see #Art #History #Music #Theatre: the #Foundation of the World and #Reality

Odpaliłem pod Linuksem demo gry Foundation (bardzo chillowy city builder, tyle że ze średniowieczną wioską). Działa bardzo fajnie, nawet na moim niezbyt mocnym sprzęcie, ale wyłącznie na Xorg, a pod Wayland co jakiś czas się wykrzacza z graficznymi babolami, zdarzyło się też całkowite zamrożenie.

Szukanie jakiegoś rozwiązania nie jest łatwe, bo internet jest pełny narzekania na działanie wielu rzeczy na kombo Wayland+Nvida. Wygląda na to, że żeby móc sobie pograć, musiałbym przełączać sesje, albo całkiem powrócić do Xorg :(

Szkoda, bo gra jest naprawdę bardzo przyjemna.

DST change reminded me of that time QA discovered that, if you build a date from NSDateComponents, any missing items will not be set to zero, but will be set to the corresponding value from the current date and time.

Which meant that my March 30th, 12:00 would get random one-minute-drift like 12:00:59 because the user entered the date right before a minute change.

Makes sense for the date, but was a bit bewildering for the time, especially seconds.
