I sand the surface with 220 grit then apply two coats of acrylic enamel. While the paint is still wet, pock the surface in random locations with a blunted nail and score here and there with a dull screwdriver. When dry, I coat with a thinned down acrylic matte black then wipe with damp rag to smear into cracks and expose the color. Finish with a good polyurethane.

Supermassive black hole roars to life as astronomers watch in real time ( arstechnica.com )

In December 2019, astronomers were surprised to observe a long-quiet galaxy, 300 million light-years away, suddenly come alive, emitting ultraviolet, optical, and infrared light into space. Far from quieting down again, by February of this year, the galaxy had begun emitting X-ray light; it is becoming more active. Astronomers...

The Talaxians are an irritating species; they smell bad and their leader has authoritarian tendencies. It’s probably better that they’re no longer represented in the stellar empire.

a gun, especially in private hands, has absolutely no reason to exist

Americans phrase it a bit different:
‘Fuckin guns fuck yea!’

Will do: it is certain he do it in future.

Would do: it is certain he decide to do now or in future it if he has ability to do and/or knows about it and/or nothing else stop him.

Would have done: it is certain he decide to do in past if he had ability to do and/or knew about it and/or nothing else stop him.

Can do: he have ability to do now or in future.

Could do: he have ability to do now or in future if he decide to do and/or no external condition that stops it being done.

Could have done: he had the ability, he didn't do in past (maybe there are reasons).

would = intent to do if there is ability.
could = ability to do if there is intent.

  • intent: the desire to do and/or the knowledge that it needs to be done and/or no external condition that stops it being done.

"would you like coffee" = If I give to you ability to drink coffee right now, what is your answer, Yes or No?

"I would do it" = If nothing stops me and I have the ability to do, then I do it. This is said with knowledge that some condition must be met before you can do it:
"I would drink that coffee if you give it to me."
It is letting the listener know that you intend to do action, but it first requires some other thing to happen which gives you ability.

Can we make a global Lemmy compact to stop calling it Xitter and instead call it Shitter?

Can you make immich so that when you click on the map, you get a grid of relevant photos rather than full size swipe?

Can you make immich not show the stupid white lines around every country?

Must go through a lot of batteries.

Hmm. So a US law introduced solely to 'fire up the base' now has the agency to override any immigration/visa requirements of Gaza? American exceptionalism at its finest.

Who's going to handle the logistics of travel, housing, and food? Is the US military going to house thousands of civilian students? or should the studennts check out Gaza's bustling real estate listings for vacant hostels and flats?

Get busted in your dorm for getting drunk.. off to Gaza?

Think of how stupid the average conservative is, then remember, half of them are stupider than that.

Randomly getting Notion email, after having deleted my account years ago... ( slrpnk.net )

Welp I guess this is the perfect example of companies not deleting your credentials and account info when asking for it... I deleted my Notion account several years ago. And completely randomly today got an email from them about data retention, assuming this is one of those "important" emails they have to send out. Sadly, years...

Best I can tell… If you want to poison your significant other, communicate with outlook as a throwaway email account.
