  @mei @anya And this is python! There's multiple file compression formats in the standard library that you can use near transparently! Instead of Json.load(open(filename)) Literally just do Json.load(lzma.open(filename)) No muss no fuss no stupid bmp

  @foone I guess the follow-up question is WHICH Roku is becoming increasingly bad for you? My whole house is standardized on an old 5th gen model at every tv (4630), for basically only Plex usage, but the specs vary widely model to model.

  I still don't care about the plight of poor disadvantaged ivy leaguers.

  I can't believe that I, a respected citizen with a master's degree from The Upper Class Can Rule By Inherent Divine Right University, am having arbitrary things done to me by the elite ruling class Dispatch my legal and PR teams at once.

  To repeat what others have said... When administration lawyers told the courts that Kilmar Abrego Garcia wasn't supposed to be deported, it was not an admission of error. It was a flex. https://www.latimes.com/politics/story/2025-04-14/salvadoran-president-says-he-wont-return-man-deported-by-mistake

  @slightlyoff One thing I've learned following national dem party drama, is that you cannot count on the NY State party for ANYTHING. They stand for nothing except their own self interest and have the most stupid, self-destructive intra-party power struggles.

  @amydiehl My company had a flexible WFH policy pre-pandemic, so we were totally ready for full WFH during pandemic. When the office reopened post-pandemic, they did an analysis of badge-swipe data and decided it didn't make sense to lease enough office for every Seattle employee to have a reserved cube every day. So they reduced their lease from 4 floors of the building to 1, and replaced assigned cubicles with an online day-to-day workstation reservation system. Then they eliminated...

  Several of the saints that got canonized in Pope Francis' final years were people that got killed by the Nazis for protecting others.
