  @ultrazool hyperscale data centres have been on the news quite a bit lately for their use of methane and their impact on nearby populations: https://www.technologyreview.com/2025/05/20/1116272/ai-natural-gas-data-centers-energy-power-plants/ https://www.politico.com/news/2025/05/06/elon-musk-xai-memphis-gas-turbines-air-pollution-permits-00317582

  A very common pattern used in CLI programs that output file paths is to append a line number, and sometimes character position, separated by a colon characters (e.g. `src/main.c:123:20:`), but in X11 the default double-click selection includes the colon character, so you have to manually select the path... Fortunately in uRXVT you can use the selection perl extension to match these paths with regex: URxvt.selection.pattern-0: (?<=^|│|┃|║)([A-Za-z0-9_./-]+):[0-9] And it even supports tm...

  @sean_ae @Cognessence @oscillik @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee I went down the rabbit hole to check this because I wasn't sure about the details but yeah I think you can say it is FM GM: SC2K and lots of other games from that era used Miles Sound System, a sort of audio driver with dev tools that has a format called XMI that embeds MIDI events and also bank+patch format to map for example GM into OPL3 FM commands. I was able to extract the files from SC2000.DAT and play the tracks and instrumen...
