Sometimes, beautyful things occur due to an error...

I tried o generate a hexgrid with #openprocessing Well, it is actually a hex grid but the tiles oberlap (filled with opacity 120) and form this pattern.

Step 2: Recalculate the corner positions.

I was really happy for having this article accepted for the Evomusart conference. It talks about all the aesthetic problems in the training of the first stable diffusion models - only SD1.5, since after that no completely open model came out. In short, the taste that got imprinted in the model represent a very small slice of society, in particular some white, male, rich techbros from the West.

Here's some homework for an upcoming episode of #Opacity #Confidential. #JonahHex #StarMan #DCComics

What did I just learn...
In #Cinnamon in Settings you can go to "Windows" and in "Title bar" section you can bind scrolling on window title bar to adjust the #opacity of the window.

WHAT?!

I've been using #linuxmint for 2 years now and I just noticed that! That's soooo cool.

Doesn't work on all windows tho, notably Flatpak Firefox and Steam (since they don't have Cinnamon title bar). Still cool!

Getting ready to record the next #Opacity Confidential episode. #Starman #DCComics #Batman

[Перевод] Упрощаем CSS-анимации с помощью свойств display и размеров элемента

До недавнего времени далеко не все свойства CSS можно было анимировать. Например, чтобы создать эффект плавного появления или исчезновения элемента, приходилось использовать свойство opacity, а не display, поскольку display нельзя было анимировать. А проблема в том, что визуально скрытый элемент всё же оставался на странице. В статье сравниваем традиционные методы и новые функции Chrome, с помощью которых можно анимировать свойство видимости и изменение размера элемента.

Even if the fact pattern implied by this meme were literal truth, it would not LITERALLY be a reification of Cory Doctorow's (@pluralistic) enshittification concept; but it comes rather closer than any of us would want!

Client didn’t pay? Make their website go away.
Something I need to test still, but adding it here for later use, maybe. If you find a bug, please let me know! And I’m halfways sure that the author shown in this link does  it less complicated, but it’s fun to learn and play around with code. https://github.com/kleampa/not-paid GOAL: Let the website fade away, one step per…

The pizza meter striked again! 🍕
A spike in pizza orders in outlets near key U.S. government buildings, detected in real-time on Google Maps, occurred during Iran’s attack on Israel on 13th April 2024, and can be seen as an information leak.

Why was "an overseas foreign minister" meeting with Winston Peters in Auckland earlier this week? Why did that foreign minister say "he wanted to see" Winston Peters?

He's not even in government yet. The old government is still The Government so Peters has no official capacity, as I understand it. Will there be transparency about this meeting, its participants and purpose?
