Release day for Charlie Hooper-Williams' “The Book of Fixed Stars.” Here’s an enticing picture of what it sounds like live. 😉

Not easy to find Kernel magazine in Turin. But got it shipped overseas and it’s worth it. No better read on the intersection of tech and society. (h/t @kuppermann.xyz )

The Italian Tech Resistance starts tomorrow in #torino! See y'all there.

Some of these #Kathmandu fires are the houses of politicians. "Protesters set fire to the house of Minister for Communication and Information Technology Prithvi Subba Gurung in Lalitpur." And there are others. (via kathmandupost.com/national/202...)

The air is beginning to smell like burning tires.

#Kathamndu protests have spread to Patan-Lalitpur. Here’s the scene outside my office.

After killing 19 protesters yesterday, the Prime Minister refuses to resign. So the streets remain dangerous today.

Very impressive design fail. Which box is checked, which box is not? Chef’s kiss IRS.

Loving this Padmasambhava stencil around Kathmandu. The Olivetti graffiti in Ivrea is the only equivalent in terms of coolness.

Best error message ever? At least the first time you see it.

Glad I finally found my GDR pocket constitution. One has to know one’s rights!

This is an amazing take on a chorded keyboard co-invented by a Hollywood screenwriter.

Happy Independence Day to all those in Italy who continue to fight for those who are oppressed. It’s essential to have a day where we remember those who lost their life fighting against the oppressors. #turin

I see that the hero who pulls out vandalized scooters from the Po river, also likes to make tidy piles of the corpses. #torino

What an image. A Caterpillar excavator tears down Peoria's AFL-CIO Labor Temple on Monday to make way for an expansion of a men's shelter.

Workers lost the final battle in the 1990s when Cat busted the union & started moving jobs away. We arrived at the final stage. eu.pjstar.com/picture-gall...

Always exciting to unlock new screens of death in Linux. Found this gem after hosing my boot loader. The fix was (obviously) to physically replace the RAM in my machine.

Now that I have my cast iron skillet in Turin, I can officially say that I have moved to Europe. It only took 6 years and many inferior pans.

“Dozens of migrants were forced to sleep [overnight in freezing temps] in line in Turin so they could renew their residence permit.”

I’ve queued here. It sucks. Italy needs to spend money here b/c you don’t want to end up like the USA.

Happy to share that the grave of Mies van der Rohe is quite appropriate. The only thing better would have been a 3D black box rather than a 2D black slab.

How many cicadas invaded the Midwest this year? Just found one empty body sitting in the snow outside in -13°C weather.

Rare when you see yourself out in the wild. But here it is - Dark Matter’s Wax Trax! coffee. If you know, you know. And it you don’t, it’s best experience after a night dancing until 4am.

When Abraham Lincoln uttered “I will heal your wound as I healed a nation!” and endorsed these band-aids, I wonder if he knew these would be so popular so many years later. 10/10 product.

Turns out I’m a big Neil Welliver fan. Discovered after seeing these two large canvases from the 1980s at the #Peoria art museum.
