Ryhmä kokkeja valmistaa keittiössä erilaisia salaatteja buffettia varten. Tärkeimmän ja suurimman salaatin valmistaa aina Jussi, tämän tehtävän luottokokki. Hän nostaa pöydälle yhden raaka-aineen, eli pussillisen jääsalaattia. Pöydällä on siis pääsalaattijussin jääsalaattipussi.

Finland hasn't seen the sun in weeks and our national media is literally having a "sunrise livestream" now that it finally shows up :D

Necromancy has been invented!

Now we need a paladin/cleric/druid to strike down the megalomaniac wizard (techbros) who is using their evil magic (AI) to insult nature, humanity and life

Today went particularly well at work, so I decided to celebrate and treat myself with some true ambrosia (ie. a lihapiirakka/meat pie and blood orange juice from Lidl)

I had about an hour to spend in Tampere, so I went to the library and asked for Pelit-magazines from 1999. Apart from the nostalgia trip, it’s kind of fascinating to revisit the rude rebel bad boy vibe that the magazine had!

The absurd, hyper-violent KyöPelit comic was a good example of this 😁

… But! A-ha! Have you thought of THIS?

The attention economy has a reverse psychology effect on me. The more something looks like it’s trying to grab my attention, the more it becomes visual noise that I automatically ignore. That means, in a social media feed, a block of plain text is most likely to catch my attention! :D

Well this is pretty neat! A conference is being advertised in the Karelian language. This must be the first time I come across a real, organic text in Karelian, and not just random example phrases.

(dw, the message is public information, so I’m allowed to share. Not being unprofessional here!)

Winter running season officialy started today, which my frosty beard can attest for!

It’s kind fun to run in the winter/cold, because it gives it more of a resource management aspect. You can’t breathe too heavily in the cold, so you have to mange your pace more carefully

Today was the first time over a span of 11 years of reading academic texts I encounter the f-bomb being dropped in an academic, peer-reviewed paper, not as a quote or interview transcript, but as the authors’ actual words, at face value.

Well done Bucholtz, M. & Hall, K. (2004)!

Something really enshittified, predatory and dodgy about Apple is that every time you search the app store, the first result is an ad for something SIMILAR to what you searched for but IS NOT what you searched for.

Are you trying your best to facilitate scams and preying on vulnerable users, Apple?

Did you know. That the meme-explosion that was the wooden model of Sacabambaspis (an Ordovician jawless fish) held at a Museum in Helsinki, was created by a pioneering Estonian fish paleontologist and palaeoartist, Elga Mark-Kurik. 🧵

One particular, classic instance of tetanus polygon 3D cutscene:

Death cutscene!

(feat. maximally goofy “OKAY” by the characters at the end)

There are only two genders (of late 90s video game cutscene):

- Endearingly clunky pre-rendered 3D with about seven polygons and animations that have tetanus
- Endearingly cheesy live action video with about five pixels on the screen and sound coming from a tin can

Turning the plentiful and edible but forgotten and underutilised wild lake fish often considered ”trash fish” by hobby fishers into a convenient and accessible product?

This is the way to go!!

Stop buying imported farmed salmon every time, buy domestic fish instead! Our lakes are full of fish! 😤

No, I don’t want to “save” as to some nebulous online location I have no idea if I can reach or not next time I open my laptop.

I want to SAVE the file. On my computer. And USB stick.

(I know “download” is right there, but I WILL bitch and moan when “save” doesn’t mean properly saving anymore 😤)

Update: (because I forgot earlier) The egg did not stick! In fact, the force of a bubble erupting from underneath it had the entire egg hop up from the depression in the pan for a fraction of a second, so you can say it did the opposite of sticking. ✨👌
Finally got to restoring the old cast iron pancake pan that was a rusty mess after decades in a shed and a few months out under bare sky.

Testing if I got the surface done right. One singular egg. Will it stick?
