    Sacred bovine! How did we get so bad at this?

    I didn't really have friends stay overnight, but one of my brothers frequently did. So much that when some of his friends got kicked out, they came to stay with us.

    I did see a change between when #sonOne (1st son) grew up and when #sonTwo (2nd son) came along ten years later, but that pales in comparison to the article.

    Gnuastro: Two lensed star candidates from 12.56 billion years imaged with JWST

    Two unique features of GNU Astronomy Utilities (Gnuastro), "NoiseChisel" and "Segment," assisted in a recent scientific achievement: photometry (measurements of the flux of astronomical objects) of the second most distant resolved stars behind the gravitational lens of a large intermediate galaxy cluster by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), which is currently the largest optical telescope in space. The observed photons from these stars were emitted 12.56 billion years ago (when the universe was only 1.23 billion years old). Mentioned in Section 4.2 of the article published in the journal Astrophysical Journal Letters published by the American Astronomical Society, it was thanks to the unique features of Gnuastro that they were able to do the photometry and properly identify them as very distant stars.

    Special thanks to the maintainer of Gnuastro, Mohammad Akhlaghi, for sharing the article for inclusion in this month's Supporter and for providing valuable scientific context.

    Mark and his wife are expecting a baby soon. I think he promised he'd be a work near home dad, so he'd better get to looking or he'll be halfway across the country. I'll try to call him tomorrow.

    #GS3 and #GS4 got the Paw Patrol slippers that I ordered. Unfortunately, even with "order a size larger", the two year old's slippers were too small. #sonTwo is going to the store on his way home from work to pick up some slippers, because he was really unhappy that he didn't get to wear his slippers.

    @clacke Hachyderm has some a-holes on it also. If they haven't been "fortunate" enough to get on #Fediblock yet, they're on their way.

      My Body Is Ready
      from Know Your Meme
      “My Body is Ready” is a catchphrase mainly associated with image macros wherein the subject is posing in a seductive manner or smiling creepily, similar to the usage of “Draw Me Like One of Your French Girls.” In discussion forums, the phrase is often used to humorously convey one’s excitement or anticipation towards the impending arrival of a desirable object or an event. The expression may be also used in counter-response to other Internet colloquialisms like Prepare Your Anus.

    @geniusmusing The review sounds very good. I think I should add Orange Pi 5 to my "try this" list. I bought an #Orange_Pi 0, but it tends to overheat, so its utility is limited.

    I should see if there is still a sewing machine repair shop in my town. I'd like to buy an old singer electric from before the parts were made of plastic.

    If you scan a physical book, you've infringed copyright? This needs to be challenged. Format-shifting of items purchased is legitimate.
