Spent few quite active weeks away from social media (didn't had much time for that). Man, that was good. Highly recommended! While I was away - snapped this with my phone. Although combined it from several frames on a laptop.

Seriously, people, why are you still active here? Move to BlueSky. It's okay.

Not that it matters much, but I moved to Blue Sky. Still cautious, but optimistic. For the most part - same handle as here. From now on I'll be tweeting here less and less.

Just a reminder, fellas: this Musk-ass-kissing account is just larping about being supportive to Ukraine. Besides that it's just run off the mill techbros/maga/anti-woke (it can be whatever) bla bla stan.

A friend from my former job sent me this. Replied that I'm going to miss this, since I'm having a nigh out with my new co-workers. Got a response that he doing the same with my former colleagues, just accidentally check the footage. All sky camera footage with aurora:

Short thread about Musk, inserting himself into various crises. When I learnerd that ukrainian officials asked Musk's help, my heart sunk. I knew that it's just not much more than publicity stunt for him. Why? Let's take a look at previous instances. 1/

Started a new job over a month ago. In which, main entrance looks like this. Seeing pics like this, one friend assumed that I'm visiting CERN. For which I (indirectly, in some ways) worked previously. So far so good, I guess.

Just, if I may - survived this storm. Unscaved. But woke up several times during the night, due to wind, rattling entire house. Rather uncommon stuff for mid-summer here.
NOAA 19 APT image from the 11:17 CEST pass over Leiden, showing the storm depression over the Baltic. Images: visual channel, IR channel, and MCIR (IR on false color map).

Me: I'm immune to marketing and bunch of youtubers not going to convince me to buy anything. Especially a fountain pen. Had quite a few. Cheap & expensive. They all suck. I'm not even into handwriting. Also me, some time later: damn, this looks neat. And writes pretty well.

Orbits of 1,000 named asteroids, plotted with python & matplotlib, using data from NASA JPL Horizons database. Useful case of LLMs. Sped up coding to the point of needing just to fine-tune output options. For coding-illiterate/barely litterate person like me - not a bad thing 🤗

Unicorns do exist. But not exactly in form(s) one might want to. European rhinoceros beetle (Oryctes nasicornis), caught in garden (and brought back to):

Was looking for somewhat abstract public domain/royalty free images for poster, and found this masterpiece. If that microscope was a person... think about heavily mutilated zombie & alien hybrid. Premium AI BS.

Yet another shot from last night. Although northern lights are *northern*, last night they were so active, that in this case camera was pointed south.

Here we go! Waited 20 years for this since last time. Either missed it, weather was bad or any of dozen other reasons.

Few of very first Cybertrucks, spotted in Lithuania actually are contraband to Belarus/Russia. Speaks volumes about customers/target audience of these on this side of the world.
