On the first week of January 2025 Microsoft's real_boss, the President (working
for Bill_Epsteingate), waxed_lyrical_with_a_smokescreen. Looking back (12
months), it was just the "BS" we said it would be. Microsoft_has_since_then
shed_off_twice_as_many_people_(in_mass_layoffs)_as_Microsoft_claims_and_the
debt_soared.


Maybe this coming Monday Microsoft will come up with more false promises and
vapourware. Get ready for lots of lies; LLM slopfarms will parrot and spread
these. █

⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Decline in LLM Slop About "Linux" is a Good
Start for 2026⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧


posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 02, 2026


As noted earlier, our_series_about_LLM_slop_(which_tracks_the_principal
culprits)_died_in_2025 due to a significant decrease in relevant observations.
I've only just checked (manually, no RSS feeds) some offending sites and
they're either inactive or produce slop about slop, not about "Linux".


There are some slopfarms today (recent hours also*) that say "AI" isn't a
bubble - or something worded to that effect (slop need not make sense!). They
refer to slop, not any form of AI, and they're not even composed by a human
being but by LLMs (which in effect promote themselves).


When the only remaining proponents of slop are slop, which is pretty much
what's happening right now, the bubble is popping. █

Cocainegate⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧

Today it is a Friday and no longer a holiday. Many national_representatives,
often the heads of patent offices (NPOs), will be at the office. It's time to
tell them that the EPO isn't just deeply corrupt (in the Benoît_Battistelli era
the corruption became the norm) but also high on illegal drugs. See, to António
Campinos it's "norm" to do cocaine while running the Office.


What sort of serious patent attorney would tolerate this?


The_EPO_may_have_never_been_more_fragile, set aside the_industrial_actions_that
are_coming. "Its president is a horrible, abusive person living his dream of
his own monarchy," a reader told us, "only terrified by the impact the
Administrative Council could have, if it really were independent, competent and
decisive. Maybe this is where the solution lies: the AC and its delegates do
not want to be seen as corrupt at all. These are all serious people,
technocrats who worked years and years to gain their reputation and they don't
want it to be smeared by this current scandal, a scandal an organisation like
the EPO has never seen since its foundation. This applies even more to the vice
presidents of the EPO."


If you live in Europe, contact_your_representative/s_today. We've already
provided the contact details for them all and they're checking E-mail,
sometimes they even respond. Do not assume they know about Cocainegate; the
media that spoke to us is going out of its way not to mention it despite
knowing it is true. Later in the series we'll debate what it means when
Europe's largest media intentionally covers up serious scandals in Europe's
second-largest institution. █

With community-centric (i.e. real, authentic, grassroots) Free Software, there
are no job interviews. Anyone who wishes to join, unless there's some
objectionable trait, is invited to join. There's no pressure in terms of
capacity as there are no salaries.


Why is it that a lack of racial (or gender etc.) diversity is spun as an issue
with the Free Software community while large, intolerant, violent companies get
painted as a glorious example of United Colours of Benetton? That's because of
media ownership and AstroTurfing. Free Software does not control the major
media. The_money_controls_this_media. █

By airing some 'dirty laundry' about the OSI last year we contributed to its
current state: quiet, headless, unable to find a new head.


To be clear, we're not done with our OSI series, we're just observing the
affairs there. Like the 'Linux'_Foundation ("LF"), the OSI isn't what its name
may seem to imply/suggest; the difference is, "LF" is a lot bigger and would
take more effort to change/topple. For instance, it controls the mouth of Mr.
Torvalds, who sees_in_SFC_many_of_the_same_issues_that_exist_in_"LF" (but he
would not dare speak the same way about his_paymaster). █

The proprietary software boosters are projecting


 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Libxml2_is_the_XML_C_parser_and_toolkit_developed_for_the

                      available_under_the_MIT_License.⦈_


Last month I argued that: "When it comes to proprietary software, it tends to
come with a higher price tags, sometimes more bells and whistles. But it
contains a lot of bugs, those bugs don't tend to be fixed (sometimes they
charge for new versions that tackle bugs), and in most cases there's bloat and
a growing risk that the maintaining company - not a community but a single
point of failure - will go out of business."


I've noticed a lot of propaganda lately about some Free software projects being
"risky" or "dangerous" because only one person maintains them. One recent
catalyst or driver of this line of reasoning is LibXML2. They say "nobody pays"
the FOSS devs; how about most proprietary software developers (companies in
particular) being deep in debt? Which one is worse?


They say stuff like, Free software depends on just one person; proprietary
depends on one company. At least that one developer can easily pass on
stewardship for maintenance. LibXML2 will live on or be forked.


Free software generally lasts_a_lot_longer than proprietary counterparts.
Sometimes is just hibernates a little. For instance, WordPress is a successor
or continuation of sorts (of b2).


Speaking of hibernation, it has been 2_months_since the last_message_in
libreplanet-discuss (by Akira Urushibata). It's probably the longest-ever
duration of silence for the libreplanet-discuss mailing list. █

                # ⚓ Books_I_enjoyed_reading_in_2025⠀⇛


                       These are the books I enjoyed most in the last
                       year.


                       First, a list of the most enjoyed Gutenberg books
                       and short stories, followed by the non-Gutenberg
                       non-fiction, and ending with non-Gutenberg fiction.


                # ⚓ The_high_blood_pressure_incident⠀⇛


                       Two weeks ago, on October 15th, in a routine
                       medical check the doctor found out that my blood
                       pressure was so high that I could have suffered
                       significant damage.


                       I like to call it "the incident" for some reason,
                       don't know why.


                       From that day on, my life has changed
                       significantly. Now I eat without any added salt, I
                       avoid coffee, alcohol and any other thing that can
                       make my blood pressure rise.


          o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾


                # ⚓ Fascinating_world_of_proton⠀⇛


                       During my studies I had a friend who was crazy
                       about gravitons. Almost every day he would talk
                       about them: what would happen if he found them, and
                       how exciting it would be to use them to just run
                       off into outer space.


                       As time passed and I dropped out of university to
                       work as a software developer, I tried to stay
                       connected to astronomy and physics. It wasn't
                       always easy, but for a few years, thanks to Dr
                       Becky Smethurs and her YouTube channel[0], I've
                       stayed up to date with what's happening right now
                       in astronomy. And she lit my fire of curiosity for
                       research on the topic.


                       One day, I tried to imagine what the quantum world
                       really looks like. This curiosity came from another
                       discovery of mine: during my studies I was taught
                       that the Big Bang started as a singularity, which
                       apparently is no longer part of the current
                       standard model (I plan to write more about that in
                       another gemlog entry).


                # ⚓ A_begrudging_realization_that_adding_icons_to_menu_items
                  might_be_useful_for_some_people⠀⇛


                       Up through Windows ’95 and Office ’95, menu items
                       did not have icons next to them.


                       Microsoft Office ’97 introduced a new style where
                       some menu entries would have icons next to them.
                       According to their human-interface guide, this sort
                       of thing was a way to highlight important/common
                       actions that a user could take.


                       macOS 26 came out recently. One of the things
                       that’s different about it is that the built-in
                       applications all have loads of icons next to menu-
                       bar menu entries, like, File → Save Version and
                       Edit → AutoFill → Contact.


                # ⚓ Despite_it_being_a_new_year,_the_scams_will_never_stop
                  coming⠀⇛


                       The clock struck midnight, the Times Square ball
                       fell, and scams are still a thing in this year of
                       2026.


                       [...]


                       The first time was, I don't know, earlier this
                       month. I thought then, and I still think it now,
                       that any “official notification” would come through
                       the U.S. Postal Service (aka (also known as) “snail
                       mail”) than a vague text message.


                       Also, by the time a debt hits the collection
                       agencies, the organization with the debt has
                       already written it off and sold the debt to said
                       collection agencies, and I somehow don't think
                       government organizations would sell off debt to
                       collection agencies. Why would they? They have the
                       means (read: guns) to collect if they really wanted
                       to.


                       Anyway, a search later, and I found this alert [1]
                       from the Florida Department of Highway Safety and
                       Motor Vehicles [2] about this scam, and they
                       mention the fact they will never send such a notice
                       via text message, but will instead use snail mail.


                # ⚓ mkscript⠀⇛


                       I am writing 'mkscript'. What is 'mkscript'? Well,
                       it is a script to make scripts. Or even better it
                       is a shell script template to help me.


                       I got the idea from a book I read many many years
                       ago called "The Linux Command Line" written by
                       William E. Shotts Jr. On his website he has got a
                       similar script called new_script and I am looking
                       at it again to get some ideas.


                # ⚓ kiwi⠀⇛


                       In case you are curious about it, kiwi is the
                       hostname of my raspberry pi model 3. This week I
                       have upgraded it to raspbian trixie, well that is
                       not correct. Raspbian is now called Raspberry Pi
                       OS. I had not upgraded it for a long time and I'll
                       tell you why. I love and hate my raspi at the same
                       time: [...]

Today we've not published many articles because we ported over some tools
(simple shell and Bash stuff) from the sister site and then deployed changes
that make it easier to install our SSG in other (future) platforms. It deals
with both Gemini Protocol and HTTP/S, which is rare for SSGs and CMSs. It's
also simple and extensible.


If some things in the site of Gemini capsules don't behave as expected, then
that's likely due to a bug, which can be reported directly or in IRC. █

This slopfarm does_not_care_about_facts (based on Microsoft's_own_reports). It
has been reduced to a spam-generating outlet or spamfarm made with LLMs. This
is hours old:


🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Slopfarm:_The_year_Microsoft_CEO_Satya_Nadella_appointed_new
           CEO_to_run_the_company's_biggest_business_with_the_aim⦈_


Once upon a time we linked to TOI quite a lot. About 1-2 years ago we began to
notice that TOI had silently turned to LLMs. Apparently the salaries of
journalists in India were too high, so TOI - reportedly in an existential
crisis (financial problems) at the time - turned to slop. TOI still pretends to
have a lot of output, but a lot of it is licensed (then reposted) from other
sites and a lot of the rest is LLM slop.


Be watchful and anticipate Microsoft_propaganda_by_LLMs this week and/or next
week. The_timing_has_significance because of impending mass layoffs (Microsoft
already preemptively prepares phony excuses for that). █

⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Slopwatch Still Dead, Not Enough LLM Slop
About "Linux"⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧


posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 02, 2026


So far in 2026...


In the past 1.5 days we've found no new examples of slop about "Linux" (or
similar themes) in Google News or in RSS feeds, except for this one site:


 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Slop_or_fake:_UFW:_Important_Hardening_Patterns_for_Long-
                             Lived_Linux_Servers⦈_


It's a pseudonym emitting LLM slop.


This other one from the same day is promoting back_doors_and_kill_switches
connected_to_the_NSA, which says it wants front doors for everything (not even
concealing the true intent). Slop in support of snake-oil:


 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Slop_or_fake:_NSA:_Managing_Secure_Boot_for_Linux_Against
                              Bootchain_Attacks⦈_


We cannot do Slopwatch with so little example-base. But this is the desirable
thing. █

As_expected, Nadella's Ponzi tour has begun. First, he's attempting to
neutralise critics.


Sadly for him, even critics_from_within_Microsoft_come_out_of_the_woodwork_now:

Get popcorn, as with more XBox/gaming layoffs being imminent the blowback will
be fun to watch.


So what has Microsoft got left in the tank?


Slop?


Oh, sorry. Can't use that word, it offends the person raiding the company and
paying staff with worthless shares that are a de facto stock buyback scheme. █

Robber barons and mega-corporations own or partly_own today's important/
impactful news outlets. This makes financial sense to them and nobody is
stopping them.


This problem gets worse every year; they strive to control the narrative, not
just about themselves and their stakes of interest. The above example from The
Register MS is very new and very symptomatic; last night we the same_from
Steven_Vaughan-Nichols (SJVN), who writes in The Register MS. See, in order to
understand what motivates an opinion piece one must follow the money.


At the Linux_Foundation (LF), for example, tech advice follows the bribes. Slop
is_bad? TAKE BRIBE. Now_it's_"GOOD"! So ahead now, we dare you, SHILL it!!!
Praise it!


Same for Rust, which GAFAM incubated inside the belly or the corpse of Mozilla.
Now the LLM slop promotes Rust [1, 2] (the latter example is only hours old).


This will get worse over time.


It is only fair to say that today's_LF_is_an_unofficial_bribery_hub, almost a
money-laundering organisation. Via LF, companies_habitually_buy_influence_not
only_over_"Linux"_et_al_but_"access"_in_the_media_also. SJVN is one of their
lying/PR operatives, a coin-operated person whom they boast about in their
brochures (yes, they openly advertise him as such). Jono_Bacon_was_too. LF even
sells_you_"tweets"_from_'influencers' such as these.


So a lot of what we see online is paid-for SPAM, even if that seems to come
from so-called 'influencers' or "thought leaders" or whatever.


This saddens us and it ought to sadden you, too.


As noted above, just to repeat, in order to understand what motivates an
opinion piece one must follow the money. █


"I'M NOTICING A PATTERN among certain people within my profession who've jumped
to the defense of Bari Weiss, the oligarch functionary installed at CBS by new
owner David Ellison to enforce ideological discipline upon its journalists..."

"IBM is running out of money to acquire companies and out of employees to RA,
so the momentum is unsustainable."


Regarding IBM's stock, IBM will try to "prop it up on some pretext (AI,
Quantum, Cloud, Security...)"


IBM is trying to paint Red Hat and Fedora as "AI" (slop) [1, 2]. Everyone knows
it's undesirable, but IBM staff want to keep the job and last week we learned
that a longtime Fedora user dumped it over the whole "AI" nonsense.


So IBM is sacrificing Fedora for Wall Street decoy/con.


The dumber IBM becomes (layoffs and brain drain*), the_more_buzzwords_it_will
resort_to. Because buzzwords are a fool's way to compensate for or disguise a
lack of knowledge. █

IBM systematically pushes out or fires older people not because they are slow
or dumb or lazy. It's because they are "expensive" (salary expectations based
on skills and experience).

Voting machines. What do they do anyway? Is discussing this matter a political
statement? Voting machines are favoured by most political parties, as anyone
questioning the need for these would likely be ridiculed or labeled some bad
word.

Voting machines. So much stuff can - and sometimes does - go wrong. Voting
machines are not a religion, are they? In his latest book (that I still read),
Schneier discusses the history of voting, however he seems to be obsessing too
much over slop, not whether we need any technology at all to collect and count
votes? Observers and a form of "peer review" have served humanity for many
years - centuries even - with redundancy at many levels to counter mischief
(many ballots, many observers, independent counts).


I'm not an antagonist of tech, but why on Earth are people trying to slap a
computer at everything? This past Sunday I saw in a flea market a component of
a so-called 'smart' meter. I didn't recognise what that was (I never had one).
Do we really need a meter that measures things like when you use what, how many
people are home, and all sorts of other things? Who is best served by such
"tech" (data collection)? The same old (physical) meter works just fine and
serves no data about us (other than the current consumption, as revealed every
time someone comes indoors to take a reading and at_no_other_time).


Voting machines still seem to me like an infantile cargo cult and an act of
salesmanship (like various security theatre rituals at airports). I still vote
with pencil and paper; it's simple, cheaper, and it works (almost nobody
disputes the results here).

IBM today is profoundly different from the company it was over a century ago


Bosses Lie. Bosses Lie All the Time! More_so_when_times_can_be_described_as
tough/rough. That toughness and roughness is how they justify/excuse the lies
to themselves (if not to others, too).


Who has not experienced this?


Alright. But this article is not about office politics, which everybody
experienced at some point (especially in failing_IT_companies). Even outside an
actual office such politics exist.


The EPO has a staff union, so lies from António_Campinos are constantly being
challenged even when the challengers_get_challenged_by_threats_or_using
blackmail_tactics (we too are being blackmailed sometimes, unsuccessfully
though).


In the case of IBM, like the EPO, there's almost no sincere press coverage
left. Some of it is paid-for_lies. Some just parrots whatever official
statements the cokehead_at_the_Office issues.


At some point, especially in morbid institutions, people just quit believing
anything that management claims and there's a lack of trust. We've been seeing
more and more of this at Microsoft in recent years, as the atmosphere got worse
with all the layoffs. The same can be said about Google, Facebook, Apple, and
Amazon. GAFAM loses its credibility; even the workers look for alternative
explanation of things (for example, are the layoffs driven by massive debt/
accounting issues or by "AI" - whatever they even mean by that?).


GAFAM's media strategy in a nutshell: of course we'll slander and demonise real
journalists who expose true facts about us while congratulating and actively
working with paedophiles_acting_as_"journalists". True story. Way to discredit
oneself. Anyway, as long as whistleblowers exist or anonymous voices can be
aired online a potential exists for discovering suppressed facts and obtaining
embarrassing documents. Our EPO series will go on and on for a long time to
come. IBM will likely be a daily theme (high rate of recurrence). We recently
saw that we truly irritate the managers there. █

"I’m looking forward to having today off, and going back in Monday to see where
the Pipmunks have shuffled the deck chairs on the titanic while I use my
paychecks to build up my “just in case” fund more and will spend IBMs time job

Performance and salaries aren't the sole factors when it comes to IBM layoffs,
contrary to intuition. Even some "cheap" staff gets laid off and insiders
assert the company gets rid of some of the most productive people (not in spite
of their productivity, maybe because of it). At the end of last year there were
many_cuts_at_IBM_in_Brazil. Layoffs got "implemented" (IBM calls them "RAs")
and whole facilities were ended. This impacted several cities, including Rio de
Janeiro and São Paulo. Someone made a_video_about_this_last_month. From the
video's description: "IBM announced the closure of its research laboratory in
Brazil, the company's only one in Latin America. The decision, communicated to
approximately 100 employees last Tuesday (18), affects teams distributed
between São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro and marks the end of a unit created in
2010 to develop artificial intelligence, cloud computing and quantum computing
technologies."


The video contains slop, so the text too is suspect.

Not only the labs in Brazil are impacted (they're marketed_using_buzzwords_like
"fields of artificial intelligence, hybrid cloud, and quantum computing"),
there are also these prior incidents:


    * IBM_Closes_Offices_and_Labs_in_the_United_States_to_Open_New_Ones_in
      India
    * Many_IBM_Layoffs,_Centred_Around_Expert_Labs_US_in_Atlanta_(Offer_of
      "Relocation"_Where_No_Such_Option_Exists)
    * IBM_Research_Shutting_Down_Labs,_Lots_of_Workers_Laid_Off_(Even_Days
      Before_Christmas_in_Devout_Catholic_Country)
There's also Albany and other_facilities.


IBM likes talking about "innovation", but it seems to be getting rid of those
most likely to come up with something new, novel, exciting.


Similarly, having_destroyed_CentOS, nowadays IBM reduces_Fedora_to_rubble_with
slop. Then they wonder why people lose interest?


Matthew Miller has been virtually 'vanished' [1, 2] and we hear from people who
dump Fedora as it was reduced to buzzwords and negative (as in, harmful to the
users) gimmicks. Almost all the prominent people in Fedora (Ben Cotton also)
were brushed aside. In recent days, Planet Fedora barely produced one story per
day (some are not in English, some are from Microsoft staff).


The stock (share price) of IBM says nothing about what actually goes on. █

Who knows best?


"I listen to the dang radio!"
Said grandpa.


"Works for Me!"


"I listen to CDs!"
Said dad.


"Works for Me!"


"I listen to the oven ringing/beeping, no app needed!"
Said grandpa.


"Works for Me!"


"The washing machine will turn itself off when done, I don't need 'smart'
things,"
Said mom.


"Works for Me!"


"I pick up the phone when it's important, I don't have time for E-mail,"
Said grandma.


"Works for Me!"


"I have books with recipes in them, no Internet required in the kitchen,"
Said mom.


"Works for Me!"


"Mom, I couldn't buy the ingredients at the shop. My phone had no connection. I
waited for 60 minutes for the connection to come back, but then my phone ran
out of battery. I could not make a payment."
Said I, the "smart" kid. █

                       Me? I suppose so.


                       2025 was NOT a good year for me. Or anyone, really.
                       Yet I managed to persevere. I don't want to dwell
                       too much on the bad, so let's see what exactly I've
                       been able to accomplish for my personal good.


                       One thing I accomplished was to lose weight. A lot
                       of it. It wasn't intentional; I just started
                       walking to alleviate my anxiety. I would walk for
                       30 minutes in the morning, 20 minutes for lunch,
                       and an hour and 20 minutes after dinner. I managed
                       to cut down the walking to just morning and evening
                       because the weight loss was sudden, too sudden. I
                       lost a lot of good clothes because they were all
                       too loose, and many of them couldn't be mended to
                       fit me. 25 pounds! I feel lighter and better than
                       ever before!


                       Another thing I accomplished was to go out and be
                       with friends again. It wasn't easy. Most of my
                       friends are scattered across the country. The few
                       still living here never had much time to hang out.
                       Nevertheless, I persisted in going out, and one
                       thing I remembered that used to unnerve me was that
                       it's remarkably easy for me to make friends. I even
                       had a couple of dates! They were duds, but hey,
                       progress is progress.


                # ⚓ The_mind_tv⠀⇛


                       Stopping watching the tv created a desire to unplug
                       further. I though at first it would be more of a
                       digital cleanse, but something else happened.


                       The So-Hum practice came back to me. It's a very
                       simple practice, you recite 'So' on the inhale and
                       'hum' on the exhale. So simple that you can
                       practice that all day. Instead of taking time in
                       the morning to do this practice, I come back to it
                       at any time during the day. Mostly during the in-
                       between, when someone leave, when I am in the
                       bathroom, while writing in the morning.


                # ⚓ On_noise⠀⇛


                       I create noise Every time I write more noise is
                       created


                       It's also random noise No one search for the noise
                       I am creating


                # ⚓ Making_Sense⠀⇛


                       If it make sense it's not the truth yet Continue on
                       your path until it doesn't make sense anymore.


                       There you can rest, let go of your mind and realize
                       your own essence


          o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾


                # ⚓ I_bought_a_"new"_ThinkPad!⠀⇛


                       Lacking anything sparking much joy in my life, I
                       bought myself a new ThinkPad.


                       While dicking around with a RISC32 board that I got
                       for free from AliExpress (a story for another
                       time), I stopped myself from downloading yet
                       another questionable chinese toolchain. I realized
                       that it's irresponsible to do so on the same
                       computer I use for banking.


                       So I looked on EBay, and went down (or up) -- a
                       rabbit('s) hole. All those ThinkPads I can buy!


                       In case you are not indoctrinated, ThinkPads are
                       the most incredible machines you can buy today.
                       Screw Framework -- you can pick up a magnesium-
                       cased machine with a relatively recent processor
                       for a couple of hundred dollars. And you can get
                       cheap parts, open it up and repair it. Or replace
                       the LCD for a higher resolution one.


                       Also (from experience) you can spill a liter of
                       water directly onto the keyboard without any bad
                       consequences. Turn it off, dry it out, and be more
                       careful next time. Although I do not recommend it,
                       true story.


                       The first ThinkPad I got was during Covid -- a $75
                       T470 with an 6th-gen I5 with 16GB RAM. I did have
                       to get a power supply, a couple of batteries, a
                       caddy and a drive, so by the time I was done it was
                       over $200, but still! It quickly became my main
                       travel machine -- with most memory.


                # ⚓ Japanese_input_on_SHARP_Zaurus⠀⇛


                       I didn't know. There are some software ways for
                       doing so but there is a button on the keyboard
                       which switches the input from hardware keyboard to
                       the most practical mode: one writes in Latin
                       (Romanji) and software replace it instantly with
                       Hiragana characters. When the space is pressed then
                       the Hiragana is replaced with Kanji symbols (if
                       applicable). If the space is pressed once more then
                       menu appears with other possible Kanji and/or
                       Katakana meanings. It's normal on the desktop but I
                       didn't expected that it will work so well there.


                       Thus, for now, my HARP SL6000N fills most of my
                       needs in this area - I'm able to write the word I
                       heart and to get the proper writing of it (and with
                       help of the ZBDict dictionary also its meaning). If
                       I see unknown Kanji I'm able to write it with use
                       of virtual drawing pad (with some difficulty...).
                       The only missing thing is pronunciation as I know
                       no application or dictionary file for the Zaurus
                       which has it.


                # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾


                      # ⚓ Anticipating_2026⠀⇛


                             The annual tradition of intro/retrospection
                             is upon us, as 2025 wraps up and a new year
                             begins.


                             I don't generally like to share future plans
                             because I can't commit to actually following
                             through with any of them, due to limitations
                             on time and/or energy. Sometimes it feels
                             like future plans have a bit of Heisenberg's
                             indeterminacy to them, in that you can either
                             discuss them or implement them, but never do
                             both. There's something to holding an idea
                             close to the vest, enjoying that extra boost
                             of excitement about revealing the surprise
                             only once finished.


                             Anyway, this is more of a note-to-self kind
                             of post about things I'd like to get around
                             to working on, focusing on projects at a
                             higher level. Maybe this will give me some
                             clarity as to all of these swirling ideas and
                             plans that are challenging to wrangle during
                             hectic everyday life.


                             § Handheld Lagrange and gamepad support


                             I've been working toward getting Lagrange to
                             run on the RGB30, which is a little Linux-
                             based retro-oriented handheld. (That is, it
                             ships with a bunch of emulators on the system
                             disk and Emulation Station as the main UI.)
                             Lagrange works rather well on it now. Would
                             be nice to finalize the gamepad support for
                             Lagrange version 1.20 and release an official
                             build for the RGB30. I can see gamepad
                             controls being particularly useful in TV &
                             couch and HMD VR use cases, and you could
                             also consider it an accessibility feature
                             since there are gamepads for limited mobility
                             scenarios.


                # § Programming⠀➾


                      # ⚓ Simpler_sparse_arrays:_sparse_list_lite.py⠀⇛


                             Sometimes I imagine that there are two kinds
                             of people writing Python (or people in
                             general): people who want to write all of
                             their own code without importing any
                             packages, and people who would rather import
                             whatever random package claims to do what
                             they want. (And I would be the first kind.)
                             This is clearly oversimplified, however, and
                             in practice I find it's usually more about
                             balancing the pros and cons between the two
                             options—readability, stability, optimization,
                             etc.


                             Recently, I've found myself working more and
                             more with sparse data, or rather I find
                             myself finding more and more uses for sparse
                             representations of data (since any data could
                             be sparse, given an absurd enough way to
                             represent it). But then the problem was, the
                             only package I knew of for working with
                             sparse arrays was SciPy, which is about as
                             far to the extreme of complexity as it's
                             possible to go. Not only can `import scipy`
                             take longer than a moderately sized program,
                             but SciPy's implementation of sparse arrays
                             seems to be particularly complex and (in my
                             opinion) hard to work with. That's not to say
                             that SciPy is bad, it's more a question of
                             what I'm trying to use sparse arrays for,
                             compared with SciPy. SciPy's sparse arrays
                             are mainly intended for fast matrix
                             operations, whereas I mainly use sparse
                             arrays for lookup tables that are often only
                             1D rather than ND arrays. SciPy's sparse
                             arrays can be good for lookup tables, using
                             the DoK ("dictionary of keys" (what else
                             would it be a dictionary of?)) format, but
                             even then their approach has a number of
                             undesirable features: [...]

                 Switzerland has 26 cantons and each canton maintains its
                 own business register.


                 I previously had to research the scandal involving an
                 illegal legal insurance scheme being operated across the
                 border between Switzerland and France. The presence of
                 records about multiple nominee owners and business
                 entities in different cantons made it hard to find the
                 truth. Nonetheless, the truth came out on the JuristGate
                 web site.


                 Le Constellation is in the Canton of Valais and the
                 business records can be searched in this public database.


                 The search reveals the owners are Jacques Moretti, a
                 French citizen domiciled in Lens and Jesicca Macif, his
                 spouse, who is also a French citizen.

                 but left room for all the moments in the middle – those
                 times when I think oh! and have an inclination to try
                 something new, or to explore new paths and build
                 conviction in what I want to do next. Indeed, many of the
                 things I want to do have actually been in my mind for a
                 while – to learn German, for example – and that started
                 last year. Change can happen at any time.

                 And as a result, the backlog of ideas is now massive and
                 therefore overwhelming, which has created a vicious cycle

                 It’s that time of the year again and, all over the
                 English-speaking world, Christians are complaining about
                 the growing commercialisation of Christmas. The
                 complaints are partly justified, but what has happened is
                 not really so much the commercialisation of a Christian
                 festival, as the separation (in time and in character) of
                 two feasts that have coincided for centuries. Only one of
                 these is in any sense Christian. The other was once a
                 pagan festival that meant something important for the
                 non-Christian world, and whose pagan holiness bled over
                 into the Christian festival in a powerful nexus of
                 symbols, but which has now been stripped of any holiness
                 at all and of most of its fun too.

                       up for the lack of distance.


                       This year's Wolf Supermoon will also fall just

                       percent closer than its farthest point. This means
                       just a tiny bit more sunlight reaches the Earth-

                             only a little over half of all new articles
                             on the internet are AI-generated, according
                             to a new report highlighted in Axios, says an
                             article from Futurism. Believe it or not,
                             this is kind of good news. Since the public
                             launch of ChatGPT in November 2022, we’ve
                             been battening down the hatches amid an
                             absolute deluge of AI slop. But it hasn’t
                             quite drowned us all yet, evidently. The

                             language articles published between January
                             2020 and May 2025. Using an AI detector
                             called Surfer, any article that was found to
                             have 50 percent or more of the content
                             written with a large language model was
                             considered AI-generated. As expected, the
                             analysis showed a rapid spike in AI-generated
                             articles coinciding with the release of
                             ChatGPT, from roughly ten percent in late
                             2022, to over 40 percent by 2024, before
                             slowing to a more steady climb. Now, for the

                             articles has hit a plateau. After AI-

                             around a fifty-fifty split, As of this May,
                             the share of new AI articles is at 52
                             percent, trading places from just a month ago
                             when human written articles enjoyed a brief

                       form of politics, but to the Constitution.
                       Enlistees in all branches also pledge to obey
                       orders from their officers and the president. As
                       stipulated in the Uniform Code of Military Justice
                       (UCMJ), it’s clear that this means only lawful
                       orders. Officers take a slightly different oath:
                       they, too, swear to support and defend the
                       Constitution, but their oath doesn’t include
                       anything about obeying orders from their superiors

                       anymore. These days, instead of using it to make
                       ourselves, most of us are using it to waste
                       ourselves: we’re doom-scrolling brain-rot on the
                       attention-farm, we’re getting slop from the feed.


                       Instead of turning freely in the HTTP meadows we
                       grow for each other, we go to work: we break our
                       backs at the foundry of algorithmic content as this
                       earnest, naïve, human endeavoring to connect our
                       lives with others is corrupted. Our powerful drive
                       to learn about ourselves, each other, and our
                       world, is broken into scant remnants — hollow,
                       clutching phantasms of Content Creation, speed-cut
                       vertical video, listicle thought-leadership,
                       ragebait and the thread emoji.

                 Here’s where the confusion is coming from: On New Year’s
                 Eve, Paramount Skydance did indeed shut down several MTV-
                 branded music channels in the U.K. According to a source,
                 “MTV’s specialist music channels in the UK will no longer
                 operate as linear channels. The flagship MTV UK channel
                 will continue to broadcast… Paramount is reviewing and
                 adjusting its international Pay TV portfolio, given
                 shifts in audience behavior towards streaming and digital
                 platforms.”

                       that the term PACHANGA, which means "a (lively)

                       In 2025 I read several books and short stories that
                       are now in the public domain. Here are the most
                       noteworthy.

                       So-called "Public Domain Day" is important because
                       it offers community theaters, youth orchestras and
                       other groups content without licensing agreements,
                       but it also gives these creative pieces a chance
                       for new life, saving them from being "lost to
                       history," said Jennifer Jenkins and James Boyle,
                       co-directors of the Center for the Study of the
                       Public Domain at Duke University.


                       "1930 was a long time ago, and the vast majority of
                       works from that year are not commercially
                       available. You couldn't buy them, or even find
                       them, if you wanted," they wrote in an article
                       published by the center. "When they enter the
                       public domain in 2026, anyone can rescue them from
                       obscurity and make them available, where we can all
                       discover, enjoy and breathe new life into them."


                       The center celebrates this every year by listing
                       off many of the works heading into the public
                       domain. These are 26 of the more notable works that
                       are joining the long list in 2026.

                       that enter the public domain in 2026, a.k.a. today!
                       This year, that means we enter a new decade, as
                       works originally published in 1930 finally exit
                       copyright protection and become free to remix,
                       repurpose, and build on. Gaming Like It’s 1930!
                       begins today and runs until the end of the month,
                       and we’re calling on designers of all stripes to
                       help us show why a robust and growing public domain
                       is so valuable and important.

                       Only the version of Betty Boop introduced in 1930
                       is entering the public domain this year. With her
                       signature kiss curls and strapless dress, she is
                       unmistakably Betty with one major exception: She’s
                       an anthropomorphic French poodle with long, floppy
                       ears. These ears would become hoop earrings in
                       later iterations. In the mid-1930s, the Hays Code
                       restricted “indecent or undue exposure” and
                       “suggestive postures” from the silver screen,
                       forcing more changes to Betty’s appearance. Her
                       hemlines lowered while her necklines inched higher,
                       and her plots became less trippy and more
                       traditional.
