Every morning, the queen asked her magic mirror to show her the most beautiful person in the world.
The mirror replied "To whom?"
"The miller who made the flour for my bread," the queen would say, or "Whoever spun the thread my shawl was made of".
The mirror would show her, and she'd be amazed.
It's alright, everything's alright. Pallet cleanser incoming.

Kvikk found a new friend in his forest adventure.
Picture for Kvikk the cute beaver.
Done during NordicFuzzCon
This was scanned by Kvikk, the picture I had taken at the convention was not the best, the colors looked weird, so I asked him to share me a better picture of it.

Anyone know of a good place to get replacement phone batteries? I just discovered my dad's Galaxy A12 and my aunt's Galaxy A03s both have very swollen batteries that need replacing. When my Galaxy S7 (RIP) did the same thing some years ago I got the new battery from ifixit, but they don't seem to have parts for either of today's phones in question.
I see batteries listed on both ebay and Amazon, but with these types of site being free-for-all marketplaces now I have no idea which sellers, if any, can be trusted to supply something that won't self-immolate at the first opportunity. For lead acid batteries I normally use MDS, but I don't think they do phone batteries and I don't know of somewhere similar for phone batteries.
Any ideas?
They had this cool 360 degree camera thingy set up at Scotiacon and I rather enjoyed the result! Please enjoy this blue and silver fluff in STUNNING HD 3D RTX NEXT GEN RAYTRACING PARTICLE EFFECTS LENS FLARE TECHNOLOGY or something I dunno I just stood there while a camera whirred around me

@leaf @Scatterplot I feel that adoption of generative AI among programmers is higher than among English-speaking public.
At least, I don't see much pushback for my employer's rollout of generative AI.
@kakurady @leaf @Scatterplot I really do get the enthusiasm. Everyone who is busy gets to both look and feel like they're getting more done. It must be intoxicating for them. And everyone who is average feels like it's giving them an edge, even though all they've accomplished is to bring up the average with them.
And then there's me, still agonizing over the correctness and maintainability of what I write, being shown the activity feeds of the new average versus what my own activity looks like and being told by my boss, "I know this isn't a criteria we evaluate on at this time, but I want you to look at what upper management / HR sees, versus what your co-workers have started doing."
I've known for a long time that I don't exactly fit the mold of a professional developer in a commercial setting, where *everything* is secondary to "How much money are we gonna make/spend?" and "Is it done yet?", but the world doesn't have much opportunity for "careful and deliberate, low anxiety, but gets paid".
@leaf @Scatterplot “how come so many coders don't just hate LLMs for stealing their work the way that most writers and photographers and musicians do?”
- a long tradition of sharing code
- programming tools always involved some automation
- labour organization rare, workers tend to think themselves as “‘future founders’”
Despite this, many, perhaps most, programmers will see genAI disrupt their self-esteem, even those who successfully adopt it.

There are (sort of) two kinds of coders: those who see it as just a well-paying, stable job, and those who do it on nights and weekends because they love it, and it’s part of their identity.Anil Dash (me.dm by Medium.com)
Watch out above! It's the act of the twin arctic foxes!
Illustration for the NordicFuzzCon trading card collection #79. Their 2026 was Cirque Du Nord.
On the back of the card, it describes:
The flying trapeze is a common sight in circuses. It takes strength and coordination to perform such daring tricks and you better not be afraid of heights!
With precision and grace, they fly through the air, casually refusing to acknowledge gravity.
For this illustration I had to see and watch an absurd amount of references.

I feel the same about Copilot bothering me. This guy was truly living in the 2020s all the way back in 1996

"I grant you one wish," the magic fish said.
"To eat my mother's pancakes again, just like when I was a child."
"Are you sure?"
"You think it frivolous?"
"No. But to grant it I must send you back to the child you were, with no adult memories."
"Would my life change?"
"You ask that every time."
All I really want from life is to be a little computer gremlin and hide out in my little computer gremlin cave doing cave-dwelling-computer-gremlin things.
While also being some kind of dumb fluffy aminal idiot, I dunno.
I thought I was going to have to replace the keyboard on this laptop, which would be a huge pain because apparently the laptop is basically constructed by attaching things to the keyboard (!!!), but I spent a bit of time figuring out (with the help of this actually pretty good video) how to pull the keycaps off without breaking anything, cleaned out the gunk (and it turned out there was a lot of hair and dust), and now I no longer have to type my passwords multiple times before they are accepted! 😁 😁 😁
I'm quite surprised that worked, actually — from the symptoms, I had thought replacement would be the only fix. I've only done a few keys because it's awkward, but I suspect if I do more it might improve things further!

Geo (the bear), Storm (the osprey) and Sprout (the otter-wolf) enjoying a time of creativity, you may think some are more skilled than others but the truth is that everyone here is having a fun time equally and that's what matters.

"Hey, not now! I’m in a heated existential discussion with this dead-eyed plastic desk toy."
"Is… is something wrong, sir?"
This is a pretty accurate description of how I'd imagine any space fairing extraterrestrial life would see us.

Mapache. Raccoon. Mýval. Waschbär. Guaxinim. Rakun. Baskebjørn. Raton Laveur. Wasbeer. Tvättbjörn. Lavurso.
How else?
Very cute!!
The Mandarin Chinese word for raccoon is "huan xiong". It means means wash bear, like in many other languages. It's written 浣熊. It's written the exact same way in both traditional and simplified Chinese characters.
In Japanese, "狸" is the word for tanuki, who are masked cutie pies but are not related to the raccoon. The Japanese word for raccoon is more of a phonetic thing, either ラクーン (ra-kun) or あらいぐま (araiguma). In kanji, it can be written the same as in Chinese, 洗熊.
The progression of fandom:
- Niche: I had no idea other people liked this
- Growth: Oh wow, lots of cool people!
- Mainstream: ".. hey why are there normies here.. why is there vomit in the potted plants.."
- Burnout: "yeah this isn't fun anymore"
- Marketplace: "... why is the Dealer Den all Funkopops and Aliexpress tat"
- Zombie: "I don't know anyone who actually goes to the cons any more"
- Living Death: "Everyone chill is in a private IRC but all they talk about is the fandom being cack"
Heard about an hour ago that @Bycats4cats - Snap E. Tiger - passed away. I'll miss him; I wasn't staying in as close a touch with him the last couple of years.
Here he is back in 2002.
Yeah, someone else imparted the news in a local group, of the passing of @Bycats4cats.
I never interacted with him directly, but -- if I'm remembering right and not crossing my memory wires -- I do remember seeing him from the old FURSUIT email group days, and just onward from there, from the LiveJournal fursuit group to the WIP Zone group on TG.
He certainly seemed to be connected to a lot of folks. And so, yeah, his unexpected passing certainly appears to have been felt across a wide swath of the community.
Rest in peace.
The mechanic removed the back plate and inhaled through pursed lips. "Who did this?"
"I did," the robot said.
"How?"
"I took one arm off, put in a wireless interface so I could still use it, and put it in a vice, then turned-"
"OK. Why?"
"I needed fixing."
"You are allowed to ask for help."
Justice for the Queen!!!
(thank you)
I would imagine show to the queen. "The most beautiful person" is non-gendered. Also, the person to whom they are beautiful has no stated gender or sexual identity.
