“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”

“Yeah, Briggs, but the best players will still play at their best.”
Some will, but many won’t. The elite will have to waste their time playing nobodies, which is disheartening. They won’t try as hard. Why bother? They won’t have to. Even if elite teams still gather most of the top players, the mass quantity of poor quality teams drags everything down.

We’ve discussed the Expansion Team Effect many times. I’m always embarrassed to do so because it’s so simple it’s a truism. What’s weird about it is that, presented one way, everybody gets it, agrees with it and says, “No kidding.” Yet presented a second…

If you install FOSS apps from F-Droid, upgrade to version 1.19.0 because it finally adds support for Android's unattended updates API introduced in Android 12. This means F-Droid can update apps in the background (so long as you first installed those apps through F-Droid).
The update also adds Themed Icon support, which is nice. Here's F-Droid's blog post on the release.

TIL that mystery flavor candies are made whenever the factory switches to a different flavor. They don’t clean the lines when they switch so two flavors mix together. This avoids downtime and wastes product.

"Scientia potentia est" is a Latin aphorism that can be translated as "knowledge is
power" and is often attributed to Sir Francis Bacon.
In the Biblical Book of Proverbs, a proverb in a very similar wording can be found in Hebrew and is translated as:
“A wise man is strong, a
man of knowledge increaseth strength."
This sentence became more widespread around 1000 AD as it's seen in the Persian poet's Ferdowsi's Shanme, translated into English as "one who has wisdom is powerful".
The first known reference of the exact phrase appeared in the Latin edition of Thomas Hobbes' Leviathan published in 1668.

Is Disney Abandoning California?
There was an all hands emergency meeting at Disney Animation Studios Burbank. They started the meeting by telling the animators that no one at Burbank was being laid off. Which probably means that everyone is being laid off. It turns out that the Moana 2 movie that Bob Iger announced last night is going to be […]
