Once upon a time I considered getting a Keychron M6 8K mouse as an MX Master alternative because I too dislike the Logitech bloatware-nagware. But eventually I went with that locally-produced Pressplay "gaming-oriented" lightweight mouse I've been using lately.

Quite an interesting list for 1979; kinda having a hard time picking just five or even 25...

Also I spotted this old screenshot I took some time ago. Can't even remember where or whom I "stole" it from. But I feel it still reflects of the mood of Public Combative Social Media today. #DeadInternetTheory #WhyWeCantHaveNiceThings #ScreamingPastEachOther

Me. I'm afraid of playing this game. Yes I'm afraid this could exacerbate my own anger issues. Maybe it can help others, and in that case more power to you. I'd rather just sketch more deathly drawings, I think. Or something.

"Consumed by darkness" - Own work, 2023. A disembodied mouth consuming a human person/figure. Black, white, and gray.

Ars Technica reports: "I'm told this yellow was a big hit with the Chinese media." And personally speaking yeah I kinda like this color better than the traditional Ferrari red or the sky blue. arstechnica.com/cars/2026/05...

I came across an interesting read of the Star Wars narrative universe, just a few hours ago on one of the currently many alt-Twitters of the World...

Sleepysavior at Threads: "Far, far too many people have put Star Wars on a pedestal of nostalgia and disconnected themselves from what Star Wars actually is.
A campy, pulp fiction, retro-futuristic, diesel punk, spaghetti western, samurai, fantasy, space opera where a guy learned space magic from a ghost and a puppet so he could fight his cyborg dad with the help of a tribe of teddy bears."

So I heard that Trump has declared the Iran War is over*...

Spoof of John Lennon & Yoko Ono "War Is Over!" campaign from the 1960s, with Donald Trump & Pete Hegseth taking their place. The poster they hold reads, "For Legal Purposes: War in Iran Over! -- if you want it. Happy Easter from Donald & Pete". The background shows pluming smoke from burning ships & buildings.

"Menurutnya, KRL sempat berhenti karena adanya gangguan karena ada kereta yang dari arah berlawanan, mengalami insiden tabrakan dengan sebuah mobil taksi. Di saat sedang berhenti, KA Argo Bromo Anggrek yang melaju dari arah belakang langsung menghantam rangkaian KRL."

MAGA-hat cartoon-heads synchronized in saying, "This is why Trump needs a ballroom"

Lex Luthor socmed rage-monkeys (from James Gunn's "Superman") typing out, "This is why we need a ballroom!"

Literally a bunch of parrots (the bird) yelling, "This proves we need a ballroom!"

*Trump press conference immediately after the shooting, with JD Vance, Pete Hegseth, Kash Patell all smiles* "The theatre kid in me loves seeing these post-show vibes" "Is there anything better than hanging with the cast after the show went perfectly?"

I tried to get Gemini to render the folded position over and over again, but it just got crazier and crazier... 😅

Ferdinand F. Zebua@ferdizebua· Apr 26

I've added one more folding e-Bike idea... (The 'realistic' render made with assistance from Gemini of course... while the digital sketch I made myself in Krita)

Explaining the folded and unfolded positions I'm thinking of...

Lol... :"))

@AstorAaron at X: "Péter Magyar" is an almost too-perfect Hungarian name. It'd be like a guy named "Johny America" running for President of the United States.

One semi-unconventional opinion I have though, is that I also like the "Worm-Ball" logo. But then my taste does somewhat tend towards the slightly less conventional, such as that I like Durian-Chocolate Ice Cream, and that I think Avocado Milk Coffee is just fine as a dessert-beverage...

A mashup of the Meatball insignia with the Worm logotype. The 'NASA' written in the middle of the ball, originally in a serif font, is replaced with the Worm logotype.

Ferdinand F. Zebua@ferdizebua· Apr 6

Also it's nice to know that the two designs are effectively royalty free... (...as are many official US government diagrams, graphic designs, and photographs etc.) (so long as the use doesn't misrepresent the US government etc., etc.) #Artemis2 #MoonMission2026 #AppliedGraphicDesign

Ferdinand F. Zebua@ferdizebua· Apr 6

I've known for a long time that the NASA logotype is nicknamed "the Worm", and the logo "the Meatball"; but I've only realized today that they're *both* officially in-use branding at the same time (Meatball as official logo, and the Worm as supporting element) www.threads.com/@regard/post...
