I can’t wait to see them all die at work because they can’t extract enough out of us. We’re paid too little for the pension system to work lmao

I’m going to take this opportunity to soapbox about YouTube Morphe

If you’re an android user, it’s the replacement for revanced. All the devs left revanced after a falling out with the lead maintainer so they hard forked revanced into morphe. Now it gets daily updates and is leagues ahead of revanced, where it gets the vast majority of dev attention.

Revanced is maintained by one angry guy now. People want to help but can’t deal with his attitude so he gets piecemeal PRs. He’s taken to stealing code from morphe without attribution, so the morphe team (unwisely IMO) DMCA’d revanced. It’s why there’s been no development for over a month. He can’t steal code (including typos lol) without violating the cease and desist.

If nothing changes revanced is going to be abandonware soon… It doesn’t have the dev attention morphe gets, and donations are moving to morphe now too…

There’s also a whole rant about how that lead dev for revanced is the main mod on the subreddit and bans anyone for saying “Morphe” “Morpheus” “M” .etc

Yes, saying “M” will get you permanently banned from there…

That’s their entire world view. They have to follow 613 rules from God, and lots of them believe that if there’s a loophole to how the rule is written that’s ordained by God as well, since he’s perfect he wouldn’t make mistakes with his own rules.

They do it to their most holy book… Everything else is fair game.

Clicksprings antikythra mechanism series is a fantastic deep dive into ancient Hellenic engineering, tool making, and manufacturing. He covers period accurate methods and tools, and constructs the entire thing using the same tools and techniques the original designer would have used.

For reference, he’s an Australian clockmaker, so the antikythra mechanism is kind of a masterpiece he’s been working on for a long time. His custom made grandfather clock was another good one to watch if you need more.
