This is also why they are in support of #ABA, #conversion therapy, denying #trans kids #puberty blockers, putting #cops in #school, destroying the #education system, refusing to pay for #schoollunches, #wars & #genocides that kill swathes of #children overseas, those "troubled #teen" camps & #child marriage.
Yesterday I made progress combining 2 examples in C on an ESP32 using ESP idf to create a liquid temperature monitor with a small 1306 oled.
Then the frustration started, I wanted to convert a float to a text portion to display it.
Nah error error ….
I save you the frustration but the links I found to help me out did lead other or similar errors.
Probably due to my lack of C knowledge but also curious why such a simple conversion is not simply part of the language or a library
Anyone can share some directions I could use? Apart from learning C of course 
The Ecclesiological Investigations Unit of the AAR invites papers on:
1) Ecclesiologies of Freedom. How does churchly existence intersect with human #Freedom?
2) The #Ecclesiology of Project 2025 and similar versions worldwide. #Project2025
3) #Deconversion or #Conversion to "None". What makes people "deconvert" or reject religious institutional affiliation?
Check it all out!

"Going to end today with this.
Don't let them take your joy away.
You get one life. Live it, out loud, in the moment, without regrets.
I survived #conversion therapy. I can survive #DonaldTrump.
And so can you. Trust me, so can you." ~ Sheryl Weikal

Just posted an answer to a question about color conversions with https://thi.ng/color where I'm also talking about CSS color serialization (incl. code examples) of colors defined in newer spaces (e.g. `oklch()`). The library still defaults to CSS Color Level 3 for CSS serialization, but L4 is supported too[1] and depending on color space and target is always picking the path of least conversions needed:
https://github.com/thi-ng/umbrella/discussions/489#discussioncomment-10375237
[1] Is it maybe safe and time to default to L4 already by now? (already been supporting since early 2023...)
#warmongers assemble for I have a #WH40k related question! (Rebooting very much appreciated)
It's about #gorkamorka
The silliness of the game appeals to me and would like to build a single mob.
What kind of models and vehicles should I get to be able to field several different builds? What is a reliable and not too costly source of vehicles, models and #conversion bits?
Useful snippet for computing pixel dimensions from paper sizes (both metric (DIN) and (US) imperial presets included) using https://thi.ng/units, an elaborate & powerful unit converter/calculator/DSL for all SI dimensions:
Full list of predefined constants:

![TypeScript source code for converting paper sizes to pixel dimensions:
import { quantity, mul, DIN_A4, US_ARCH_A } from "@thi.ng/units";
// compute pixel dimensions from paper size preset & resolution
// all common DIN sizes included (also as landscape)
const [W, H] = mul(DIN_A4, quantity(300, "dpi")).deref();
// [2480.315, 3507.874]
// ...or using various common US sizes (also as landscape)
const [W, H] = mul(US_ARCH_A, quantity(300, "dpi")).deref();

Updated, simplified example, and fully commented now! New library releases later today... (Still checking what else might need to be done for updating the https://thi.ng/geom-axidraw package to support complex polygons and paths with holes/sub-paths... Adding support for these shape types has been quite a large, multi-package update, but long overdue...)

New demo (and last new test case) for the upcoming https://thi.ng/geom release (and related packages): Here parsing a SVG path, converting to an SDF, deforming the SDF and sampling/converting the SDF back into SVG at multiple contour levels... all in just a few lines of code!

If it is so easy to "#trans the children" as #conservatives often argue, and if it has been proven again and again that #conversion therapy doesn't work...
Then maybe being #cisgender and #heterosexual isn't so natural or normal. 
Very touched tonight by the Shabbat service I'm watching via zoom (from Temple B'nai Israel of #Oklahoma City) --- the Torah reader tonight it someone who is celebrating the 10th anniversary of his conversion.
While it is not traditional to ever speak of a person's conversion, I personally like what is happening tonight because it is assuming that conversion is something to be celebrated, not something to be embarrassed about.
