GenAI does have many interesting uses (true), and also this neat technology is currently being rolled out in largely batshit insane ways by largely immoral ghouls unconstrained by either regulation or basic human decency (also true).

A 1944 map by geologist Harold Fisk charts a 40-mile stretch of the Mississippi River from Friars Point to Gunnison, Mississippi.

My ICQ UIN is 7231680. That number is burned into my consciousness. I inadvertently learned that you could see private conversations in public chat rooms when using Telnet instead of a browser on GeoCities. I can tell you the difference in audible dial-up handshakes between 1200, 2400, 14.4 kbps modems. I needed a edu email address to join Facebook after my university was admitted. We were here at the beginning. We made social media. You wouldn't be in my Top 8. I have usernames older than you.

On Saturday I'll be delivering a talk at TEDxManchester where I hope to live code music on the phones of all the audience like an orchestra using my new tech.

I'm both terrified (so much can go wrong) and excited (if it works it will be amazing!).

Fingers crossed...

Technocapitalists’ great trick is to make people who hate all this bullshit feel like they’re suffering from the same fogeys-not-coping-with-a-changing-world syndrome every generation succumbs to, rather than, say, just rejecting a rampant evil that seeks to rob us of our individuality and soul.

Okay I feel like this is going to come up a lot in the next 24 hours so let's just clear this up:

Ayatollah Khameini, the Iranian supreme leader allegedly killed today, is/was *not* the same person as Ayatollah Khomeini, the supreme leader who came to power in the 1979 revolution.

Came across the phrase "cognitive DDOS" to describe our present culture.

Understood instantly what it meant.

It took me a bit to figure out, but at this angle you can see there is now a transparent cone sticking way out into the shroud.

Head-on the lights look normal, but this cone combined with wind channels in the shroud is designed to keep snow off the lights!

First heard of this in Japan, cool to see

A comic of a bird singing about somebody eating their babies, and a crow responding that they did and they'd do it again.

And below them, it is a man listening to a cd of their conversation entitled "relaxing bird sounds"
