So I blazed through @clpolk.com’s ‘Even Though I Knew The End’ in a day.
Wonderful story.
Read it if you like an old time radio detective story that also includes magic.
yesss this is exactly what i was shooting for
No no! I'm glad you talked about the difference, I am just limiting my minutes on bsky so I just heart things in a rush
New & Notable: Soulful house music from this British-born Nigerian artist delivers shining anthems for dark times.
it's a place name. there was a mass shooting there recently and it's turned out that the shooter had been talking to openAIs chatbot about it beforehand. i don't have more details than that.
i mean i'm just going to be disdainful.
I read a bit faster than a 2400 baud modem produced text on my C64. It's probably better to hush and wonder before letting your mouth get you noticed by the ones who know that Pine Is Not Elm.
I bought an open box google pixel 9 and installed GrapheneOS on it. I am liking it so far!
Oh it's Motorola? Awesome.
i think it might work!
Here is my huge sigh of relief for the day! @stephanieburgis.bsky.social is the first review I've heard about and I'm glad it's a good one
is it snowy?
Aaaaahhhh! I was worried that I tried to cram too much in there
Aaah! Omg I am so glad thank you! I have been nervous about this one.
a public utility does not need to turn a profit. this is intentional.
I am all for it, honestly. Let's give em contextuality to enjoy
(I don't know why progressives would think that. 40 years ago was in the middle of the AIDS crisis. Olof Palme was assassinated because of his progressive politics. Martial rape was still legal. Reagan and Thatcher were still in power. Cops bombed an entire city block in Philadelphia.)
I did not know a theremin could do this.
If you are in line to post a Kristi Noem getting fired joke - STAY IN LINE.
I am not done this but I LOVE it. I can feel its influence settling in.
A list of absolute bangers (and one of my books, too!)
Tuesday and Wednesday mornings are generally good times to call the CRA if you have questions and they will assign you a specialist to answer questions if you need (I had a GST problem a few years ago.)
perfect representation of the vicious asininity of our persecution and the banal mechanisms of its implementation: these regular-ass people, the staff at the dmv, dutifully inflicting whatever absurd degradation they're told, no matter how blatantly, cruelly pointless. would you do that? will you?
i'm not an economist but if 900 people can afford to fund $3,000 checks to damn near everyone else in america and still be insanely fuckin rich afterwards maybe they have too much fuckin money
If I get one more email about Claude or whomever the fuck.
1. I wanna read my own shit.
2. I wanna write my own shit.
3. I wanna pay an editor to talk me through my own shit.
4. I don’t want that AI bullshit. If you don’t use it, you lose it. And I want to hold my brain as long as possible.
One of the worst things of the 21st century has been how we stopped teaching rhetoric in schools enough , to separate it from charisma and stage presence
Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM
If you can provide $3k checks for the entire middle class of America by taxing 900 people a little more, not only should you do it, but you should take it as a signal that your monetary system is broken
These hips are liars.
I don't want to see him do anything. I want him to fade into obscurity.
