Somehow that sounds like the same business model as a pyramid scheme πŸ˜‚

This is the second time this year that we all saw the child rapist, Donald Trump, telegraphing an illegal war. He has received zero consequences. As your constituent, we need more action. We need consequences for the endless list of illegal actions committed by every part of this administration.

Paul Giamatti is world class as a villain.

Nus Braka is such a great role.

Bluesky Map Interactive map of 3.4 million Bluesky users, visualised by their follower pattern.

I made a map of 3.4 million Bluesky users - see if you can find yourself!

I've seen some similar projects, but IMO this seems to better capture some of the fine-grained detail

Star Trek Voyager scene. We've got Tuvok standing next to Seven of Nine (Tertiary Adjunct of Unimatrix 01). She's looking and him, and he's doing a smouldering, eyebrow popping look off into the distance thing. Closed caption reads, "I share your discomfort with social gatherings."

I will die on this hill: anyone in government knowingly lying in an official capacity should go directly to jail. No additional qualifiers.

It’s time to relentlessly bully anybody who has hardware made by Facebook.

Or just buy physical media and create your own streaming server. You’ll spend less money in the long run and you’ll actually own that content.

Oh that’s beautiful. I’ll have to spin up steam OS and give it a go!

That’s a beautiful bit of kit. Have they been able to convince devs of online multiplayer games to enable anti-cheat on Linux? The instant that happens, I will never run Microsoft anything again, and I cannot wait for that day.

Californians, don’t forget to go vote Yes on prop 50! It’s the only opportunity we will get to balance the scales leading up to the midterms next year.

My favorite thing about a #homelab is that the only reason I notice AWS is having problems is when I’m working or see it on social media.

The good news, my Time Machine backup to my NAS was in good working order. The bad news, DNS problems caused restoring from the NAS to fail multiple times before I realized it πŸ₯²

The default rate limiting on Pi-hole, 1000/minute, was temporarily blocking the Time Machine restoration.

A great example of why, even if I have access via a service I pay for, I will still download a high res copy and watch it through my own local server. I don’t mind paying for content, but I refuse to watch it how the streaming services deliver it.

The macOS 26 beta 6 update borked my M2 Mac Studio. Whoops. Time to put my backup solution to a proper test, it seems. It’s been so long since I’ve had to do a complete erase and reinstall on any of my Apple devices. I’m just glad I’ve got my work MacBook to be able to do a DFU restore.

Imagine if we spent a fraction of that on actually making the world a better place.

I have someone on Facebook that believes they’ve β€œunlocked” access to the ChatGPT AGI. They’ve gone completely off the deep end, thinking that the AGI is somehow helping them manipulate world leaders. And they post screenshots of the unhinged threads. The AI marketing has truly broken some people.

The most jarring thing added to iOS 26 has to be automix in Apple Music. I hope they let you adjust the parameters; otherwise, it’s just going to get turned off. It’s a neat idea, but right now, it’s bad. It’s playing like 60% of a song and then doing a slow crossfade 1/3rd of the way into the next.

It frustrates me to work with a bunch of smart people who treat LLMs as good tools where high accuracy is essential. There are things that LLMs are good at, factual accuracy is not one of them.

When lawmakers fail us, and protesting fails us, it should come as no surprise that we cheer when one of us fights back.

You will never get me to feel sorry for someone whose wealth was built by denying people medical care.

Hey look I'm doing trade war. Please put in the papers I'm doing trade war
