The future for my video gaming is indie games and retro games. Valheim and Doom. I’m set. No need to pay $70+ in the future for a game built by a dudes prompt.

Ted Lasso season 4 was fun overall. It was good to see everyone back together. I wouldn’t mind a season 5.

Finished the Credit problem for CS50 week 1. Having done the Luhn algorithm now in both Python and C, shew C is way more manual. My solution was over 80 lines in C, and I think my Python solution was around 25-30 lines. #cs50

Going down memory lane watching clips from Community on YouTube. I miss that show. It was so good and NBC didn’t appreciate it like they should have. I hold out a little hope still that the movie actually happens. #Community #SixSeasonsAndAMovie

#Browns 3-0 since the birth of my son. Y'all I think there might be something there. He has successfully overcome the NFL script, bad officiating, and an honest attempt by our QB to sabotage the game.

ESPN's new dark mode layout is nice. It looks good on a desktop browser, which seemingly is rare these days on sports sites.

Yeah. Defense, as bad as it was, wasn't the biggest problem today. We all know it.

Garbage-time stat padding will unfortunately allow Monken to talk about "all the positives we can work from" as he commits to starting Watson for the next decade, and Jimmy Haslam stands in the corner smiling proudly and what he's done. #Browns

Everyone. Literally everyone in the city of Cleveland and beyond knew what would happen if you started Watson. Except one head coach, who is now finding out the hard way. #Browns

If I hacked Hugging Face or Ruby Gems, I'd be in a lot of trouble and probably go to prison. But if OpenAI does it, it's great marketing!!! 😀

Been on @bsky.app for awhile, as long as the public access has been available. Still grateful for the default feed being “following” and not some “for you” algorithm. I’ve avoided a lot of junk that made Facebook and X awful at the end.

An old manager of mine described it like an airplane. Taking off, your at max thrust to get off the ground and get height. Then you start to level out and you scale back the thrust. You’re going faster now and you’re higher up, but the engine power is less.

I feel like the commercials for social media tech companies (I.e. Meta, TikTok) are our generations versions of those cigarette commercials from the 60s and 70s.

It seems like all the new AI models came out at the same time. Mythos/Fable 5.1, Astra, and Gemini 3.8. And I still have trouble keeping all their names and numbers together and remembering differences. #AI

I like the UI and how customizable it is. Also I don’t know how but they stop all pre-video ads. YouTube, Amazon, Netflix, all of it. And it doesn’t affect the playback. It won’t last forever but I love it right now. FF is still awesome though.

That being said, I LOVE Vivaldi. It’s probably the best browser I’ve ever used. I appreciate Mozilla for Firefox and what they bring to the web ecosystem and still try to use them too, but Vivaldi is my favorite these days.

Good post. I don’t disagree either. I use Firefox Focus on mobile and am trying desktop again. I did turn the AI stuff off though. www.newsonaut.com/articles/han...

I created my first AI Discord bot that connects to Llama 3.2 to talk with you! I had been wanting to do this for awhile, so I sat down over the span of a few days to read, learn, and build. kyaaron.github.io/aaron-blog/#... #ai #coding #learning #discord

Very excited for RFK Racing (not named after the guy) and Ryan Preece who get a HUGE win at Daytona today. Good to see the team back in the winners circle. And yes I feel I have to always clarify now that it's not named after the guy. Frustrating but that's how it goes. #nascar

Most players played like they really wanted that roster spot. Great game to watch. And mad props to DG who took advantage of every opportunity this game. What a half he had. #Browns

Three things that #NFL officiating still fails to define and call with any sense of stability: pass interference, roughing the passer, and what an actual catch is. They just can't get it right.

Aaron @aaronmccollum.bsky.social · 25/08/2026
There comes a time when booing is appropriate. When a team or player crosses the line to abysmal, with the cost of attending sports games these days, it’s appropriate. And the Browns blew past that line. I’m all in on the fans who want better. #Browns

So after I posted that I saw where they can’t cut him or they lose money next year or something. Okay. Put him at 3QB lol.

Aaron @aaronmccollum.bsky.social · 23/08/2026
I’m good with that. The team has been awful since his signing and was only good when a different QB was there lol. It will be refreshing when he’s gone, even if it means another rebuild or whatever.

Aaron @aaronmccollum.bsky.social · 23/08/2026
Cut Watson. Don’t even have him as a backup. Gabriel or Green can be QB2. I know his contract is guaranteed and all. Pay him and cut him. #Browns

I usually don’t go after @npr.org for bad posts, but asking what AI can learn in this situation is not the right question.

It could be. I’m not sure if in the UK it’s still on TV. I believe internationally, YouTube is their partner now. On a recent podcast they said they were happy with the current setup. But again, not sure if it’s the same thing as say a Netflix show. It’s the only show I watch on YouTube.

Taskmaster puts their episodes on YouTube. I’m not sure if it’s classified as a “show” but they update it with new seasons and new episodes weekly as it drops.
