Got my copy of Shagohod's A Curse that Hides the Door on vinyl. Love this album. Even better than Tin, Gold, Lead and Blood, in my opinion. If I were still doing Rocksmith charts, I'd totally chart this one.

In a fit of activity, I cleaned up my Discord. I have to wonder how much RAM I just freed up by leaving that many servers. Probably enough to matter.

The Bitwarden extension for Firefox is utter garbage. After about half a day of running, here it is, using massive amounts of CPU. I kill the process, the extension reloads, and history repeats itself. It didn't do this under Chrome. Too bad I hate Google more than I hate restarting a process.

Sometimes, I discover things about the world that I wish I didn't know, and will never be able to forget. Today was one of those days. Yes, I'm being vague on purpose. But the thought stands.

Took yesterday off sick. Got in this morning before anyone else on my team. One of my contractors arrived, and immediately reminded me that we're under a lot of stress and a tight deadline. Another arrived, laughed, and said he might as well go home because I beat him in. I LOST MY SHIT.

Oh, this is perfect. There’s an AI service called Delulu, which is hilariously ironic, because all generative AI is delulu. #delulu #LLM #irony

The ultra-wealthy keep trying to pit the rest of us against each other with scare tactics ("communists!" "men in the ladies room!!" "brown people!!!" "drag queens!!!!") to keep us from noticing that our real problem is THEM. They want us to fight *any* war—except a class war. Happy Labor Day.

Very seriously considering an Android phone (that I can de-Google to some extent). Anyone have recommendations on specific brands/models? I'm a power user, I will likely root it, and I play games (lots of them).

Here are some ways to “De-Google” your life. Other suggestions welcome. If this latest corrupt capitulation to Trump isn’t enough for you, read @doctorow.pluralistic.net’s Enshittification chapter on how Google killed competition and then deliberately made their products worse to increase revenue.

Photo from my iOS copy of Google Maps, as of this morning. I am in the process of moving off of all Google platforms. Yay for choice, sort of: I own a bunch of Nest products, and I need to figure out if they can move to anything non-Google. IT'S LAKE ONTARIO. Period. #lakeontario #neverlakeamerica

3.5 hours live last night. 0 chatters. 0.7 average viewers. Yeah, I think I'm done with Twitch. Between the AI bullshit and the complete lack of anyone giving a shit, this is a net minus for my mental health. It ain't worth it if "hanging out" with people means standing in the corner, alone.

The cafeteria at my workplace is now using AI slop to advertise menu specials. Whyyyy? Le sigh. Another place I won't support anymore. For the prices they're charging, they can afford to do this shit properly.

I don't know how Geddy and Alex can keep their shit together when performing the Neil Peart tribute songs. I would absolutely, 110%, not be able to stop myself from losing it. It's essentially a eulogy for their best friend, on stage, in front of 10,000 people, while playing music and singing.

Decided to install Windows Server 2025 on my Gaming PC instead of Windows 11, mostly because I can team the network connections, but also because FSCK COPILOT. There is much, much less AI integration in Windows Server. For now, anyway.

I love this song. And I hate this song. I can't play it without having a thousand thoughts. I wish it had never been written. I wish it didn't have to be written. But I'm thankful for its message, even if, a decade later, so many still aren't listening. Thank you, @stevenwilsonhq.bsky.social.

ngl, the vast, vast majority of positive interactions I've had with people on bsky have been with trans people, and I love this. The exception is a single trans musician who blocked me for an unknown reason. It sucks, but I have no way of asking her why without violating boundaries, soooo... bleh.

What a fun weekend. My daughter punched me right in the gut when I was picking her up from art class. I don't care what internet randos think. I care what my kids think, and she said, without saying it, "stop growing your hair, you'll always look bald". It sucked. So, I shaved my head again.

Mia's got a point. I'll offer Under the Red Cloud, Queen of Time, and Halo by Amorphis as a contender for second place. Although, in all honesty, if I could ignore Halo and put Borderland in there instead, I would.

This is the last straw. Not that I should have needed yet another red flag from Alphabet, but this is as good as any. I just deleted my entire message history from gmail. It was going to serve as a backup in case Proton shit the bed at some point, but, no, I'll set up a local IMAP server for that.
