following the infamous 2020 report into discrepancies in (popular YouTuber) Dream's world record attempt: mcspeedrun.com/wp-content/u... it looks like the MC community has found a new technique ("Jolt Cracking") to discover more cheating in his videos: youtu.be/WsWNWzSwVUA

The infamous September 11 photo of an aide leaning down to speak into George W. Bush's and inform him with text overlaid that says "Sir, a second form of RNG analysis developed to detect Dream cheating has hit the Minecraft community"

i'd really love to see more publicly broadcast roasts of Penny Wong like what Penny Mordaunt received recently rather than the past few decades of Crabb-esque image rehabilitation we've had from our media figures.

fancy car meets? i don't understand that sort of poor city behaviour since we have fancy private helicopter meets.

a photo taken from a third floor window looking out at a riverfront green space that has a collection of five private helicopters of different makes, models, and visual decoration. a collection of people walk around them, with some high end people moving vehicles around to shuttle the richy riches.

Spent a four day work junket in Cairns with Nikki, didn't get many photos because i was too in the moment (freaked out by how much geography there was) - went snorkelling on the great barrier reef - took my good hairspray and hairdryer, everyone loved the mohawk

a photo from a hotel balcony showing a tropical destination with lots of palm trees and houses and roads built to channel away rapid water accretion. in the distance there's tall hills and mountains but not that far in the distance and oh my god there's so many of them.

a marina full of boats on the ocean but right across the bay there's more land and immediately that land is devoured by massive hills and the clouds are so low because somehow we are both at sea level and near the penthouse of the tower of babel

a reverse mirror selfie? Az takes a selfie over their shoulder at the hotel mirror behind them showing off the back of their head and their tall, spiked high mohawk. they are wearing a mesh-backed singlet which shows off their decently shaped shoulders and part of a cute back tattoo consisting of the silhouettes of a crow and two panthers all following each other.

working on a project to add a Digital Elevation model to my Satisfactory server map but it was going to take ~28days to finish processing. asked myself "WWSD" (what would @shrydar.bsky.social do) and optimised it down to 2hrs

part of the map from Satisfactory with a red line and a single icon showing a truck traveling across part of the world. the map looks like a standard web map interface using WebGL to display it with a certain pitch so you can see the rise and fall of terrain.

a bit spotty in places where i lack data but a solid first draft.

when is GIS not GIS? when your only option for rain radar is a PNG! spent a few hours comparing landmarks and counting pixels until i could pick out my locale in the BoM weather radar and add it to my dashboard. obviously not going out now, that's fukt m8.

an old 4:3 LCD monitor that looks like it was nicked from bulk rubbish collection sits on a desk displaying a terminal interface. at the bottom are a few labels for time and temp but the majority of the display is taken up by an old-school looking graph plotting a series of shapes in either bright green and red squares or dull green and red dots, sort of like shapes on a map.

there's also two sine waves that are slightly out of phase going across the graph but they don't seem to serve any purpose except to look cool. which they do.

A bit belated but new month new meerkat on my amazing calendar from @shmouflon.scorpinc.social ! Puds covered in the evidence of his crimes (of which he is completely innocent)

a calendar open to July 2025 featuring a meerkat standing up but head and shoulders slumped forward rather than in traditional alert-spotting position for keeping an eye out for food trucks. possibly because of what looks like sand on the end of their nose and the corners of their eyes that is more likely to be delicious cinnamon sugar.

a caption says "Puds looking a little ashamed that he ate all the management meeting cinnamon donuts he was meant to deliver (he'd do it again)"

New month, new meer-goat!?! on my amazing calendar from @shmouflon.scorpinc.social ! Time to party like it's the 1880's!

A calendar open to June 2025 with the caption "My fur isn't white it's just reflective!"

The photo shows a goat poking her head between the balusters of a fence and perhaps bleating that caption at the cameraperson. Her tall horns are a good warning not to push the subject if people don't want to get headbutted around a bit, especially since her fur is definitely white despite appearances. There is none of the white, fox grey, or Mallen streaks of old age on this goat, definitely not, no sirree.

Big fan of how in Sand Castle (2017), Henry Cavill had a buzz cut and the world's worst beard and so angered everyone he promised never to do it again, keeping his promise in Argylle (2024) where he debuted a clean shaven face and the world's worst haircut.

Henry Cavill in Sand Castle (2017), dressed in US military gear with vest, short sleeved t-shirt, shemagh, and missing rank/name patches. He is covered in dirt and blood with a #2 clippers buzzcut and overgrown facial hair consisting of heavy sideburns and full chops/cheek/chin/philtrum/neck covereage. This is the look of someone who films FB rants in his lifted F150 while wearing Oakleys.

I cannot overstate how fuck ugly that beard is on 2013's "World's Sexiest Man".

Henry Cavill in Argylle (2024) wearing a forest green velour jacket with a high collar buttoned up completely, covering his neck. His face is clean shaven but his head has some monstrosity where a stylist has frankensteined a "sweetheart neckline" as a hairline that is spiked straight up. The voluminous effect and flat top nature of it is giving "80's synth band" while the clipped sides at about a #5 ruin any chance of that.

To top it off, the hairline at the temples have been finished with the surgical precision of a father with a new edge trimmer, truly a hairpiece of all time.

New month new meerkats on my amazing calendar from @shmouflon.scorpinc.social! I'm not holding the strata council hostage until they install zip lines but i'm not *not* holding the strata council hostage until they install zip lines.

A calendar opened to May 2025 with the caption "When are they installing a zip line?"

The photo shows a meerkat with their back turned to the camera perched on a rock, looking at another meerkat perched on all fours on a higher rock a distance too far to leap. They both seem to be pondering whether it's easier to jury-rig a setup or go with whatever plan other mid-sized residents of the apartment complex may have.

After all the media beat-ups, it's nice to see a down-to-earth chat from Gayle King after her recent trip.

A modified version of a famous ClickHole article in their Lifestyle section.

Incredible! We Asked These Astronauts What It’s Like To Be In Space
MARCH 27,2015
What’s it like to float hundreds of miles above the Earth’s surface? We asked seven astronauts to tell us everything.

Gayle King
A photo of Gayle King in her Blue Origin uniform during a press conference.

"You never know true beauty until you see Earth from space, or true terror until you hear someone knocking on the Blue Origin™ New Shephard™ door from outside. You look through the porthole and see an astronaut, but all your crew is inside and accounted for. You use the comm to ask who it is and she says she’s Katy Perry returning from a repair mission, but Katy is sitting right next to you in the command module and she’s just as confused as you are. When you tell the famous popstar this over the radio she starts banging on the door louder and harder, begging you to let her in, saying she’s the real Katy Perry. Meanwhile, the Katy Perry inside with you is pleading to keep the airlock shut so she can show off her tour setlist. It really puts life on Earth into perspective."

A calendar open to April 2025 with a photo of a meerkat perched in the fork of an upward-pointing branch, casually leaning against the support while alertly keeping their eyes on the horizon, scanning for delicious Easter treats with their sunglasses eyeshadowed eyes and listening out for interns on the egg hunt with dried apricot ears.

The caption says "Looking for scorpion tail and choc Easter eggs?"

New month new meerkat adventures on my amazing calendar from @shmouflon.scorpinc.social! Taking the time to watch a skyshow or just happy to be chillin' with friends.

A calendar opened to March 2025, it shows three meerkats, two of whom are staring up into the sky, indicative that the trick of the light that makes it appear to be day is actually just their pyrotechnical handiwork. A third meerkat looks around, having a lovely time just hanging out although confused at the lack of work on "Labour Day".

This line from @zitron.bsky.social's latest piece really cuts to the core of why the current genAI fad is not capable of taking jobs, but just (badly) commodifying parts of jobs to devalue the actual work done by employees: www.wheresyoured.at/pop-culture/...

The reality is that generative AI isn't good at replacing jobs, but commoditizing distinct acts of labor, and, in the process, the early creative jobs that help people build portfolios to advance in their industries
