iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

This reminds me of Gilda Radner’s Emily Litella character, who would go off on a rant about something she misheard, and then when she’s corrected simply says, “Never mind.”

Trump’s new AI website is kinda fun, it turns out.

Can the president use taxpayer funds to air his old campaign ads on TV?

No. Federal appropriations law has long barred using taxpayer funds for political advertising.

I don’t know if this is what’s going on here, but trying to get authors to pony up money to get published is a common scam.

Aha. I didn’t know anything about the story other than what I gathered from the screenshot.

I don’t understand stealing bitcoin and demanding ransom (presumably paid in bitcoin) for its return. Why not just steal the ransom’s worth of bitcoin and go away? Or send back the bitcoin minus the ransom?

Every pilot has salvaged an approach he shouldn’t have, but being 585 feet high when you should be at 1,000 feet is *nowhere near* something that can be saved.

Even less chance that he could work the meaning out from “hydro” and “nym.”

Hydronyms is a made-up Democrat word, like affordability.

I had the same thing. I tried adding it back, and it failed. But just now, several hours later, I tried again, and it’s back in my Apple Wallet.

It looks like they just used a Porter Airlines photo they happened to have on file. Porter flies an E195 on that route.

Giving away the number of words is itself a bit of a spoiler. It tells someone near Queen Bee what length words he should be looking for.

Kevin, perhaps you could start a separate feed tailored to my specific tastes and preferences.

Now I’m afraid to look into the comments on your 🐝 posts, at least until the next day. I’d already gotten the spoiled word today, so there’s no asterisk on my stats.

I wonder if he’s offended when the government tells you where the hurricane shelters are when a category 5 storm is approaching or what the safest course of action is when there’s a tornado warning?

And they certainly can’t execute you and then retroactively justify it by finding drugs they didn’t even know about when they executed you.

Methamphetamine that they found out about only after they’d already shot him.

It boggles my mind, that media presents Trump as a real serious official, political scientists discuss his decisions, pundits talk about his policies. Meanwhile he loudly declared to the world he made an amazing discovery that "dumb" has a "b" in it.

Actually, I think (at least with iOS 27, the beta of which I’m running now) it’s possible to do this with a Shortcut.

The iPhone needs a focus mode that will allow only that one thing through.

And they’d have to explain to him what a noun is first. Maybe he could watch the old Schoolhouse Rock video about nouns.

I fed your prompt into Claude and got something just as banal. "They're destroying our country with their woke socialist agenda. The media won't tell you the truth. We need real patriots to take back America and defend our God-given freedoms before it's too late. Wake up!"
