If I nap, I will nap for hours, so I only do it if I absolutely must.

I used to sneeze quietly when I was young. The I got old and my sneezes have become thunderous.

I don't actually *see* the apple with my eyes, but I visualize it in my brain as if I can see it. It's like the eyes do all the light gathering and my brain does all the interpreting. I use the interpreting part to create whatever I want without having to rely on the light gathering.

I'm a 1 (or maybe even a 0.5?) and I conceptualize it. I can change any attributes of it, move it around, animated it, etc. It's kinda like having AR goggles that work whether my eyes are open or closed and I have full control of what I want to see.

Supposedly the 'Engaged Views' value is the same, so you can compare that as a reference.

If it's successful, they'll learn that they can turn real prison into a reality-TV show. COPS meets Running Man.

My dad made sure to teach me how to drive a stick in an early 80s Chevette. After mastering starting from an uphill stop, I never needed to drive stick again. 🤷‍♂️

That... doesn't even make sense. There's no population there. The nearest town is Jackson, and there'd be no point building the stadium so far away. 🤔

Can someone just train some Ai agents to hack into Ai data center cooling systems and just turn them off? 🤔 Tell them to make it look like the temps are just fine, actually, and that all the servers can just run at maximum power.

My guess is he's trying to pull what he did with the ballroom and claim it's for national security so he can use tax money to fund it and bypass Congress.

I had no idea Wendy's ever changed their yellow packaging. Guess that says something for how long it's been since I've eaten at a Wendy's.

This mis-ordering of frames is the animation error that most bugged me in 1986 and still to this day. I've always wished they'd fix it eventually.

Yeah, it nailed me.
The dialect map puts me in Oregon, accurately.

🤔 Is it in the Startup Apps? Without uninstalling it are you able to at least disable it from startup? Or is that also privileged?

TeeTurtle has good quality if you want something cute. 80s Tees are hit-or-miss on the quality (I've had some where the printing just disintegrates upon washing, and others have held up for years).

I'm seeing more and more people just accepting whatever Ai tells them. Even from people who *know better*. I'm thinking that the only people who should be allowed to use Ai are those who would never.

I wonder if one of the reasons I avoid Ai is because I'm so uncomfortable with compliments. The sycophantic LLMs are such a turn-off. 🤮

Can we stop calling her a "TERF" now, since she's clearly not a feminist?

I had this in rural Oregon in grade school. It wasn't fancy, like they have in Nordic countries, but we learned basic bike safety and rode around cones giving hand signals. A police officer gave us certificates.

I feel like the second one, with the DM reaching out, expresses the title the best. The DM (the author?) is actively inviting the reader to join in. It's more engaging. The others feel more passive.

Did he discover that attracting adherents to the cult he's trying to start is easier when catering to the right than the left?

The difference is negligible. I suppose if you were a super-duper power-artist you might notice a difference, but for the vast majority of creators they perform equally well.

Because he's not performing so well at them and they're waiting to see when he falls below a certain threshold.

If you're continuing to explore the area, everyone will recommend visiting Crater Lake. But I'll also recommend the far less known Newberry National Volcanic Monument. There's a massive obsidian flow, nice lakes, and some fantastic views at the top of Paulina Peak.

Yeah, you're deep in rural area there. The closest "city" is Medford (aka "Methford") due south of there along I-5. Ashland is a bit south of Medford. At least you're surrounded by beautiful nature. 🌲

Trent @clankypants.bsky.social · 30/05/2026
There's a bright blue blip in Ashland, but that's pretty much it for Southern Oregon. Bend is the blue spot in Central Oregon. The Coast varies. The Willamette Valley (from Eugene up to Portland) is very blue, and where 80% of the population lives.

There are a lot, but just about all the ones that are popular charge. And Oregon just added a bunch of previously free parks to the paid list at the beginning of the year.

All the State parks are. Parking is $12 for out-of-staters, $10 for locals. Counties all have their own park prices.

It will destroy creativity. It will crush joy. It will eliminate jobs. ... Buuuut, it will make rich people slightly more wealthy, so we just gotta do it.
