Introducing the Velveeta™ AI Pump-action Cheese Warmer and Dispenser. Don't let the heat generated from those tokens go to waste with the Velveeta™ AI Pump-action Cheese Warmer and Dispenser. I am looking for $50 million in investment.
A low fidelity diagram of a GPU labelled "GPU with AI inside". Attached to the GPU is a box with the Velveeta logo on it with a push-down pump and nozzle coming out the top.

A photo of two dogs, one is standing up looking happy, the other is lying on the ground somehow looking comically wafer thin ­– as if no more than a sheet of paper placed on top of the grass. The standing up dog is labelled "status.codeberg.org" the flat dog is labelled "codeberg.org"

Every time I see these stupid laundry capsules at the supermarket I think "Oh cool, they got C merch!" before I am bitterly disappointed when I realise what they are.
A product listing for "clean laundry capsules tropical 30pack". The product photo is of a bag with a large letter "C" logo that looks similar to the C programming language logo

I love that having any accessibility options set in GNOME adds this little ghoulie to the top bar

I keep on thinking about this tweet I posted on my (since deleted) Twitter... because, I didn't make a viral Tumblr post about a horse in 2019, but I did make a viral Tumblr post about a horse in 2023, and I keep wondering if I'm four years off and 2028 is going to be curtains for me
A tweet from James Ansley on 29/03/2023 reading:
The year is 2024. Law enforcement has shown up at my door with a warrant for my arrest. Copilot's new "accountability model" has listed a joke tumblr post I made about a horse in 2019 as a primary source for someone else's buggy software completion that ended up killing thousands

Currently working on a project that feels like it will go nowhere, and my terminal is just rubbing salt in the wound.

Top text: most people rejected his message.

A member of the crowd shouts back: shut up!

Bottom text: They hated Jesus because He told them the truth.
