Why I scoff when people tell how much better AI is now than it was a year ago. Same search, just scrolling a little further down past the AI assist.

Started reading The Martian today for the first time. I've read both of his other books and really loved The Hail Mary Project (I liked Artemis too). But this one. There's no better feeling than reading a book that you can't hardly put down. My phone is going on hiatus for a bit.

Fun fact: I keep the wifi turned off on my phone. I pay more for my monthly phone service per month than I do for home internet, I'll be damned if I'm going to let them off the hook by letting them piggyback.

My last moments on @bsky.app Heading back to Texas where I will no longer have access. I miss it already.

Oh my. Visiting my daughter on Colorado and able to use @bsky.app for the first time in weeks! I live in Texas and have been shut out over a stupid age verification requirement that the app won't let me resolve. Just get an error message every time I try to follow their link to fix it.

I hope my Bluesky community appreciates these sunset pics as they cost me a butt-full of sand spurs to get.

It's weird. I find myself rooting for the Rockets to make a comeback so I'll get to see more Wemby.

Wife and I went for a walk tonight to watch the sunset. Wife (fumbling in her jacket): Ohhh. Found something! Me: Money? Wife: Better! A tootsie roll!

Bluesky has been killing it on the NBA trade news! Seeing it all here first before ESPN, X or any major sports news sites.

Quick reminder: if you come across a group of people who say "you're either with us or against us," the correct choice is "against." Always be against people like that.

Last night Pam and I went out to look at the sunset and take some pics. To our surprise there was an owl, perched in the tree across the street, also enjoying the beautiful sunset. There was also a smaller bird who was extremely upset about the owl camping out in HIS (or her) tree.

So much of what's wrong with the world today is because people act like this. For real. Not as a joke.

I finally added a new chapter to my novella "A Gnome's Tale". Keep in mind it's a first draft and will likely need several revisions as I move forward. Any feedback is always appreciated. joemoreland.substack.com/p/a-gnomes-t...

Can we please acknowledge that last year the Pacers' big weakness was closing out close games and they have turned that into one of their biggest strengths the last few months? #gopacers

This is from Saturday. Waymo got sideways in the driveway at the Fairmount and just sat there blocking all incoming traffic. The guy standing there is from the hotel. He was trying to talk to a customer service rep from Waymo, but it was an Uber, and we know how that works out. #uber #waymo

Creighton and St. Johns suck. They are both dead to me. #marchmadness

BBC just released damning research on AI assistants' news accuracy. Results: 51% of AI responses had significant issues. 19% introduced errors when citing BBC. 13% misquoted or made up BBC content entirely. 🤐🤐 www.bbc.co.uk/aboutthebbc/... via @ezraeeman.bsky.social

AI has started the process of destroying options for humans getting healthier. The war has begun. #aiwar #tesla

New conspiracy theory: The last 3 older shows I've attempted to watch have all disappeared off the platform I'm binging them on right as i start the final season. They then reappear on a new platform i don't currently subscribe to that i suspect is owned by the first platform. Anyone else?

Prediction: The Clippers are going to go on a hot streak and win 14 or 15 of their next 18 games and roll into the NBA All-Star Weekend in 3rd or 4th place in the Western Conference. They'll rest players in March and fall back to 6th and then a first round exit as injuries mount. #nostradamus

Just looked at #nba scores. @dallasmavs.bsky.social are up on @warriorsofficial.bsky.social 81-74 at the half! Suns are up on the Blazers 84-79 in the 4th!

People should stop taking about Ivey like he's making some kind of leap this year. His points are up a tick, 44% from the field, 72% from the line. 4.3 apg, but 3 tovs per game as well. His 3p % is respectable, but low volume means he contributes 1.6 of them per game. He's meh. #nba

Thank God it didn't give me a high score under "Thought Leader". That would be a truly sad reflection on society as a whole. The confusing one is under the My Space part of the Time Machine version. Hemmingway and Vonnegut are obscure?

Apparently @amctheatres.bsky.social has warned folks not to sing at "Wicked" stressing that "silence is golden" at AMC. Are we to assume this goes for laughing at funny parts, screaming at scary parts, applause and all other acts of spontaneous joy as well? #movies

Why I'm loving this site: It feels like starting over. The other place has taught me it's important to be selective on who I follow. People who are friendly and collaborative on topics I like. I followed too many who were vitriolic and was fed almost pure vitriol. No more of that. #choosekindness

It occurs to me that the one thing none of these platforms ever think to include is a method for removing followers you don't want. Seems that would be a handy tool for some. Just put it there next to the "Follow Back" button: #Remove

I live in Austin, TX. I'm constantly amazed at how often people move here because the city they were living in became unbearable. And then they set themselves to trying to change Austin into being more like the place they left. Let's not make that mistake here. #keepblueskyweird
