Psych! It doesn't actually go check the data. It just keeps making things up.

Brian Armstrong @killermonk.bsky.social · 07/11/2025

And even when it says it will go check the source, it will still just make up words and not actually look up the report.

My son did this with fishing line in the garage recently. He was building a trap for bad guys so they couldn't get in the house.

I got Netware certified in high school... 😅 I'd probably have to skill up for it.

What if we're a really senior software engineer with lots of Python experience, but just know basics of networking?

So I'm on the other app and hit the top of my feed and see this post. Jump over here and see this same post. Think I reopened the other app. Really sent me for a minute.

If @senatorshoshana.bsky.social ever wanted hiking buddies, sounds like your wife might be a good suggestion! This must've been an awesome trip!

it's basically playing on repeat at my house

This app needs a way to change our notification settings so I can get notified about this. Also so I can never miss an amazing post about Sam!

I have an announcement to make about a new addition to my family

My momma raised me right: I always put the toilet seat down. Why would you leave it up? That's disgusting.

You and me both, Jeff. My wife's going to just love my rediscovered talent.

Next you're going to try to tell me that King Author wasn't real, aren't you?

@forrestvalkai.bsky.social I just saw this on that other platform. Reminds me of the kind of argument two people Mike might... doesn't it?

A screenshot of a tweet that says "DNA and NDA are the same letters, really makes you think"

The public fellatio of Trump on display from all these tech companies is quite something to behold

My oldest uses it for a quote book and has run out of room several time and had to start a new note

@scalzi.com I fear you might be beaten at your own game. On the other site.

A tweet tagging RFK Jr saying "I ran out of burger buns so I used 2 uncrustables for my bacon cheeseburger."

The picture in the tweet shows a 2 patty cheese burger with grape uncrustables as the buns. A bite has been taken out of the burger and jam is leaking out.

They're so big now. And now I have 12 ducks and 5 chickens thanks to natural processes.

Time to buy the domain and plant a crypto miner in it! Or something nefarious.

I love our wool balls, and also have the same problem with fitted sheets. The dogs also love the wool balls if they ever fall out of the basket unnoticed.

Nope. They didn't do this on purpose. They wanted Trump elected. Now they can do it to drive rage clicks again on their headlines. It's not about reporting, it's about their bottom line.

No no. See, it's visionary because _both_ parents get turned into monsters, instead of just the mother.

More of the creatures I follow are switching over, so I hope so. I think the flat eathers will always stay over on Twitter, though

Yeah, that's basically my view. If the service is free, it's because you're the product. Currently, though, I'm worried that firewalla's business model isn't maintainable: you can't keep providing forever service for a one time charge.

Brian Armstrong @killermonk.bsky.social · 14/06/2024

Love my firewalla. There are also DNS based ad block services available. But... you're sending all your DNS queries to some random 3rd party, so... Mixed feelings

I have missed some crucial context in this discourse, and the references are subtle enough that Google is failing me in finding it. Well done.

As a child, we convinced my parents to drive past a pillar of smoke we saw start and were close to. We were one of many cars that made it harder for the fire truck to get there quickly. Never again.

If it was a burrito, would it be a scalzone?

Can you stop pretending like everything that doesn't cater to us as ADHD people is ableist? Great Scott. ADHD, preoccupation, anxiety, etc are _reasons_, stop trying to use them as excuses. I often miss things like this, and if someone thinks that's rude, well 🤷🏻‍♂️ I did my best.

They met at my kid's former charter school. Very rigorous and structured curriculum. My kids learned to read well, but hated reading because of school. Now that they're in a different school, they all read voraciously in their free time, and they're happier at home.

My daughter has a very close friend whose parents both immigrated from India. Daughter thanks us every so often that we don't parent like they do. The friend gets pretty harsh groundings for not hitting straight As or for missing work.
