Re: Harbourmasters accepting AI contributions. Maybe it's better that when you're not a lot of developers and you're spread thin and burning out, you should just retire and stop writing software altogether.

Tried to flex this on a first date but the waitress
took it and asked what it was and why it said
"pissvortex" on it. I explained that it's called X
Money and she said they don't take that but
when I tried to explain she just kept laughing. I
told her just to try it so she did but it declined
which made her laugh harder. WTF @elonmusk

Whee, apparently some corners of the Internet were watching Alessandro Durando at Gamescom yesterday morning and think he looks like Epstein. Going so far as to say "Only Epstein knows what the shirt means."

It was sad watching artists rip down years, decades even, of web galleries full of comments and stats and proof of life before generative AI just to reupload it with some sketchy anti-AI overlay applied. Training methods mooted it almost instantly, and the damage to art history is permanent.

What does it say about me as a person that I either don't know anyone who's ever been assaulted, or am not aware of anyone having been assaulted, or my brain has completely blocked any memory of such out, but I happen to still post on the Something Awful forums in TYOOL 2026?

Best Non-GamStop Sports Betting Sites for Great Odds?
Hi everyone,

I’m a UK punter currently on GamStop, but I still love following sports and placing the occasional bet. Since all UK-licensed bookies are off-limits, I know a lot of people look for non-GamStop sports betting sites these days. I’m especially interested in finding out which of these sites actually offer the best odds—whether it’s for football, horse racing, tennis, or any other sports.

some amazing things happening over on threads — ever since they “shut down CERN”
CERN has to be real. Why do the days magically feel longer again? I keep looking at the clock in disbelief.Honestly... I can feel the immediate difference with CERN turning off. It's like turning off the annoying big light in the house that's been on for last 4 years. It's like finally getting some quiet after being immersed in a screaming heavy death metal concert or rave for days and days. It's like there's no restrictions. No hindrances. No more delays. I feel free.They turned off CERN and now the days feel twice as long. I'm TIREDCall me crazy, whatever ya whatever you want but since CERN shut down their machine time IS slower (i saw somewhere that our minutes are actually 60 seconds long again after being 45 seconds since COVID, ive had a mild frontal headache for 2 days and just had this weird energy around me. I can't be the only one, right?!

So, guess that @gizmodo.com has been hacked??? or something??? I can't even access articles on mobile without this prompt popping up. Because I searched and this seems like a malware/phishing attempt since the captcha seemed fishy. (further info here: consumer.ftc.gov/consumer-ale...)
Screenshot of Gizmodo with a captcha request. The background articles are blurred with the captcha asking the user to do the following (disclosure, please DO NOT DO THIS):

To verify your request,
follow the instructions below
Use the keyboard in this order:
1. Press Win + X
2. Press I (or choose Terminal / PowerShell)
3. Press Ctrl + V
4. Press Enter

Oh, fuck you, Peet's.
Three K-cup coffee pods, arranged top, bottom left, bottom right. Top is a Major Dickason's Blend, previous branding, with "Dark Roast Coffee" in white text on a brown strip, and Major Dickason's Blend below that in white on black. The new design is below it, with "Major Dickason's" in black on off-white, and "Dark Roast" below that in white on red. The decaf variety is to the right of it, with a strikingly similar "House Blend" in black on off-white, and "Dark Roast" again below it in white on red. It has the barely readable "Decaf" above it in white on green.

Facts.
Four frame comics. Every frame shows a crowd holding rainbow and trans flags, and features one sign. In the first, it reads : If you aren't willing to accept a trans or queer child, don't have kids. In the second : HRT is older than : Viagra, Lasik, heart transplant. Stop calling it "experimental." The third : More people regret getting a Harry Potter tattoo than gender-affirming care. The fourth : If gender is biological, why does it need a police state to enforce it?

Am I not queer or weird enough if I happen to be AI-ambivalent and use AI in coding projects? Apparently queer/weird status is tied heavily into anti-AI stance. Or maybe it's not and people are just making one too many connections.

Fuck you too, Apple! #advanceddataprotection #apple #security Advanced Data Protection, my ass! Guess it's too late to snatch my data back now that Apple belongs to Trump.

Advanced Data Protection is On
Remember to keep your recovery methods up to date. If you lose access to your account, you will need to use your recovery key or recovery contact to get your data back.Screen shot of macOS Tahoe System Settings, with a notice reading:

Confirm Advanced Data Protection Setting
There was an error when you most recently tried to turn off Advanced Data Protection. Apple isn't able to help you recover your iCloud data until Advanced Data Protection is turned off.

There is a button labeled: Turn Off, and another button labeled: Keep On.A Screen Shot of the System Settings app on macOS Tahoe, highlighting that Advanced Data Protection appears to be turned Off.

Coincidentally, it is also indicating all of the data storage space I am using. Maybe that's why they're having trouble encrypting it all.
