When it was the other way, with music, corps were all, "That's copyright infringement! You must pay us lots of money!" But when corps do the same thing to individuals, the individuals are somehow supposed to be ok with it? (And yes, I know some music corps are suing A.i. companies.)

I don't trust you, Microsoft. I'm going to let that cook for another week or two and see if/how many times you recall and re-release it.

I mean, his real talent was killing vampires, so it's understandable that he wasn't good with bats.

But he's going to lie and say that they come from him, rather than coming from a law he keeps trying to destroy.

If his head was any narrower, his eyes would have to have had a fight to see which one was on top.

You know the automated car washes? How they've got that chain feed bump thing (I'm sure it has a name) that moves your car forward? He's got one of those bumps as an Adam's apple.

He also banned Irn Bru at that golf course, because it "could stain the carpets".

Based on that last picture of Tracey I saw, his head is also a rounding error.

Riker would use so many that the crew of the Enterprise would secretly call them "Rikers" behind his back. And when he did find out, he would do that Riker smile / chair sit.

Yeah. There was some of that.

Oh yeah. When I worked system accreditation, that was huge. To the point where a coworker asked what I was going to do when everything went to the cloud. Me: Work the cloud accreditation processes? Them: Why? There aren't any computers in the cloud. Me: ...What do you think the cloud is?

And most of it shouldn't be labeled as AI, except for the fact that it's a buzzword that gets funding.

Mithras - Left Justified and Ancient @mithras.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
Yeah. But in the sense that quite a lot of stuff that is in the category of "this is hard to do, even for a computer" gets labeled as A.i., rightly or wrongly. And it's usually wrongly.

Little brothers were also good for this. Until he got big enough to swing a golf club and chase me out of the house for a particular joke.

You might also look for cork instead of MDF. If it can muffle the sound of half a dozen D&D players from their landlord next door, it can muffle a spindle.

How satisfying was that? It feels like it would be at least "very" and maybe "very, very".

I got blocked by everyone at The Federalist on Twitter, because of use of (paraphased*): "Wow. With a statement that bad, you're almost stupid enough to work at The Federa... Oh." *Because I deleted my Twitter and can't look up the exact phrase, but that's close.

A coworker has noticed that I have deployed my tiny frog army, that I got from @mostlybree.kitrocha.com. They are on double sided sticky dots, attached to my new (sat in a closet for three years in its box) monitor.

But all these actions happened well before Cannon's order. When he was not (or least believed he was not) acting ultra vires.

I think the egg was largely more memorable; the only thing I can specifically remember from the "learned by watching you" PSA was the dad's mustache.
