For the first time in forever I played some minecraft. Spun up a server and i'll probably whitelist some friends to play on it too. If anyone's interested lemme know.

Been a bit out of sorts all week - Sorry to anyone I've kinda drifted off from mid-conversation. It's not intentional, just had a loss in the family in the last couple of days and it's thrown me.

Had a good time at EF this year. If I can wrangle a way of doing so, I’ll be trying to repeat it next year.

Re: current furry discourse. Oh no, it’s like the people who’ve seen this before, and called it out for what it was actually knew what they were talking about. This has never happened before. /s

News channels talking about climate change as 'Mediterranean UK' as if we're now just going to become Malta. It's as if the years of "Extreme Weather" warnings thing has completely passed them by. It's not just extreme hot we need to be worried about.

ProTip - don't stab your finger with a bread knife. It's a pain to deal with and takes forever to heal up. Related ProTip - Baguettes from Lidl turn into literal knife repellent boulders when heated, especially after a day. These two facts may be related. Please be more careful than I've been. x_x

I've confirmed that the UK's new Sovereign AI Fund does no due diligence on whether AI companies use copyrighted work without permission before investing in them. It took me 3 Freedom of Information requests to find this out: 🧵 1/10

I reiterate my prior statement, but I'm revising one word. As CFz is unable to be operated without this big corpo cloak & dagger management then it has fundamentally failed the community it serves.

I thought decimating the security team and outsourcing it without consultation would have been the end of it but looks like CorporateFurz has struck again. If CFz is unable to be operated without this big corpo cloak & dagger management then it has fundamentally failed the community it serves.

Google joins the list of companies who want my money but don't want to have a functional process to give me any sort of product for said money. Well done. Sitting with support who are unable to do anything at all about a package stuck in transit that I can't access and they can't escalate. 👏🤡

Knowing how beloved this franchise is and how grateful an artist could be if they were sélecteur and in charge of the cover art, for it to have been made with AI of all things in the end ... This is crazy, c'est catastrophique.

NVidia huffing their own exhaust and their CEO self-proclaiming as the next Steve Jobs to a silent room before playing a self-indulgent slopfest, just about epitomizes how incestuous and tone-deaf the industry has become. Looking forward to the surprised pikachu reactions when the scheme topples.

Well, I've finally made the switch. My desktop is now CachyOS and I've ditched Windows 11 and the cesspit of ads, marketing and forced AI altogether. It's impressive how far Linux has come in the last few years. I was able to get just about everything set up in around 4 hours last night.

Oh no. This isn’t it. It’s sad to see people I had respect for make this big a tone deaf statement. Quite a bit of yikes on the AI, political undertones and a total lack of understanding of the community it claims to be supporting people within.

I'm heartened to see that the response to Nvidia's Art Destroyer is universally negative. But I'm disappointed and concerned to see the only pushback from Richard and Oliver here limited to "this might prove controversial." Not sure that meets the moment at a time when GenAI is poisoning everything.

If you were looking for a reason not to go into Glasgow City Center tomorrow, the potential risk of shite in the air, bus/rail/road disruption and it being Monday are all valid excuses to not go in, or work from home. Take your pick.

In case anyone isn't aware yet, keep away from Glasgow city centre if you can at all. The train station is up in flames and it doesn't seem to be slowing down at all. If you're travelling through the city, go around instead or delay your plans. McGill's buses is taking existing train tickets.

I think what you mean is “You’ll soon be uninstalling the Sky News app”. Not everything should need an account to use. This doesn’t protect anyone nor prevent scraping so at best it’s an excuse to add invasive profiling.
A prompt on opening the Sky News app explaining that you will soon need a free account to use the Sky News App. The prompt provides sign in, account creation and a temporary skip button.

So ScotiaCon, I had a good weekend but honestly it was in spite of the con. The events were of no interest and really just got in the way of seeing my friends. The social side was good, but it's painful to watch my friends burn themselves out for an event that doesn't care for them in return.

So, rest of the internet. Welcome to the hell that we've been enduring for the last god knows how long. You'll want to catch up on Online Safety Act, the utter disaster it's been, and probably look up how to contact your local political representative. #discord #OnlineSafetyAct

No. This isn’t it. Do better @mrsleather.bsky.social. This community cares about the artists in it. Are you really that out of touch with your customers that you’ve forgotten who they are? Everyone else, give your money to those in the community who’ve actually done the work to deserve it.

Bangkok has been a fantastic experience. I’d definitely come again but with more plans to see people and go to specific places. That said, we weren’t short of things to do and places to try. It was lovely to meet the people we did see though!

So, Holliday got off to a rough start but Kuala Lumpur was really quite nice. I came in with honestly pretty low expectations and after not getting on a flight my mood was in the gutter. Thanks for turning that around Malaysia! It was brief but hopefully I’ll be back sometime!
Petronas Twin-Towers in Malaysia lit with deep purple lighting and topped with red and yellow lights. A double decker walkway joins the two nearly 2/3 of the way up. A view across Kuala Lumpur near KL Central station. A neon ‘Happy Divali’ sign at Symphony Lake Water Show. Fountains spray jets of water in the air on either side of the sign
