Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 9hI did the same with a 2018 Mac Mini, which I only still have because Apple refused and returned it when I tried to trade it in. Now I’m glad they did, I tried a couple different Linux distros on it and it’s a great lil ubuntu home server now 020
Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 30/09/2026I will happily sit through even the most dogshit episodes of Doctor Who made by human beings, and have done so often. Complaining about the bad stuff can be part of the fun. But if transformer and diffusion models are substantially involved, I won't watch. I'll root for it to fail from the sidelines 110
Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 30/09/2026It's kind of pointless to draw hard lines against "AI" because "AI" is a marketing term and not a real thing, what counts as "AI" changes day to day, and companies try to make "AI" features unavoidable. But if the people making Doctor Who tout "AI" as a major part of their process, I'll be out. 100

Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 26/09/2026I'm always annoyed when an excel esports case expects me to do something programmatic with cell formatting because excel formatting is lies 110
Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 26/09/2026I think I did ok but not great. I would not be surprised if I qualified but I would also not be surprised if I didn't 100
Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 26/09/2026There's no viable alternative to Excel for this competition, which is not operated by microsoft, but I still feel it's important to say fuck microsoft. Arguably I could just not compete, but, well, this is where I've landed for now. 100
Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 26/09/2026I talked about this a little on stream last night but BDS's targeted boycott of Microsoft is, as I understand it, focused primarily on xbox and gaming, secondarily on copilot. For other products they call for people to seek alternatives "when possible." 110

Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 24/09/2026I'm still on that duolingo grind and one of the most useful sentences I've learned recently is "このカラフルの部屋にカメレオンは何匹ですか". great for when you're in a colorful room and you're not sure how many chameleons are in the room with you 000

Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 21/09/2026Firstly, I think more and more people are gonna find their own ways to watch this content without ads. But I also predict that corporations will notice this trend and the respond harshly to it. So, uh, if you're one of those ad-free viewers, just make sure you're braced for that 110
Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 19/09/2026I was so taken with yaz's visual storytelling in this that I had to get his untranslated Jesus manga which is also stunning. the penitent thief looks exactly like amuro which is fun. I'm hoping to snag some of his other historical manga elsewhere 010

Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 18/09/2026Like, there's the typical "oh wow that famous person actually gets it, they are on the right side of this" content, and the man is several tiers above that. I probably do owe him an apology for remembering him mainly as a punchline about embarrassing early 2010s millennial culture 110
Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 18/09/2026I haven't kept up with macklemore's career and to be honest I don't particularly care to, but every word from him that's pierced my bubble these past couple weeks has been just the realest shit ever. 110

Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 11/09/2026To this day she still makes fun of me for that all. I was a child! All the adults were reacting very strongly and I was trying to process what it all meant so I landed on “well they did this in New York and DC so they’ll probably get around to Woonsocket, Rhode Island eventually right!” 100
Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 11/09/2026On 9/11 I was in 8th grade. I had no way of understanding the magnitude of what was happening so I overestimated it. I guessed the world was probably ending? That afternoon my sister and I stopped at an ice cream truck. I said “you should enjoy this, it’s probably the last ice cream you’ll ever eat” 100
Tom @nowwearealltom.com · 11/09/2026I think all the time about the dream I had where my cousin told me “9/11 changed everything. In some ways, it’s still 9/11.” And it really is, isn’t it 001
