With a fraction of the money they've dumped on AI they could have solved fusion. This would have made them richer beyond their wildest dreams. ITER, the biggest fusion project has received some $50B which is peanuts in comparison.

JPEG XL is upon us 🚀 Chrome v155 will enable it by default: chromestatus.com/feature/5114... Safari has had partial support since 2023. I'm guessing @firefox.com is not that far off. For more info on JPEG XL: jpegxl.info

I was hyped for Silent Hill Townfall but it looks like another Unreal Engine 5 game plagued by stuttering performance issues. *sigh*

Yeah the databases are the worst part of it but so much is bad. So happy that I can finally kill those projects.

I've been waiting 7 fucking years to delete this Firebase project. Building on top of Firebase has been one of the worst decisions I've done in my dev life. Only a single project remains and it will die in a couple of weeks. Let's go!

I was worried if my comic is perhaps too self indulgent, but then I remembered the words of Björk and now I need to make it even more self indulgent 🥰

This video of DJ Shadow talking about where he got the samples from still gives me the chills. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gpK...

This album was so influential for me. I was *obsessed* with it when I started making beats with FastTracker 2 back in 98 or so. Probably the pinnacle of sampling.

A year ago I was intimidated by SSH'ing into a VPS but I knew I needed to learn to control of my infra. Today I just configured Wireguard, UFW NAT, and the whole enchilada in like 15 mins. It worked on the first try for connecting to the prod database.

Am I getting this right? The "block AI bots" feature is now becoming "pretty please don't steal our data"?

Do you get legitimate traffic/customers from Facebook? Last time I tried promoting something there it was basically all bots. I closed all my pages shortly after. My personal account is there in case friends or family want to contact me but I almost never log in.

So I've seen a couple of FOUCs in the past couple of days but these are *much less frequent* compared to pre v155. I used to see those dozens of times per day and now it's more like 2-3 times.

Looks like @firefox.com 155 has fixed all the FOUC issues I've been having for months. Didn't see anything obvious on the release notes about this but I'm cautiously optimistic.
