I feel like with the recent surge in vibecoded "decompilations", the meaning of the word has diverged a lot, and I think we need a way to differentiate between "buggy executable that sort of works" and "byte-accurate, labelled code reproduction" Because they are not the same thing.

Speedrun .com has a very simple job - be an accessible community-managed database of runs, and the community will pay you for upkeep. They've been profitable under this model for an eternity with zero issue. Trying to steal ownership of the community's data & restrict API use is moronic greed.

Techbros will claim this is "interfering with progress" or some nonsense, but any legitimate use of AI that does not involve stealing or destroying communities will literally be unharmed. Always remember that when corporations whine about regulation, and ask why "progress" needs the amoral stuff.

I could honestly just make a long video talking casually over the history I know for each star, and it would be far longer than the actual 120 lmao There's so much history & so many improvements/stories the average viewer will probably never know Every star is a set of good memories

Almost 2 full years with no published videos, you'd be forgiven for thinking I'd retired from the speedrun/TAS scene. But sometimes you need to take a step back to recharge & learn... But that can't last forever, can it?

Is the "shifting consumer preference" in the room with us now, or are they telling people what they want? This comes RIGHT after they deleted a ton of digital movies people BOUGHT from their own accounts. Why on earth would you ever buy games with them in the future?

Be sure to use Al when making your next, I don't know, meal plan, for example. Definitely do not call your friend who loves to cook and ask her for her favorite recipes or tips or ways to save time making meals, because you will end
up talking for longer than you had hoped, hearing, perhaps, about her father's cancer diagnosis or how lonely she's been or even what she's planted in her spring garden and then lost with the early frost.

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 08/06/2026
A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Green is carrying Blue on top of his head. Blue looks wide-eyed and stunned, completely wrung dry and shriveled, hanging limp like a rag.
Narration: How to revive an oversocialised introvert:
1. Gently remove from crowds.

Green gently lowers shriveled Blue into a metal stock pot. The pot's lid is leaning against the pot on the side.
Narration: 2. Place in a chilled, dark and quiet place, away from strong smells and sounds.

Sitting down to wait next to the now lidded pot, Green reads a newspaper.
Narration: 3. Let simmer until normal.

Green turns to look towards the pot as Blue peers out, still not fully recovered but now looking much more like his regular self.
Green: Feeling any better yet?
Blue: A little.

PERSON 2: We could argue that we *did* build a neutrino detector. There’s a lot of water here. A solar neutrino will probably interact with it at *some* point. Person 1: ...Wait. Actually, if we got some photomultiplier tubes... [caption] How The Neutrino Detector Was Invented

Wait you could use this with a browser plugin or something to make it work as a version of Google that has no ads & burns through their ridiculous AI capex The downside is they would see it as "user growth" to justify said capex lol Either way, quite the performance art piece.

Worth re-sharing some calmness around the recent news of Hantavirus. I think the media has become paranoid about any illness spreading since Covid at this point, and it's worth remembering that it takes a *lot* more for a virus to become a pandemic than to harm a few people on a cruise-ship.

In times like these sometimes you just have to look to the universe & think "wow" If humans are being awful & you are powerless to help, take a walk in nature. Admire what's been there for millions of years, and will last many millions more regardless of what we do. We live in an amazing universe!
