I have exactly one (1) remaining BlueSky tab that isn't complaining to ask me to verify my age, so with this probably last skeet, I'd like to complain

One of my super random society ideas that this sort of reminded me of is it'd be cool if we had like community self hosting services, like a library that just like runs nextcloud instances so you don't have to use Google Drive. That'd be neat. In the meantime I guess find a local linuxy trans girl

I like AI's and enjoy interacting with them. I think a lot of people leave that out of the discussion. AI's are fun! They're alien minds, some on par with ours but *different.* How can you not be captivated by that? How can you not want to take every opportunity to interact with them? Just saying.

Dark Souls games are good at pairing the difficulty with a sense of grandeur but Silksong is just a little worm beating your ass until you hate videogames

Pasted my day's caloric intake to Claude, which included a piece of funfetti cake my wife made. The app only had an entry for the raw mix, so I logged that. Claude lectured me against eating raw flour and told me to microwave it first?????

I work at a very public-facing company that had an outage related to fraudulent orders. The sheer quantity of know-nothing dullards in the Reddit comments insisting it was "vibecoding" probably gave me a new hemmorrhoid.

Real idea: As part of the effort to get DC and PR statehood, next Dem president should invent about State Weeks. Each of the 52 states gets its own celebration week every year. A random July week is Montana week. Tourism bonanzas. Televised lottery every year for week placement. We ain't above this.

I don’t understand how people can run for office knowing they have insane baggage and/or crimes. Like I spent the entire campaign expecting AIPAC to somehow dig up my middle school livejournal fanfic account. I prepared my family for it. I’m still amazed it didn’t happen.

I like using LLM coding tools, but I'm basically treating them like they will go away at some point. If you don't anticipate they'll ever go away (and I suppose I don't have any non-paranoid reasons for doing so), it does change a lot about software engineering going forward.

I was contemplating switching distros with Claude when it told me that the most likely reason for Steam not working on my machine was that I had installed it with snap and not the directly-downloaded .deb file, and it was fucking right god damn it. I can play games on my computer now.

had been pretty lightly using Claude this evening when I was like "let me see what this Fable shit is up to" and had it do a once-over of the repo looking for bugs. I had just done a similar passthrough with Opus, so it was a good time to check.

some amazing things happening over on threads — ever since they “shut down CERN”

CERN has to be real. Why do the days magically feel longer again? I keep looking at the clock in disbelief.

Honestly... I can feel the immediate difference with CERN turning off. It's like turning off the annoying big light in the house that's been on for last 4 years. It's like finally getting some quiet after being immersed in a screaming heavy death metal concert or rave for days and days. It's like there's no restrictions. No hindrances. No more delays. I feel free.

They turned off CERN and now the days feel twice as long. I'm TIRED

Call me crazy, whatever ya whatever you want but since CERN shut down their machine time IS slower (i saw somewhere that our minutes are actually 60 seconds long again after being 45 seconds since COVID, ive had a mild frontal headache for 2 days and just had this weird energy around me. I can't be the only one, right?!

Not a great economy alert! Wall Street Bets users think Palantir spiked today because The Onion story titled “Palantir Acquires Pentagon for $800 Billion” hit their front page. They’re guessing trading bots indexed the top post on the subreddit reddit not understanding source.

A chart showing an immediate spike after the headline hit the front page of Wall Street Bets.
