Great timing seeing this post. I had to turn off Facebook my feed was getting so bad.

Remember when applying "2000" to product names meant it was a futuristic product and ahead of its time? Naming something with 2000 now makes it appeal to a vintage mindset.

Only if all of those people voted--which I suspect did not. This is more what the freedoms of speech and assembly look like.

Well congratulations. In doing so, this feels fresh, yet uniquely Who. Whatever happens with the current series, it's in need of a creative change. Future show runners should look here for some inspiration.

The first album I purchased was a cassette tape with music from that era. The Leisure Hive opening fanfare was my favorite (aside from the Howell theme).

Came here to say that these have really caught my eye. They're polished, but still uniquely Doctor Who. The way you render planets gives it a scale and width that was lacking before. But doesn't go "in-your-face" like the modern era.

Just picked one of these up. By far the best keyboard experience I have ever had. The piano patches are great on here and I find myself switching depending on if I'm playing show tunes or going for the Nashville sound.

Reposting something I did ages ago. I haven't done much Blending recently though my interest is coming back with version 5. @cunningmunki.bsky.social

They can't make it work on macOS either.

We need more sci-fi like “Foundation” and less of whatever joke Star Trek and Doctor Who have become.

I didn’t like the Timeless Child at all and hoped it would go away like Paul McGann’s “half-human” confession.

I understand many criticisms of LLMs including making people dumber... But doesn't anyone find the irony these studies used computers--machines that were literally invented to think for human beings?

Doctor Who needs to rest. Each era after Moffat just gets louder and less grounded. Before the next iteration, let this tired old thing rest and find incubate for the next renewal. Curse you Disney+ deal. We have so many open plot holes from the last 2 seasons that will never get resolved on screen

I'm in my mid fifties and still learning new things. I set up my first Linux server with a web service running on it last week. After all this time in macOS, I'm finally diving into the terminal commands and SSH. Basics for many, but I was spoiled growing up with Visual Studio and its wizards.

Code reviews are getting weird. Just whose code am I reviewing? If it's an entry dev who I'm mentoring...would they understand my comments? Or would they be offended because it was their decision not the AI? #vscode #GitHubCopilot #GitHub #CursorAI #claudecode

I've been working with 2 less experienced coders who have never created Flutter apps on a big project these past couple of weeks. We're using Cursor to fill in the knowledge gaps. There are some issues, but as the tech improves, there are definite career threatening implications here. #vibecoding

Nothing surprises me.

Working on my first vibe, coding project using Cursor. I still don’t get how non-coders can do this… but they are. One mistake, and no source control can kill a solution in less than a minute.

Under new management, perhaps the Kennedy Center will finally get a live action version of "South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut". It's even got a culture war with Canada.

I wonder if it's possible to agree with some great things this administration is doing, but also use my brain to criticize what I don't like. Because I am not happy about one thing doesn't mean I'm going to completely realign my entire thought process left or right.

Thanks for asking. I meant with this organization, not my own handling of its ridiculousness. :)

As long as we know this type of generative AI is obviously satire, I am all for it.

The news has me trained that I can hold off, because things are going so fast, they flip flop throughout the day. I just need the highlights now.

I’m just going to tune everything out today. It’s for the best maybe for the entire weekend!

Every keyboard needs a hardware switch that allows me to permanently make the function keys mean F1 through F12. Not software. Not a stupid FN button. A physical switch. I need function keys more than I need to constantly adjust screen brightness. If you want to be fancy, add a stupid volume knob.

Good luck to you. That's where my skills drop off a cliff. I to this day never could figure out proper UV unwrapping, seams and translating that weird pattern exported to paint in Photoshop.

Another plane crash. Conveniently, this one will simply be Canada's fault.

Desktop software makers, especially Adobe and Microsoft: let users opt out of the annoying text popups pointing out new features every time you update. I don't care any more. I want to get work done instead of being reminded of things like "You can chat with your PDF document now! How exciting!"

When Doug first showed up a few years ago, it was a brilliant sketch showing how both sides of the coin can share similar opinions. His abbreviated return last night unraveled the original spirit Tom Hanks' character. "Out of context" as they say.
