I like the new Apple TV and HomePods, but the price hikes due to AI-way robbery affecting the whole industry has moved them from the “why not” category to the “I’ll think about it…”, with a probable, no as the answer.

I lost 7.5Kg this month, even over Christmas, and I ate plenty of deer ragout over 3 days.

@thebishf1.bsky.social just watched F1 on AppleTV. Good, but not great. It seemed to be Grand Prix meets Days of Thunder, with a bit of Silver Dream Racer mixed in for good measure. Very enjoyable, but I think Frankenheimer did it better. GP on track was more visceral, I think.

Als ich die Küche betrete, erstarre ich. Ein windiger Hase reicht zwei aufgeregten Mäusen einen Sack Karottenscheiben, sie geben ihm Geld. "Damit werdet ihr Millionäre", sagt er. "Was soll das?", rufe ich. "Noch so ein Tölpel", murmelt der Hase. Dann zu mir: "Haben Sie auch Interesse an Rabbitcoin?"

Confirmed (w/ a dupe)! Yannik Marchand (kinnay) used 3 bugs -incl. an Incorrect Implementation of Authentication Algorithm- to exploit the Phillips Hue Bridge but 2 bugs collided w/ bugs seen previously in the contest. He still earns $13,333 & 2.67 Master of Pwn points. Not bad for his 1st #Pwn2Own

I’m stressed, so Wellness weekend… train 45 minute delay, at hotel, wellness closed due to no staff (not mentioned on website). Today, new shoes gave me blisters, which burst before I got back to hotel. Fire alarm as I was taking a nap. Hobbled to chemists for blister plasters.

Consider: "Sociopathic" is to show deceit, aggression, & a lack of empathy for others. - The inability to consider any worldview but your own. "Woke" is to show honesty, patience & empathy. - The desire to see the world as others. Those who are "anti-woke" are advocating for sociopathic behavior.

This is all about being cruel and marginalizing others. No one chooses to be trans or any other minority group for fun. It's way too hard living as a trans person, especially in America and none of the people perpetrating the cruelty are themselves hurt by the existance of trans people

Some people when they try to go to sleep, it's like their brain is a computer, and there are a lot of running processes, and it looks at each one - evaluating and resolving, and slowing shutdown as it handles each, and sometimes things block shutdown Me? It's like someone holds the power button
