If your new year's resolution was to follow a more interesting cross-section of the AI/LLM/Botpocalypse Disc Horse and you haven't gotten around to doing it yet, a dear friend made this handy list you can bulk-follow and/or add to your feeds and opt out of at a later time bsky.app/profile/did:...

As a lifelong list person, I've adopted a newer (better?) posture to reading: once I've completed a novel/collection, I'll select which book I *feel* like reading at that point (rather than sticking to a list). This strategy has me reading way more and enjoying it a whole lot more too. Fun!

Just have to say that the $Trump meme coin is a gift to all of us who are not fans of his. It’s just a matter of time until a lot of people lose money from this. I’m a crypto fan. This is not crypto any more than Madoff was just buying and selling shares of stock

It's all fun and games until the president-elect launches a memecoin. Backlash over Trump's shitcoin was near immediate, which was, honestly, kind of a surprise. www.dlnews.com/articles/mar...

I think the best bit about that pic of them eating the McDonald's on a fancy plane is how Donald Trump Jr. is holding the box of fries. Big Golden Retriever energy.

Trying to hang here more given, erm, events

Bitcoin mining has made headlines for consuming enormous amounts of energy around the world. Now, it's facing a new test: Noisy machines. Residents of Granbury, Texas, say that the thrum of a local mine has even been causing serious health issues. www.dlnews.com/articles/peo...
