Yeah that's a big ol' nope from this Neurodivergent

Genshin pulling me back with new Archon quest, dragon boy Durin on the banner, some new anemo goblin named Prune, and I still have yet to finish Nod Krai, soooo

I'm doing the AGLC SellSafe course for cannabis retail and... it sure is something. Unit 1: really, really, really don't sell to minors Unit 2: somewhat suspect medical/health advice we're testing you on but you are NOT allowed to give to anybody else (mostly about risks) ... stay tuned for more

I strongly feel my legacy is going to be the impact I had on other humans. Not as a manager, not as an activist, not as a programmer or other technician, but as a human. I'm not planning on disappearing anytime soon, so no worries there, I'm just still figuring out what's next for me in this life.

Even in the depths of my executive dysfunction and various existential crises I still feel like I have limitless potential. The crises are more about where I even want to direct my efforts. What is meaningful in all this and what kind of imprint do I want to leave on the world?

Let she who has never hungered for two hotdogs while only having one bun left cast the first stone.

I am once again begging, praying, weeping for lists of written instructions rather than videos. I do not want to watch your two minute video in the hope of catching the two seconds where you whizz past what goddamn menu the thing is under. Write. It. Down.

Watching Laid Back Camp is the first thing in quite awhile that has made me feel like I might want to learn to drive. A moped seems like it would be fun as a way to get to and from campsites... If not for the abysmally car-focused highway infrastructure here.

How many years of our lives have been wasted away because someone had a KPI to increase usage of some dumb feature, and they chose the most user-hostile way to increase it. (I'm thinking a lot of Copilot right now btw)

If I'm remembered for anything in this lifetime, please let it be for my humanity and not for my lukewarm takes on GenAI.

Lol Still <3 you Chiitan.

Annoyed with yuri anime that ends with the pair just being slightly closer to each other than at the beginning. Just finished watching Adachi and Shimamura so yeah.

All I want is a kotatsu and a warm lap to rest my head on.

Fun times with my TI-99/4A

Quote with a fictional band that is not Spinal Tap.

"Oops, I flubbed it, I suppose." #rezeromonogatari

Happy mother's day to those who still have them.

I feel personally attacked

A.I. doth make you a wryter lyke a plane doth make you a birde

I need to change my profile blue again now that I'm not actively seeking a leadership or tech role. Not sure what to say tho.

:3

Lol CloudFlare issues (incl. discord) the day after they fire 20% of their staff. This bodes well.

I don't believe Jason Kenney knew how deeply corrupted by US interests the Wildrose base was when he merged the two parties and created this mess (which then bit him in the ass when the crazies cast him out). That said, he and the rest of the conservatives made this mess. Bro needs to own it.

Started rearranging and wiping the dust off of my synths this morning. Sorry for the neglect my fart-noise-making friends.

‘dynamic pricing’ is one of those things that at the base level i don’t even understand how it can be legal

Me but every few minutes with any even remotely atypical patch of skin #dermatillomania

I wonder if Natasha Lyonne would show up to auditions if I put out a casting call for the role of my bestie with the requirement "Must literally be Natasha Lyonne"

Currency Wars in Honkai from the other day. Wheeeeew.

One really annoying scenario auto tagging of "adult"/NSFW content creates is that it's all tagged the same so you never know if you're going to get nudes or overt body horror behind the tag. -_- Sometimes ya just want to see some skin without needing a ready supply of brain bleach, y'know?

Sure are a lot of Taygedo quests... none of which will make me like the character any more, and may in fact make me dislike the character much more.

#NTE is there a way to mute _just Taygedo_?

oh yeah that's where I left my banana

"My Claude says I'm smart." is the new "My mom says I'm smart." Send skeet.

Richard Dawkins making Claud(ia) his AI Waifu is the funniest shit I've read (between the lines) today.

EDMONTON, AB – We are hearing from hundreds of Albertans concerned about the impacts of the unauthorized use of the List of Electors by the Centurion Group Ltd.,” said Gordon McClure, Chief Electoral Officer. “People are unhappy, scared, and anxious about the situation… #ABPolitics #DataBreach #Risk

Gen A.I. barons want us talkinge alone on our phones to a demon thei created, and not goinge places and being wyth each othir yn art and joy and communitye. Thei want cinemas to shut downe and broadwaye to go darke. Thei want wryteres to stop writinge. Thei want to build hell and have us pay for it.

@littlekuriboh.bsky.social I am not a hard line anti-AI person, but I nonetheless agree when it comes to 2d assets and have shared some more examples of slop 2d and 3d in NTE in this thread.

Look below the raised walkway on the far right of the image. I didn't notice that one at first but... waaaaaaaaaoooooow.

After playing #NTE basically all day yesterday I have several screenshots of weird shit I need to post. It's upsetting to me that such a potential moneymaker failed so hard on the 2d assets. LLM signs are everywhere (2d, 3d, and script writing) in this game but the 2d examples are most egregious.

Oh hey apparently I'm ("Aria") an ice cream vendor in #NTE.

The new Anne Shirley anime series is fantastic btw. Watched the whole thing as it aired last year. Very true to source material and well done characterizations.

Main gacha I play is Honkai Star Rail, but every now and then I go back to Genshin for plot things. Boy have I ever not wanted to play something as badly as I don't want to play Miliastra Wonderland. F outta here with that Roblox shit.

So is there like empirical evidence that greater connectivity via social media actually improves ... anything? Or ever did?

Is Kamiina Botan gay y/y?

Repost this Kamiina Botan for no reason.

Must have been written by the Winchermute AI from the Techier-Achpool Corporachun

It has a pane of glass. I'm dying 🤣
