It is a thing of remarkable wonder. RIP Cronos.

The @b3ta.com image challenge this week is to change one letter in the name of a famous work of art. I spent way too long changing Edward Hopper's Nighthawks into Fighthawks.

I want to know more about this anti-booing technology. Sounds like something the ACME Corporation would make.

How brilliant is this concept kit, Lego Fawlty Towers! Incredible detailing throughout. beta.ideas.lego.com/product-idea...

This is basically a Futurama joke.

Doesn't look the worst use of AI, but boosters make the mistake of assuming AI is a product's main selling point as that's where their interest lies. Users shouldn't care what's under the hood, so for them AI is just a sticker saying it's going to be borked, scammy and environmentally terrible.

I'd hate to see what not caring looks like.

RIP Robert Tinney (November 22, 1947 – February 1, 2026), the artist famous for his playful covers for Byte magazine, a hobbist magazine that ushered in the microcomputing age from the mid-70s through the 90s. I'm honored to have included his work in my own art collection.
