I don't share stuff from my sketchbook that often but I'm really happy with how these retro cars look. Pen studies from photos in a 5"x5" sketchbook. #art #illustration

one of my future dream projects is to wrap Wikipedia in a child-friendly, encarta-like ui, with maybe some simple games, for kids, people who like exploring, and people who miss when National Geographic was good. Maybe I'd also distribute it on CD.

Geeze louise that looks SO GOOD

it's almost like "small rectangle that is easy to put down and pick up" is the ultimate computing form factor

To "own" your data on ATProto you need to be able to adversarially migrate your PDS away from a hostile host. That requires a rotation key and a backup of your PDS (see www.da.vidbuchanan.co.uk/blog/adversa...). Currently ~0.004% of users hosted by bluesky have rotation keys...

I often think about the fact that many of the brightest, most innovative people in our world die in obscurity under capitalism with no opportunity to reach their potential.

It’s so bizarre living in China & getting email updates about my American credit score.

The most powerful storm I have personally ever witnessed. This beast near Etowah, OK produced two separate sets of twin tornadoes, followed by an EF3 tornado, and then a 1.25 mile-wide tornado that hit Shawnee, OK... all in the span of one hour. #photography #ArtAdventCalendar

When there's an insect in the house and it sees the moon and bangs on the window until you let it out what does it do when it gets outside, does it just keep going until it gets there

governance system idea: roaming 500 ton mechs that exclusively answer to american opinion based on a live input feed of polling data on everything. works as a new branch of government. they will go to war for us, overthrow the government, enforce rule of law, ect, as long as we collectively will it

Here's the aftermath of the Zhuque-3 landing impact.

So it’s going to be really cool to see ATP software similar to Fediverse instances that offer an organized & coherent & streamlined way to support the hosting of many PDSs in a controlled way (i.e., “plug & play”, invitation only migration/hosting, etc.).

Lovely morning. Cold, but crisp, & it actually feels very comfortable in the sunshine. #photography #iphoneography #shanghai #上海 #travel

Realising a lot of AI hate is just part of the ongoing boomerification of millennials and therefore a non issue. The kids will learn to use it and do great things with it.

🚩🚀 Liftoff! #LandSpace launched #Zhuque-3 rocket today! I was at the launch site and saw it successfully delivered the second stage to orbit. While the attempt to recover the first stage didn't make it, the mission is a big deal for the rocket's future development.

“AI needs to be regulated because it tells people things I don’t like” is such a weird take that I essentially see being made routinely.

I hate how cold it is. 🥶

i like that all these chinese robotics startups have behind the scenes videos on-deck to deal with the sheer level of western cope that comes out every time a new video drops

#OTD in 1945, then Lt Cmd Eric 'Winkle' Brown made the first deck landing of a jet aircraft on HMS Ocean in DH Vampire LZ551/G. Brown landed against orders. Brown's feelings on carrier jet operations contributed to the Royal Navy not putting jets to sea for a further five years. #aviation #avgeek

Western liberals will refer to proposals or concerns within their countries or governments which parallel pre-existing national policies of states like PR China, Vietnam, etc. (states remotely isolated from the 3rd Reich or its history) yet refer to these policies as “Nazi talk”. Absolute clowns. 🤡

Testing live voice mode w/ Gemini & I think we’re still easily like 3–5 yrs away from AI being truly useful outside of specific or niche use-cases. Just lies to me. Tbf, Idk what model Gemini uses for its live service—it’s def. not using 3, since 3 thinking responses take a long time to generate.
