the autumn of our discontent

where am i right now

Reddit is ruined. Once the bastion of human discourse, now the home of the ChatGPT Socrates.

I microwaved my leftovers and I saw a housefly in there. By the time I noticed it had already been a full minute. I opened the door and it flew right out. Now I can’t find it. Whatever happens happens. If this is my last post you know why.

This thing is so hopeless. It will say something with all its might and then sentences later, drive right off the reservation.

New neighbors showed up last night

VIRUSES you say

"Our new world of AI" makes me feel like a loser, a total fucking loser, for writing my own words without using some kind of AI augmentation. Anything I compose is going to be at the mercy of Mascoma High School's AP English teachings with maybe a side order of spell check. I will die there.

It was a time when everything wasn’t designed to spy on us and subscription us to death. If there was an honest living in tech, this was close.

This sweetheart popped back on the market today, like a stroll through CompUSA

Drove a staple with this today for the first time in over a decade. Otherwise, the 747 is a fine self-defense weapon which belongs on any desk.

Pulled these beauties out of storage. Now I gaze at them daily and remember a simpler time. A time when it was cool to have a really really big floppy disk.

GOOSED

This phish is amazing. Medicare Kit.

“Man” as in, singular person? I’m positive this happens hundreds of times a day at a scale of 800 million users. Pool chemicals, all-hotdog diets, eating your own lawn, who knows.

Own music while you still can

our studio went All Valley on these shirts 🔥

The Apple Cinemas default movie thumbnail image is brutal

I read this whole thing like I was rabidly inspecting a shirt at Dan Flashes comicbook.com/tv-shows/new...

It took a lot of self control to walk out without this absolute legend of the 90s.

It only took 25 years, but I finally watched The Perfect Storm last night for the first time. The storm was bad. The accents, were worse.

Summer is over

Google is loaded with publicly shared ChatGPT conversations, and this appears to be a consequence of users generating public links when they click "Share" in a chat. You can dork these, and I hope this wasn't your doctor. site:chatgpt.com/share

we're all trying to find the guy who trained Gemini on 'random'

Yeah uh @variety.com…snowmobile? Renner got run over by a 7-ton snowcat. I think he deserves the correction.

A rat! That’s a new one. I’ve only seen groundhogs, rabbits, skunks, chipmunks, squirrels, even cats going under there, but never a rat.

In the future we were supposed to have world economic collapse, resource scarcity, state controlled television, and an Electone in your living room.

I was more sentimental for Thunderbolts, but Fantastic Four was great. Marvel is back.

The metal slide in July was ahead of its time, able to cauterize a burn wound as it was being created, we have seen no real innovation in the playground self-triage space since that time and I think this is what @cpsc.gov was trying to say.

a @soren.bsky.social idea come to life

Presently in a briefing on threat actor GENESIS PANDA, which I think we can all assume is motivated primarily by phil collins

LOL "national diplomatic warehouse" A warehouse of diplomacy! Name brand negotiations at discount prices!

ChatGPT is unreal. We've been "collaborating" for months on my flight tracker setup, the usual over-optimism and flat out bold wrongness at times, but nothing that notable. Today it injects this "wife acceptance factor" remark when discussing a taller antenna, trying to "bro down" or something.

Ozzy Osbourne has passed away at the age of 76

Hello, man in the woods consuming drugs on my morning run. No, you were not imagining anything - it was a shirtless middle age white guy wearing 3" shorts flying by you on the trail. But if you believed this to be a chemically-induced apparition, I hope it inspires you to make a lifestyle change!

And targeting your hospitals.

hurry over to LinkedIn for all the algorithmically promoted hot takes on the intersection of marital infidelity and somehow business

I don't miss commuting

anker continuing to reject my ten year old amazon order number for their exploding battery pack death grenade recall

Update: i have to scrap this new webcam setup because today on a web call, one cat did the "climb on the other one and dominate them" thing on that chair in the background, everyone's faces betrayed them, they all saw it

No one needs this This doesn't make anything better

well my usual effort is "not running" so

This is the Winter Soldier “before we get started does anybody want to get out” of website privacy notices.

an open can of beer in the cupholder of your dad's mustang when he stopped by to pick you up on sunday morning

Nothing

Oh baby it’s my favorite thing!
