blog post about how using ai shit makes you a scab

is this a 9:16 video of a 16:9 video inside a 4:3 frame? Are you trying to kill me?

Seeing yet another 'using whistles is disablist' piece circulating: for the 40 millionth time, using disabled people as cover like this is disgusting and calculated to prey on people who are anxious about doing the wrong thing. Doesn't escape notice that white people are the worst offenders.

I’m sorry but what did libertarians think that the anonymous money laundering racism coin that you could only functionally use for illicit activity was doing other than this, exactly

slots? poker? gambling? it's all balatro to me

in difficult times it’s good to remember that we all lived through the joss whedon years you are more resilient than you realize you stood firm and thought Firefly was kinda mid when everyone was trying to make “shiny” happen you can do it again

when i lived in LA one of my favorite restaurants for busted for serving dolphin and whale meat to rich people and i still feel kinda shitty none of the wait staff ever thought to ask me if I wanted any

This looks siiiiiiick. The VNC/Parsec/RDP/TeamViewer/Moonlight problem conclusively solved by the VideoLAN team using HTTP/3, AGPL licensed. I would love to never have to think about this problem again in my life kyber.stream

Me, to my watch: What time is it My watch (on screen): It is 12:14:36 My watch (speaking): It is twelve, two, thirty six Google has invented a watch that doesn't understand time

I may have a stroke. Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.” A PROTESTant. I assume they think Luther was nailing Bed, Bath, & Beyond coupons to the door.

A whole nation of lay priests, all supplicating before the Abominable Intelligence to fix spreadsheet

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.

Reading this in Shaxx's voice #Destiny2

A first-person account from the Copper Hen's restaurant and ad-hoc field hospital, where volunteer medics helped tear gassed protesters as staffers ran around with cinnamon buns and coffee orders.

As an older tech person, it's legit heartwarming watching the TikTok generation discover why we all hate Oracle.

What if I made a bluesky client in google sheets

Bluesky is so funny. I'm like "what is with all this liberal apologia? Why has everyone lost sight of the root causes of their oppression? Why are these milquetoast politicians and TV journalists getting such high praise?" Ohhhhhhhh I'm on the Discover Tab!

I legit thought it was just accepted fact that search has been made bad to drive us to slopAI?

Who's archiving Vimeo? (and vhx)

fuck it, I've decided 2026 is the year of Mo' Yanks on the Thread. The only solidarity is class solidarity so poasters unite! Go hog wild, yell at me for not voting for Copmala Harris, whatever!

Dr. Gladys West, the pioneering mathematician whose work laid the foundation for modern GPS technology, has died. She was 95.

Amazing when you have a system that lets the private sector deliver a public service it gets rorted. Grog’s Rule: When you privatise public services be sure to also allocate space in a few years for the Royal Commission into abuses in the system.

i wish i could still buy things at the prices i used to complain about

"I'm a woman" ad spot to help fix company

It’s been a year and I use them but I have absolutely no idea what a passkey is. Half the time login fails with them and I have to do something else that works (like a password). I refuse to understand more. I’m tired of computers and don’t care. This is what it’s like for every non-nerd, isn’t it?

Sorry if I’m grumpy it’s just that everything sucks

girls we need to colonize this entire thing. We need to move in and completely rebuild the linux reputation as something For The Girlies, "mint" is a cute name and a good start but we can do more. It's the only way

The UK not having electrical outlets in the bathroom means you need a really long extension lead to properly clean your toaster.

A very important thing for you to know about Icelandic is that the word "rassgat" (butthole) is used as an endearment about cute things. So if you say someone is "algjört rassgat" (a total butthole) it means they are VERY cute. If the cuteness is overwhelming we say "rúsínurassgat" (raisin asshole).

Minneapolis uterus havers: if you’re bleeding out of cycle and wondering why, it’s the tear gas. Really, it does that

OMG this is so sorely needed! When I run ScoutHack to teach 11+ year-old scouts to make basic websites, the *biggest* struggle is dealing with the primary schoolers' lack of mouse dexterity and keyboard familiarity! Accidentally click-drag selecting code & overwriting it next key press… 😭

It’s possible the Longwood fire will impact up to 20 towns tomorrow. #VicFires

New: we've obtained material explaining how an ICE surveillance system, called Webloc, works. Draw shape on a map, see all phones available there, follow them home. All without warrant “This is a very dangerous tool in the hands of an out-of-control agency.” www.404media.co/inside-ices-...

I will reiterate that if you are an independent journo/hobbyist I will happily set up your ghost install and host it for a few quid above cost price. You set up your own stripe and mailgun accounts, and you get to keep ALL your revenue. And post migration from wordpress/substack is pretty easy.

I am starting to regret my "It is currently the year 2025" tattoo.

Attacking a data center like it’s The Bastille, everyone fleeing with a bushels of RAM to desolder and resolder the chips. One peasant coded guy with a wheelbarrow of SFP+ modules. Manifesting this for 2026.
