“Get in, loser, we’re going to hell”

I'm older than you so I can confirm that they came with a little book that had the tutorial in it and you read it on the way home

It’s like a gay onlyfans video. … I mean, so I’ve heard.

OK now do the Metal Gear Ac!d Solid Eye

To definitively answer the burning question I know has been keeping everyone up at night: Yes, NSO Virtual Boy is compatible with TOOL 10,000 Days. And it looks amazing.

After watching most of Star Trek The Next Generation, I can look back and understand why Picard was not good. I really liked it at the time I watched but now I can see how far it drifted from TNG and how poorly it treated those characters. They lost the plot.

ICE being all “We can’t do our job if we have to follow the Constitution” is perfect symmetry with AI tech bros being all “Our AI models don’t work if we have to follow copyright law” How the fuck are any of these assholes even allowed to complain about adhering to a basic social contract?

the impossible number of games that release on Steam every day has been discourse for years why would anybody want to play a game nobody could be bothered to make

So much of our present crisis is coddled, ignorant, and short sighted people tearing down the institutions that protect them because they don’t understand that bad things can happen.

Ok, that was cool. Going to league night now.

I think this is a good article about AI and what’s coming. I agree with almost all of it and would add my concern with a handful of big tech people in control of the answer machine being real bad. shumer.dev/something-bi...

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

Was at the grocery store I heard PONY on the speakers. 🔊 Nice suprise!

The moment a company's revenue depends on ad impressions, engagement metrics, and user data, the product stops being optimized for you. It gets optimized for advertisers and data brokers. This is just one danger of the surveillance business model.

I’m laid up in bed because a colonoscopy had some complications. My friend pointed out the upside was quickly dropping 5lbs. Made me think. We are all just 5 pound sacks of shit waking around. Puts things into perspective.

I have a problem of watching all the tiny home videos YouTube shows me. I need intervention. In every episode someone talks about how they are free because they got rid of all their stuff and then spends half the video to showing you all the storage space they have.

Playing CDs in 2026 is surprisingly easy and affordable. You don’t need specialized equipment, and you probably already own something that can do it. longplaytech.com/posts/how-to...

Oh, no! I thought it was just my own store closing. Now where am I gonna buy my clothes??

I’m finding it remarkable that this @techconnectify.bsky.social video is showing up in ALL of my newsletters — even the non tech ones. Alec certainly struck a chord with a wide audience. (The last 30 min is what you want to see) youtu.be/KtQ9nt2ZeGM?...

Age verification? My curfew was when the street lights came on.

In 1943, musician Woody Guthrie placed a message on his guitar: "This machine kills fascists." I am part of a group that's shipped half a million free 3D-printed whistles to defend against ICE — 200,000 of them in the first week of February alone. This is the story of the "Whistle Crew."

Remember when Celine Dion and Neil Diamond CDs put malware on your PC? Good times. lol youtu.be/JrqhcqLO7ho?...

Here’s the situation in the Twin Cities: Random Bovino-style tear-gassing: Way down Relentless persecution of immigrants: Unchanged Thuggish violence against observers: Way up

Reminder when you watch the Intuit Super Bowl ads, they have Super Bowl ad money because they are a successful rent seekers who have worked for decades to kill free, quality, public tax preparation services donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-death-...

I never noticed this either.

Thinking of starting a YouTube channel and went down the rabbit hole of how to videos. Most of them advise you not to tell your friends and family about it. WTF? Seriously, if your friends aren’t gonna be supportive, they ain’t your friends. Get new friends.

Other than the absolutely false claims the gigantic text makes, the one thing about that site that I dislike most is the way it displays medicine like cosmetics.

Hang it in the Louvre

Guile... Guinan... Guilenan

Here's the full comic, from January 2, 2000. It was the last strip that featured Peppermint Patty, arguably Peanuts greatest character. Schulz died six weeks after it was published. It's perfection.

I keep hearing so much talk about Netflix and the decline of movie theaters. A lot of strategizing and analyzing on how to bring people back. It's not hard. Make good movies. We used to do that and they didn't cost hundreds of millions to make either. www.boxofficemojo.com/month/june/1...

This cannot be something a civilian law enforcement agent is allowed to wear in the US — and an agency that has a culture that tolerates this cannot be saved.

If anybody thinks this is a joke

Today is the birthday of artjst Robert McGinnis (Feb. 3, 1926-March 10. 2025). Most known for illustrating over a 1,200 book covers and dozens of movie posters.

"The format didn't die, they’ve just found a way to shed its labor costs. This strategy seems to replace union-protected talk shows with non-union "video podcasts" that serve the exact same corporate PR playbook."

It’s like 2012 all over again! People calling things that aren’t a podcast a podcast.

multiple trump-created crises converging with deadly results.

This was literally made during Superbowl season because at BuzzFeed we had to make content about whatever was going on that week 😬

In case you ever needed proof that the mainstream media is a complicit arm of propaganda for a fascist regime and deserves no credibility or respect. Not framing a reported $75m movie making $7m as a flop, but as a triumph and a record breaker. In a headline-over-article world, this matters.

Multi CD changers are great and still being produced. A convenient way to keep the music going without the algorithm driving. longplaytech.com/posts/onkyo-...

This shit hits like a sledgehammer right now. It's not even remotely an exaggeration.

I'm Kat Abughazaleh and I approve this message.

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

You can test new tech ideas using the Seinfeld Test Would the product eliminate the plot of an episode? (Google maps, cell phones, paypal, battery packs) Good tech. Would the product inspire new Seinfeld plots? (NFTs, AI chatbots, crypto currency, blindboxes, metaverse land sales) Bad tech.

[click] nice, lets see what the Technology Connections guy has to say about the state of solar tech! [1hr20 later] 👀 www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtQ9...

You know it’s bad when Technology Commections goes off the rails. Love it. See the end, but the whole video is great. youtu.be/KtQ9nt2ZeGM...

Just a reminder, the greatest living American historian filmmaker, Ken Burns, released a 720 min exploration of every facet of the American revolution using zero generative AI and paying for all of its assets instead of cobbling it from stolen data, then he gave it away for free on PBS this year.

You’ll want this version for the 7th Heaven mod.
