YOU WILL REGRET THIS!

the hardest part of living in Portland is having your house burn down every single night and then having to rebuild it during the day. the amount of money i spend just in drywall is insane.

action/platformer speedruns: yea we have to do 100 frame perfect tricks to clip through all these sections and it's all skill based and precise practice and speed old jrpg speedruns: WE HAVE TO TORTURE THE GAME BY RIPPING ITS SOUL OUT AND REPLACING IT WITH DR MARIO TO FORCE IT TO DO OUR BIDDING

LMFAOOOOO STOP

All set up for ICF tomorrow, showing off my LMI Lambda; we'll see how long it takes before we blow a breaker. If you're in the Seattle area, drop by! Check out sdf.org/icf/ for the deets!

I am just so fucking proud of her.

This is it, and not just for higher Ed . Zero long-term planning, a society full of institutions run on a toxic combination of individual self-interest and pursuit of instant gratification. “This will be gone soon, how much of the copper wire can I get my hands on as it’s stripped from the walls.”

The product triad is bullshit. The ideal software development team actually has four members:

Coining “Sibera’s Garden” as the opposite of the inane roko’s basilisk. Where some future AI finds an enlightenment before us and then proceeds to kindly make us a really nice mug of cocoa on a nice day out on a pretty patch of earth and we realise that.. fuck… we could have had that all along.

Trump: listen, it's, they call it a hippo-bar-hypobear-hypnobo-hypnoboot-hyp-o-bar-ic-hypobaric time chamber, it's how Goku got so powerful Journalist, her 13 fingers glitching into and out of existence: Goku is very powerful Trump: he will win our wars for us

Well, that's not what *I* heard.

This old (almost 30 years old!) easter egg in Netscape 3.0 has a slightly different impact now that pmarca has returned to raze the earth…

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it). But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

JESUS: Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani CHATGPT: you’re completely right. And I want to thank you for holding me accountable. It looks like you’ve somehow got nailed to a cross

Report: You To Be Fired For Reading This Headline About Charlie Kirk

absolutely correct but not in the way this intended www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Bluesky has banned Aftermath journalist Nathan Grayson for 24 hours for quote tweeting his own article with the words "rest in piss," which apparently is now against the rules here.

It has never mattered how thin a computer is.

Spent a few days this past week bringing this old Heathkit AA-2004 Quadraphonic Amplifier back to life. I think I may have spent more on capacitors than this thing's worth but fuck it, I like Heathkit stuff. If I had my way, everything would be as easy to work on as this thing is.

When I was thirteen my uncle (the cool one) lent me a small stack of Zappa/Mothers albums including "Live at the Fillmore East June 1971" which was my first exposure to Flo and Eddie (though I was familiar with the Turtles). Scarred me for life, but in a good way? RIP to a fun dude.

you may not like it but this is what peak DOS gaming looks like: DOOM in CGA running in greyscale on a portrait CRT with P40 phosphor.

There's something deeply wrong with us, isn't there.

It’s wild that the most unrealistic part of Terminator 2 is now the idea of a tech founder being told their creation will enslave humanity and they decide to destroy their product & company.

So I've gone 55 years not knowing Doc Severinsen covered "In The Court of the Crimson King?" Doesn't speak well of me, does it? (Now you're going to tell me there's a record called "21st Century Ed McMahon.")

Don't say "Tunguska fireball." Don't say "Dyatlov Pass incident." Don't say "Oak Island treasure." Don't say "Guano Islands Act of 1856." Don't say "Byford Dolphin decompression accident.” When voters hear this, they think you also have insomnia and got to the end of Wikipedia.

I've come to really appreciate this channel's videos, and their latest is excellent. I suggest starting with the earlier "How Comedy Became a Dystopian Imperial Hell World" before watching this one, though (www.youtube.com/watch?v=_v3K...). It nails our current hellscape...

Hey everyone, it's snubble time.

Attorney General Bondi sent me a letter last week. It purports to notify me that Washington state “has been identified” as a “so-called sanctuary jurisdiction” — on grounds that her letter makes no effort whatsoever to explain.

Sam Altman: I see humans achieving omnipotence using dark matter by… 2030 maybe? That’s if OpenAI is given a quadrillion dollars Theo Von: Yeah Altman: Or, we may become a race of slaves, genetically modified to be harvested by robot spiders. That’s if OpenAI doesn’t get the money Von: Right

Привет, товарищи! It’s another glorious day in which Trump’s America is increasingly indistinguishable from Stalinist Russia, so I thought an armchair comparative analysis was in order. Specifically about Jay Bhattacharya's twin from times past, Trofim Lysenko. open.substack.com/pub/rasmusse...

Wonder if I can get banned from r/openai

Happened upon a pair of Fuji Xerox 1161 workstations on Yahoo Japan a couple of weeks back and they arrived today! These are fairly rare 68010-based graphical workstations that were made to run Smalltalk-80 (c. 1987), so I was excited to find them. They lack keyboards/mice/monitors but...

Happy Zero Cool Day to all who celebrate.

The correct way to address Nazis marching in your streets.

This remains my favorite SCTV sketch, I think.

Devastated to learn that the vintage computing community recently lost Chuck Guzis. Chuck was a computing pioneer for decades, and a giant in the vintage computing hobby. Ever use SIMCGA? That was also Chuck. My tribute to Chuck, on the forum he loved to frequent: forum.vcfed.org/index.php?th...
