Found the coolest website that takes random found cassette tapes people submit and digitizes them. I’m listening to an NYC hip hop station from 1994: intertapes.net

SKULL OF THOMAS AQUINAS: TAKE A LEFT NOW PRIEST: No, the GPS says we have to keep going— SKULL: I KNOW A SHORTCUT PRIEST: Do you remember the last ti— SKULL: FOR THOSE WITH FAITH, NO EVIDENCE IS NECESSARY; FOR THOSE WITHOUT IT, NO EVIDENCE WILL SUFFICE

www.bbc.com/news/article... Another good opportunity to remind you of Deth Veggie's First Law of the Internet: LIE TO EVERY SITE ABOUT ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING YOU CAN. Fake names, fake birthdays, fake pets' names, and maiden names, and first streets, and schools and... everything you can.

It’s Doom’s 32nd birthday. Which means it’s nearly the 32nd anniversary of the epic grounding I received for the long-distance calls to exotic FTP servers… Still worth it. (Also, maybe schedule that colonoscopy…)

Something similar happens in the software industry. A lot of engineers are being pressed by managers who generate a bunch of toy code using genAI over a couple of hours, then wonder aloud why the people who work for them are being so inefficient.

i’m so happy for him

Canadians! You can now vote for the Canadian Word of the Year! (If we had the option to choose a Canadian WOTY in French as well, I'd suggest the gender-neutral pronoun "iel" which has been in the news a lot in Quebec this year, but probably not applicable since this is an English dictionary)

I was so excited to put the villain in villanelle, too...

Oh sure, there’s a hyper-specific German word for every occasion… right up until you need to describe the overwhelming desire to belt out John Denver and wake people after Midnight. I mean, honestly.

on your first day in prison, go up to the biggest inmate in there and ask them for the syllabus- it's actually more helpful than you think

Secret police hate this one simple trick: When the security police eventually came to her flat to arrest her, she stripped and rang her friend Robin Hankey...She told the security police authoritatively: “You can’t possibly arrest me, I’m naked.” www.theguardian.com/media/2017/j...

Almost a year now since I received this absolutely classic burn from the Canadian government.

Breathe in for luck, breathe in so deep This air is blessed, you share with me This night is wild, so calm and dull These hearts, they race, from self control Your legs are smooth as they graze mine We're doing fine, we're doing nothing at all

It's my favorite day! It's the 38th anniversary of the Max Headroom signal broadcast intrusion! 1st incident lasted 25s during the 9PM news on WGN-TV in Chicago; The 2nd, 2hrs later, lasted ~90s on PBS affiliate WTTW during Dr. Who. You can watch it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqge...

They're also responsible for one of the best emails I've ever received, when the college office sent out a plea for sightings of Professor Biscuit while conveniently forgetting to mention that he was a cat...(I won't comment on how often a similar email might have gone out about human Professors...)

This is the way. Do Not Comply.

Not sure who made this, but probably the most accurate representation of the current state of tech to date

"don't pay attention to any of that frivolous humanities education, STEM all the way - what, do you think you can hack a computer with poetry or something?" apparently, yes

authors you have the chance to do the funniest thing right now

When I was three, I realized that wet, pulpy paper and wet, pulpy Ritz crackers looked pretty similar. My paper making efforts were, uh, mixed… But lots of things have electrons, and I have lots of things. I’m so going to buy an island when this is all over…

Things you say on Friday, at work, because it’s 03:30: “Man, by now, I bet Dinosaur Jr. has junior dinos of its own…” Big “there, there grandpa” energy in the responses I got…

“Fuck it. I just want to listen to Hüsker Dü and finish writing this stupid step function” is not a sentence I *expected* to say today, but here we are… Now we just need to get that ready for standup. Maybe change it to The Replacements? 🤔
