Picard invites the senior staff to take part in a holodeck murder mystery every year, often drawn from his library of old earth dramas. The year Gowron found out about this and invited himself for the first time was... interesting.

West coast friends, it's our time

D:

working most of the holidays but now I wanna spend that time naming each and every icon 💖

I have ~400 questions here. Who is crazy enough to wear it? Where specifically is that background? What the heck is the debris on the ground? The hell kind of operations are you running that you'd need this?? (I do understand, ofc, why people would want the backpack of bad ideas: style points)

Bari Weiss: finally, I have the ultimate power to keep this critical 60 minutes segment from ever seeing the light of day Canada:

Amazing work from whoever was up in N6914W over Ohio … www.flightaware.com/live/flight/...

Since I continue to be on the ice or out when the Leafs play, I've not seen a lot of games and the ones I did see were truly dismal. Based on scrollback tonight: oof. More of the same, eh? Will be hilarious to watch a late season tear to maybe squeak into the playoffs. Funnier if they miss, tho.

Of all the sins of AI, this is an unexpected and deeply annoying one

Trans rights are human rights, in the most profound and fundamental way.

"Your body, your choice." I've been saying that to my kids since they could talk. There's no autonomy without bodily autonomy. No freedom without freedom to do with your body what you want and to decline to have done to your body what you don't want. Freedom begins with our control over our bodies.

Once again a reminder: We can have trans rights, bodily autonomy, gender nonconformity, and freedom of expression, or we can have none of these things. There’s no third option.

Finally!! (For those who didn't know, black plastic used to be non-recyclable in Toronto for the stupidest reason: the recycling plant's conveyer belt was black, so the optical sorter couldn't "see" black plastic)

their SVP is on Twitter saying they're "rolling this back" while signaling it's temporary and, y'know, too late. you're going to try again, and no you are not providing enough value to be worth it at any price for private repos

North America: “If you don’t believe in Santa, he won’t bring you any gifts.” Japan: “If you don’t believe in Santa, he’ll turn into a soul-eating monster who will kill you and it will be all your fault.”

Hey! Are you gifted in piecing together game data? I'm going to need help during this live stream today! I'm putting raw EPROMs in a public folder, but need help piecing them together. Systems are NES, GEN, SNES, GB, GG, Jag. There are new unreleased games here! www.youtube.com/live/RJwR8jX...

my static got a kick out of this when i pulled it up as we waited for people to get back from a DDoS too bad i dont know how to play chess (i have since made an altered version for checkers)

I seem to have forgotten how to sleep again. It's not feeling great. Very glad for a break soon. Gonna spend the weekend hanging with my favourite person AND might even do some touristy Toronto stuff. Just for funsies. Maybe stuff we take for granted having it all right here :)

“try water fox or ice weasel” try chill penguin. install flame mammoth. you just download bubble crab. literally just use boomer kuwanger. sting chameleon has a search bar, use it to find toxic seahorse.

I've definitely hit my tolerance limit for long threads. Once you hit 20ish posts there should be something in your brain, or even your app, to nudge "have you considered a blog post?"

Love it when he does the thing.

I'm good with being bad when it's at least fun. Or funny. Otherwise why suffer watching the slog? In a related story, this Edmonton Pittsburgh game is hilarious ^_^

I don't have a steam deck, don't have a PC capable of Win 11, and my PC has an ooooold video card with not a lot of RAM... even if I wanted to play the latest and greatest on potato settings, why would I when my consoles are around? Probably not the only one in this boat!

in the days since members have fled the discord, the chatbot wished people happy holidays and of course the anthropic exec responded and you just have to read this lmfao www.404media.co/anthropic-ex...

Coach, srsly, when can we get together to go over my gaps in the playbook? "Cutter, you're playing great; real threat around the net. You're putting points on the board. Don't overthink it." Then I buried one in the 3rd to tie the game so maybe I should chill like coach says, lol #JennHockey 🥅🏒

A cool result of everything having AI in it now is there are a bunch of buttons on every application that I have to be careful to never push, and everything takes five more seconds to load during which there's an animation of bonzi buddy thinking really hard

posted about my Apple ID woes, please share widely? hey.paris/posts/appleid/

Since I now only have an old app that can actually view bsky on a phone I don't carry, it's *really* cut down on my social media. Good for mental health, blah blah blah. So opening this tonight and catching up on all the horrible news of the weekend sure hits hard ;_;

Fuck this. Fuuuuuuck this

Please spend more time clicking on (and sharing!) links to personal sites, your friend's Bandcamp, that specialist news site, and that forum you used to read daily than posting about how you miss the old internet. The old internet's still here! You just stopped visiting!

Whoever thought to put rule lines on the back of wrapping paper, deserves a Nobel Prize. This is up there with sliced bread, ballpoint pens, and the slip differential.

I will never forgive the tech bros for ruining cute animal videos.

Had a bit of break last week as weather always got worse around game nights and things were cancelled. Felt rusty af out there today, but when you finish +2 with two apples in a 2-2 tie you can only be so annoyed with yourself! god lord my cardio needs help in a hurry tho <_< #JennHockey 🥅🏒

this cookie recipe has the serving size set to the entire batch, and honestly i think more recipes should be so realistic

every single new game studio featuring ex-Riot, Blizzard, Valve, Epic, Respawn devs: "We just quit our jobs and spent the last five years and 500 million dollars in total secrecy making our new competitive multiplayer extraction shooter moba that will launch with 100 concurrent players. LFG!"

Yes it's true! Instead of the Game Awards I recommend watching my GDC lecture on the state of video game preservation. I put my entire ass into this and it would mean a lot if you watched. youtu.be/_00AjQNjgDk

I remember doing the deal for Epic Mickey, and Bob Iger shooting laser beams out his eyes at me in the Disney dining room. “Don’t let this video game fuck up Mickey.” Oh well. That’s over.

Do I love that Pierre Poilievre is bleeding members? Heck yes. Do I hate that the Liberals are so conservative that it's enticing Conservatives to join them? Heck yes.

Again, apologizing to all videogame environment artists who knocked up satirical posters for their games, I should not have rolled my eyes, yes, even you Cyberpunk billboard team, I am sorry

When people talk about datacenters in orbit I keep thinking about this Matt Braga article from forever ago about how computers in space have to be hardened down to the transistor level against radiation. www.vice.com/en/article/o...

bless old YouTube How To videos (5+ years old) since they *actually show the thing* and it's not clickbait crap.
