For years the people of pandora have lived under the tyranny of the anime equivalent of people who order French fries and chicken tenders at the Mexican restaurant

Legal weed is fine to corny, illegal weed was cool, thus we must conclude that drugs aren’t cool but crimes are.

WiiM launched a few smart speakers at roughly the HomePod price point, unfortunately whatever beef they have with Apple isn’t sorted so it has everything but AirPlay. One has a touch screen. Initial impressions I’ve seen seem very positive.

Your power bill has tripled and you can't afford new PC parts just to create this.

Every time I see a new person attempt the Manbreaker on the timeline.

oh my god oh my god oh my god

The DC public golf courses are what golf *should* be in America and *is* in Scotland, Ireland, and England. They are communal treasures and the opposite of the kind of golf elitism that makes most of Bluesky hate golf. You do not want these courses to get ransacked unless you're just performing

OK, I’ve seen enough. Gonna cut out the middle man and make an Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography machine.

i had to drop what i was doing to make this

Chris Evans watching through his kitchen window as the truck Disney sent slowly backs up to fill his swimming pool with Scrooge McDuck’s gold.

A friend is running Bluefin on all his non-server computers and it looks neat. Immutable Fedora base, core packages overlaid on the base system, COPRs for nonfree stuff, cool mascot.

I was told by an ex Lucasarts designer I worked with at Telltale that Dash Rendar, the main character of Shadows of the Empire, got his name from the command the engineers used to update the scene: -render

roll a deception check with disadvantage

Long held the opinion that if you want a good soundtrack get a musician that put real albums out and M83’s work on Resurrection deserves an Oscar. Already in the pantheon. youtu.be/b0xD7i1BrHU?...

I know she's just kind of saying whatever, but it's on-brand for Bari Weiss to review a damning story about the US sending people to a concentration camp and respond "we can't air this, have you even asked Tom Homan if he feels bad about any of it yet?" Perfect readout of who she sees, and doesn't.

So everyone's watching the 60 Minutes that was supposed to be banned and everyone who knows how PDFs work can unredact the Epstein files, it's like the Christmas spirit has irony poisoning this year

Rhythm Doctor’s bonus stages get fucking devious with how many characters with entirely different rhythms they make you juggle at once.

i took such nasty delight back in old times on like team fortress classic saying "oh shit theres a new gun press alt-f4" and seeing 2 or 3 people disappear from the game

An additional part of this is that the audience that will pay for journalism instead of listening to a kind of stupid person plagiarize an article on TikTok is almost exclusively this website and three subreddits.

There are very few scenarios, economically or flavor wise, in which buying a rotisserie chicken is not superior to buying raw chicken or basically any other meat.

if bari weiss had tried to do 9/11 there'd be three towers now

I like Dispatch a lot but even without the Superhero part it is the most Prime Video coded video game in history.

Predator: Badlands is about the tactical advantage of having homies.

The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

dear santa, define good 💭

Regular space bar is a waste of space when you can cut it in half and make one of them return. Also both of them can be used for layering when held. It’s objectively better along with “put control where cap locks normally is”

The fuck is a jingle horse.

Bless everyone who maintains the tools to download video files from proprietary players.

it must have felt so good to be the digital media manager when the word came down to unschedule the piece from the 60 minutes feed but no one said anything about unscheduling it from the international website

Finally someone sells a concrete keyboard with a split space bar. Really hard to find both of those qualities. keeb.supply/products/amp...

When Bari Weiss is either forced out of CBS or the company implodes, who do you think is gonna run her op-ed about how it isn’t her fault? NYT feels too obvious but not ruling it out.

AI Slop Ni No Kuni Sequel

Benn Jordan is another great study of this how it started / how it's going www.youtube.com/channel/UCsh...

I have read a lot of poorly written criticisms of the Avatar movies in the last week and none of them are as scathing as the “no wani tuk-tuk [jack off motion] [everyone laughs]” bit from Haha, You Clowns.

It makes sense if you understand that equity poisons basically any good you need to live a comfortable life but I’m also not going to Steve for housing policy.

I do think the RAM issue is so big that it may force governments to intervene. Like I assume this shit is ultimately very bad for China’s economy and SK Hynix and Samsung are right over there.

If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...

Gonna start using Letterboxd more boxd.it/cau389

Tried replacing a battery on a keyboard and it started smoking and did the Bart “yuhoh” noise

Good morning and happy winter solstice

Just an update: if you decided to bet against Bari Weiss, you can collect your payout now.

The Chinese Room is one a classic thought experiment, and posits the following scenario: what if a room was really Chinese?

Forgot that The Nutcracker contains a sensual belly dance.

[preparing to get screamed at] I think I officially don’t need to know if you’re mad that an article is paywalled. Perhaps that can be an Inside Thought

Tchaikovsky is the goat but half of the Nutcracker being dominated by Stahlbaum party is dumb as hell. You don’t even get to see them crack the nut Crackatook by a man who has never shaved nor worn boots since birth.

Got nice and dressed up for The Nutcracker and everyone here is like wearing Patagonia jackets and shit because I forgot rich people don’t have taste to the extent that they ever did.
