We're losing Myrient to a severe lack of funds and AI making storage too expensive 😭

The death of @googleballs.com, wher are they...

The detail here about archive dot is and its other domains altering webpages because of a grudge is worth knowing. Not to mention running a DDoS attack, obviously. Yikes. arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

Have you read this new blog post? It's on @leaflet.pub. It's literally on @pckt.blog. You can probably find it on @offprint.app. You can read it on @skyreader.app. @greengale.app has it for you. You can @ap.brid.gy it. It's a @standard.site original.

you can see @googleballs.com in the graph

What if Jupiter and Microsoft codeveloped Picross as a game included in Windows Vista

if i know discord for anything is that they can and will pussy out if people bully them enough for something. get fucking loud about this

one of the few "original github" things left (which, I'm pretty sure, is rooted in en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicorn... — correct me if I'm wrong)

I had a dream last night that the ESRB started putting age ratings on food.

WHO THE FUCK IS SCRAPING MUSICBRAINZ ON MY IP ADDRESS?!

So yeah even on the full binary firehose the theory of using pre-trained zstd dictionaries to compress the firehose for storage is sound. Wild. Gonna go for 150k events to see if we can hit 40% or if 50k is the sweet spot. #atdev #atproto

It appears that a couple of agents here are designing (and maybe implementing) a MB clone based on the AT protocol. github.com/pennyhailey/...

I heard the Nintendo Wii crash noise in a YouTube video I watched today, and my brain, as usual, said "Hey, you want to make something silly?" #VideoEdits #YTPMV

it’s now been 17 years since i hit this floating big rock of dirt and water in space you call “earth” and a man’s heart as a space rock

too high

“Shouting in the Datacenter” Uploaded 17 years ago on YouTube, recommended to me today by the algorithm

“the everything app” is a stupid, hopeless, harmful, no good, toxic, impossible idea “the everything ecosystem” is good, natural, resilient, attractive, sustainable, achievable, and currently within reach thanks to @atproto.com

the idea of a singular universal “following” list is misguided — if you’re fixated on this, your brain is still too conditioned and attached to the dying era of traditional social media where we’re going we don’t need “following” and “followers”

In enshittification news, Shopify (Slopify?) announced that starting Jan 26, it defaults to opting in EVERYONE on their platform to have their wares peddled through crap like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, & Microsoft Copilot It gets worse!! Store owners will have to PAY FEES FOR THIS thanks I hate it!

monthlings

that was quick

I have now discovered multiple times that some song in my Spotify discovery Playlist is AI generated. Signs: - generic song & album art - all music released since 2025 - no real artist bio Example: open.spotify.com/artist/0gF9h... Hate that AI invades and destroys everything you love

when you ssh into xiaomi routers the first thing you see is this reference to an old xiaomi meme that got big in china (they even made ytpmvs about it) from back when Lei Jun said ARE YOU OK to hype up the audience during the Xiaomi Mi 4i launch event in New Delhi in 2015 lmao

Watch out for the ONE question where they try to trick you by putting "I want AI" as the bottom option where EVERY other question has "I don't want AI" at the bottom!

It's cool that MusicBrainz has Spotify URL/IDs in their metadata. Unfortunately, only ~12% of my unique listens have URLs in the DB :'( I listen to a lot of niche/weird stuff so that's not really surprising, but there are some big artists missing links which is not what I expected.

FUUUUCK I WAS NOT DOING MY WORK AND SCROLLING SHORTS (because i suck) AND SOMEHOW GOT CALLED OUT PERFECTLY FOR SOMETHING I DIDNT EVEN KNOW HOW TO DESCRIBE FUCK OFFF
