Lmfao every AI defense piece is like "AYY I FUCKIN SUCK BRO HOPEFULLY THIS FUCKIN STEAL YOUR SHIT MACHINE WILL MAKE ME SUCK SLIGHTLY LESS OK"

At some point, you're going to hear "this is Captain Zane, I'll be your pilot today" and you're just going to have to accept that

my nan is an actual, literal ww2-era nazi so… nah

#MetroidPrime4: Use this massive cannon to travel between zones in a pod. You will soar through the air, communicating the vastness of this land. Also #MetroidPrime4: Jog back via a tunnel under said cannon when you land.

It’s funny what kind of “productivity” gets these dork’s skirts blowing up isn’t it AI’s big lie is that it will boost productivity, and there’s not a shred of evidence for it appropriately accommodating people with ADHD literally helps us be more productive and they’re like no no no not like that

After a game-winning block by Luke Kornet, the Spurs hold on for a 114-112 win in Orlando. San Antonio improves to 15-6, and 7-2 without Victor Wembanyama. Absolutely massive stretch.

it's wild how the positive use cases are like "save 5 minutes reading a long doc" and "write a generic email faster" and the negative use cases are "get encouraged to dive deeper in psychosis, misogyny, or suicidal thoughts" and we're still on the fence about overall value

Same organisation that told Blake Griffon they wanted him to be a lifer, gave him a fake jersey retirement ceremony and then shipped him to Detroit. They need to sign DeAndre Jordan and then mess with him to complete the "fuck Lob City" trilogy. #NBAsky

Some idle thoughts on this for fun, in three broad categories: 1. The role of media 2. Platform hell 3. “And if all that somehow works…”

I once said "mate get a hobby" to a dude mouthing off during a soccer game (we were opponents) and he just stared into the void for a bit

Because of @shineyezehuhh.bsky.social, I've read: The Guy She Was Interested in Wasn't a Guy at All (now a fave), Love Bullet and Chainsaw Man. And watched a bunch of Gundam. Next: Wind Breaker, The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity and Baby Assassins. Absolutely shaped my media diet this year.

Reckon I've spent as much time thinking about @deadstaticdrive.com as playing it, mostly turning over two thoughts: - The combo of "unknowable eldritch horror" and "the Americana freedom of a car and a highway" is absolutely delicious. - It's a scavenger game with an abundance mindset.

Michael Jordan retired 3 times. #NBAsky

Wemby took two field goal attempts in the first half, didn't block a shot, and completely controlled the game.

Elliot Anderson gonna get hit with the “excessive call for pass” and drag down his match rating #NFFC #UEL

Wemby in game one against Dallas: 40 points 15/21 from the floor 9/11 from the line 15 rebounds 3 blocks 1 steal 1 assist 0 turnovers ... in under 30 minutes. (And Dallas have some damn good big defenders.) #NBAsky

Wemby is a 7'5" (allegedly) free throw merchant #NBAsky

Chuffed to be getting Ryan Ruocco on the Spurs' first game of the season. Just gotta get Rebecca Lobo out there for the dream team. #NBAsky

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH VICTOR WEMBANYAMA

Fictional villains: my motivation involves a complex backstory around lost love and a deep yearning to be understood Real life villains: being cruel makes me feel like a big strong man

just absolutely cackling watching Wemby play basketball #NBAsky

Houston's half-court offence is like me trying to finish a plate of nachos (messy, sluggish, occasionally saucy) #NBAsky

Whole lotta replies and quotes saying "this drove me to Linux" aaaaaand... same. Fedora (and Bazzite) KDE are real nice. Can't see myself going back.

Fun few minutes for Reed Sheppard. Got cooked off the dribble a few times. Was missed when he was open for 3 a few times. Nailed the 3 and got a nice steal. Then over dribbled and threw Sengun a hand grenade. He's going to be a fun watch this season. #NBAsky

Impressed the NBA slapped a little "Tissot" logo on the green coaches-challenge light. Gotta brand everything. #NBAsky

"Amen Thompson running people over" will be a fun highlight reel at the end of the season. #NBAsky

I love @codyhoudek.bsky.social’s occasional “how I’d change the NBA‘s rules” tangents on the excellent Thinking Basketball pod. Sooooo I did my own. #NBAsky

that’s your money, folks

I have some good ideas #NBAsky

This is true. But, also, counterpoint: beast crest, go ham.

Every blog I write inevitably gets a rant about capitalism. Now, it's my silly basketball blog's turn. #NBAsky

i cannot overstate how messy my WNBA fandom is rn

back on my bullshit #WNBA #LVAces

Fave movies of the 21st century, plain text edition: Portrait of a Lady on Fire (GOAT'd) Godzilla Minus One Spirited Away Hot Fuzz (So fun) Hundreds of Beavers (Unhinged genius) Into the Spider-Verse Mad Max: Fury Road Parasite Anatomy of a Fall (Beautifully tense) The Raid (The door kill)

the broadcast showing Hali's injury like #nbafinals

PSA for studio analysts: This is why you don't "just nut up and play" with a calf strain

just tried to put some trash in the bin: SGA blocked me and JDub ran across the road to dunk it in my neighbour's bin #nbasky

In the spirit of father's day (in the US) and Orlando trading for Desmond Bane, I put together a quick article about my dad and the Magic. He chose the Magic as his team when I was a young kid – and, honestly, never really cared about them – but I still love the team all the same. #NBAsky

Dug a frog pond in the backyard and spent the next 12 months giving my partner daily updates on: frog spawn, tadpoles, tadpoles with tiny legs, tadpoles with slightly bigger legs, tadpoles with full legs and tails, frogs with stubby tails, and, finally just-plain frogs.

Music's the big one for me: dad played "Songs for the Deaf" by Queens of the Stone Age in the car one day and changed music for me. He's also responsible for my interest in buddhism (life defining) and got me books on masculinity and philosophy when I was going through it as a teen. Love him.

Haliburton IS corny and that’s why he’s good

Give this a read before game three of the #NBAfinals: the NBA needs Tyrese Haliburton. The gist: rn, the league is too self-serious. It's filled with people that think making billions of dollars turns the sport into more than sweaty people putting a ball in a hoop. Hali plays with joy. (cont.)

Frosty Games Fest had an incredibly high hit rate for me – including 'Cast n Chill', which was the first game in aaaaaaages that was so beautiful it made me say "goddamn" outloud. store.steampowered.com/app/3483740/...

Despite being an Aces fan, I kinda hope the Lynx go all the way this year. Phee and McBride are cooking. #WNBAsky (I think the Aces are cooked – as title contenders – and have been low on 'em since before the offseason. Also wouldn't be surprised if some spicy ✨ FO drama ✨ drops at some point.)

Meant to publish this before game two of the #NBAFinals but: Tyrese Haliburton plays basketball with a joy in his heart that comes from truly understanding that his job is silly as hell. And the NBA needs that. #NBAsky

“What if the animals from Avatar: The Last Airbender, but worse?”

Watch Nico go "Flagg's a 4, AD wants to play the 4, Kyrie's out, we need a guard" and draft Harper. Just for the chaos. #NBAsky

Jazz got Pistoned #NBAsky
