Bluesky isn’t fun?

"bluesky is a bubble" totally bro, no one ever argues on here

This is for like 87% of everything happening now

Probably 80% of posters madness is downstream of thinking that posting on a niche microblogging platform is, in some way, important, rather than being a way to waste time on your phone

YOU’RE LISTENING TO SISYPHUS FM, THE HOME OF NON-STOP ROCK

Rachel is really accurate on this, but to be fair: only about 50% of tech policy is: "AI IS THE MAGICAL ANSWER TO EVERYTHING" ...because on the remainder we have a split between: "DIGITAL ID IS THE MAGICAL ANSWER TO EVERYTHING" and: "AGE VERIFICATION IS THE MAGICAL ANSWER TO EVERYTHING"

I demand a do over on Memorial Day weekend. Three straight days of cold gray rain was not what my mental health needed.

Wow, bro, wow.

lmao, imagine quitting your job as an environmental humanities professor at a fancy liberal arts college to write faux contrarian takes about Miller Lite

This is great. Kind of an insane thing to do one day after his huge finale show, and very funny. Plus ratings already beat Whiskey Friday wth Tony Dokoupil.

every now and then I think about that one dude who absolutely crashed out when someone said axe throwing was a dumb activity and I hope he's doing worse

remember when gabbard leaked a bunch of SIPRNet chats from trans and queer nsa workers to Chris Ruffo then fired them

The "magical" thing this person argues AI provides is also available to all of us through the simple act of having conversations with other people

fascinating

lmao how

Yellowcard - Gifts and Curses 🤝 Eve6 - Anytime 00s era rock songs that went unnecessarily hard for movie tie-ins

I saw 2008 being referred to as '18 years ago' and I'm still kinda in shock.

We need more walkable, mixed-use datacenters. Like community gardens, people should be able to experience the joy and satisfaction of cultivating their own hardware. Big Cloud has alienated the connection people felt with their computers. Kids should know what it's like to swear at rack mount rails.

I’m not financially qualified to give this advice but I think you should quit your job and just come read all day.

Information security in cyberpunk looks so cool and then you get to do it irl and 90% of your effort is keeping an ancient man in accounts payable from wiring $300k to a criminal running a phishing campaign.

Pentesting looks so cool and then you get to do it and it slowly dawns on you that you’re writing the same report every year

Gregor Samsa awoke from uneasy dreams to find himself an elected representative

A **majority** of those arrested for the Jan 6 attack were white small business owners with past histories of bankruptcy, liens, and tax problems. An attempted coup carried out by realtors, auto dealers, and former cops.

28 years ago today, 7 members of the hacking group L0pht Heavy Industries told the U.S. Senate they could "shut down the internet in 30 minutes."

LLMs have ruined Genius song lyric annotations. I haven't seen such terrible interpretations of written words since 10th grade English class. It's depressing at best.

My 1999 self would weep at how totally broken the internet has become. AI slop, social media walled gardens that rot the brain, surveillance pricing and advertising, every single goddamn website has an endless cloudflare captcha loop before you get to read anything. Burn it all down.

the president is raiding the treasury to put your tax dollars into this mans personal checking account as a reward for what hes doing in this picture

AI companies currently subsidize their users $3 to $25 for every dollar of subscription. As a result, users are very sensitive to *any* price or rate limit changes, and have no idea what their actual token burn is. Token-based billing will be lethal at scale. www.wheresyoured.at/premium-what...
