[Minor Stranger Things Spoilers] I like how at the end of Stranger Things the main characters put away their roleplaying game, presumably for good, because they’ve grown up. Because we all know roleplaying games completely stop when you graduate high school and you can never play them again.

Had some time to kill with my daughter today and on a whim we checked out the AGO. OMG it's awesome! I've been before, but for some reason I didn't really appreciate it as much. Maybe an age thing? Also they had this David Blackwood exhibit and I was totally enthralled by his entire process. So […]

My lil pi 5 is growing up with its own built in ups with special big boy case to accommodate.

So satisfying to make. A Star Trek bridge simulator for Star Trek adventures! Multiple players can join on their web browsers and choose different bridge stations. https://github.com/tommertron/staStarShipSimulator/releases/tag/install

@gruber Well worth a listen. Some great unheard nuggets from Mossberg about trying to talk Jobs off a ledge after the stolen iPhone 4. https://www.theverge.com/podcast/844408/inside-the-high-drama-of-the-iphone-4

@gruber C’mon this is screaming for a DF post. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/09/us/politics/rubio-state-department-font.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share

@birchtree Re ai adoption at work. We tend to hear about companies that mandate AI at work but there aren’t a lot of headlines about the restrictions companies put in place around ai usage in the workplace. Many companies still have polices against using any sort of gen ai at work for […]

So did Netflix become HBO before HBO became Netlflix? Or the other way around?

Hey, I made an MCP server for #anybox! https://github.com/tommertron/anyboxMCP

Who has a credit card and ordered a UPS attachment for the pi? This guy!

Apparently typing "okay how's my pihole yaml looking?" to ChatGPT is a thing I do now.

Working demo of the Portfolio Planner up! https://portfolioplanner.tommertron.com/

Furious week of #vibecoding has led to this: a portfolio / capacity planning tool! Courtesy of the Claude Max plan! This is going to be very helpful to me; I don't know if it will make sense to anyone else, but i would really love if people tried it and gave feedback / submitted PRs to improve. […]

Read this about the author’s experiences with “Copaganda” and cops in general while camping this weekend. So well written and want to get the book from which it’s excerpted. Via @jkottke https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-features/copaganda-book-excerpt-1235351675/

@waffles This is the thing (from @birchtree ) that got me not so worried about energy consumption of moderate llm usage. https://birchtree.me/blog/another-study-on-llm-energy-use/

This is amazing. Guy creates the lost text adventure he worked on 40 years ago when he was 14. Playable in browser. https://scottandrew.com/blog/2025/06/you-can-now-play-plot-of-the-phantom-the-text-adventure-game/

Wow, it’s been a long time since I fingered @waffles. Felt good.
