Today was pretty good, time to open Bluesky and find out why that actually isn’t true.

For Sale: Babe Face, Never Shorn.

Brent Crude sounds like a tame WWE wrestler name.

Joining CashGive is easy, just sign in through your Telegram account and set up a bitcoin wallet. Then we will set you up with an ai that will give your money to people in need automatically based on a news feed we get from X.

ai is a tool like any other, but other tools don't tell me how good I am at using them. Photoshop is never like "Good idea! Using the magnetic lasso tool was definitely better than creating a mask based on channel data!"

What if Apple intentionally messed up the iOS keyboard to try and make people use ai more.

someone at apple really said "lets make the playback controls on the macos music app hard to see" and everyone else agreed apparently?

DtMF: Debí tomar mas flanes

Make a joke, commit to the bit, and never explain yourself. This strategy hasn’t won me any friends or influence, but I’m also not funny.

I am a very amateur animator but I made this five years ago and finally today added sound to it. No AI used (that I’m aware of). All animation by me. Music by Bensound License code: NGWSBCOXHLL4ZRZD Artist: : Benjamin Tissot #animation

Hey the guy climbed the thing!

While ai can be useful as a tool it is mostly boosting the noise portion of the signal to noise ratio. How much infrastructure and cost is someone like YouTube having to deal with to host millions of bad ai videos? There was always noise, but now it is too easy to make and harder to distinguish.

More than 200,000 Danish citizens have signed a petition to buy California as a response to Trump’s attempt to take Greenland. They say they will provide Californians with “rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.”

Scott Adams, creator of Dilbert, passed away today from cancer. Despite what he later became, he was an enormous inspiration to me, and I think a lot of the comedic flow I do still derives from him.

I never fully understood Muppet lore until AI Overview stepped in. Thanks Google!

New California tool can stop brokers from selling your personal online data. Here's how

Several years ago at Spain JS I got up to give an impromptu lighting talk and thoroughly embarrassed myself (in my eyes anyway) and today in the shower, like 10-12 years later, I thought of a much better talk to give. So that just shows you my current mental state.

Just think of all the infrastructure, electricity, and resources spent maintaining and using the unsubscribe function of emails and texts.

Why do I always save the most questionable bite of sushi for last? So many wonderful sushi experiences ruined by that last perilous bite.

it really is like a rug pull when so many "jobs" pages on company web sites do such a good job at telling you why you'll love working there and when you finally scroll down through 100 miles of hype you just see "No current openings."

Based on the number of ads I’m getting on instagram for Threads I’d say they are trying to get a Q4 usage bump to help their KPIs

It’s just “The Doctor”!!

As someone who doesn't watch sports but does love human suffering, I'm having a great night

This may seem like a small grievance but there are too many apps that get away with sending one or two marketing push notifications to my phone even though in their own settings I have them disabled. Yes, I could disable notifications at the os level but those apps offer other good notifications.

not sure how this keeps happening but my credit card number got stolen again, hmu if you need my new number.

I am a fan of marching bands and DCI but why do they always add weird extra notes to songs when they play them? The sung version will be like Dah Dah Dah and the marching band version will be like Dah da-diddle da-da and it isn’t like they are covering for a gliss or anything

One thing about using ai or "vibe coding" is that it completely removes any sense of ownership. I don't want to strain this analogy but its sort of like hand-crafted vs mass-produced. Maybe it still works but it wasn't made with much craft or care and probably has quality issues.

Random question but thanks for caring I guess? Thanks @customink.bsky.social

Serious question, how did I end up not following any fun people on here? Or did all the fun people just start getting really depressed?

I want everyone to be able to give feedback about the app I'm working on (at work) and I do not want to forbid anyone from filing bugs but "it doesn't work" and "its buggy" just aren't helpful bug reports and so I do feel like we need some kind of class on how to properly report an issue.

We need to get official agencies and other thing of Twitter/x. There’s no way I’m making an account there and when half a news article is just embedded tweets it sort of ruins the access.

Backpack ads that explain how easy it is to “take your work with you” are missing the point of why I’m looking for a backpack in the first place

It feels like there is a pattern to what we find meme-worthy.

This is your reward for completing the puzzle on the back of a box of @lifecereal.quakeroats.com

Is EnforcerCon in town? I've seen way more people cosplaying as police and the military than normal.

Earthquake! #LosAngeles

I feel like posting this image again. I dunno, something in the wind I guess.

Around Philly. #Photography #Philadelphia

I try to shop local as best I can, but when a new local place moves in that is better than the current local place I feel guilty about abandoning the old one. Not guilty enough to not do so, alas.

I’d feel better about people selling my contact info if they also shared my unsubscribe status globally.

ITS MY TURN - dashare.zone ADMIN

I need help with this: #techsupport My parents owned a business and I helped them manage some IT related things like email and a website and so on. I got them set up on Google's suite of services probably nearly 20 years ago. Now that business is gone and they are almost retired but...

Apple AI Assistant while I'm watching John Wick and John Wick comes on the screen: That's John Wick.

Email sent to me: Should the video start muted? Apple AI Summary: Sender wants to know if the video should start muted.

Tech is so bad right now. I just spent like 30 minutes trying to log my kids in to their Minecraft account but kept failing because the Microsoft account logged in to the windows PC didn’t match and it was trying to use windows hello to log in and there was no way to turn that off.

The instant crush I get on most Röyksopp guest vocalists.

Wanted: An iOS automation that responds "Stop" to any texts the ai detects are political donation messages.

They spangle every angle with sprinkles.

Why is the experience of turning off a macbook for a week and turning it back on again so painful? Alerts for every message I received the prior week but already read on a different device. Email is sluggish to update. Reminders and Calendar events going haywire.

Where we go one we go all. We go straight down in value. All go down.
