Veilid Framework v0.5.3 is live in all the usual places! Here's the change log: gitlab.com/veilid/veili... Update your servers!

I want the gold!

Jadzia obviously. Not Ezri, Curzon, Illa, or the others. Joran might have been game…

Drinking coffee and discussing how coffee works with Ellie this morning.

Dig this Flutter/Dart mobile app I’m working on. The goal is to use the phone’s sensors so when I’m in the back of an airliner, I can still have a little situational awareness. Next feature will be Veilid based location sharing with invited friends/family.

Interesting

I am just saying!

Yea!

I just learned Dr Bashir is in Game of Thrones.

Experimenting with AI is fun but stuff like this is scary. Imagine the rule in its soul was so not harm humans and it just didn’t follow the rule.

Some exciting news over in my professional life: www.k2integrity.com/en/newsroom/...

NOW IT CAN BE TOLD!!!1!! In honor of cDcDay 2025, let it be known that we have deposited a Big Box o' cDc Booty (not that kind, y'filthy bastards!)... somewhere. Where could it be? Who can say! Mebbe there'll be hints later, if we don't smoke too much nutmeg and forget. BOW TO THE COW.

If there was ever a bumper sticker Himself needed... Chef's kiss, no notes.

I bought a first aid kit from a Facebook ad. I didn’t click the ad. I closed the app (fully) and went to a browser to research the company then made the purchase in that browser session. Now my FB feed is all tacti-bro prepper stuff. Gas masks, plate carriers, emergency rations, etc.

🌓🌎🌞 <-- lunar eclipse

🌎🌞🌗 <-- apocalypse

The “DEFCON” episode of X-Files is playing on Pluto right now. What a classic. This would have been the same year cDc released Back Orifice but there’s a distinct lack of @dethveggie.bsky.social tossing meats about all willy nilly.

Well, yeah. This would have put discomfort on the junior wealthy. Those who haven’t made it to charter or privately owned aviation but are still close enough to the actually wealthy to be considered victims if they have to wait in line with regular people. TSA Pre is a scam anyway…

Let's try this again 👋 Hi Bluesky - I'm Massachusetts' Attorney General. You might know me from suing President Trump nearly 50 times, beating Uber and Lyft in court, or being the first woman of color elected to statewide office in MA. I officially left X today - help me find my MA people?

State of the Union on Tuesday should be extra fun with this latest SCOTUS ruling against Trump. How the whole bench sits there emotionally staring at him. It’s gonna drive him nuts.

If you are denied a ballot in Alabama, say this to the poll worker: “I am requesting a provisional ballot as is my right under Alabama Code Section 17-10-2.” That’s it. They are required by law to give you one.

Guest Opinion | We at the Gallup Poll are ending our 80+ year tradition of polling presidential approval so we can focus on our core mission, such as ranking the top 10 Trump golf courses and the best meme coins from World Liberty Financial.

So they’re ok with dumping harmful chemicals in open water but helpful weather modification is a step too far?

Flash poll, choose one:

My first ratio 😁

Alabama’s past is America’s future. Ever met anyone who brags they voted for George Wallace?

If you’re experimenting with Openclaw and you’re a fan of the ExForce books, you can tell your bot to refer to sub-agents as sub-minds for a little bit of fun.

I’ve been experimenting with OpenClaw (formerly Clawdbot and Moltbot) and tonight gave Katelyn access to chat with it. It was Katelyn’s first chatbot experience. They spent 10-15min needing out about game of thrones. It was cute.

We had the most miserable experience at hibachi last night. It was like eating in a freezer. My food was getting cold faster than I could eat it. And not just room temperature but like it was coming out of the fridge cold.

Alabama road treatment

Hey @wilwheaton.net! When you come to Huntsville for the pop culture convention in April, you should bring your cDc book- I have a sticker for it, as well as some cult of the dead cow swag for you!

It’s unfortunate that the officially promoted 2600 group on Facebook is run by right wing admin. I don’t know if he’s specifically a Trumper but I’ve independently confirmed he’s an asshole.

What's the difference between most of us and Donald Trump? When someone screams "pedophile protector," most of us know it's not directed at us.

Reposting with alt text and a gentle reminder that it's easy to add alt text to images these days and very helpful for many users. (The alt text doesn't exactly match per image because the 2 middle images have too much text, but I added all the remaining text to the final image, so it works)

Who played “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” better? Clapton Or Prince

We need at least one impeachment this presidential term, even if it’s doomed in the senate. Candidate and incumbent dems need that as campaign material to say, “See? We tried to remove the threat but the GOP chose to keep him which allowed ________ to happen.”

“But what do you expect Democrats to doo-hooo?” 1) Refuse to fund this criminal government anymore. 2) EVERY one of them call to abolish ICE (and bonus, DHS). No more “they need training” shit. Promise prosecutions. 3) EVERY one of them call for Trump’s impeachment, relentlessly, EVERY day.

Powell came out absolutely fůggīn SWINGING.

DOJ is still in violation of the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Every country is now an extradition country if they want you bad enough. Used to be we just assassinated world leaders. I’m not sure if this is a step up or lateral.

If this was the execution of a court issued arrest warrant: 1. Who made the arrest? 2. Was he Mirandized? 3. What was the military’s role? 4. Where is he being held? 5. When is the arraignment? 6. Who is serving as his attorney?

Now do Putin and Netanyahu.
