I remain hopeful that someday the KOTOR remake will land because it remains my white whale in this department give me Revan in glorious HD

When I was in Belarus a few years ago, I met a guy who loved Americana and excitedly told me about taking his family on vacation to the USA, including various national parks. Just getting the tourist visa was a huge ordeal, but worth it to him. Lots of people like that. We should WELCOME them FFS

OK - pie discourse - best pie story: In 2016, we were living in Andover, in the UK. My wife was assigned as an exchange officer at the Army Air Corps base at Middle Wallop (yes, really).* The US Army has a tradition: senior leaders, in dress uniform, serve junior troops Thanksgiving dinner. /1

Is this cheese grater conscious? Many users feel they're talking to a real person. Scientists say it's time to consider whether they're onto something.

Nvidia unveiled their new logo today.

Reminded of the Goat & Sauerkraut on a Hawaiian Bun that a Meat Manager made as an experiment. It was delicious. (Unfortunately, forever tainted by his firing for violating federal labor laws. He edited his people's timecards without approval/permission.)

All the Victorians look like they're trying not to look at her

yes, hello, I would like to place an order for everyone’s funniest stories of holiday food-related family grudges / drama / chaotic incidents / lore I feel like we need this

Seven years ago today, I live tweeted my proposal to my wife! In honor of that, I’m going to repost the proposal so it’s here on Bluesky 🫶🏻

These all sound to me like amazingly thoughtful gifts. I am similarly reminded of gifts I thought perfect for people, who it turns out, would have preferred a gift card that they could regift. Life is chaos, and people are complicated.

Does anyone in Baltimore need (or could use) a 20 lb turkey? Because reasons, we have acquired one, and while we can come up with uses for it, it's A Problem for my allergy issues and if someone needs it more, Sarah is happy to deliver anywhere in Baltimore

it just didn't have the legs 😢

AI is the only technology that can protect us from Tim Allen's breasts

I misread this image so badly that I can only really hope to illustrate what I saw. ( Also a good excuse for an #art study )

🧐 ...to be used with poultry only 😏 Please tell me there was a lawsuit.

“Lift yourself out of poverty by saving money” “NO not like THAT”

I have never felt so much envy after a random google search

Incredible story of tracking down the real human behind AI slop stories, by @nickhunebrown.bsky.social

Q+D, graphic design is my passion, etc etc

dolly could have been a golden girl: thread

There is a post circulating on Bluesky encouraging the moving of a frozen turkey straight into a pot of hot oil. We are combating this misinformation the best way we know how - through the power of dance music.

Literally EVERY parent should ban Roblox

This is an incredibly important step, and delaying the necessary paperwork is deeply negligent. I got shipped a recalled product once (after the immediate watch period). It had a newer Expiration and a different Lot Code, so it slipped through. The register stop is the only reason we caught it.

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.

A curlew sandpiper at Bald Hill Beach from last year. These migratory birds returned recently from Siberia. Listed as critically endangered, though we seem to have good numbers here in South Australia. There is concern about food supply given the current toxic algal bloom but so far, so good.

This is a really shitty contract Scott rightfully refused to sign!

Thread but also just don't tell Paypal anything. No "what is this for" you both know what it's for. If you send a friend some money for dinner or something and you say "for friday night", even odds they get banned as a sex worker.

I can’t believe you made me do this

This person predicted ai "girlfriends" beautifully and brutally.

Friendly reminder to anyone who is gonna be around babies this holiday season to please make sure your TDAP is up to date!

sorry for leaving this one out

The party that promised "free speech on campus" has made sure there can be no free speech on campuses.

Earlier today, I was notified that someone was at my door. This is who it was:

This is why mechanical computers like the fire control computers in submarines had “fuse gears” made of softer metal that would break first if something bound up and were located in easy-to-access locations for repair.

8675309 is prime, and so is 8675311, so if you ever need a middlin'-large pair of adjacent primes to test your cryptographic suite, all you need is a 1980s earworm and a +2 and you're all set.

Kash Patel's personal firing of the Pride flag-displaying employee was always absurd and unconstitutional, so I'm glad David Maltinsky is suing, but, wait. It was a flag FLOWN BY THE FBI that was given to him BY THE FBI?! Come on. Complaint: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Pretty sure we've banned more for less.

*Naomi Wolf voice but srs* No! No!!

This is an amazing game. It's ESPECIALLY amazing if you like tinkering with design. (If you're not art inclined, you can pull from others who are, and focus on the other parts of the business.) I'm almost at 100 hours of playtime 😅.

Grammarian and Errorist are at it again! 🖊️

Ew. Off the wishlist.

Like it or not this technology is here to stay and if you don’t use it you’ll fall behind in your industry

I don't know who needs this reminder but don't forget you started a load of laundry a few hours ago and it needs to go into the dryer. (It was me; I forgot)

Boss: "Do you want the good news or the bad news first?" Me: "Bad. So the good news will soften it." B: "It's all bad news, actually. We had a last minute call-out, so we need you to pull double duty." Me: 😑😑😑😑😑
