The first step for me was recognizing that procrastinating created more work for me in the future. Also, having those swords of Damocles hanging over my head robbed me of my mental health.

Claude is my coding mentor. Wouldn’t want to work without it.

One of the men repeatedly made a “call me” gesture with his hand, then took his fedora off and literally tipped it at her…

It’s assholes like this that make dudes in fedoras look bad. This and -you know- the hats themselves.

The best protest is to stop moderating. Lie flat. Let the subreddit go to shit.

Ha ha. Only serious.

How about some pre-transhuman solarpunk? I recommend my favorite book, Walkaway by Cory Doctorow. It’s about the birth pangs of a post scarcity society. Absolutely brilliant.

WW3 is more likely to happen if Russia wins. If we show our bellies to Russia, China would move on Taiwan. If Ukraine wins, we kill two birds with one drone.

Philanthropy is PR for billionaires. If we taxed them, we would have a social safety net and no need for their pet projects.

…Miriam Adelson, the **widow **of the casino magnate Sheldon Adelson…

Wait! Sheldon Adelson is dead!? happydance.gif

I thought I was the only one who’s seen Scavenger’s Reign. I haven’t heard much talk about it. Damn shame because it’s amazing.

Six more months until season 2. Counting down the days.

Scavengers Reign. If you like The Expanse, you might be into sci-fi animated with a seriously weird style. And it’s one season with the story tied up in a bow at the end.

Well what’s the point of self driving if you can’t have a wank on the drive home?

I played a lot of Elite Dangerous until I realized there was not much to do besides “do the profitable thing over and over before it gets nerfed.” And by the time Squadrons came out, I also ran out of fucks to give.

The only game I really liked in VR was Euro Truck Simulator 2 which wasn’t even a VR game.

HTC Vive. Not necessarily this specific tech itself, but VR gaming more broadly. My friend and I were ginning ourselves up for years before it came out. I dropped a lot of money on a gaming rig for it. And when I put the googles on… I fucking hated it. I didn’t like standing and gaming. I didn’t like being so isolated from everyone else in the house. And the games were glorified tech demos slapped together with unity assets. By the time Half Life Alex came out, I had no more fucks to give.

The porn was fun though.

So, yeah. What’s a good Linux distro for stable diffusion and programming?

Not dad joke. Far too adult for a child to understand and actually funny.

My dog barks some. Therefore nuke Gaza.

Use your words. Tell her you don’t want to and why.
