Just because I’m not in favour of murdering people doesn’t mean I’m upset this shitbag is no longer stealing oxygen. Happy accident, as it were. I doubt most indies miss this particular douche nozzle.

Here now, credit where it’s due: His grave marker doubles as an excellent public urinal.

Well, I don’t want to see vandalism. I don’t want to see ads, either, but you’ve got to buy where the sales are these days. I’m sure not rich enough to be choosey.

Haven’t seen any vandalized ones yet, but I’m Canadian. Maybe we’re too polite.

I really hope I’m not right about this

You are. The upside is that SSDs and GPUs could be affordable again. The downside is I’ll probably be unemployed and trying to steal groceries from Walmart and it won’t matter.

The awash in entertainment thing is real. My wife has a Youtube addiction I can’t seem to pull her away from. She gets home from work, TV comes on, and she watches shit on YT until bedtime now. Then she turns on the TV in the bedroom and falls asleep to YT. She’s watching some pretty braindead stuff like a channel where British schoolboys are being fed American fast food. Try to get her to go for a walk with me and she’s glued to the idiot box. She also watches videos that are clipped togther, obviously by AI.

I hate all of this.

I never thought I’d root for Iran, ever, in my entire life. Hat tip to Trump for making that happen. Oi.

I have a friend who is a professor of linguistics. He only accepts handwritten assignments now. His students are probably copying off their screens by hand, but what can you do? I don’t understand spending all that $$$ on education then not bothering to learn.

I’m seeing widespread acceptance and adoption around me IRL. On Reddit it is more accepted than not, seems t be the same smaller bunch running around frantically downvoting. Can’t say I lose much sleep over it.

I’m starting a few Fediverse only photo challenges. Don’t know if I’ll fall on my face or not, but if you don’t try you won’t ever get anywhere.
