I'm a dyed in the wood hard leftist - but this is the kind of dickhead government interference move Democrats get up to that nobody wants and everyone is tired of.

Did you know it costs nothing to wishlist up and coming indie games? It builds those creators up, then dashes their hopes most expertly when no one converts 😶
Don’t worry, you can now just tell the AI to build your whole UI for you. It kinda works and that’s good enough for upper management to sign off 🫡
This won’t actually work either, by the way. The system has pretty extensive duplicate account detection and will shut down any attempt at a new account almost immediately.
AI made nearly every part of a good PC too expensive to afford, but now you can make up the difference in quality from all the hardware you're excluded from using a shitty slop filter
I'm not especially fond of AI but I do use it here and there for various reasons, one of which being to compare how the major vendors are doing. GPT is the extra punchable kid. Claude is the really cool bro you like to kick back with, and is super confidently wrong about everything.
I've been developing a really robust hatred of Gmail these days. It's mostly around the search, which has become so fuzzy and ambitious about finding matches that it's become nearly worthless.
This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t
The absolutely iconic Marshall 'full stack' of two 4x12 cabinets and a big amp head was originally created for Pete Townshend of The Who, and is perhaps one of the most well-known sights in rock and roll. So, I dunno, it's somehow just disappointing to learn that this is his full touring rig today.
Capital D Dems don't have a concept of normal, they just have "what the Rs want but like, 20% more liberal". So with the window dragged several hundred miles in one direction ... sigh.
I’m still using DuckDuckGo but I don’t know why, I fucking hate this thing. I really need to try, I don’t know, Brave search or anything else.
I like apps that are continually asking me to enable their push notifications. Sure I didn’t do it the first hundred times, but maybe if we push the banner now it’ll work!
Good gos they’ve made the Windows post-update OOBE rehash even more fucking obnoxious. It tries to sell me 365 - which I already FUCKING OWN - and repeatedly asks to change my settings.
Facebook app actually decided fuck you, you’re not allowed to hide the Reels tab anymore. The hidden option is grayed out when I hit the drop down.
I have many thoughts, but I’ll start with a simple one: how do I build to Android NDK with these, and who can I ask for help when it invariably explodes? CMake may be painful but at least it’s well documented and supported.
As much as CMake absolutely infuriates me in a hundred different ways, I have to concede it is at least a real functional build system that is fairly complete. This is unlike MSBuild, which is like a parody of a build system meant to mock those foolish enough to depend on it.
So are the capital D Democrats doing anything yet or
I’m management, and we are not venture funded. I can’t take the credit, my cofounder has been the one sharp enough to make this work, but I’m extremely happy where we’ve wound up and how we’ve gotten here.
Honestly, my life in startup land is proving to be much more stable than most of my friends working at large established companies that can supposedly afford to think long term.
Fuck generative AI and all the game developers using it, btw
I finally traded in my iPhone 12, haven’t felt compelled to upgrade at any point but the carrier promotion was solid and I was tired of Lightning cables. Five generations seems to be a nice sweet spot for feeling like a worthwhile upgrade.
The stock pickups were unbelievably dark, practically no high end at all. On a 7 especially, you need good high end to cut through and keep things clear. This just sounded like mud.
It plays way better than it has any right to. The stock active pickups are truly awful, I swapped in a set of Duncan JB/Jazz Rails. And restringing it threatened to drive me to madness, but maybe it gets easier.
“I see one is missing a rear wing, did they make contact into T1? I’m concerned the papaya rules were not respected by their previous drivers.”
As I'm coming up on 1000 hours on Hitman World of Assassination, I could really use a new game with the same general vibe. Meaning it's not overly dependent on precision or reaction times, more planning oriented. But not an outright puzzle game. Accepting suggestions.
Well. Parenthood is quite the new adventure I’ve inflicted upon myself.
Should probably clarify I am not the one admitted to said hospital room.
