Airport retailers are the reason we still can't take liquids through security. It's fully a conspiracy to get us to buy more expensive drinks behind security.

Some people have misunderstood this.

We literally saw how Claude itself, coded by Claude, turns one API call into a DOS of thousands upon thousands of API calls done in the sloppiest fucking way possible.

This postmortem shows Bluesky vibecoded a function to DOS itself, in a similarly stupid way.

I've seen comments on other websites saying this is a good use of AI because typesetting is just grunt work.

No it isn't! There is a lot of skill and craft to good typesetting and this is aiming to take jobs from people to automate what should be a human process!

This sucks!

you ever go back to edit your resume and go "yeah, no, that layoff hurt me deeply and personally" looking at the absolutely ADHD way you tried to stress how impactful the work you did was by just massively infodumping in your bullets? 🥲

--anyway, the ADHD demon decided we need to redo it tonight

a screenshot of an item card called "ten gallon hat" which looks like a cowboy hat. the description says: the ten gallon - once per day when held upside down while complaining about thirst, the hat fills with 10 gallons of water

we're off to a desert world with dinosaurs tonight, and i was given this by our patron when i said i'd need a sunhat

listen, i'm not gonna complain, but fae mommy has some real interesting stuff in her theatre backroom

a screenshot of a discord conversation where the first person says "i had to put this somewhere visible so i didn't forget it, but what a field i chose" paired with a screenshot from a roll20 character sheet that just shows the field personality trait with the text "Resistant to Lightning". the second person in the thread replies "is that because of a grounded personality?" someone else added a laughing emoji. the first person replies with an emoji of a drum with a cymbal next to it, indicating a rimshot

tonight in tabletop: we have managed to meet two whole sessions in a row, which has broken a yearlong streak, and i'm looking at my sheet which is a wreck and i had to leave notes for myself so i remembered my stats

but seriously, could i have picked a less-awkward place 😂

my party's got jokes tho

Screenshot of Lord of the Rings. The main character says "All right, then. Keep your secrets."

i have been excitedly waiting for this glory for a long time now

This is Marty. He played the role of Bruiser in a college production of "Legally Blonde" and nailed every line. Was confused when people were impressed though. What, like it's hard? 14/10 (IG: sirbaldwinandmarty)

Some days in marathon I lose everything, repeatedly.

But some days in marathon I'm desperately trying to bring gear on runs to make room in my vault and unfortunately everything keeps going really well so I keep ending up with *more* shit to cram in

\o////

Considering Shirahama's relationship with the fandom and how much she encourages them, it's great that she got an adaptation so attentive that Coco's first time putting on her outfit is lowkey a cosplay guide. Creating replicas for the studio (and making oomf wear them) was clearly worth it

The most bad-ass rebuttal from Tite Kubo, the author of Bleach.

Kier, is that you??

I felt this intensely with my Bungie folks when everything happened. Moving away kind of made it worse - I'd rather hear how they're doing even if it's heading about work, but the work is also all-encompassing. Blegh.

All that said, if you would want to game soon, I'd be delighted to catch up 💜

This is Rex. He found a missing child in 12 minutes on his first tracking mission. "He’s kind of a triple threat," his handler said. He's trained as a therapy dog, explosive detection canine, and missing person tracker. When the girl was safe, Rex shifted to comfort mode. 14/10 (IG: arapahoeso)

They are so, SO desperate for people to resub. PLEASE don't resub your Nitro everyone. Props if you aren't already subbed, props if you were subbed and you unsub right now. NOTHING changes unless a company FEARS for their bottom line. Feel free to use Discord still, but don't give them a penny. 💖

A screenshot from the game House of Hikmah, where the character Ibn Sina says: "We can't remove grief. Only cut away what coils around it. Guilt, fear, regret."

A screenshot from the game House of Hikmah, where the character Ibn Sina says: "Let the light in, Maya. Not to erase sorrow, but to make space so it stops shadowing everything else."

Finished playing House of Hikmah tonight. Really thought it was a beautiful time, with a meaningful message. (click to reveal applied for those who don't want any spoilers)

I had some issues with a number of bugs I ran into, but found the experience worthy and worth working around.

Happy #NationalPetDay ~! 🐾✨

Here’s Izzy distracting me with her cuteness for long enough that I almost got blown up in #TheOccultist ( by @daloar.com ) 💀 lmao

Don’t forget to pause your horror games folks 😮‍💨

To whatever insidious agent at Coca-Cola decided that Bodyarmor drinks should also join the "buy in bulk or else" mass coupons, and are probably about to jack the price up to ridiculous amounts....

Stop. Get help. Stop creating artificial scarcity 'deals' like "buy 3 get 3"

What's wrong with BOGO

Lmao I remember a supervisor telling me this and then I did internal training on managing contractors and it said explicitly that contractors cost 2/3rds what a full time person was. It’s not complicated at all. Full time, unions, pensions, everything that’s been stolen from the working class.

cute red panda for the weekend

some days you just have to come home and demand that your friends stream a show for you, like a baby bird screeching for sustenance

(ngl the "right now, your job is beach" brain hack is the only way I've been able to convince myself I'm allowed to rest while being on the job hunt)

Even people with full time jobs have breaks

You can't do this all day every day.

When you went out, it's because your job was beach. You did excellently at losing yourself in the bookstore. Gold star.

okay but literally i do this by keeping all of my old laptops effectively as storage devices, and sometimes end up digging them out like "hey i need to review that old log, actually--"

YOU'RE NOT ALONE
