I still posit shoving the entire internet through an LLM isn’t a great use case, but if it’s on the Internet they probably know about it :/

Slightly miffed ragdoll cat outside the bathroom down the hall with his back mostly turned towards me/the camera.

Slightly miffed ragdoll cat outside the bathroom down the hall with his back mostly turned towards me/the camera.

Normally I shower in the evening, but this time I showered first thing before interacting with the cat.

When I finally opened up the door to the now steamy bathroom instead of his usual greetings he just looked like a pastor had stumbled on an orgy and then ran down the hall and stayed there.

The only truly disappointing part of the new Mario movie is the post credit scene.

The revealed princess absolutely should’ve shouted “HI I’M DAISY!” like she does everytime you switched to her in Mario Kart Double Dash.

That bark is absolutely seared into my memory as a vocal stim.

everything is a UI problem, except memory allocation, which is witchcraft

Unlike PlayBoy magazines, nobody is going to the Mario Movie for the story.

Trying to claw back some Perforce licenses and deleting a user that has over 1500 shelves. But despite P4Admin in theory supporting mass delete, it barfs on like the first shelf and I have to go manually delete them.

But screw that, made a script to do it, but damn that’s still annoying.

Normally I tell design to leave implementation details to the engineers and just tell us what you want.

Not-quite-random is one of the exceptions where I will beg you
to tell me exactly what you’re thinking under the covers.

Is it the chili peppers that are red, or is “red hot” the entire adjective as a unit?

I found my old LiveJournal from my early 20s and Jesus I was a whiny manchild. Too smart, yet not emotionally smart at all. Quite the combo.

Pretty sure I would get fed up with my younger self very quickly lol.

I may have accidentally offed B’Ellana, Harry, Seven, Tuvok, and Neelix (but saved Tuvix!).

Turns out some scenarios definitely get harder when their television versions got dead.

I finished a run of Voyager Into the Unknown and it was fun!

It’s relatively simple as far as this sort of game goes; not too many resources to track, and I may have killed half my named officers, and got killed by a borg cube once (thanks for the “restart sector” option!), but I got them home!

The new Voyager game accidentally made me stay up far too late.

But the comparisons to FTL are loose at best, frankly. It’s far closer to IXION than FTL.

lol, just accidentally told our IT rep who’s here late “have a long weekend”. Not even a good long weekend, just a long weekend. Thankfully she thought it was funny.

I loved that board game as a kid. Tickles me everytime I see it referenced!

I'm SO mad, I got kidnapped by evil scientists and put in the evil science facility where they give you psychic powers and wings and stuff but I was in the control group so nothing happened

Yeah Peter is definitely wary of singing. Never quite sure what to make of it

Things that give my cat Peter mild concern:
* Whale noises
* Making the bed
* Dancing
* Vacuum (downgraded from absolute betrayal!)

"Your pets may not necessarily love it when you kiss and hug them"

Yeah well I may not necessarily love picking up poop so I guess we're all gonna have to make some sacrifices.

No one remembers history.

When IBM and Microsoft partnered on OS/2, IBM got upset when a MS employee rewrote some code to be smaller and more efficient because “negative lines of code!”.

Measure the wrong thing and you’ll get the wrong behavior. Incentives matter.
