Luddites weren't anti-tech. They were against technology being used by the capitalist class to capture wealth at the expense of the worker. I am a Luddite, and a tech enthusiast. They're not in opposition. I want technology that makes MY life better, not that sells my life piecemeal to corps.

No one has ever LinkedIn this hard. I am CRINE.

Oh my god, Copilot is allowed to create and fix issues on Microsoft github repos and it goes exactly as you'd have imagined. Try going into any of these PRs commits to see poor Microsoft engineers try to coerce Copilot into doing literally anything right. www.reddit.com/r/Experience...

"It's a mixture of teen hormones and Minovsky particles. Kids on the street are calling it 'kira-kira.' Prep school student takes one hit and next thing you know she's hanging out with some homeless guy in an old maintenance tunnel and saying she wishes she was a jellyfish."

I got the hook-up.

My reaction upon jumping into the Pacific Ocean in Japan for the first time, compared to the waters off the Washington/Oregon coast.

2 of my favorite memories of Japan are craft beer related. 1 being my friend coming up starry eyed at a small summer festival in Akita holding a hefeweizen-like beer from a local brewery saying "They have real beer over there." This was a week onto our first trip.

The 'very time consuming but fun' Gundam SEED Original DVD vs HD Remaster Blu-ray comparison project continues! Phase 2. If 100+ people like (i.e. care for!) this post, I'll move onto Phase 3, i.e. episode 3. Diving into the thread! Some spoilers of course.👇

But seriously, I have a stack of Panasonic DMP-BD70V's if anyone really wants that VHS experience.
