Happy hatch day to Rizzo. He's 3 years old, we've had him for 1.5 years. Been a rescue project as he had a poor first year, but he's blossomed into a crazy little guy.

Starting a support group for people who played the original, "Berzerk!"-inspired "Castle Wolfenstein" on Commodore64 and were traumatized by the SS guy bursting into the room and shouting "WAS IST DAS?!!!" I remembered that today and it almost broke my nervous system. Real heads know.

For me, it was Cyber Sled followed by Star Wars Arcade. But top 2 is still pretty good given all the amazing games out there.

My 4yo's new fave book is Dr Seuss "If I Ran The Zoo" and whilst reading it, I came across this page. Could it be the coining of the word "Nerd?" YES. IT IS.

Ten million posts about the state of AI and they’re all just iterations on a Shel Silverstein poem written when the Atari 400 cost half as much as a used car

People excited about using alt + 0150 for an em dash, and here I am using Ctrl + NumPad hyphen for en dash and Ctrl + Alt + minus for em dash. Even quicker!

"em dashes are a sign that something was written by AI" you are simply jealous that i've memorized that I can hold alt and press 0151 on the numpad to produce an em dash whenever i desire. look: —. it's beautiful. i'll even do it again: —

I just got a new credit card and the expiration date is “30” and it took me a sec and then I realized it was 2030 and all of my teeth fell out and I can be found rocking on the porch under a quilt.

I just saw a good example of what I was talking about with chatgpt being a crackpot generating machine. A guy had started Wheeler's Spacetime Physics, and had a problem on page 2. Wheeler expressed a square root as a power of 1/2. √a = a^1/2. This is basic algebra, not physics.

I have three types of TTRPG characters: 1. Goody Two-Shoes new to adventuring and in over their head. 2. Moody archer out for vengeance, isn't always going to do the right thing. 3. Lumbering unarmed Luxodon fighter who grapples with his trunk, doesn't take crap from anyone, soft spot for kids.

This is just making me think about the teacher who realized a student plagiarized a paper on 1984 because he replaced everything with synonyms, to the point of referring to “Large Sibling”

"college students use AI for their work and therefore that's a point in AI's favor" college students do lots of goofy shit they probably shouldn't that they'll only realize was a mistake later on but thank you for wasting my time

This rocks. It seems to me like these techniques would benefit students (or anyone) with or without the AI component.

Still pretty shocked that Skype was best for gaming with my family, who don't use headphones. Never heard the game's audio over Skype. Hear the double echo over Discord and Steam. Maybe there are some more tricks to try with those two, but Skype just worked.
