Funny thing about the American left. The right published a plan for what would happen. Both sides said "this is going to happen if the right wins". And no one thought to make a plan to resist it. And now the left is going "what are we going to do??" Well...you can't say you didn't warn you.

2032 asteroid impact is up to 3%. I am liking this trend line!

@georgetakei.bsky.social And here we see Dr. Doom making sure that Spider-Man knows who you are. Best give some respect to Sulu!!

Dragon Prince spoilers. So, star elves cannot die? Then what the fuck is Aaravos so upset about his daughter for???

Last night I got a flat tire. I pulled into a service station to change it. After a while two Hispanic guys came in and helped. I offered them $50 for helping, but they refused saying "God will pay [them]". Plenty of white folks ignored me. But yeah, let's kick THESE guys out of the country.

"This LLM is so stupid! I did hundreds of corrections on the code I asked for and it still didn't get it right!" Yeah...that is by design. You are training it because it is giving you bad answers and using you to eliminate the errors. Enjoy training your replacement for free. Epic self-own.

So, my ad free Hulu, which I pay for, is going to have ads. This is a "clarification" from Hulu. Not a policy change...no no no, not a bait and switch. CLEARLY I misunderstood. The second I see an ad I will be cancelling.

I was doing a coin toss and as a joke called "edge". The coin landed and rolled up against a chair leg, still standing. I now retire from all coin toss games since I have peaked.

I have people in my life who are autistic. They have never done a salute like that. Just sayin.

When TikTok gets shut down in he US it is unlikely that its users will go to Twitter or Facebook. So let's give them a home and be nice to them. In other news, VPN companies have seen a record number of new subscribers. But I am sure that is just a coincidence.

Twilight of the Gods was pretty solid. I didn't much care for the representation of any of the gods except Odin, but that one was SO GOOD.

The number of articles I am seeing about people who left the USA for a better life is kind of remarkable. With rare exceptions, they are almost always positive stories. There was one where they didn't like, but only because they missed people they knew. Just something to think about.

When did making a clickbait headline saying "XYZ maybe happened" and then filling the article with screenshots of random people commenting about it on X become "news"? No wonder we are all idiots.

@kumail.bsky.social I just want to say that I love you, but my friends hate you. Every time someone has a birthday I just sing "Happy birthday! Thank you very much!" until they ask me to leave. Which is probably for the best because they get to avoid the cobra v mongoose show.

Insurance companies use AI to deny claims, and care providers are looking into AI systems to appeal denials. We have reached "robots fighting robots" in the worst possible way.

And this? This right here is why I am done with FB. They get not one more view.

Boy, the Honey browser extension controversy is very interesting. It's another case of "this is what they are doing" being said years ago and people only caring NOW. The class action lawsuit seems like damage control too, to exclude the people who peddled it.

Is it me, or does watching the procession for Jimmy Carter make you feel like you are watching a procession for what America once was?

So...the 5090 is going to have a TDP of 575 watts. WHAT? That is insane. I guess water cooling will be the norm, with massive rads. Because the 4090 has a TDP of 450 watts and is a pain to cool. I will reserve judgement until people actually do some tests, but on paper it seems a bit much.

Magnus and Nepo agree to a tie in blitz championship. I think I am in the minority when I say I am fine with them. Much as everyone wants a winner, you can't FORCE people to play. It was basically a double forfeit - and what happens then? This is on FIDE for bad rules, and worse enforcement.

It is 2025, and I had someone argue with me that transubstantiation is real, and scientists are making it up. I explained how the experiment works and how he can do it himself, and he refused to hear it because he "knows his faith". I hate this year already.

Look man, right now I am just happy that this game has a quit button...because I am stuck on something but I'll be darned if I can see what. Or maybe I am moving, and I just can't tell.

After 7 seasons, Dragon Prince ended on a cliffhanger. They had 4 seasons knowing they were ending the show...and they chose not to. I loved that show, but I am out.

So NOW it's ok to use private email servers? Cool cool cool cool cool cool cool cool cool cool cool cool.

Apparently, we can't stop school shootings, so maybe we should try something else. Hey kids - if you shoot up your classroom everyone will hate you. Shoot up a board room though, and people will canonize you. Just food for thought.

I watched the interview with the guy who says he killed JFK. Interesting guy. Not sure I believe him, but I have no reason to not.
