Is Autumn here yet? Keen to give Summer the boot.

Huge thanks to @jay.bsky.team (CEO Bluesky) for mentioning @flashes.blue in your conversation with @maribel-wadsworth.bsky.social! It really means a lot! 🫶 The whole video is definitely worth a watch, everyone!

According to The Age (An Australian Publication) businesses going insolvent has surged 24% in my neck of the woods in 2024. Economic times have been tough in Australia these last few years battling inflation. I'm very, very thankful and grateful I am not one of those businesses.

Social media's role in enabling "influencers" to spread misinformation and disinformation is making people dumber. 10-15 second video bites in particular.

It's really not worth getting into silly arguments with people sometimes. Especially those who can't be reasoned with. All you succeed in doing is waste time and energy you could have used for something else more worth while.

Your current President really is the worst.

Sheryl Crowe is a freaking champ.

Severance performance review: Mr Drummond: "Uses too many big words" Mr Milchick: “Well, perchance, I may colloquially employ …” Mr Drummond: "Anti-deflections will be heard after the lunch break"

Severence got it bang on with how absurdly petty companies can be with performance reviews. It's comical to watch. I really empathize with Mr Milchick.

Okay, looks like @playstation.com is back up. Down for around 20 hours or so and only a very short, brief update from them at the end of the whole debacle. No explanation what it was, what happened, or whether they were hacked. Very suss. Badly handled.

Welp. Today's been a total write off. Now 10pm, still can't re-download my PS5 games or purchase new ones onto my newly acquired 2TB SSD expansion because of this @playstation.com network outage. And they haven't been giving updates so god knows whats going on. Feels like they've been hacked.

So I purchased 2 TB of SSD expansion for my @playstation.com PS5..... and of course the Playstation Network is down. Of course it is lol. The timing. Dang nammit. Got games to re-download and other games to buy.

Happy 1st Birthday to @bsky.app ! I came in a few months before they did away with invites. What an experience it's been watching this platform grow. Bluesky has just gotten better and better. Their team has done a remarkable job. Thank you for making this a better place.

It’s funny that long after @bsky.app has had custom feeds you can share, threads suddenly says hey good news! we have this thing called custom, shareable feeds! “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery”

Finally! Galactus AS Galactus

Steve Jobs said it best. He was talking about consulting but this applies to a lot of things. He said you have to really own something, and take responsibility for it, and develop scar tissue using it over time yourself to be able to really know it and recommend it to someone else.

If you want to start a business because you don't want to work anymore, that is the absolute wrong reason to start a business. Starting one means you'll work more than you ever have before. The point of starting one, is so you can control the narrative of your working life.

A true sign of how less horrible Bkuesky is to Threads. I posted the same post about video AI a few days ago. Every AI bro come out at'ing me with rude, unwelcomed replies. Here....not a peep. Thank you Bkuesky community. You're on the level ♥️🫶🏻

Got access to Sora AI video generator everyone keeps raving on about. I tried it once, it got one end of a table's legs wrong on the first go. Hard pass. The more of this AI "art" I see, the more I want to support original artists & creatives. A.I generated images and video just looks terrible.

Wednesday: I send an email to someone "Hi, hope you're having a great Tuesday" And yes, I hit send before I clocked that. God. Dammit.

Either I need glasses or Ive been spending too much time staring at a computer screen.

Seeing the US shut down of Tik Tok roll out as we speak. Was never a fan of the app to be honest, so I'm not sorry to see it go.

Seeing so many losing their homes from these devestating LA fires it's heart breaking. Please look out for one another, and when they tell you to evacuate, evacuate. Thinking of you all 💔

There are simply not enough hours in the day (uh.... and night?) to do all the things I want to do. Where's a cloning machine when you want one.

I.T roles can sometimes attract people who are incredibly skilled and very good at what they do, but really suck when it comes to people skills. Always treat people the way you like to be treated. Kindness, patience, respect, understanding.

Happy new year! 🎉

It's nice to set goals, but just remember the new year is only a thing because we created the idea of calendars, with a start and end to each year. In reality, and in nature, time knows not of calendars. It's just a continuous road. A journey that has plenty of wins and loses.

Rest in peace Jimmy Carter.

Ugh. Anyone else gettiny shady, shifty, spammy accounts starting to DM you? I had one the other day trying to sway me to adult content, blocked them, and now another one that starts off with that really annoying thing where they ask the question can I ask you a question (with spam following after)

Wait, quitters day is a thing?

Food coma zzZzZ zzzZz

Merry Xmas Blueskyers!
